Factors Not Verified

[Matt]

I'm finding that a lot of factors from my fact.txt file are not verified when I upload them to seventeenorbust.com/sieve this means they're not recorded and presumeably offer no benefit to the project. Is there any point in finding these factors if they're not being used? The first 2 factors of my latest range have been not verified by either the large sieve or the sieve page.

I've just realised however, that this comes up when I submit my factors:

Factor table setup returned 1
Test table setup returned 1

What does that mean?

sieve submission page still accepts factors where n<20m.

I presume you are using 991-50m dat.

That's probably why some of your factors (those with 20m<n<50m) are not accepted at the sieve submission page.

And also, that's why we are sending our fact, ect. files to JoeO and VJS. This is a temporary solution untill sieve submission page starts accepting n<50m factors.

They definitely offer significant benefit... in the long term though.

Hope this helps.
