What I did was I turned my computer on, started the client, and then went to services.msc, shut down the client manually, then started the service. Then afterwards, I shut down the service, and restarted the client manually, producing what you see here. This is a direct copy/paste from the log, there's been nothing added, deleted, or moved. There was no extra portion in between the two starts indicated in the part I put in the code tags. The client was using CPU utilization in the Task Manager, but its progress wasn't showing up on HFM, so I stopped the service and restarted it. And it appears that this is why: the progress wasn't logged. Roughly 90 minutes of runtime wasn't written to the file. This happened with my GPU client as well, it appears that there must have been a corrupted checkpoint and it restarted. So what's going on? Why didn't it write? When I used services to start the client automatically in the past it wrote to the log file, why didn't it do it this time round?
 
I've seen this once or twice before. Really tripped me out, but at the end of the day, it finished and was sent up. Don't know what to tell you. You could delete and restart if you are concerned with the validity of the results.
 
I'm just wondering why the log isn't recording all the activity that's going on. What's the point of a log, if it doesn't write everything down?
 
ive had it happen before.. but i dont care enough about the log anyways since the winsmp clients so much more stable then it was before..
