I noticed recently that my BOINC is showing no work done for SETI@home since 4/2/09, and apparently even longer for another project (climateprediction.net). I've seen some messages about SETI@home outages recently, but they appear to have been fixed, yet my system doesn't seem to be getting any tasks. The message log just has a string of "Communication deferred" messages. I have BOINC Manager 5.10.45 on Kubuntu 8.04. Any thoughts? |

What's the reason for the deferral? |

something appears wrong, here. your last WU too 246 hours to complete. That seems like an excessively long time for a 3.4Ghz CPU. Have you attempted to update seti? any messages? In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

Or nothing is wrong as he is also running ClimatePrediction.Net, which may be using the CPU(s) now in the old pay-back-the-time-spent-on-Seti fashion. |

I can't get access to the CPDN site to check his Workload there. CPDN is flaking on my work PC In a rich man's house there is no place to spit but his face. Diogenes Of Sinope |

No, CPDN is off line due to server problems. That's apparently the latest new thing to have in BOINC-land.... server problems and database problems. ;-) @Beckfield, can you please post your BOINC startup messages? |

Sorry to ignore this for so long. I had some real-world events which took me away from this for several weeks. I'm not sure what happened, but recently both SETI and ClimatePrediction started working again, as of May 20. I can't explain what might have caused this. Nothing unusual occurred that day on my system, no new software, reconfigurations, etc. Thanks for your willingness to help. Beckfield |
