It is the start of a new academic year, so perhaps some new student projects will come along.

Mmmm, no

It does not really do any harm whilst sitting there idle.

Servers consume electricity power for NOTHING

Please, turn off the server.
It's a waste of time and electrical power.

It comes alive when they need us, at certain times of the school year.
Halloween may see the waking of the dead.


Nope, seems still dead

And then remove line <p_vm_extensions_disabled> from client_state.xml


I open the file xml and there is:
<p_vm_extensions_disabled>0</p_vm_extensions_disabled>

Maybe you changed your BIOS? You may have to reenable VT-x.

Virtualization is enabled (i run VirtualBox machine without problems)
I cannot understand why the site says that "CPU does not have hardware virtualization support"
From Intel site:

Intel® Virtualization Technology ‡ YES
Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O ‡ No
Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT) ‡ YES

Server status page says that there are over 7700 wus in queue, but my pc:
26/06/2021 18:12:09 | nanoHUB_at_home | Requesting new tasks for CPU
26/06/2021 18:12:11 | nanoHUB_at_home | Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks
26/06/2021 18:12:11 | nanoHUB_at_home | No tasks sent


Is a scheduler problem??

My guess is to run NanoHub you need to rollback to Virtual Box 5.2.44 (last update in version 5).
Check VBox manager (after restarting computer or restarting the VBox service) and see if you have hundreds of invalid VM's built up.


I've done the rollback to 5.2.44 (and i install the extension pack).
I'll see if it's better.
11) Message boards : Number crunching : 2 machines, thousands of WU's, 10 credit in 36 hours. What's wrong? (Message 696)
Posted 17 Apr 2021 by [VENETO] boboviz
Post:
Summary:
I thought it'd be nice to get my 100k credit but the drive thrashing causes too much wear on the equipment, especially since the WU's are only a few minutes long. Only getting 40 valid WU's out of 660 for a total of 10 (TEN) credits in 18 hours of trying is just ridiculous return for my effort..
I'm going to finish maintenance then limit this project to 1 WU at a time and 0 resource share and see if things improve by Tuesday.


Seems that they have some works to do on the app...

Same here, a LOT of "EXIT_TIME_LIMITE_EXCEEDED" erros.
It's a problem of VirtualBox??

They need a plan for reducing their error rate also. It is practically unusable.

But seems that "Nonexistent_Admin" is realy non existent

It would be nice to get some Project badges here too though!!

It would be nice to see admins on forum too.

Post:
Why not to open a "science" section on the forum?
It's a tipical section of boinc projects site


Other requests, if possible:
- a more specific description of what we are crunching. Nanohub has a LOT of simulation tools, so what are we doing?
- if there will be publications thanks to boinc volunteers, it's a good idea to write it on papers


No news??

The project has updated their app, I thought.

It now uses:
vboxwrapper_26203_windows_x86_64.exe
... which (from my testing) seems to be compatible with Oracle VirtualBox 6.1.x just fine.


I'll try

With the latest version of Windows 10 (2004), VirtualBox 5.1.x cannot start with this message:

Please, fix these errors.
I like this project and i want to contribute, but it's difficult with all these problems
