Been noticing problems yesterday and now today with computation errors on packets that are "Enigma 0.76 5.17" of three seperate machines now. These machines are all standard, no frills, no overclocking type machines that have been working 100% solid since I began the project. I've not seen any such errors on the newer "Enigma-0.67-Test 5.19" packets. |

Nothing was changed on the project side recently, could you post links to the failed results ? Maybe it's the weird 'http 404 bug' which I'm trying to trace for last few days. It causes some downloads to fail with 404 error for unknown reason.
These workunits are very short, so it's unlikely to see them failing with computation errors. EDIT: I went through the list of your machines and found this:
could you check what's inside slot folders ? I've set workunits disk space limit at 8M, it's high enough because the only file that's growing is the result.txt, but I've never seen it larger than 50kBytes. M4 Project homepage M4 Project wiki |

Okay, I should be able to check my home machines by 10pm EST. My sole machine at my desk has 8 folders under "Slots" listed as 0 thru 7; slots 0, 2 & 3 are at about 145k, while slot 1 is up over 9.25 meg. This particular machine is(was) sharing some time with Rosetta, but I've detached from that project to troubleshoot this issue. |

Each result fails with the same error message: -177 ERR_RSC_LIMIT_EXCEEDED. Perhaps some additional (debug?) info is written to result.txt or stderr.txt, and when it gets too large the manager aborts workunit. Could you periodically check what's inside slot dirs used by Enigma ? Usually it looks like this: results.txt is growing slowly (each time when a result with score higher than previous top score is found, it's added there), but if it's larger than 20-30 kBytes then probably something is wrong. Stderr usually looks like this:
