Weird GPU error on all clients - FahCore_65.exe

[APOLLO]

I'm getting a strange error in my GPU clients that must be some kind of glitch. This error keeps on repeating unless I delete the work folder and queue.dat file...

Wow, weird. I haven't seen this in a long time, let me ask friedrim and co.

Core 65 used to be old Tinker code.. no reason should you be getting it on a GPU.

Well I guess I am not the only one. I've got 2 out 5 GPU2 clients out of commission due to this. It's been several hours of trying to download this new core.

The other 3 should wrap up their WUs within the next hour and hopefully all 5 don't go out of commission.

I have the same problem; server might be down.

No wonder my 260's are purple. (HFM status of course)

Guys, you can still get work, just delete the work folder and queu.dat file and you'll receive work for the time being. Poor Atlas...

The problem seems to be resolved. Everything is working as normal.

I had this too.

IF this happens you can also re-start folding GPU client with a -delete <N> flag where <N> is the queue number of the unit causing you trouble.

The server has been removed from the assignment queue for now until they figure out the problem.

Additional "me too" reports won't change their investigation.

Smarky and condescending much? Sheesh.

Thanks ! That fixed it for me.

ugh

woke up to the same problem on my GPU2s. Fixed now.

Mine resolved itself overnight and is folding away happily again.

I had the same problems this morning when I checked my clients, and I had to remove the -advmethods flag as well as delete the queue.dat and work folder in order to resolve it. I figured it was something to do with the core_65.
