One of my machines has had two recently from

ADRIA_FOLDUBQ80_crystal_ss_contacts_50_ubiquitin

which have failed on all machines they've been sent to. Error tasks for host 43404

same here with
e1s83_ubiquitin_50ns_16-ADRIA_FOLDUBQ80_crystal_ss_contacts_50_ubiquitin_0-0-1-RND4530_7
which errored out after 1.09 seconds :-(

http://gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=16601415

these tasks should be removed from the batch!

On the Project Status Page, at the moment this type of task shows an error rate of 68.69% !

just a minute ago, another task from this batch errored out after 35 seconds.
The error rate on the Project Status page has meanwhile exceeded 70% !

I don't understand why this batch of faulty tasks has not been removed yet :-(

Interestingly enough, on the Project Status Page this batch is now listed under "short runs" - why so?

On the other hand, that's where these tasks belong to, anyway, after they run only for very short time, i.e. a few seconds :-)

in absence of any reaction/answer/comment from the GPUGRID people this may look like talking to myself, yes :-(

It is actually better to let these units run the course, and become a "too many errors (may have a bug)" units, which means they will eventually disappear from your computer's task page. If they are canceled before that, they will stay with you forever. It is a bug in the system! This is mentioned in another thread, somewhere.

Here's another question. Where are the new IT people or person, that were or was supposed to be hired earlier this year to fix this and other problems?

I suspect there is no such person yet. Unless someone from GPUGRID can tell us the contrary.
