project:17435 run:0 clone:1286 gen:36 causes FAH service to crash after reaching ~.04% complete. This happed similarly on another work unit Saturday - forcing me to dump the WU. After that, it ran well for a couple days, now it's back to the same problem.

N/A for that time period - appears to have rolled

I realize this is an old build, old GPU and old driver ... but I figured it's worth reporting.

Thank you,

It is strongly recommended to use version 7.6.21 since FahCore_22 has some new arguments that are not supported by the older clients. Thus, it would be nice to simply update the client. Since you have Ubuntu 16, I think it can handle Python 2 without issues so it would be easier to upgrade.

BTW, you can have up-to 16 previous logs in the logs folder by default so you can check the file in there if needed

Thanks - yea, I haven't looked at Linux logs for a while (found them in /var/lib/fahclient/logs) ... looks like a "BAD_FRAME_CHECKSUM" upon restart, and the work unit auto-dumped in this case. Both failures came from project 17435.

Generally speaking, a cause of that could be a faulty disk drive since it is reading the checkpoint data to resume and if it fails the checksum, that's a strong indication that something is off. See if your filesystem is healthy and repair any issues if detected/needed. Also, check to see if your drive (HDD/SSD) are within normal parameters for working.
