Forgive the following verbiage (passwd Xed)
When I run # ./mprime -c Sending result to server for exponent 18080627 ERROR: Primenet error 2252 The FAQ at http://www.entropia.com/ips/faq.html may have more information. I get the following tcp/http traffic... so it look like maybe I get a dialogue with the mprime server (64.66.6.250)...

As you figured out mprime contacts 64.66.6.250 over port 80

Any idea what "ERROR: Primenet error 2252" is?
(I appear to have a good connection to primnet and manage to set up a tcp dialogue) |

Thanx, I even found your answer on the main page of http://mersenne.org/
Under: "Other Recent News "Error 2252. Some users that have a proxy server between their computer and "mersenne.org are reporting this error. Version 23.8 corrects this problem by using full "URLs instead of relative URLs. Visit the download page to upgrade the client. The bad news is that I run Linux and there is not version 23.8, does this mean all Linux users are having the same problem? (It would be a shame to throw away my factorising results 99.9% done) 2/10/03 8:31 PM 376628 mprime231.tar.gz 2/20/03 6:07 PM 378035 mprime232.tar.gz 5/1/03 9:30 PM 416006 mprime233.tar.gz 5/24/03 3:51 PM 413203 mprime234.tar.gz 7/3/03 8:34 PM 417531 mprime235.tar.gz Does that mean I need to download and compile the source and send it in? Is this version 2.38 source? 8/12/03 12:27 AM 2511263 source23.zip I note that the Windows executable is from 2004, but the source is 2003. Is this a problem? 2/17/04 10:19 PM 1065696 p95v238.exe 2/17/04 10:20 PM 913112 p95v238.zip Would you like me to send in my Linux binaries if/when I recompile? ThanX |

You can use full URLs in Linux 23.5 by adding the line "UseFullURL=1" to primenet.ini - you'll probably have to create that file.

I created the file, and even put UseFullURL=1 into primenet.ini and prime.ini, saddly no luck.
$ ls -lt *.ini -rw-rw-r-- 1 nevilled nevilled 215 May 3 09:06 local.ini -rw-rw-r-- 1 nevilled nevilled 230 May 3 08:32 prime.ini -rw-rw-r-- 1 nevilled nevilled 13 May 3 08:32 primenet.ini -rw-rw-r-- 1 nevilled nevilled 0 May 1 10:50 worktodo.ini $ grep UseFullURL=1 *.ini prime.ini:UseFullURL=1 primenet.ini:UseFullURL=1 $ ./mprime -d Mersenne number primality test program version 23.5 Sending result to server for exponent 18080627 ERROR: Primenet error 2252 The FAQ at http://www.entropia.com/ips/faq.html may have more information. Will try contacting server again in 60 minutes. ^C $ strings mprime | egrep -i "primenet.ini|url" primenet.ini UseFullURL $ -- so it seems that the executable does know about primenet.ini & UseFullURL I note that once a month, near the estimated end date the system manages to communicate a different message with the primenet server. i.e. [Fri Mar 12 16:40:24 2004 - ver 23.5] Updating computer information on the server Sending expected completion date for M18080627: Apr 19 2004 [Sat Apr 10 09:56:27 2004 - ver 23.5] Updating computer information on the server Sending expected completion date for M18080627: May 9 2004 Maybe I should just leave it running for a few more day waiting for the next "end date check in"?? (Or I could change LastEndDatesSent=1081562188 to a smaller number to speed this up?) I also note that the problem only started on the 12th or March. Prior to this the "client" mprime program did not log any server connection problems/messages (even after several months of running). It is possible that something was changed on the server that triggered this problem? Possibly the mprime "server side" communication service was changed, or maybe you installed a WindowsNT service pack that was patching one of Microsofts famous virus/worm holes? (Which works so well that NO relative URLs work anymore...) Here is a log when the FIRST problem happened: Updating computer information on the server Sending expected completion date for M18080627: Mar 15 2004 [Fri Mar 12 14:25:11 2004 - ver 23.5] ERROR: Primenet error 2252 [Fri Mar 12 14:25:40 2004 - ver 23.5] ERROR: Primenet error 2252 [Fri Mar 12 16:40:24 2004 - ver 23.5] Updating computer information on the server Sending expected completion date for M18080627: Apr 19 2004 [Fri Apr 2 11:26:33 2004 - ver 23.5] Updating computer information on the server ERROR: Primenet error 2252 [Fri Apr 2 11:29:44 2004 - ver 23.5] Updating computer information on the server ERROR: Primenet error 2252 (FYI: mprime not been running 100% of the time on this machine) Any more ideas?

I've been using Mprime 2.35 on Libranet 2.7, 2.8 and Slackware 9.0 - kernel versions 2.4.20 and 2.6.4 (which I abandoned because it ran slightly slower) - since last September without any connection problems. (Well, OK, occasionally the server may have been unavailable for a couple of hours.) I've used it over external dial up modem and via ADSL. I've run it through a firewall. I've never had to tweak the settings. (So I'm probably not going to be much help
![]() I take it you can use the box for normal internet access so you know it's not just a dodgy cable or card? |

The 23.8 sources are not available for download. We can verify that UseFullURL is working by adding the line Debug=1 to primenet.ini. Then post the debug output from prime.log. I don't think we'll learn anything new, but that's all I can think of.
The only other alternative is to download the sources and build 23.5 with debugging on. If you have any suggested improvements to the primenet.c file I'd love to hear them. |

Well... my ISP isnt an angel, but I am on the net right now.. no problems.
If U look at the logs the problem only comes up after a month or so when the Mprime client tries (is due) to check in with the mprime server. And from that failure it tries every hour, and gets a failure. My thought is maybe it is to do with the phase of the calculation. Here are the "non error messages" in the file "prime.log" Updating user information on the server Updating computer information on the server Sending text message to server: UID: nevillednz/romeo, UID: nevillednz, User: Neville C. Dempsey, NevilleDNZ.gimps_spamer@3ttechnology.com Getting exponents from server Sending text message to server: UID: nevillednz/romeo, M18080627 completed P-1, B1=210000, B2=4357500, WZ2: D3830A81 Sending result to server for exponent 18080627 Updating computer information on the server Getting exponents from server Sending result to server for exponent 18080627 Currently I am getting the following error every hour: ![]() [Mon May 3 09:14:12 2004 - ver 23.5] Sending result to server for exponent 18080627 ERROR: Primenet error 2252 I have tried running the job in the foreground, background and under cron. ![]() Maybe I restired some old data files after my hard disk was fried & died?? ![]() BTW: It says 2^18080627-1 isn't prime.... incase anyone wondered! ![]() Maybe I can just email my results to someone? ![]() NevilleDNZ |
