Development for LHC@home

https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/show_host_detail.php?hostid=4561

I see that is a Windows 11 laptop and I have one doing that too so I gave up and just use it for Einstein GPU's
I checked the Bios on mine about 20 times and it refuses to work.

...We are putting some tasks here which use a brand new version of the ATLAS "pilot": this is the tool which controls the execution of the task from start to finish....

Rom just released vboxwrapper 26186 at the weekend to support VirtualBox 5.1 on Windows. The Theory app was updated so that the release on Monday would go with that version but the CMS app wasn't updated. It has been done now so please try again.

Disconnecting the internet for 10min causes:

After resume the job finishes.
The running.log and the last finished x.log are the same.

No new Job is started.(for at least 1 hour)

No "Job finished" entry in stderr.txt

05/05/16 15:01:38 condor_write(): Socket closed when trying to write 365 bytes to <188.184.187.167:9618>, fd is 11
05/05/16 15:01:38 Buf::write(): condor_write() failed

05/05/16 15:01:38 JobExit() failed, waiting for job lease to expire or for a reconnect attempt

Recap;

...-Default app_config downloads with Theory if none already present (however, it might not take effect until Host or Boinc are restarted, or manual "Read config files"?)

vLHCathome-dev: Notice from BOINC
Your app_config.xml file refers to an unknown application 'ALICE'. Known applications: 'LHCb', 'CMS', 'Theory', 'ATLAS'

Sure. There should be a prominent entry in the FAQs.

http://lhcathome.web.cern.ch/faq

In terms of priority, it is more important that we don't lock up new volunteer's machines by swamping them with tasks than trying to maximize then number of tasks we can run by default.

We hope that those volunteers with powerful machines and who would like to donate more can follow the FAQ.

If any of you can think of a better way to do this please let us know. Later tonight I will create a new version of the CMS app that also has this file to see if it breaks anything.
