New minor glitch in Known Factors page
 

Appreciate the new rules for extracting factors found after a specified date. However, there's a minor glitch, preventing ancient factors from being extracted.

Case in point: [URL="https://www.mersenne.org/report_factors/?exp_lo=9012691&exp_hi=9012691&exp_date=1997-11-11&fac_len=&dispdate=1&B1="]report factor 9012691[/URL] has two factors, not just one. And the second one, despite having a 1998-something date from history, might be present in some database with a null one.

FWIW, a similar extraction made around mid-july, when date enforcement rules were not in place, gave this other result:
[CODE]9012691,15412578926341510031,2017-04-26
9012691,121781652850531001,[/CODE]

TIA, ric

I also added a little more filtering options with min/max values for exponent/date/length.

Amazing speed! thanks

[QUOTE=James Heinrich;547991]I believe the two issue are directly related, but I'll need George's input on how to resolve it. I think it should be a simple fix.[/QUOTE]

Any update on this?

[QUOTE=tha;551692]Any update on this?[/QUOTE]Can you email/PM me a sample of result lines that fall into this category that I can test with, please?

I remember doing a "half fix" for this a month go. I'll resend the emails we exchanged to refresh your memory.

Cert work type known but unknown
 

In the first portion, all is well.
In the all-cpus section of [URL]https://www.mersenne.org/workload/[/URL], CERT assignments show up as follows:
[CODE]UNKNOWN WORKTYPE "200"

UNKNOWN WORKTYPE "200"

UNKNOWN WORKTYPE "200"

UNKNOWN WORKTYPE "200"[/CODE]Cpu-specific sections have the same issue for CERT assignments.

I could fix that, but I don't know what a CERT assignment line looks like.
Possibly [url=https://www.mersenne.org/manual_assignment/]manual assignments[/url] will also need patching?

[QUOTE=Prime95;551455][QUOTE=kriesel;551434]Worktodo format for prime95 verification/certificate is:

Number of squarings (iterations).[/QUOTE]

That's what George said in the next big development thread. :smile:

[QUOTE=Prime95;551455]Number of squarings (iterations).[/QUOTE]I'm not sure where to pull that magic number from, so I can't fix that (yet). Note-to-self: team workload page will need same patch.

[QUOTE=kriesel;551729]In the all-cpus section of [URL]https://www.mersenne.org/workload/[/URL], CERT assignments show up as follows:
UNKNOWN WORKTYPE "200"[/QUOTE]Should be fixed now. I don't have any CERT assignments so I can't see for myself, let me know if it doesn't appear as expected.
