Scratch that. Turns out I had the milkyway package installed when I didn't need it. After I uninstalled that, BOINC downloaded the applications like it was supposed to, but now a new issue has arisen...

The manager downloads all available WU's and then they all abort at once. Anything else I should be looking for?

Hey everyone,

I just moved all of my old hardware into a spare case I had laying around to turn into a 24 hour BOINC box. I had two 280X's that I threw in there and decided for simplicity's sake that I'd just go for Linux since I know that MilkyWay and most other BOINC projects are compatible with it.

The long short of things is that I can get just about anything else to run right now except for MilkyWay :( The manager keeps showing notices that the files for the applications can't be found based on the info I put in the app_info.xml. I edited and re-edited that file many times based off of solutions in other threads but I still can't seem to get any MW activity going.

Any suggestions? All help is much appreciated! :)
