I checked the result file, the output file is indeed of that size and it is correct! Compressed it goes down to 1.2 MB, more reasonable I would say.
We have to wait until the server guys set the result to be compressed!

1. The home page (http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/genehome/index.php) is clearly not aligned with the menu bar

2. That 'About us' icon represents the RSS feed... No sense!

3. I think that it would be better to drop all the icons... they are not used anymore!

4. When you go to a page the 'header' (the one with the images slide) goes away... the interface is not kept along all the pages. I guess that it was related because of a sub-menu. I think that the sub-menu could be integrate in the page, for example on the left side.

5. CNR is "Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche", not "Centro Nazionale delle Ricerche" (http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/genehome/about-us.php)

6. http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/genehome/client.php look at the bottom! The text goes out of the height of the body page and overlap with the footer.

7. 'About Us !(Our people ,Our Teams)' should be re-write as follows: 'About Us! (Our people, Our Teams)'. The space goes after the comma, open parenthesis or exclamation mark, not before!


Hope this helps in adjusting the web-site before the 'pre-opening' when a bunch of external people will visit our web-site.

I saw yesterday evening the same thing! Also my results were about 5 MB!
I will check and see if after zipping (since boinc automatically zip all the results before sending them) the size will decrease.

We haven't yet tried our project with different version of the boinc client.
We tried to test our project in different operating system versions (I think that the 'communication' group will update the minimum system requirements soon) and we would exploit the 'pre-opening' to test the project a bit deeper.

Anyway, I don't think that the client version is the problem, as I already answered maybe is the validator that is not working!

Please, let us know if you encounter other problems and thanks for participating! :)

Hi, the 'stderr.txt' that you reported is ok! There is nothing there that says that there was errors.
I guess that the problem is related to the fact that the guys from the 'server' group haven't yet write the validator.

Cheers

I was wondering: the URL to use in the "pre-opening by invitation" will be
http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test
or will be changed in something like
http://gene.disi.unitn.it/geneathome
?

Wouldn't be better, since the idea is that TN-Grid groups all the BOINC projects, to have something like
http://tngrid.disi.unitn.it
and then specialise the URL with the project of interest, which will be
http://tngrid.disi.unitn.it/geneathome
instead of the current URL?

About the score compute by the client, we implement an md5 summary. So, now the file
"score.txt"
looks like
"1.234567e9 4da1733d0560c8f8cc9606b5e585711d"
.
We will explain to the server how to compute the md5 summary in order to prevent tampering.

in random order (no implicit priority)

application:
- test checkpoints and progress bar
I will add things or modify this post when there will be the need

Both tested and working!

Now the Linux 32 bit is working! :)
I tested it on Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.2.0-56

We were thinking that could be an option to give to each client a fixed number of points for each tile computed. This will give more points to the clients that have more processes running in parallel (i.e. a CPU that run 4 gene@home projects on 4 cores will give 4 * the-number-of-tiles-executed).

Of course we can discuss about this on friday (22 Nov) during the client meeting.
