Yep, badly formatted tasks. All mine are erroring out too.

It looks as if orbit-fitting tasks in the new data feed (04_03_2024 in the task name) also have the problem that the previous feed (03_29_2024) had. (And like the previous data-set, the task names don't have "orbit_fitting" in them this time, which might hint at what the previous problem was!)

I still have some retries for earlier dates and those are viable.

Cheers - Al.

How can I prevent getting the bad WUs ?

Something I can add in the app_config?

Just disable the Orbit-fitting app in your Project preferences here on the website. Just do the regular N-body app.

Since you looked over the data set naming did you notice the data sets have a 4 day cycle (excluding weekends)?

Einstein longs are about 3 days. Switched to them and will check back Wednesday.

This task is from a previous batch of workunits (de_nbody_orbit_fitting_03_21_2024_v186_*) from before the introduction of this bug.

By the date in the task name, that one was from an earlier run with good formatting. There are a few straggler resends from earlier that still process fine with the Orbit Fitting app.

But 90% of the Orbit Fitting tasks from the past two days are bad. If you choose to still run them, then your production is likely to take the same 90% hit from all the bad tasks relative to the few good tasks.

The _04_03_2024 named series are the bad ones. Eventually the _04_03_2024 series will error process out after four failure counts.

[Edit 1]
I'm re-enabling them now to see if the bad ones are still coming through or see if the they have error counted out

[Edit 2]
Evidently still coming through so toggling them off again.

Yes, Orbit Fitting batches from before the problematic ones are not yet completed. My own results list contains ~2,000 results from good Orbit Fitting batches, from tasks which I received during the past 5 days including today. (That's alongside ~10,000 error results from tasks from the bad Orbit Fitting batch(es).)

I for one keep running them, and take measures to avoid a hit to my production. :-) Would of course be better if administration would retract the bad batch(es), carefully.

Sorry for the bad tasks. I have notified the person in charge of these tasks and they should fix this issue soon.

I added MW to a spare client. Just to get them get them an abort. Some do appear OK still.

Still getting plenty of the bad tasks from 04_03. The only ones that run have orbit_fitting in the name

Good: de_nbody_orbit_fitting_03_21_2024_v186_OCS__data__6_1709197135_1941068_1

I realized that pushing thru till they get 4 errors, then retired, was probably best and kept running.

The nasty thing about this is the BOINC client stalls after so many bad WU's, I need to do a manual update to Milkyway@home then BOINC client wants to d/l the master file table before reporting the finished WU's and getting a new batch.
