VCL error

[0x029A]

I am in the process of setting up a VCL cluster and I've hit a snag:

castle oclHashcat-plus-0.12 # vclrun ./oclHashcat-plus64.bin -t 32 -a 7 example0.hash ?a?a?a?a example.dict
ERROR: ADL_Main_Control_Create() is missing

I'm running tcpdump to watch traffic between the broker and opencld_1.2 and I see no traffic when I run the command above. This leads me to believe the problem is on the broker node.

I followed the guide from the wiki with one "minor" deviation... I'm using gentoo linux instead of ubuntu. I installed VCL according to the guide and re-wrote the init scripts for gentoo. I verified that the compute nodes work by running a test crack locally.

I googled the error above and found nothing useful. Is there a dependency I'm missing? Is there a way to get some verbose error messages out of vclrun or the broker?

you're using oclHashcat instead of vclHashcat

[0x029A]

you're using oclHashcat instead of vclHashcat

castle oclHashcat-plus-0.09 # vclrun ./vclHashcat-plus64.bin -t 32 -a 7 example0.hash ?a?a?a?a example.dict
ERROR: clGetDeviceIDs() -1

progress? Still no communications between the broker and the node, so I'm still local. Just to verify:

castle ~ # ls -la /usr/lib/libOpenCL.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jan 29 2013 /usr/lib/libOpenCL.so -> vcl/libOpenCL.so.1

castle ~ # ls -la /usr/lib/vcl/

yes, or wait for the next release.

Just to highlight the comedy of this situation: I searched google for "ERROR: ADL_Main_Control_Create() is missing"

Google responded:

Did you mean MARIO: ADL_Main_Control_Create() is missing

No google... I did not.

castle oclHashcat-plus-0.09 # vclrun ./vclHashcat-plus64.bin -t 32 -a 7 example0.hash ?a?a?a?a example.dict
ERROR: ADL_Main_Control_Create() is missing

So I'm using vclHashcat and I'm getting the same error. Is there any way to get more meaningful error messages out of vclrun or the broker?

[epixoip]

The error is from hashcat, not vcl. It is expecting to find the AMD Display Library for temp reporting, fan control, etc.

Try running hashcat with --gpu-temp-disable

Wondering if we should switch that automatically to off in the vcl* binary...

[epixoip]

yeah it would make sense to do that. you can probably just comment out all the ADL code.

Can one of you guys 0x029A and epixoip create a ticket for this please?
