Problems with seti after a power outage

I have been crunching away just fine on my freebsd 7.1 AMD64 box. I then had a couple of small but rather annoying power outages the other week. Now Boinc just refuses to run.

It does not auto run after a reboot, so starting boinc manually.

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/boinc* start
Starting BOINC client.
sun2# Another instance of BOINC is running

Now I have checked top and there is not another instance running

If I try a boinc_client --allow_remote_gui_rpc

SIGBUS: bus error

I tried a re-install using setenv FORCE_PKG_REGISTER
and it has made no difference. Any help would be appreciated.

You had this problem before, in this thread.

Sounds more and more as if you have a problem with your disk. Seeing how you got a similar startup error both times:

23-May-2009 17:59:46 [---] [error] Invalid account filename: account_setiathome.

15-Mar-2009 11:46:07 [---] [error] Invalid account filename: account_setiathome.berkeley.edu.xml.old

was slight more concerned about the sigbus error which I dont think is related to the account details

Thanks for the pointers .. as it seems to be with that particular machine, boinc wont work ... then boinc will suddenly start working.

I will keep an eye on it and see if I can nail down what is causing it, I will take a back up of the account file for safe keeping.
