Title: MMX optimized Windows S@H app. download error in app_info.xml
Post by: Kiwit on 01 Dec 2006, 06:52:20 pm

For those of you who have downloaded the lastest MMX optimized Windows S@H app, I have found an error that BOINC displays in messages as file missing.  In the app_info.xml file, the first line that references a file name says ....._Ben-Joe_2.0_B.exe when is should read ......_Ben-Joe_2.0_C.exe.  All other references in the app point to ..._C.exe.  I edited this to the new name and all is working. Although I only have 60% CPU load with this app.

- <app_info>
- <app>
  <name>setiathome_enhanced</name>
  </app>
- <file_info>
  <name>SaH_5.15_KWSN_MMX_Ben-Joe_2.0_B.exe</name> ****This one***
  <executable />
  </file_info>
- <app_version>
  <app_name>setiathome_enhanced</app_name>
  <version_num>512</version_num>
- <file_ref>
  <file_name>SaH_5.15_KWSN_MMX_Ben-Joe_2.0_C.exe</file_name>
  <main_program />

Any ideas in getting 100% load would be cool, as its taking about >8hrs to complete a workunit. my very first WU without this app took 80,000 secs. (22hrs?). see below

Is rev C also the current source package?

I need to check that, not sure, though I think the package that's online is Rev-2.0B.

Some time tonight or tomorrow, maybe. Still awake after another monster day (2x 20h work with 8 hours break in between), but slowly drifting towards coma ;)

Regards,
Simon.
