[BUG] 2 out of 8 parallel plot jobs fail silently, UI continues to report Plotting

[centrd]

Describe the bug 2 out of 8 parallel plot jobs fail silently, UI continues to report Plotting. Traceback can be seen in log, as well as a parse error.

What I did:

1. Installed Chia 1.0rc9
2. Upgraded to Chia 1.0.0
3. Started 8 parallel plot jobs

Result: 2 jobs (the bottom two on the plotter list) failed silently, while the UI continue to claim "Plotting". Error report can be seen when clicking on view log.

Expected behavior If a plotting job fails, the UI should reflect that. Optionally, a notification would be nice.

Update Came back to the plotter this evening, and Chia wasn't running. Checked Event Viewer, and found an app crash:

Can you show us whats in your config.yaml around lines 244/245?

Also noteworthy: .chia is a folder under Administrator. There is a \ missing in the path for some reason.

Another crash of the UI 8:10:51AM local time. Started plotting jobs last night. Lots of disk activity still happening, but I'm not sure if it's plotting stuff that will completed and usable.

When I re-opened the UI, it started showing database locked errors after a couple of minutes running.

Crashed again, this time around 2.23 AM. More plot jobs have been added since the last crash. Lots of disk IO still happening, so looks like it's continuing to plot, but the UI has crashed. Same exception code and fault offset.

[centrd]

Crashes are daily. Plotting continues in the background after UI crash.

I've given up and switched to using the terminal + scripts. Leaving the issue open.

Same here. Got this error twice. It seems that nothing gets broken but it is quite uncomfortable
