Hi kids,

 

 

I just set up two instances of F@H on my Core2Duo, following the guide

 

HERE

 

 

But after my reboot I check the logs and they are erroring out

 

Launch directory: C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\Thread_0
Service: C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\Thread_0\FAH504-Console.exe
Arguments: -svcstart 

Launched as a service.
Entered C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\Thread_0 to do work.

Any idea how to fix this?

Just make 2 folder FAH 1 and FAHII put the exe into each folderthe run setup on each one. Machine id is either the last or next to last question use 1 for the first and 2 for the second. Then start each exe and you should be fine. Another option would be to use the windows SMP client. Get it here.

Stop the folding service instances.

 

Create a shortcut to the individual instances of FAH504-Console.exe in each folder.

 

Right click on the shortcut and choose properties. Add the -configonly flag at the very end so it looks something like this:

"C:\Program Files\Folding@Home1\FAH504-Console.exe" -configonly (your path name will be different).

 

Click on the shortcut to launch in config only mode.

 

Set the "Use IE Connection Settings" to No during the configuration process. Leave everything else the same and restart the services.

Okay, I know my IE COnnection settings is turned to "yes" right now, so I will change that and see if it helps. Someone else said that its because the servers are down, but my PS3 is pumping out WUs so I didnt think that was the problem.

 

 

And road runner, I found that guide on OCCs Folding page. If it is out of date maybe we should ask a mod to change the link to the guide to the one you referenced instead?

Ok I checked earlier and its not Stanford thats down. Its a problem where Stanford is blocking EOC from getting the results so all servers are working and I have had no problems getting WU or sending in results so you must have something set wrong
