Here's a link to the zip file.
It contains two files: fah.asp (the actual brains of the outfit), and fah.xml (the data structure that contains particulars of the CPUs doing the folding).
There are two methods for handling the unitinfo.txt files: either locally (to the file system) or via HTTP. The "HTTP://" in front of the server's PATH node in the XML indicates to the applet which method to use to retrieve the file.
In some cases, I've had to jump through some hoops to get the files where I can read them in an uncached state. As these are quite possibly localized issues to my setup here, I haven't elaborated-- but I can certainly go into that if someone runs into similar issues.
I'm using this applet to pull from a variety of CPUs, both internal and external to my network, on both Win and Linux OSs.
Let me know if you guys come up with any cool additions/modifications. Have fun, and happy geeking!
Monday folding bookmark!
I'm having trouble, it's not loading properly.
I tried un installing the program, and tried to re install using Fanfan1, and I just get that same page (still says Fanfan) with the error results I reported in post # 51 and 52.
I'm running on Firefox, could this be part of the problem?
Try uninstalling the with add/remove programs utility in the control panel and then deleting the fold@home folder from C:\Program Files. After which you should empty your recyle bin and reboot. Now re-install the folding@home.

:O)

Firefox is not the problem because it has nothing to do with the running of F@H. The problem is within F@H.
OK Thanks.
I'll keep working on it.

We're up to 645 CPUs.
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.
Sunday's production was over 39,000 points. That's tremendous!
However ...
The three am update was 11,076 points. So far today we have generated 28,068 points. That really bodes well for our ability to pop into the Top 40.
Keep 'em coming everyone! Please ask if you need more info on Folding@Home. We will all gladly help you get started.
Congratulations to Klutz on reaching 1/4 million points!!!
...and to the entire _dohanger family. LOL

This means that the program is attempting to reach out to the Stanford servers and download a "sub" applet that runs within the main program. Think of the core as the "formula on how to decode a protein". The core does the heavy lifting, the rest of the program is housekeeping, scoring, etc. The cores are different for different series' of proteins so it checks if you have the core for the protein it downloaded and if not, it goes and gets it.
Sounds like you were able to get the protein information, but it's failing to get the core. They come from different web servers, so one could be down BUT you had this problem earlier and I added an additional machine today and downloaded a new core no fuss no muss. I'm leaning towards a firewall or proxy issue. On the configure tab, there is a checkbox "Use Internet Explorer connection settings". Which ever way it is checked, do the opposite, close the program and start it again. That may fix it.
If it's a firewall issue, that's a little bit more complicated depending on how you're configured.
I would suspect a firewall configuration issue, also.
You do have one, fanfan?
Which brand is it?
:O)
P
I tried, it's doing the same thing.
LOL. Except I'm at Step #3 again.
Norton, hi-jack this, spy-bot (which isn't working properly), ad-aware, um...
Have you tried rebooting?...There is at least one reported server down and this MAY be the problem. Also, can you confirm your operating system? I assume you downloaded the XP 5.03 and not the Beta?
Yes, you are right about everything.
Try shutting them all down and see what happens. If that works, you'll have to turn them on one by one to see where your problem is. If you have Norton Internet Security, not just Norton AV, I'd start there.
