SETI Problems
areese:
Since the huge outage last week all of my optimized apps cannot get new work. Any machines I have running the standard app work just fine. I even tried a full reinstall on one machine with the optimized app and still nothing. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Please see http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=39531&nowrap=true#570201 for a workaround.
HTH,
Simon.

Simon....I did the disable app info bit and my hosts were then able to download all the work they wanted. 'Til either they reached their daily quota, or got a short WU and went into EDF and stopped looking for more work. Put the app info file back so I can keep crunching at full speed, but I suspect this will muck up comms with Seti again. May have to go through this once a day or so until they get things fixed again.
Have you any insight as to how running the optimized app could be hindering comms with the server? Did they do some code mods coinciding with the crash and new server migration that are taking exceptiion to the requests the optimized apps make vs what the stock app makes?
'Tis a puzzlement.

If i read the whole tech news and blogs at the s@h board correctly, then i assume it's due to the fact that they updated their boinc server software....
If you ask me ... a "very" good idea while having major issues from clients connecting...
If you need answers on who to blame for this one and some other major issues like "ghost WUs" ( not the ones atm but the previous ones) ... send a pm if it's not allready clear who to blame.

I can't do that disable app info thing on my Pentium D because I'm using the 64 bit BOINC. It won't get work units without it. :'( Guess I'll have to switch it back to 32 bit.
I got my Xeon X3220 going with openSuse 10.2 and am using the 32 bit BOINC and it got work right away. :) Switched right to the 32 bit 2.2B, so I'm starting to get back on track.
