Is it normal that a WU is ready crunched in approx. 7:30 minutes under Linux?
It´s with a Pentium D box @ 3,64 Ghz...


-Edit-
Ok, I saw it is not normal...
I got this error with all Linux WUs in the stderr out:

<core_client_version>5.6.3</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<stderr_txt>

We're a little at a loss with this one.We've run the same workunit on a couple of our own test boxes (different hardware) and all run fine. Will keep on searching for a solution.

Thanks. I hope we find the problem soon!

PS As a favor, please send a file called charmm.out to dockingadmin@utep.edu. This will help us track the problem faster.

It seems to take the same WU totally different times sometimes. My Linux machine (Suse 9.2) never had the short ones. But the one WU of the new batch that I did up to now had another Linux in another result with an incompatible runtime.

We have finally found the cause of the problem that some users were experiencing on their Linux systems. It has to do with the stacksize setting on your machine which is for some distros (SuSE 9.3 and 10 for example) set to unlimited and for others (FCx, Ubuntu, etc) set to a limited value like 10240. Your setting can be seen by typing 'ulimit -s' in a terminal. To make the Charmm 'exit 1' errors go away, please set the stacksize to unlimited using the command 'ulimit -s unlimited'. This is not saying that Charmm will use all of your memory (it won't), but it gives us a little bit more space to do our simulations correctly and without errors. Please let us know if this does not work for you. If it does work, please add this command to your shell initialization file (.bashrc, .tcshrc, .kshrc, etc) in your home directory. Of course don't forget to resume the D@H project on your boincmgr in case you suspended it before.

Thanks,
Andre

Will try that when I´m at home. I hope it works, but I think that can´t be a permanent fix for that issue. How can you inform new Docking@home users about it?
