Problem installing APP
« on: 01 Aug 2008, 05:24:04 pm »

Hello,

I am trying to install the new application of Alex Kan:

Linux 64 bit AK v8.0 SSE3 (AMD/INTEL)

I am having trouble reading the app_info.xml file and I get the error message:

XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: file:///home/gandolfo/.fr-9Q8eHu/AK_V8_SSE3_LX32/Files%20to%20Install/app_info.xml
Line Number 17, Column 11:<app_info>
----------^


I am also not seeing any significant performance improvement.

BOINC says that is has found the anonymous platform so seems to be running the new-app.

Any ideas,

Nevica


regards,

Nevica

Hmmm, I've had a look in the packages and I'll have to defer to someone with more Linux experience than I. The app_info looks different to the windows structure I'm familiar with. 

It might be worth enquiring over at Number Crunching or otherwise Cruncher's site If a response is not forthcoming quickly here.

In any case if that's your Q6600 definitely running 64 bit Linux then you should be able to use the SSSE3 64 bit version,  which should be a little faster than the SSE3  32 bit version you 'appear' to be trying.   If you aren't getting significant performance improvement over stock, then I'd suggest either the app isn't running, or needs time to see a difference with RAC etc.

Please try to exchange the last line of that app_info.xml file with this one :

</app_info>

The missing 'slash' causes the error message. No panic, it is only a typo.

Additional you should try the  SSSE3 Linux64  application, that should work faster on your processor.
