Message 45272 - Posted: 24 Dec 2010, 16:24:46 UTC

So I'm only running the GPU app and using an app_info to tweak how it runs.

Now since about 7:30 I've been getting:

Milkyway@home Message from server: No work sent
Milkyway@home Message from server: Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a version of MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation.

Is it that there is no work other than n-body work, or did the server just randomly decide not to like me?

Thanks in advance!

It is out of everything but N-Body currently.

My 5830 is doing DNetc until we get work again.

If you want to get rid of this message add the following to your app_info:

<app>
<name>milkyway_nbody</name>
<user_friendly_name>MilkyWay@Home nbody Simulation</user_friendly_name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>milkyway_nbody_0.21_windows_x86_64__sse2.exe</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>milkyway_nbody</app_name>
<version_num>21</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>milkyway_nbody_0.21_windows_x86_64__sse2.exe</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>

Maybe you need to download the app from the download-section. If you do not want to run this app uncheck the 'use CPU' checkbox in your settings.

Thanks Arkayn,

That's what I started to think when I saw I'd sometimes get tasks on a request. I myself am doing Collatz as that's my backup project.


@Werkstatt
I have the CPU tasks turned off, but it seems that if there is only N-Body work I get that error no matter what.

I see where this message is two years old but I am also getting this message on my machine with two basic cuda cards (no double precision).

Is there a linux version of these apps and where is the download section that you referred to.

Thanks for any help that you can provide.

All of Milkyway's GPU apps require double precision.

Mike,

Thanks for the clarification on the GPUs.

Wow. I must have gotten cross-threaded with another message thread that I was reading or someone's join up date.

Regards,
Steve
