I have 11 inconclusive results. I have no questions on 3, BUT the other 8 are from between Jan 26 and Feb 1. That seems to be a long time to wait for somebody to wait for another person to send their results. When I click on the task number I get a page that says, “Unable to handle request”. At the bottom of the page of the task number there is a “Stderr output”. (Task numbers are 875110, 846937, 660169, 464607, 464608, 393878, 323517, 1309927. All are “Separation v1.46 windows_x86_64.) I consider myself semi-literate with the programs that I use and not even illiterate with the internal workings of the machine.

My 2 questions are: 1) what is “Stderr output; and 2) at what point would an inclusive result become invalid or error?

Thanks

I think these are from the server outage where we had to wipe the system of all WUs. Any WUs that people had at that time will remain inconclusive forever until we go through and reset the database ( which is not likely to happen in the near future).

Sorry that they're annoying and confusing. Unfortunately, the fix is a lot of work for very little payoff at the moment.

Thanks. I can see that it is not time feasible.
