How do I find the error log for my detector ?


Go to your tasks page ...

http://radioactiveathome.org/boinc/results.php?hostid=28336

... and click on a unit with no credit in the 'Task' column.

Your sensor started working yesterday apparently :)

Looks like your sensor went offline on the 27th November ...

Lost sensor, trying to reopen....
Could not find any of the devices listed in sensors.xml: Device communication error


Probably just the USB port or internal hub playing up, which a power cycle might fix. Or a Windows automatic update that screwed things up, see if you had one before the sensor went offline.

No idea what all the database errors mean, but possibly connected to the work fetch problem.

Still lots or problems.

Not able to post a detailed log for some reason, so a few bits ...

This oone happens a lot:

28/11/2024 14:29:21 | Radioactive@Home | Server can't open database

Lots of problems like this, tasks marked as invalid because the server thinks they have been reported twice, tasks stuck in pending, and sometimes multiple active tasks listed although they don't exist.

No issues with other projects, and the site is sometimes inaccessible from a different machine while this is happening :(

Access to server status page is very slow, but always shows around 10k tasks available. I also have a number of phantom tasks, and some stuck in pending for many days. Other projects are working fine.

Been going on for a while :(

However, the server status page shows 9992 tasks available. It takes about 10 minutes for the server status page to load, similarly the 'your account' page, and it takes about 15 minutes to post a message, which always gets flagged, although the message has actually posted.

Something not right here :)
