Surprised that nobody has commented on all the tasks that have had -255 errors across all my hosts and gpus for the past several days.
----------------------------------------5 hosts - 13 gpus So obviously nothing wrong with any of my hardware as they run all my other projects just fine. Badly formatted tasks I guess.

I've just checked my history, and I'm showing just one single -255 error at the moment. That was on an Intel HD 4600 iGPU running Windows.
----------------------------------------Over the last couple of weeks, I've been returning between 300 and 600 tasks per day, mostly using NVidia GTX 16xx cards under both Linux and Windows. I don't see your problem here. (edit - that's one error against 719 valid results, to give an idea of scale and ratio) [Edit 1 times, last edit by Richard Haselgrove at Jan 12, 2022 4:51:09 PM] |

Keith,
I run 500-600 OPNG WUs daily and there are no errors in my last 1000 returns. I don't think the problem is badly formatted tasks. |

Keith,
Out of interest, what happened to the wingmen on the failed tasks??? For what it's worth, I've not seen any issues here [yet, says he...] but then I've only got 1 GPU in each of two (Linux) machines, and only my 1660Ti is trying to do two OPNG at a time (no real benefit from trying two at a time with a 1050Ti!...) The tasks over the last couple of days are no longer dominated by larger ligands with lots of branches - this means more jobs per task; since the beginning of 11th January I've not seen a single task with less than 60 jobs, and the average number of jobs per task has climbed from below 20 to over 80! I've noticed that my task completion monitor is finding it harder to get the information it needs from client_state.xml within the time limits I've set - this suggests a resource choke-point within local BOINC infrastructure (and that's on a 3700X which only has the 1660Ti and never runs more than 10 or 11 BOINC tasks at once!) If you're still having issues, post up some task or workunit examples and maybe we can have a dig for issues... Cheers - Al. |

On this website, go up to "My Contribution", "Results". Look for error, click on work unit, does other computers on the same work unit got error as well?
Click on "Error" on your task, what does this show? If other tasks on same work unit works fine, but your tasks on all your computers all errors, then this can possibly be wrong configuration, missing packages, missing libraries, bad driver install, or if copied a possibly corrupt file/data to all your computers. OPNG: 84 Valid, 4 pending, 1 in progress. Works fine for me on both AMD and NVidia. Ryzen 3900x, 32GB, Win10, AMD 5500 XT 8GB, NVidia GT 1030 Ryzen 2700x, 32GB, Win10, AMD RX 550 4GB |

Keith, I was getting code 255 on my xps 15 laptop with old Intel Graphics 530 and GTX 960M for every GPU task. Both with almost no run time on the task. I did some updates to Ubuntu and rebooted and they went away. Silly question, but have you rebooted? ;)

Yes, almost all my errored tasks have at least one wingman who also errored the task.
----------------------------------------All the host are updated daily for the security updates and have been rebooted at least once every day. All my error tasks have this at the beginning of the stderr.txt output. <core_client_version>7.17.0</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> process exited with code 255 (0xff, -1)</message> <stderr_txt> I only run single tasks on any card. https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/results/186574616/log https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/results/186578178/log https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/results/186578130/log https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/results/186577541/log https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/results/186576514/log I have no clue why my tasks are all failing. I have done nothing different to any of my hosts from the last time I got work and the tasks were validating. The only thing that has changed was the incremental kernel security updates. I am also running gpugrid python, milkyway separation and einstein gamma-ray tasks on all the gpus and they all run fine. Only one gpu task per project on any card.

Richard, what the heck is a -255 error? I looked at the old BOINC error list page and it is not one of the mentioned ones.
