My MISFIT installation is now steadily reserving a fixed number of exponents every hour. Thank you.

But it is not reporting any results to the server. What do I need to do to diagnose that part?

What are the values of ExpDone and ResultBytes? If ExpDone =0 yet bytes is > 0 your Results rows are malformed. If both are 0 then your Results.txt is not in the same directory as your workTodo.txt (or you have renamed results.txt to something else).

Also fetching work hourly is too frequently. It is best to have at least a full DAYs reserve staged at all times. GIMPS has been known to be down on occasion and you don't want to be without work. Fetching more than once per day is too often.

Stupid question, but is the "Event Scheduler" in local time or UTC time?

What is your take on this (see attached)?

Hours between results upload is set to "4."
Automatic upploads are not happening.

MISFIT is in the same directory with mfaktc.

Thank you

I assume you have filled out the "GIMPS credentials" in the Security tab?

Yep, it is getting exponents from PrimeNET automatically; but reporting results is not working.
I just watched the “Next Upload” green bar roll back to zero, with nothing happening.

What is the “Export Results” button for?
When I click it I get, “No results to export!”

Please send me a copy of your results.txt

MISFIT does not support results.txt file with lines containing prefixs like "UID: xyz/abc"
I personally didn't find an meaning/use in having those values configured in my mfaktc.ini so I stopped using them and MISFIT was never designed to support them. Until someone can establish their benefit in the GIMPS system MISFIT won't have support for it.

Let me just say that Mr. Flashjh one of the TOP producers doesn't use "UID: xyz/abc" and he is very serious about his data.

It is your PC's time

We installed this "MISFIT" thing on our laptop, which is under a year old, and it suffered a BSOD that required us to remove the battery to reset and now it runs much slower! Could it be because it has an AMD processor? We heard those are real low quality.

Dear Mr. Xyzzy,
Is this a prank question or do I need to decipher what you are really asking or stating. Knowing you are a renowed forum member I'll have my entire MISIT support team standing by to address your inquiries.

Thank You,
Mrs. MISFIT,
Executive Assistant to Mr. MISFIT.
