Would anybody who knows the terminology mind taking a look at my invalid tasks and errors to see why they are happening? I use GRC Pool, so you will need to use the link to my PC at the bottom of text. | |

Sometimes, for a lot of different reasons, the computation ends 'correctly' but the results are not. This is the reason we implement the 'redundancy' feature (one result is marked correct if it is bit-wise identical to another one). | |

So fairly normal. Thank you for your response and all you do for this project! This is my favorite project available on GRC Pool because of the potential to help us better understand the complex subject of genetics. | |

3 failed (and errored) tasks so far on a Ryzen 7 1800x, running Windows 10. | |

3 failed (and errored) tasks so far on a Ryzen 7 1800x, running Windows 10. It could be the segfault error. I see them on my Ryzen 1700 occasionally, but not on my Ryzen 2700. (And my Ryzen 1700 is one of the "fixed" versions, produced after they introduced the fix.) | |

so it does support sse2.A typical Stderr output looks like: <core_client_version>7.16.6</core_client_version>

]]> I am unable to tell what I have done wrong. The non-sse2 app seems to work, but is probably a lot slower than the sse2 version. | |

You are doing nothing wrong: the linux 32 app is compiled having a 'core2' processor target, so is not a 'pure' sse2 pentium4 compatible app ranher it probably ingorporates some newer extensions. I have compiled an sse2 version tdat runs on p4 and should run also on yours if it supports sse2. If not, I compiled also a sse version that sdould run even on pentium IiI. Now I am travelling, I will post tdem on this forum for you before friday ;) | |

Yes, I would like very much for an sse2 app that is compiled to work correctly on my Pentium M powered computer. | |

I have installed the file "pc_pentium4_sse2" and the app_info.xml file, and set the boinc permissions correctly. I changed all instances of gene_pcim to pc_pentium4_sse2 in the file. | TN-Grid Platform | Message from server: Unknown app name in app_info.xml
| TN-Grid Platform | Message from server: Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of gene@home PC-IM. I understand that the syntax in the app_info.xml file needs to be very precise, so I need help to correct my mistake. This is the file I am trying to use, without any success. Where did I go wrong? <app_info>
<app>
<name>pc_pentium4_sse2</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>pc_pentium4_sse2</name>
<executable/>

Instead of going through the hassle of creating a app_info for the new binary, why didn't you just rename the binary to the stock appname? | |

I thought that the client would be able to tell that the new app wasn't the correct app, and would reject it. I have done some experimentation, and have got the new app working, with the app_info.xml file. | |

I have worked with a Seti developer that created the special sauce application. He never changed the application name through a dozen revisions even when the code inside the app completely changed. The original descriptive name of the application bore no resemblance at all to the final application and what it would have been descriptively named. Doesn't affect in the slightest the name you call an app, it is what the code inside does is the important part. | |
