I tried to run some Milkyway work yesterday and got this message.

Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of Milkyway@Home Separation (Modified Fit).

Your app_info.xml file doesn't have a usable version of MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation

I'm sure it was something I did that messed things up and I was wondering if there was a fairly easy way to clear out the bad version and get a new one?

Thanks in advance!

"Validation inconclusive" is nothing to worry about. It just means you are waiting for another cruncher to return results for you get credit.


I would think they would get placed in the Validation Pending category if that was the case. I just came across this myself running Modified Fit tasks.

I see Validation Inconclusive and the first thing to cross my mind is I think its a error and all my computer time has been wasted. The project team might want to put things in the correct categories to keep people from jumping to conclusions and just giving up on the project. I have seen it happen for less reason than this.
