No connections to projects because of this issue.
Well, seems BOINC doesn't need my computing power anymore, ok.

EDIT: BTW, why nothing in BOINC notices about this issue?
They so verbose with different junk, but when REALLY user attention required they are silent! WTF!


Are you still having problems with this on any projects ?

LHC has updated the server https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=5441&postid=42767#42767
Rosetta has also fixed the issue https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=14006
I'm only aware of one other affected project. https://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/forum_thread.php?id=460

Are there still any projects that are having problems ?

Ah well, it seems that Eric isn't going to do anything about the RAC issue.


Eric has updated it today, news in the SETI@home FB group.

Eric Korpela.
I've changed the RAC threshold on the public forums to 0 and the total credit threshold to 100.


He posted about 4 hours ago, sorry, I've been busy with the expired BOINC certificate bug, I didn't have time to post about RAC earlier.

I've seen that Android error before when trying to install a 32bit APK over a newer 64bit version of the same app.

I think many APKs now contain both 32bit and 64bit code, but the 64bit version will be installed in preference to 32.

Google require that all new apps uploaded to Google Play store after 1 August 2019 must support 64bit.

Thanks Jord.
I have joined GitHub, but I haven't posted there yet.
I don't fully understand how GitHub works, is there a Welcome area for New Users ?
I've just found https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/

I've managed to edit and save the BOINC APK, using APK Editor version 1.8.20, but when I try to install my modified APK, I get a warning that the app exists.

I still have a few WCG tasks in progress, and 1 other LHC, apart from the stuck reports.
I'm going to wait until these are finished before I try again.

I'm hoping that LHC can fix things on the server, or BOINC can release an official update for Android, before my LHC results expire.

Am I reading correctly that there is no fix for my Android phone? This worked great on my windows machine.

Thanks


No fix unless your phone is rooted which would enable you to edit the relevant file.


I'm currently looking into a way of editing the BOINC APK file. If I succeed, I will post a workaround on this forum.

[Edit]
I have managed to open the APK file using a free editor, but it can't save changes, only view the file.
Looks like you need to pay for an editor if you want to modify the file.

Rosetta have fixed the issue on the server side, LHC still have the problem, I'm not sure about any other affected projects.

The Android app, for all it's other problems, does actually manage to do this !

I currently run various BOINC projects on 2 systems, an 8 core 14" screen Android tablet, and a Windows 10, 10" screen, convertible netbook, with 4 cores.

On both systems, I occasionally change the number of Cores in use, according to other priorities.
I find it easier to select 2, 4, 6, or 8 on the Android device, than 25, 50, 75 or 100 on Windows
I usually restrict the Windows system to 75% with the Intel GPU in use too.

7.16.5 is still available on APKpure website and app, it fixes one of those bugs, but has some other different bugs.

Importantly, 7.16.5 still has the Certificate error.

I've just posted another request for Eric K in the SETI@home Facebook group.
It appears that Eric is more active on Facebook than the SETI forums at the moment, so hopefully he will see that message soon.

I have just edited this certificate on Windows 10 64 bit.

I had to move the file to Desktop, after closing BOINC, before I was able to Save the file after editing.

When I tried to save in the original directory, I didn't have the correct permissions.

After saving, I moved the file back to C:\Prrogram Files\BOINC successfully. Restarted BOINC, Stuck tasks have now Reported successfully.

Well, I haven't been able to post on Beta, since my RAC dropped to 2.


I visited Beta recently, there are still >2200 Beta Tasks In Progress, including 1 AstroPulse.

Does anyone know if these are needed to complete the final complete data set ?

SETI Beta is currently running.

I just found your phone specs here https://www.techradar.com/uk/reviews/blackview-bv7000-pro
It appears that you have 64 GB of internal storage, how much have you made available to BOINC ?


I left default settings: at least 0,1 GB free


That's almost certainly not enough !

Try allowing BOINC to use 3-4 GB maximum, but keep At Least 2 GB free

I have 26GB free out on 54, no SD.
Anyway, prelude messages to fatal crash are always connected with battery or power problems, like ' Connect your charger to restart' (when it's connected) or Computation will restart whit 30% battery level (now 95%).


I have seen similar errors recently on this tablet :-(

Definitely try running Rosetta 1 task at a time

I've recently returned to Rosetta too https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/show_user.php?userid=150379 with mixed results !

What "Target Runtime" are you currently using ?

I would probably set 2 Hours max in https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/prefs.php?subset=project and No New Tasks until you find stable settings, that should allow you to meet your current task deadlines without having to abort tasks.

After that try minimum work fetch, on 2 cores, and see how that goes.
Don't forget to update Rosetta after changing web preferences

Yes, it's correct.
Last installation just worked with Rosetta, anyway.


Your phone has 8 cores, but I would recommend trying Rosetta on 1 or 2 only, because Rosetta is very resourse intensive

How much free internal storage do you have (and external SD if you have it) ?

Rosetta appears to make use of some fairly large temporary files. Officially Android doesn't make use of Swap or Page files, but I'm not an expert on that, it's possible that it's trying to use more space than you have allocated to BOINC

It should be, thanks

I will take a look at both, and get back to you shortly

https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/results.php?hostid=4140916 appears to be yours, is that correct ?

https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/results.php?hostid=10643148 seems to be yours at LHC
