Another case of an "early fail" WU using the A3core (2.17) while running OSX 10.6.3. However, things are getting more serious, if that can be possible. In the past, these failures occured before the WU reached 7% completion. This WU failed just before reaching 26%. The Client (6.29r3) was not able to complete the Work files so there was nothing for return to Stanford. NO RETURN, NO POINTS FOR PARTIAL COMPLETION. Nada, Zilch, Nothing...
Is there going to be a fix for this Problem????????? The Question MUST be asked Over and Over and Over until something effective is done. I had stopped posting entries in this Forum about these "early fail" WUs because they are just everyday occurrences. I understand the PG is working on the problem. I think that the active Folders are due something more than the casual comment. I thought this new group of 605X WUs were going to run Cleanly. IT ISN'T THE CASE.
Those that share my concern should return to posting about the failures in this Forum. Apparently the Squeaky Wheel syndrome is in effect here. If you want the Grease you better Squeak (loudly) because it's a long way to Palo Alto and it may be difficult to prioritize which wheel is gonna get Greased.
The Log File for this broken WU follows:
