Posted 4 May 2013 by AMDave Post: Ok, so the videos are from 2011, and Matt may not be the best presenter and the audio sucked quite a bit. However ... I found them to be quite informative in several aspects: You have to have respect for someone who can re-develop an app from scratch without the original code. You can understand the extreme patience required by the BOINC server operator who is applying many arch-based clients and having to recompile the server software to do so - while the server software is breaking for various other reasons. I recon 2011 was a very trying year for Matt and he did well to push through. Now he's got a solid platform and some cracking client apps. Quite the coup, and well deserving of some adulation, I think. Great work, Matt! Thanks for sticking with us. PS - Thanks also to Jeff who has taken some of the load off Matt. Also a noteable effort. |

Problems downloading Stars and Volume files

Posted 11 Nov 2007 by AMDave Post: Installed 5.10.8 on AMD64, RHEL5, 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 I can see the files downloading into the folder ~/BOINC/projects/milkyway.cs.rpi.edu_milkyway astronomy_1.07_i686-pc-linux-gnu parameters_generated_1194765844_83 parameters_generated_1194773034_362 parameters_generated_1194773041_456 parameters_generated_1194802758_61 parameters_generated_1194802761_94 parameters_generated_1194804157_264 parameters_generated_1194804159_288 parameters_generated_1194804163_343 stars.txt volume2.txt But the BOINC Manager says all of the downloads have failed. Some of the files created have a zero file size including stars.txt The message log shows the download is successful. So it looks like they were sent from the server that way. |
