Hi,

on my home PC (WinXP, BOINC 4.45), I got the following error message:

"Unrecoverable error for result ... (The system cannot find the file specified. (0x2) - exit code 2 (0x2))"

near the end of the calculation of these work units:
w1_1398.5__1398.8_0.1_T07_S4hA
w1_1398.5__1398.6_0.1_T10_S4hA
w1_1398.5__1398.9_0.1_T10_S4hA
w1_1398.5__1398.8_0.1_T00_S4hB
w1_1398.5__1398.6_0.1_T08_S4hB

After the last error, project dir contains the following files:

Config_H_S4hA
Config_H_S4hB
earth_05_09
einstein_4.79_windows_intelx86.exe
einstein_4.79_windows_intelx86.pdb
sun_05_09
w1_1163.5
w1_1355.0
w1_1398.5

No problems so far with work units with different prefixes on this PC. No such problem at all on my 2 other PCs (1x Windows, 1x Linux).

Thanks for any help

Christian

During the first two steps the App writes two files which it reads back in in the third step (which shows up as the last percent). It does some checks on the consistency of the files, which fail in your case.

In the stderr log of Result 8104624 you see that the last line contains infinite numbers (-1.#IND0). This usually happens when there's something wrong with the FPU, maybe overheated or sth.

It may also be a problem in the code or the workunit setup, but as there have been three successful results for this WU from other machines, this is clearly not the case here.

The system interprets our error code number 2 as a "file not found" and adds an accordant message, which is rather misleading in that case.
