to crunch these WUs you should increase your disk quota to BOINC.

Unless I can't read, I think I'm allowing BOINC to use many, many gigabytes of disk. My disk has 100GB free space, my preference is to use at most 80GB, leave at least 2GB free and use at most 80% of total disk space. I think I have enough disk space allocated.

< 1 GB should give several times what you need in terms of space.
So, I don't know what is the problem. There is no limit of 100MB on any of our files (there are limits per file but they are either larger or smaller).

I will check on Monday with Ignasi.

It is solved. They should run fine now.
An excessive amount of restart files were being generated which increased unexpectedly the size used by the WU.

The new fixed WUs are out already.

thanks,

Hiho,

Today I've got two of these WUs (on different PCs)

http://www.gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=387020
http://www.gpugrid.net/result.php?resultid=387774

Both died with the "Exit status -177 (0xffffffffffffff4f)".

I'm be sure there are enough free disk space available.

And the WU after it, died instantly! :-/
