The servers must of been hammered with requests for new work, as there was a large number of V0.16 download error reported on 3 of my PCs. All between 02.20am and 03.45am (app). Downloads after then were OK, but I am only just starting to crunch V0.17 WUs. I assume these will be OK. Just sent off the last of the V0.14 results, and it was OK. Now the first of my V0.17 WUs will report in the next 10 minutes. The 2 V0.17 reported, validated and were awarded credit OK on my fastest rig. ID: 9198 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I think Dave might have upgraded his windows box and missed something when he recompiled BOINC. I'll have to ask him about it. Hmmm... Yep, that's been a common theme lately! ;-) If he compiled it with the latest version of Visual Studio, the you lose NT4 and 9x compatability. :-( VS2005 is the last one to have it, IIRC. So the next question is, is it kosher to set up an app_info to specify v0.14 (stock) to run for the current tasks? Alinator ID: 9274 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
