Got stuck and continued for 4 hours; usually tasks are 1 hour. Error is crash.

As usual, between 80% and 90% of validate error(after a correct run) on placestub_alt_denovo_*

I hope validate errors will resolve with 2.06 version.....

I am new to this project and I must say that I am far from impressed so far... The bulk of the work units I have run so far have completed fine only to be tagged as VALIDATE ERROR ...How can you justify doing valid work only to have it rejected by the server ??

This site is designed to find and rectify any problems before the work units are sent to R@H. Don't expect to have all the work units working properly. If they do then it is a bonus!

Well, the "validate error" is a well-known problem.
This is a beta project, so it's normal to have problems with wu
But, i'm agree with you, this problems it's annoying....

I checked some validate errors and I found that happens in WUs that has been suspended by the BOINC manager (6.10.36) to let other WUs start.
This is a common problem that I see in the recent versions (6.X). The BOINC manager doesn’t let finish the WU, but suspended it to start another of the same project.
I have 10 RALPH WUs that has been suspended at 60-80% (taking a lot of memory and making the computer to be really slow and the BOINC manager to crash sometimes) and then, when resumed, they finished rapidly and give validate error.
In the other PC with version 5.10.45 of the BOINC manager, I haven't such a problem and no validate error (on a total of 27 WUs).

Someone other can confirm that?

I have only 6.10.36 clients, but now i download an older version and i try it
