hi all im having problems getting the V7 client working on Ubuntu i started following the guide on stanfords website when i select the install manager to install the fahclient its already installed i assume its the 6.34 even tho ive deleted the v6.34 files... so i click reinstall... and i believe it reinstalls it t5o v7? , but no pop up appears to add my donar name/team number etc as it says it would in the install guide. i then installed fahcontrol.... that went ok... if i go to applications/sceince fahcontrol is there... it loads up and stays on connecting... i click on configure but because im not online theres not tabs to input all my info etc so i click start local client at the bottom and i just get an error message: 'the local client exited unexpectedly, please check for errors in the log file in the following directory: /home/kirk46/.FAHclient restart the client? yes or no there is no .FAHclient file in that directory im stuck Ive just realised that the V7 client on my main rig and my 4P folding rig have the same ip and port?
Hi kirk46, No two computers on the same network should have the same IP address. Are both machines set to get the IP address from DHCP server, normally your router, or set manually? To find out whats running on your linux machine type the following: Code: top You should then see the top applications and how much processing they are taking up. FAH should be taking 100% x the number set by smp flag. Defaults to maximum available. You need to press ctrl + c to exit.
ive no idea... ive had several V7 clients running in windows 7 with no problems and i used remote access to control them all from my main rig? Im not running Fah as it wont start?
Ahhh. 127.0.0.1 is localhost and is only relevant to the local machine. All computers have localhost (127.0.0.1) If FAHControl was controlling a remote machine then that machines IP address will be shown instead of 127.0.0.1.
I didn't uninstalled it all and reinstalled it, it came up with the pop up to add details etc, But no cores are running
To list all processes that are running type the following in a terminal: Code: ps -A For me I have three processes running for folding: 1281 ? 00:06:37 FAHClient 3019 ? 00:00:03 FAHCoreWrapper 3023 ? 11:18:00 FahCore_a4 Can you post your results and results for top please?
i will boot up the rig in a bit but i dont have any of those processes running Scorpuk what version of Ubuntu are you using? also how did you install the FAHclient and FAH control? cheers
On my server and Q6600 I am using 12.04 64bit. When I installed FA on my server I downloaded the .deb file and then double clicked on it to install. It used the software centre to install it. Graphical interface on that one. For my Q6600 I had to use terminal and use the following command as in the FAH v7 install guide: Code: sudo dpkg -i --force-depends fahclient_7.1.52_amd64.deb It then prompted me for name, team and passkey. Thankfully I could copy n paste over putty. For both I didnt need to run a command to start them as they were already running right after the install. For FAHControl I have only managed to install it on my server as it does require a GUI and currently my Q6600 is lacking that. Same again on the server, downloaded the .deb file and double clicked on it to install with the software centre.
The Q6600 is in the garage with no monitor. With no monitor attached Ubuntu doest start the GUI. Bit of moving around required this weekend.
ahhh i see i thought it was something complicated lol ive upgraded to 11.04 i thought it upgraded me to the newist version hmmmm ive uninstalled fahclient and control, i will reinstall them and see what happends
Upgrading in Ubuntu will always upgrade sequentially. You should get another option to upgrade to 11.10 and then to 12.04. I think. I always find a fresh install best, but thats becasue on my server the OS resides on a 100GB partition on the Raid, so doesnt affect my data.
ah i see well ive installed fahclient and still no folding processes: Code: PID TTY TIME CMD 1 ? 00:00:03 init 2 ? 00:00:00 kthreadd 3 ? 00:00:00 ksoftirqd/0 4 ? 00:00:00 kworker/0:0 6 ? 00:00:00 migration/0 7 ?

Did it ask you for your username, team and passkey? Try running the following in a terminal window: Code: FAHClient If this works and you get the following: Try then running FAHControl from the terminal. CTRL + c to terminate.
yes it asked me for those details... typing Fahclient, i get command not found... i might just do a fresh install?
Linux is case sensative for commands. You need to type as follows: Code: FAHClient First four characters in capital.
