	I'm seeing this error when I try and connect with SETI@Home:- 'The Project is temporarily unavailable' > 'Please try again later'. Its been like this all week so I'm guessing its my setup as its a new installation behind a proxy. Last time this happened I added a cc_config.xml to the BOINC install folder and was away. Its not worked this time. I've triple checked the proxy server settings (both HTTP and SOCKS) and am 100% sure these are correct, but still no connection. Can anyone advise as I'm out of ideas? Here are my messages plus a link to a couple of screenies and the content of my cc_config file: <cc_config> <options> <force_auth>basic</force_auth> </options> </cc_config> http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/colin.steadman/RandomStuff#5257702466903833858 http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/colin.steadman/RandomStuff#5257702469454389074 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Starting BOINC client version 6.2.19 for windows_intelx86 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|log flags: task, file_xfer, sched_ops 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Libraries: libcurl/7.18.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8e zlib/1.2.3 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Running as a daemon 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Data directory: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Running under account boinc_master 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Processor: 2 AuthenticAMD AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+ [x86 Family 15 Model 107 Stepping 2] 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Processor features: fpu tsc pae nx sse sse2 3dnow mmx 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|OS: Microsoft Windows XP: Professional x86 Editon, Service Pack 3, (05.01.2600.00) 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Memory: 3.44 GB physical, 5.27 GB virtual 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Disk: 74.42 GB total, 61.07 GB free 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Local time is UTC +1 hours 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|No general preferences found - using BOINC defaults 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Preferences limit memory usage when active to 1759.18MB 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Preferences limit memory usage when idle to 3166.52MB 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Preferences limit disk usage to 9.31GB 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|This computer is not attached to any projects 13/10/2008 10:38:16\|\|Visit http://boinc.berkeley.edu for instructions 13/10/2008 10:38:45\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 15/10/2008 08:50:57\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 08:34:39\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 08:35:11\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 08:37:03\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 08:39:34\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 08:39:46\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://www.primegrid.com/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 10:52:33\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php 16/10/2008 11:30:22\|\|Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php ____________

	No, but I only tried that on the off-chance that it would connect, just to eliminate Seti@Home as the problem. Looks like its BOINC in general, not just SETI. ____________

	Where did you put cc_config.xml? In your BOINC directory or in your BOINC data directory? It needs to be in your BOINC Data directory at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC ____________ Jord - BOINC FAQ Service - BOINC User Wiki Real is just a matter of perception.

	Ahh its was in the wrong place. I've moved it over, but its still not able to connect. Any other ideas? It'd be a waste not to be able to use the processor in this PC.

	Did you exit BOINC and restart it after you moved the cc_config.xml file over to the correct directory? Else try: BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Advanced->Read config file. ____________ Jord - BOINC FAQ Service - BOINC User Wiki Real is just a matter of perception.

	I did indeed, including a reboot, but it still failed to connect. I've just connected to a raw internet connection and it still didn't connect. I have therefore uninstalled it, downloaded a new copy of the client and done a reinstall. Bingo! It now connects and seems to be doing its thing.
