Anyone having issues with ecm 700.02 WUs?

[yoyo]

They run faster on Linux or with the 700.02 version on Win 64.

Now I'm having issues with 3 705.02 WUs:

According to BoincTasks, none of these WUs are going to make deadline. Up to 56+ hours with no checkpoints. What's going on with ECM lately?

Those P1 and P2 ecm workunits are currently tests for a higher range.
According to the server DB your 3 mentioned workunits are already finished.

Not much of an answer. There is something VERY VERY wrong with these WUs:

All 3 were failed by 2 different machines before they got to me. One of them tied up somebodies CPU for 546,395.22 seconds before it failed. My machines supposedly ran them for 0 seconds and also supposedly returned them successfully. However on each WU your ECM app crashed and BOINC still thought the WU was running until I investigated and killed the processes. So far in the last week or so I've had around 450 hours of downtime on these CPUs due to ECM app and/or WU errors. I think we should really expect a little investigation/explanation concerning the problem rather than "3 mentioned workunits are already finished".

Again, this is the #1 machine on your project and the #1 machine for running ECM. It's error free when fed valid apps and WUs. I would think some investigation is needed.

Regarding the first one:
1 result didn't return
2nd was running on ARM which hadn't installed the gmp-ecm package, which is a precondition on ARM. This is also mentioned in the error output if the result.
3rd, yours, errored with an assertion "Expression: B1 < 3124253146UL". This is a specific problem on Windows. This is fixed in wu generator for future wus to run such workunits with an additional parameter to avoid this problem.

Regarding your workunits it is 3 times the same issue.

Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully the WUs are now fixed. I'm getting gun-shy...
