BUG 2 - Missing generation files

If you encounter on of the two errors listed below, please post the information describing in which manner you are running the software.
As I have not been able to reproduce these errors, the flags should give me an idea as to how to reproduce the error first, so that it could be fixed properly.

Error 1
ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 3951} Cannot find structure from previous generation .\handle_1_handle_protein_211_0000022_min.val; find it manually or delete filelist.txt to continue
ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4127} Error during upload: Previous generation missing

Error 2
ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4015} File
.\handle_0_handle_protein_32_0000013_min.val is corrupt, missing or has been tampered with; cannot continue - replace file and start again, or manually delete filelist.txt

If either of these errors occurs, please post the following
- which error you have encountered
- are you running screensaver or client
- what flag settings you have
- with/without DFGUI
- is it a service (Win only)
- what OS you're running on

Stardragon,
If you are hoping to replicate Bug 2, Error 1, What caused this error for me was.... In the middle up uploading generations, I disconnected to the internet or closed out the black uploading window during upload. I can't remeber which but it was that simple. Anyway, hope someone is able to find a fix so I can upload again.

Previous generation missing

Dear collegues,

please, sorry for my bad english,
but i need your help.

When i'm run my DF command-line client for upload results,
I get the following message:

Checking for newer versions...
Uploading fileset 1/26 from last run to server...
Previous generation missing

and client run computing again from 0 (zero).

Please, told me, what i to do to eliminate this???

P.S.:

About my hardware&software:
Dual Apple Macintosh G4 1GGh
OS -- MacOs X 10.2.6 aka Darwin
Command-line client with -qt -if -rt keys

Re: Previous generation missing

Vadim,
It may help to find the exact bug you are having. For example it could be the 910 bug where you get "previous generation missing" but you can still upload. Or it could be bug 2, error 1 or 2.

If you could open up your folding folder and double click on "error.log" Now scroll to the bottom, your error message should be toward the bottom.

Previous generation missing

Ok,

This is last line in my error.log:

ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4127} Error during upload: STATUS 906 GENERIC STRUCTURE ERROR

P.S. Client generate app. 25 buffered sets and... And start from zero to 25... and again... and again to infinity.

This may be fix for your status 906 error. Good luck,

[foldtrajlite] FATAL ERROR: [000.000] Unable to find file handle_protein_5_0000022.val; cannot continue - replace file and start again, or manually delete filelist.txt

I keep seeing this on a box that is rebooted a lot, and has a script to start it when it boots.
switches: -qt -it -rt

OS: OSX 10.2.6
I don't have physical access to the box, only ssh when it happens to be on, which is unpredictable.

I am getting the same problem on RH9

This is what I am getting (RH9):

I think this is a symptom, related to the memory increase usage issue, in that, while you watch Task Manager, the page faults increase as the memory usage does.
Sometimes the memory size doesn't increase and the page faults do not increase, then all of a sudden, page faults start increasing as the memory usage increases.
The client seems to be having an I/O problem... /me shrugs

Sorry for double posting, but I found this thread after the "explained" thread in the main folder.

I too just had this error on a machine that ran fine for days. My other machines are as yet unaffected, but their only commonality is Win2k. (i.e. hardware is significantly different)

I was online for a few hours, waiting for the client to upload "naturally" and when it didn't show ANY progress on the current generation after 2 hours or so I clicked the UPLOAD button in DFGui 3.01. DFGui then said "attempting to stop..." and I went on about my winamp and file-sharing fun. A minute or so later I checked back and DFGui was locked, but the system was fine, so I ended the task and restarted DFgui in the hopes that the client was still running, but it wasn't. Tried again, DFgui failed again. Clicked "recover" and the cli restarted, but wouldn't stop. Hard closed cli and just clicked "upload" in DFgui. Client started and reported prev gen missing error.

Message is pretty straightforward (I removed my username from the filename and replaced with *username*)

ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 3951} Cannot find structure from previous generation .\*username*_0_*username*_protein_136_0000022_min.val; find it manually or delete filelist.txt to continue
ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4127} Error during upload: Previous generation missing

Other than that, just lots of "failed connect" messages, going back for 5 days (the date of install).

Do the "manual upload" instructions need modification for this situation or can I follow them to fix this?

dfGUI is a little mis-leading in that it only watches the .lock file. It says "Client Stopped" when it should say "Lock file removed".
The client can sometimes take up to a few minutes to stop. If you don't watch task manager or the process lists to wait for it to finish and start the client the 2nd time, you get client collisions fighting over the same work, which is not good.

It really has no way to monitor the processes to see if it really stops or not.
YMMV

Hi....
It appears I have problem #1 as well :rolleyes:

ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 3951} Cannot find structure from previous generation .\mx5vdmg5_0_mx5vdmg5_protein_152_0000025_min.val; find it manually or delete filelist.txt to continue
ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4127} Error during upload: Previous generation missing

I was at the machine at the time...... I was uploading data to the server with the DFGUI 3.1 "upload" button, and about 2/3 of the way thru uploading the server timed out and the progam errored

ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 4127} Error during upload: NO RESPONSE FROM SERVER - WILL TRY AGAIN LATER

From that point on I recieve the "Previous generaton missing" error.

Running Client in Quiet mode, Use extra Ram, hidden

I have renamed to filelist.old and the machine has started another set

Hope this helps a little

It took me 1/2 an hour to look through my error log lol... but here is where the trouble seems to start

(I am on win2k with extra ram and quate)

and that last line repeats on all 100 gens :(

Save the directory and restart from scratch, the computer will continue to Fold but you will never be able to upload once that error starts :( It is the same error as seen here.
