1) Message boards : : Number crunching : Invalid
Posted 1525 days ago by svenni96
This problem is known and is also handled in another Therad, http://www.chess960athome.org/alpha/forum_thread.php?id=29

It seem that the application has sometimes problems to finish a wu. So there will be difference in the resultfiles and you did not get any credits.

But the WUs here are very small and fast to compute. You will only waste a small amount of processor time for that invalid WUs.

And its still ALPHA.

Right now for me. Just reached the 120 wu.

I think there is no problem but it shows that the validator works fine.

When no credits will be granted in the most cases the result isn`t correct in all details.
When your result received to the server the validator starts to compare it with another received result for the same workunit. If there are diffences (rounding difference because of AMD and Intel processors,a missing value because of restart or suspending the wu) both results get "Validate state = Checked, but no consensus yet". And, if only two WUs was send out, a third one will be send out.
After receiving that third result, the validator starts again checking the new result against the two old. If it is identical with ons of these, that incorrect result get the state = Invalid and no credits will be granted.
So, it seem that your four results are not correct.

I have very often that problem when crunching Leiden-WUs.
