Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : Requesting 0 sec of work

Beside the no work send problems, my GPUGRID BOINC 6.4.5 has stopped requesting any new work. It does simply nothing when was running all the night and when I request work by hand, it requests 0 seconds of work. | |

Up your resource share to something like 200 (assuming you have 100 and below elsewhere) ... the problem is that BOINC Manager does not distinguish between resource used by the GPU and CPUs so ... | |

After that my only suggestion is editing the master file to reset the long term debts ... If this becomes necessary I suggest not editing. Using your favourite search engine find and download a program called BoincDV. Read the download page and the readme file included. Extract the program to the folder suggested. Shut down all Boinc processes (check in task manager) then run BoincDV. That should be safer than editing providing no Boinc process is running! I suspect most if not all the results ready to send at the moment are for PS3 users - there is no way to tell but lots of gpu users seem to be posting about problems. You may get lucky if a cancelled unit or time expired unit becomes available when you manually update. Phoneman1 | |

There is supposed to be a command line option to make the BOINC command line client reset the long term debts, but I have never had success getting it to work on OS-X, probably just me ... but ... | |

An easier fix to make BOINC request work: suspend all CPU projects. | |

An easier fix to make BOINC request work: suspend all CPU projects. That does not always work ... has not worked for me for an hour now ... :( And I am asking got 65K seconds work ... sigh ... I guess I will have to wait and see if the fetch will work when this task is closer to completion ... | |

An easier fix to make BOINC request work: suspend all CPU projects. When that happens you know it's the server acting up again, possibly no WUs available for NVidia. Should be easy to fix but so so far it hasn't been. | |
