1) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Scheduler Disabled? (Message 5046) Posted 22 Jan 2010 by zombie67 [MM] Post: 1) On the front page, it shows "Scheduler disabled". Any ETA for a fix? 2) Also, on the detail page, it shows every box as GREEN. Even though the Scheduler box says "Disabled". That box should be a red color based on how other projects do it.

3) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : minirosetta v1.47 bug thread (Message 4436) Posted 19 Dec 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Yes, I understand that the credit system changed back to pure benchmark. I noticed that too. But the unique method that used to be used here (and still used on Rosetta) is also benchmark based. It just averages with all the previous claims for that particular test. So in theory, as long as we don't mess with the benchmarks, the awarded credits should be about the same either way. Edit: I'm guessing the method changed back to the default when the server upgrade happened.
4) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : minirosetta v1.47 bug thread (Message 4432) Posted 19 Dec 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: I have been doing both Ralph and Rosetta for quite some time now (was even number 1 in Ralph at one time), and I have noticed on Ralph over the last number of batch jobs that the Granted Credit equals the Claimed Credit and seems based on the Boinc Benchmark system. Why has the Credit system that Rosetta changed to and Ralph was also changed to 6 months to a year ago now reverting back to Benchmark ??? Based on this I am no longer getting due value for the time I spend crunching a work unit. How so? Your machines claim based on benchmarks. If your benchmarks are not tampered with, then you are getting exactly what you are due. You can't just look at run time. Some machines are faster than others. So a fast machine running 4 hours will have done more work than a slower machine running 4 hours. So the faster machine should be awarded more credits, even though the crunch time is equal.

6) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Message from server: platform \'x86_64-apple-darwin\' not found (Message 4344) Posted 17 Nov 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: If you have 1) 64 bit processor (any core 2 based CPU, including the Xeons) and 2) leopard and 3) 6.2.something+ BOINC client then BOINC sees that you machine is 64 bit, and asks for 64 bit apps. The problem is that the current RALPH BOINC server is so ancient, it doesn't know what 'x86_64-apple-darwin' is. RALPH needs to update their servers. Not only for this issue, but for security issues too.

9) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3674) Posted 27 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Thanks for the info! Was this ever a problem for the Mac app? Or only windows?
10) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3671) Posted 25 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Wow. A week now, and still no response from the project...at all. It's odd that they ask for our participation, yet do not participate themselves. Alpha testing is a two-way street.
11) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3665) Posted 23 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: well that should answer your first question, posted by the staff, in this topic. and well the second question im not aware of, so maybe you should some OSX users. I am on the list, and I read it the day it was posted. It answers neither question. The changes that DA made to BOINC were basically a work around, so that the flaw in the RALPH app would not longer cause problems with BOINC. I'm asking if the fix to the RALPH app has been made yet.
12) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3662) Posted 22 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: I would still appreciate answers from the project, rather than guessing. Has this been fixed in the mini tasks and/or application yet? Was this ever a problem with OSX version?
13) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3658) Posted 20 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: wich is what we are helping by uploading data about crashes. Of course, but that doesn't answer the questions.
14) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3655) Posted 20 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Right. 5.10.38 is not a fix to the problem. It's a work-around. The problem is with the application, which is where it needs to be fixed.
15) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Rosetta min 1.03 (Message 3648) Posted 18 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: The minirosetta app in Ralph unzipped an archive into its slot directory. This archive (accidentally) included some .svn directories (Subversion stuff) whose contents were flagged as read-only. Has this been fixed in the mini tasks and/or application yet? Was this ever a problem with OSX version?

17) Message boards : Current tests : Rosetta Mimi 1.03 locking up Boinc on windows (Message 3640) Posted 17 Jan 2008 by zombie67 [MM] Post: One thing is not clear to me... Is this really a windows-only problem? If we are talking about read-only files unable to be deleted, doesn't that hit all OS?
18) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : bug report for version 5.81 (Message 3462) Posted 14 Nov 2007 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Failed after 2 seconds. Both wing men wailed as well. http://ralph.bakerlab.org/result.php?resultid=660508 I would use BBCode to make the link clickable, but doing so prevents it from getting past the SPAM filter. The new spam filter functionality needs to be revised, or removed.
19) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Bug Reports for Ralph PHP Update to BOINC version 6.1.0 (Message 3460) Posted 13 Nov 2007 by zombie67 [MM] Post: It would seem that BBCode URL tags are now inoperative. Every time I attempt to use one, the message gets classified as SPAM and refuses to post. ==Mike It has to do with the ratio of text to URL. Try appending a bunch of garbage text to your post, and the URL should make it through the SPAM filter. Odd that you need to add SPAM to get past the SPAM filter... =;^)
