Welcome back to the neighborhood sorry for making you eat dust for that long ;) You got a lil something in your teeth :p

&^%(*&^($(^*$(^(#^($^()#^()^@(#^%(*^$%(*#^@(*^$ &( :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

All 4 of my ****ing computers since the client was switched have been crunching uslessly. All my structures are corrupted on all 4 comps. :mad:
Lost a lot of points. **** it!

I've been poking around and found this work around, make a bat file "note pad and save as up.bat in your distribfold folder (hope most of us know this :) ) " and then run up.bat

del foldtrajlite.lock
.\foldtrajlite -f protein -n native -qf -df -it -rf -p0 -g0 -ut
del receipt.txt
up


Also deleting autoupdate.cfg and replacing foldtrajlite.exe with a old copy " if you have one handy" then start foldit.bat with -u t works too. this has worked for me on the systems I have here but I have alot of systems sperad all over town. On a up note for our team if we can hold in there alot of people are dropping in other teams due to this. :rolleyes:

Doesn't work for me.

Jaydee what does yours do?

it took mine afew hours to get all mine uploaded , maybe only upload 2 or 3 uploaded then restarted but if you check, the number of buffered gens will have gone down 2 or 3, another note all the ones I used this on are now uploading fine, seems to be a problem in the receipt.txt file with the ip so the bat file deletes the file every time it restarts. oh and when its done uploading you have to restart with your normal foldit.bat cuse up.bat only uploads.

Nothing. I even started fresh and now it will not upload. Got 31 gens buffered and no error message to show why it topped uploading. It worked fine for a while, even got some points on the board then it just stopped.

ah, I found this: the ones I deleted autoupdate.cfg and replaced with the old client on are uploading now by them selves "there running the old client with the new protein, lol they wont download the the new client" the ones I only use the bat file on r not uploading unless I stop and use the upload up.bat, there running the new client. Hope this helps :shrug:

I am not going to trouble shoot their client. If it works it works if it don't I don't use it.

I run DF and it isn't uploading either, I got 60 gens buffered. I hope I don't get them corrupted like some people with bad luck are :(

some of mine are holding afew and the uploading by themselfs but most I'm manualy uploading with the bat file, seems to work I have the most points so far for our team since the change over. ;)

Wow, what a time to have spent a couple days up in the hills dirt-biking. Two computers weren't running the standard foldit script and didn't update, the disk-less box filled it's ramdisk and crashed, the other two aren't uploading squat. Yeesh! Despite all the angry posts over at the official DF forum, it does looks like they are getting the bugs worked out.

Boli, we miss you! Avoid the xtreme schisms, come back home.

What happened to Blackeagle? He completely disappeared from the stats.

I still can't upload my buffered gens...to make it worse my client is folding like 5 times slower now. It takes freaking 10 minutes now to complete one gen! And that's after I upgraded my 512MB ram to 1GB! :mad:

er 522k points bufferd however they wont upload becase there is a 910 error in my errorlog during the upload any ideas

Starting foldtrajlite built Apr 22 2004
Wed Apr 28 22:30:58 2004 ERROR: [002.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4527} Warning during upload: STATUS 910 MISSING PREVIOUS OR ILLEGAL GENERATION

Apr 22? You need to start over. The server was reset on the 23rd. I lost 800,000 points that day.

or you can use the purge comand and make it dump the bad ones, I had about 300 when that happened to me and I purged about 30 till it got past the bad ones, saved 270 :D

the thing is i had a batch file with the purgeupload files but i lost were it was lol
what is the syntax that i should put in the bat file

Don't purge them. Upload them anyways because Howard is going to try to award lost points for 910s. He can't do that if you don't upload them.

Hey guys,

I know this thread is all about folding but I havent read it lately.

I got a problem. I have been running this new protien/update ever since it came out and for some reason its not counting any work I do. I have like at least TEN 24hr straight folding days and nothing to show for it. The program loads fine, no errors, net is always on, etc. Its wierd.

Is this happening to more people?

Capn., what does progress.txt (in your DF folder) say? Buffered gens? And how 'bout the error.log? If you have a reciept.txt, what's it say?

The main-office had some problem with a cgi-script at the beginning of the latest protein, likely the source of your problems.

I noticed my work done was being updated at the start of the new protien. My best energy was changing. But for the longest time now my work/energy havent changed.

----------------------

This is currently whats in my "progress.txt"

Building structure 11 generation 149
89 until next generation
1 generations buffered
Best Energy so far: 59.737

----------------------

Ahh...here we go..."error.log" is a massive file (200K text file!) full of things like:

Thu Apr 22 15:03:03 2004 ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4933} Error during upload: NO RESPONSE FROM SERVER - WILL TRY AGAIN LATER

Thu Apr 22 21:41:07 2004 ERROR: [002.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4881} Warning during upload: STATUS 910 MISSING PREVIOUS OR ILLEGAL GENERATION

Thu Apr 29 04:10:57 2004 ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 5015} Error during upload: No response or unable to connect to server

----------------------

I have a gut feeling I am gonna loose all this work done :cry:


EDIT: no "reciept.txt" file BTW

damn...been readin back into this thread some now...seems im not alone in my troubles :(

should I just delete everything and redownload and install fresh (using the same handle ID of course) ?

Yeah, those 910 errors are bad news. On the plus side, Howard, the project director, has said that in a week or two, he'll add to people's points to give credit for some of the generations lost to problems.

Clean install is good plan.

Damnit...if I'd have known I would have done it days ago :mad:
I took a look over the official folding forum...I couldn't find an "official" fix.
I'm gonna delete/reinstall now... :(

Thx for the help Groth.

Delete/reinstall is the offical fix. Even a completely unattended machine should have had the badness worked through within a day or two of the server problem's solution. That it hasn't turned out that way implies that something got corrupted in your DF install. :shrug:

I guess so. All I have ever done is just run DF and let it do it's thing (update itself, upload work, etc)

Its working fine again now.
