My BOINC 4 client gives me this: 2004-08-28 19:01:23 [SETI@home] Message from server: To participate in this project, you must use major version 3 of the BOINC core client. Your core client is major version 4. So, what's up. Are we going with 4, or sticking with 3? ==================== BOINC user, team and country stats |

I'm wondering if Rom even found some help to work today? Last nite Rom wrote: Okay folks, I haven't been able to get ahold of the right people to do this upgrade right now. So I'm going to delay it till at least tomorrow, when I can get ahold of some people. I'll go ahead and post a news item on it. Sorry about the problems and all, it completely shot my day as well. ----- Rom BOINC Development Team, U.C. Berkeley Then later, he answered a question with: > Uh, Rom. I read somewhere here, (can't find the post now), that BOINC is a > software developement of Berkeley. If this is the case, why do other projects > already run under v4.05 while SETI does not? Or is SETI@Home catching up to > the other projects? This latter seems like the more logical explanation. > L8R.... The short anwser is, the server-side software is 4.x, we just re-labeled it as 3.22 so the 3.x clients would be able submit results and receive workunits. Up until a week ago the 4.x codebase wasn't suitable, since many bugs still had to be fixed. 4.x was primary geared toward the feature set required by CPDN, so they told us they were good to go. We now need to go ahead and migrate to the 4.x branch so that people can participate in both S@H and CPDN. I'm working with Predictor on an upgrade schedule. ----- Rom BOINC Development Team, U.C.
