I've started three new separation runs:

de_separation_10_2s_sSgrFreeScale_1
ps_separation_10_2s_sSgrFreeInertia_1
de_separation_11_2s_sSgrFree_1

The first two are old runs, but the search method parameters have been modified to try and reach a faster convergence. The 3rd run is a new search for secondary structures in the Galactic North.

As always, let us know if you see any problems with these!

Looks like two errors in this unit.

Error loading Lua script 'astronomy_parameters.txt': [string "number_parameters: 4..."]:1: '<name>' expected near '4' 
Error reading astronomy parameters from file 'astronomy_parameters.txt'
  Trying old parameters file

"C:\Users\Kyle\AppData\Local\Temp\OCL67E6.tmp.cl", line 232: error: identifier
          "BACKGROUND_PROFILE" is undefined
          if (BACKGROUND_PROFILE == FAST_HERNQUIST)
              ^

1 error detected in the compilation of "C:\Users\Kyle\AppData\Local\Temp\OCL67E6.tmp.cl".

Frontend phase failed compilation.

My HD7870 cards are not running nearly as well as a month ago. I see % utilization on the cards consistently dropping below 100%. Something in the main work algorithm is quite off. They also do not allow the cards to run in overdrive like Seti does.

This is a common error when the client-side application is out of date. Make sure that you are on the latest version.

This looks like a compiler error - are you building a custom app?

This would be a better question for the "Number Crunching" forum.

Sure? I see those lines in every std_err output, also on hosts using the most recent version, i.e. 1.02. Example

I'm building the latest git client and I get the same error.

Hi Matthew,

if you look at my post in Number Crunching http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/forum_thread.php?id=3448&postid=60753

you will see that I am getting nothing but errors on my CPU with these runs. I see that some people, mainly using GPUs, are getting results. I have had no problems with other MW@H runs or with my SETI stuff so I think that the errors are due to the runs themselves not working on my CPU.

I now have about 12 errors and counting. Can you suggest what I should do about this, other than suspending these tasks?

Thanks for your help

John
