Harvesters with no GPUs #68

Open dietrichschmitz opened 1 year ago

Maybe I missed it elsewhere, but if you have a farmer using separate machines as harvesters (and running the Giga harvester on them), does the harvester need to have a GPU? Running into the same error on two separate harvesters I've tried to set up. This happens when I run start_harvester. Farmer is otherwise fine and works wonderfully.

This error is not related to GPU, is that on windows? if yes, please install MSVC redistributable.

madMAx43v3r commented 1 year ago

On Windows you might have to install latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

Yes - it's Windows. Two of my machines have the issue, and they are both an older model JBOD (Chenbro 12000NR). My other computers don't seem to have the same issue.

Yes, did install that Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable - and reinstalled it. Still no success on the Chenbros. I'll dig in further, and see what I can figure out. Thanks for the info that it's not related to the GPU. :-) Really appreciate your work on this tremendously.

What CPU are these machines running?

madMAx43v3r commented 1 year ago

Hmm well, it could be a missing OpenCL library, can you try installing the Intel version: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit-download.html

madMAx43v3r commented 1 year ago

Or Nvidia driver, doesnt matter

Chiliheld commented 1 year ago

since @dietrichschmitz did not report back... I've installed the OpenCL library and it worked on my Win10
