Questions and problems :
BOINC 7 not getting tasks
(Message 43569)
Posted 18 Apr 2012 by sTrey Post: FWIW, today the 7.0.25 scheduler running on a Windows XP host wouldn't get new work even when it had fewer tasks than cores. The host runs BOINC 24/7 , has had no problems, was upgraded from 6 to 7 yesterday. Forcing a project update yielded only "not requesting work", no matter how much buffer I requested. I finally reset the (host-specific) buffer settings to their original values, verified the client would still not request work, then restarted the client. It immediately requested work to satisfy the number of available cores. This does not seem right to me, no matter what it needs to learn about run times and estimates. It doesn't appear to be the aforementioned bug, as currently only one BOINC project is allowed to fetch work on this host. |

Posted 25 Jun 2006 by sTrey Post: Hi, Haven't seen the first problem but I've noticed the several-minute-delay also on Windows, on my local machine. This started with 5.4.9, just never got around to reporting it until now. It can be annoying & it's not consistent; sometimes the response is immediate. I've learned to watch the messages tab for the "activity suspended" message before doing whatever I'm trying to do that prompted me to shut down net activity in the first place... |
