Hi, my computer isn't downloading any more work units. I have a couple of computers on my account, and the other computers are working. I have a PowerMac G5. Anyone know what's up? Thanks.

BOINC No Longer Working

Fri May 5 23:06:18 2006|Einstein@Home|Message from server: (reached daily quota of 2 results)

This is the error message I'm getting in the console. Haven't had this issue before (been running this for about 4 months).

I guess the reason is elsewhere :-)

Well, the question is then: How do I fix it? :)

Do you recall if you added any programs or made any changes to the computer on Mar. 3-4? I've looked in the BOINC Wiki concerning 'process got signal 13' and searched around various help (forum) groups but haven't found anything definitive yet. Perhaps if you submitted a question on an Apple help group, they may be able to answer.

Honza, could you clarify the relationship of your '(reached daily quota of 64 results)' with the original poster's '(reached daily quota of 2 results)'?

When you have rectified the problem causing the failed results and there are no WU's for that host. Set the project on that host only to No New Work, click update and then after it's settled down click Reset Project. That should fix the WU/day setting.

If not, then do the same as above but select Detach and then re-join again.

Alright, I'll look into it. What causes "errored" results? As far as I know, nothing has dramatically changed on my system...

Any number of things can cause an error, a vital element of the program being overwritten, even just one byte, can do it. That is why nevermorestr asked if you'd installed of made any changes recently.
