Just a protein change. The new client is still in beta test.
The news section says something about a protein change - although we're testing a new algorithm.
So here my question:
Will there be an protein or a client update? An update of both doesn't seem senseful to me.
Just a protein change. The new client is still in beta test.
Mine is hanging trying to get new protein...
I've stuck the -i f switch in there for awhile until I figure out what's going on...
Some say it's the beta client
* Most recent client version released February 25, 2003
** Most recent screensaver version released February 25, 2003
Most recent daemon version released January 31, 2003
Mine were hung for a while..
(can't communicate with server... or some such message in error.log)
but now they are uploading results fine.... However, dfGUI is still showing 96 for the protien size, so I am not updated????

i got the beta when i downloaded "distribfold-current-win9x.zip"
i can't hit the beta site "beta.distribfold.org"
Use the right tool for the right job!
2 unix boxes show 89AA is the protein.
I saw "Server down for protein switchover" or something like that.
Use the -i f switch and it will keep crunching
same here - when downloading the client from the main download page I get the new protein but the beta client...looks like folding is off on a few machines for the momentOriginally posted by FoBoT

edit- oh well, looks like the screensaver is OK so I'll run that on the few until the Text client download is fixed...

When I run the new text client, I've this error :
I'm running WinXP on a AMD 1400Mhz.ERROR: [000.000] {taskapi.c, line 586} Invalid argument: -s
FATAL ERROR: [000.000] {foldtrajlite2.c, line 5190} Missing/Invalid arguments. For usage, run program, with no arguments.
Hum, sorry, I have found the problem !
It's a bug with Distributed Folding GUY 2.1 when you configure more than 5000 units for upload frequency.
But the server is always down... I can't run the client ^^
Anyone a good mirror for me, cause it's going real slow here in Holland ?!?!?!

shutdown your computer, disable your interconnection, then start back up. If you want DF to continue crunching. You can re-connect your internet after it is running and it will keep crunching and saving results until the server is back.

If you are seeing it complain because it doesn't like the -s switch, that sounds like you have the beta client. If you still had the old client you could run with a -if switch and it won't look for the server, you just have to remove that switch later in order to upload.Originally posted by Onyx

I upload the Text client on my FTP Here
The beta client ??? I've download the new client 5 minutes ago...
There are rumours that the distribfold-current-win9x.zip actually contains the new protein but the beta client. I know the -s switch doesn't work on the beta program.Originally posted by Onyx

If you see this
Does this mean it's a beta?
I think this new client broke DFGUI
That is a sure-fire sign of the beta.Originally posted by IronBits

yes, that is the beta and dfGUI no worky with the betaOriginally posted by IronBits

i just downloaded it again from a different DSL line and i got the same 6622177 byte file
i emailed howard, but he must have gone home for the day
anybody have his cell phone number?!!?!?
Use the right tool for the right job!
darn. That's what I downloaded from your ftp site.
Still downloading the client from the official site, let ya know what I get there.
yepperz, that's the Beta!
(If you manually d/l'd the update, you got the beta)
pronounced: The Wrong File!

If you manually download the windows version you get the beta. If you replace the foldtrajlite.exe in the new download with the foldtrajlite.exe in your current folder everything works.
The beta one is 2848 KB, the one that you want is 1316 KB.
When you start it up, it says
(500 until next generation, 0 generations buffered)
First clue it's beta...
If someone can put just the old executable on an ftp site or something I can email them a copy.
clint(at)rasy.com
But I don't really want to email a copy to 200 people.
aww! that should work, its worth a try since howard has already gone to bed for the night! :sleepy:Originally posted by Welnic

Man this suxorz..only 1 computer auto updated correctly. One downloaded the file but the unpack failed to find the update file in folder..yes it is there. Other PC just said it worked..NOT. The final one just completed the download but did not install anything but deleted the update. What has Howard been drinking today
nevermind

BTW, if you've already started running it, you need to delete the .bz2 files (except rotlib.bz2), and filelist.txt, 'cause the server won't accept them.
BTW#2, the Linux client seems to be running fine.
I just gave it up....
I'll re-install a copy of the current client tomorrow and try it
again....

First attempt at autoupdate failed on both Linux and W2K.
2nd attempt by w2k worked and I got new
native.val
protein.trj
..
All seems well.

i think he is fixing it, the site seems to be back down

Hi all, just a few minor quirks, nothing to get your panties in a bunch about though
First, our usual download mirror site was down due to hardware troubles so everyone was sucking bandwidth from the hospital only (so updating may have taken a bit longer/more tries). Also, it appears the Windows and linux-i386 files on the FTP site (i.e. if you go to the Download page on the web site and click them) included the incorrect executables (the Beta versions as you pointed out). This is fixed now (as of 11:20PM EST) so if you downloaded the incorrect copy, please try again now (make sure your browser doesn't cache the download and it really re-downloads it). If unsure, run 'foldtrajlite' from the command line with no arguments. the date on the first line should be Jan 31. If instead it is a date in Feb., you have the beta.
If your machine auto-updated you won't have this problem. Sorry for any trouble this may have caused.
Also the beta.distirbutedfolding.org site was down for a bit for those of you doing beta testing, but this is back up and working fine now too.

thank you, i knew you weren't asleep, yet

I currently can't get to the www.distributedfolding.org webpage.
yeah, how "up" is it?
i can't hit it yet, kick it in gear so i can go home!
i can ping it, but no port 80 action going on or something
i know, i will break out my trusty port scanner

My entire farm is down. I can't kill the client (it runs as an NT service). The executable that is running is dated 2003/02/25 11:14 PM and all files are from that build/zip file. When I execute the commandthe service HANGS and will not shut down. The only way to kill it is to reboot the computer.netsvc /stop \\computername "Distributed Folding Project Service"
I will reboot the farm and try again tomorrow.
I was able to kill it with Task Manager (Win2K).Originally posted by KWSN_Millennium2001Guy
The only way to kill it is to reboot the computer.
When I tried to use task manager to kill foldtrajlite.ex I got the message "access denied"
This is not good.
This is starting out very badly... 12 hours after the *official release*
It must really be tuff for you LARGE pharmers out there
It's a PITA for me
Can't get the client, winders type clients that are running, are hanging trying to get the update. Can't manually download the client and just pass it around to all the computers etc. AND it's a slower protein to
I also see my clients cacheing WUs.
I think my panties are beginning to bunch up back there
