Title: BOINC State File Error
Post by: Nimblemouse on 28 Aug 2006, 09:56:30 am

Hello.

Yesterday, I used the new auto installer of KWSN on my P4 machine. It appears to have installed your SSE3-P4 version and it ran fine for all of the work units already downloaded. However, this morning I noticed the followin errors:

Any ideas on what may be causing this? By the way, S@H Beta downloads and runs fine.

Thanks,

Robin

That's the whole problem - there is a conflict between Seti Beta and the main project using current BOINC clients. New versions will fix this behaviour (again, this is a BOINC problem, not anything to do with my apps :)).

You can work around it by changing the line in app_info.xml that says "513" to "517" to make it go away for now. Both the Beta and the main project should then work again fine.

HTH,
Simon.
