I wonder if the bad batch(es) of SCC1 tasks (for MyoD1-C)[1] are clogging up the work array and might be contributing to the problem? I've been seeing a lot of "No work is available" for everything but SCC1, and the "Tasks are committed to other platforms" message, which is presumably SCC1 as it isn't mentioned otherwise! :-)

As it is, the only "new" work I've seen in the last day or more has been retries for ARP1 tasks that have timed out and SCC1 MyoD1-C tasks (which promptly fail!)

On a different note, there's also the matter of many ARP1 work units appearing to be stuck with a quorum but still awaiting validation[2] -- that's a common topic in the ARP1 forum Work Available thread, especially in the last week or so!...

Cheers - Al.

[1] There's a thread about this in the SCC1 forum but I don't know if it's been spotted by WCG; several of us have been expecting the batch(es) for that specific target to be withdrawn :-)

[2] I usually process about a dozen ARP1 tasks a day, yet i have over 80 tasks stuck in "PVal jail" -- some of them have been there so long (with another result also waiting, so it really is "jail") that the "No Reply" tasks have been able to reply days later and still become third (or fourth!) validation candidates! If my small contribution is affected like that, it must be far worse for the heavier hitters :-(

Updates are pointless if they are meaningless. "We're working on it" doesn't do anything other than take away time to post a useless message that could be spent trying to diagnose the issue (I'm still not convinced the tech team knows exactly what they need to do). Not even "it's fixed guys!" or "we're out of beta, WCG is back baby!" holds any value anymore since, time and time again, it's been proven that the project is still on life support.

If you want updates, keep an eye on the community. They'll post messages when WU and errors start flowing again.

If it is any consolation Denis@Home currently has about 70,000 work units available (22:30 UTC).

Time for a new project. But in general BOINC seems to have killed itself off.

Noticed an unusual entry in my event.log today. See following:

This is especially noteworthy as MOST of the current SCC1 WU's are erroring out and SEEMS to be affecting the release of WU's for ALL other tasks. The highlighted entry seems to confirm that assumption:

I return SCC1 WUs that have ERRORS, system not sending me ANY more WU's that might error out again.

This particular computer system has EIGHT idle processes and EITHER there really are NO AVAILABLE WU's -OR- the system has deemed my computers as a FAILURE RISK and has throttled back WU's that get released to me in a preprogrammed attempt to minimize my impact on reliable data.

All because the data set for several SCC1 WU''s appear to have been constructed with formatting errors, as pointed out by another volunteer. I had sent an email with representative ERRORED out SCC1 data but have not received your reply. Email still down?

The lack of WU throughput is unfortunate from the perspective of the scientists' anticipating returns on the current batches, yes, and adds to the frustration of the volunteers as well!

ETA: have removed SCC1 from active processing until issues have been resolved.
