There is a new set of particle swarm separation work on the server and I will have another set released shortly. If anyone experiences any issues please let us know...

If you're talking about work of the type "ps_separation_22_3s_noCore1_1349373750_6530_0", then there might be a problem. At least with my host. Nothing but errors. Stderr output includes:

Error loading Lua script 'astronomy_parameters.txt': [string "parameters_version: 0.010000..."]:1: '<name>' expected near '0.010000'
Error reading astronomy parameters from file 'astronomy_parameters.txt'

---

Thank you I am looking into this right now.

A lot of errors, but not on all work units. All errors in first second or two.

I second that! I have the same errors.

---

All of my 'nocore' have errored immediately on start (various Nvidia cards)

---

I have pulled it down. I am working on resolving the issue and reposting. Thank you for the details.


Jeff Thompson

I have pulled it down...

Just an FYI in case there are more out there... I got at least 14 "noCore" WU's after your post at 2000 UTC.

These are the WU which are out in the field and send back after error. They will be resent until the maximum number of errors, I mean five, is reached.
