Just noticed that on the last one I reported it was sent to three folks and all three got bitten by the watch-dog. Here's another from today:
WU 180623

We tried the "continuous work for ralph" for a week or so, but our turnaround time for testing new WUs was just too slow! It would take about 24 hours for computers to free up, accept new WUs, and give back initial results -- we want the tunaround time to be less than 12 hours. Hope that's a reasonable explanation!

My advice is to crunch for both rosetta@home and ralph, if you haven't already... the good news is that we're setting up the debugging stuff over on rosetta@home, so we'll be hopefully be getting a steady stream of callstacks from whatever errors are going on over there too!

id love to run 5.24, but i am getting "no work from project".
i thought there was supposed to be work available at any time now? :)
server status page is all green, it only shows no WUs ready to send.

I make a new host, venue school , connect to network every second , running *only* ralph@home

*This one should download only 1 job at a time, crunch and upload, report
and then download the next -:) and on and on

However my WUs are failing on them !

May be a host setup problem ?
-or- just bad WUs ?

Exit status -1073741684 (0xffffffffc000008c)

http://ralph.bakerlab.org/result.php?resultid=190262

any help appreciated -> this host owns a virtual CPU
and had crunched simap and einstein , with no problems -:)

my host specs
Average upload rate 0.53 KB/sec
Average download rate 9.59 KB/sec
Average turnaround time 0 days

Also was able to meet TANPAKU deadline of 1 hour

Thanks

Found the problem, and fixed it. was a corrupted NTFS virtual FileSystem

Now the problem is another

Outcome Client error
Client state Downloading
Exit status -186 (0xffffffffffffff46


I looked at the download progress,
and before all files of the WU has finished downloading,
the job started to run, and imediatelly got this error.

I am believing on a ralph server problem, or my ISP had some glitch with my Link
Anyway the job (WU) should not start to run before all files downloaded

Now,
I'll wait there is work again ... Xlab (backup project)
is downloading / crunching / uploading 100% OK ;)

I select Xlab to "backup project" cause their WUs crunch in 9 minutes
so, when there is work, immediattely the vpc switch to ralph.

Thanks

1)I don't know if this was not mentioned early, but the progres counting don't work well.
6 min ... 1.020%
24 min ... 1.041% (8:21:56 to completion)
40 min ... 1.042% (8:38:22 to completion)
1:09:30 ... completion
(I saw this also with 5.22)

2)More memory need?
