Hi,
I used the optimized versions of Astropulse and SETI@Home with this app_info file:
<app_info>
<app>
<name>setiathome_enhanced</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>seti_enhanced-i386-v8-xeon-nographics</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>setiathome_enhanced</app_name>
<version_num>603</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>seti_enhanced-i386-v8-xeon-nographics</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
<app>
<name>astropulse_v6</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>ap_6.02r561_OSX64</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>astropulse_v6</app_name>
<version_num>602</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>ap_6.02r561_OSX64</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
</app_info>
How do I have to modify this, so that it will also run v7 workunits?
Thanks!

Unfortunately that app cannot process v7 work.
Currently you will have to run out your current work, shut down BOINC and delete/rename the app_info.xml file and then restart BOINC.

I know that, but usually there is a way to add a string to the app_info that will recognize the v7 application and run it alongside the older ones (in case there are still some WUs around for v6, but AP 6.02 optimized should definitely work).
I tried it with this, but that did not work:
<app_info>
<app>
<name>setiathome_enhanced</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>seti_enhanced-i386-v8-xeon-nographics</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>setiathome_enhanced</app_name>
<version_num>603</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>seti_enhanced-i386-v8-xeon-nographics</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
<app>
<name>astropulse_v6</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>ap_6.02r561_OSX64</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>astropulse_v6</app_name>
<version_num>602</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>ap_6.02r561_OSX64</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
<app>
<name>setiathome_v7</name>
</app>
<file_info>
<name>setiathome_7.00_i686-apple-darwin</name>
<executable/>
</file_info>
<app_version>
<app_name>setiathome_v7</app_name>
<version_num>700</version_num>
<file_ref>
<file_name>setiathome_7.00_i686-apple-darwin</file_name>
<main_program/>
</file_ref>
</app_version>
</app_info>

You manually downloaded the app from the seti server? did you set the right permissions on it? What error are you getting?
I don't see an issue with the entry but I don't run on Mac.
If arkayn's response seemed a bit harsh - there are a few idiots around who try to process V7 with the v6 apps under anon. Either because there is no optimised v7 app for their platform or because v6 is 'faster'. A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read. (Mark Twain)

The part which has me confused is why would you even need the old v6 app once your done with any work specifically assigned to it? My understanding was the v7 app will process any v6 resends it comes across.

Yes, I understood this. However, if there are any v6 WUs being resent and you still have the v6 app, that one is appr. twice as fast as v7.
Furthermore AP-optimized is also MUCH faster than the stock application.
@William: this is a known problem and I always reinstall BOINC after I do any manipulation in the SETI folder (otherwise it will give a permission-error).

Ahhh, I get it now. Apparently there isn't an updated opti v7 for Mac yet.

Correct, Urs is currently focusing on GPU apps for Linux and OSX.

Not quite correct anymore. See Applications, all variants of the 64bit Linux OpenCL GPU apps are now also available as a stock app.
So for Linux i can concentrate a little more on making a bigger variety of opt. CPU apps.

Works now! The mistake was that I did not download and install the v7 app locally.
The working app_info files is:

See Applications, all variants of the 64bit Linux OpenCL GPU apps are now also available as a stock app.
OpenCL for AMD/ATi that is. For nVidia GPU's there is only an Astropulse GPU application available.

The Seti@home v7 app for NV GPUs will not use OpenCL, but will use CUDA. Not my responsibilty. _\|/_

Any ideas how to solve that???

Did you restart BOINC client or only the BOINC manager ?
Which of your two Macs (probably the eight core host, as the 16 core got sah_v7 wus) ?
What do the first ca. 20 lines of event log look like ? Was the app_info.xml accepted without errors ? _\|/_

I restarted both. It's the 8-core machine that gives me trouble, the 8(16)-core machine is doing fine with the same app_info file.
The first lines read:

That were the first lines from your stderr, like it can be found in the results list. I meant the "Event log", which can be reached through BOINC manager in Advanced View, menu "Advanced/Event Log". That should open in a new window.
The Process creation error points to a permissions or ownership problem. Stop the BOINC client and rerun the "BOINC installer.app" again. That should solve such problems.
Alternately you could set the permissions manually, using the Terminal.app (see Launchpad). _\|/_

Does that give enough additional information?
I restarted both. It's the 8-core machine that gives me trouble, the 8(16)-core machine is doing fine with the same app_info file.
The first lines read:
<core_client_version>7.0.65</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>
too many exit(0)s
</message>
<stderr_txt>
dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable (/Library/Application Support/BOINC Data/slots/9/../../switcher/switcher) is setuid or setgid
Process creation (../../projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu/setiathome_7.00_i686-apple-darwin) failed: errno=13
...
Any ideas?
Did you restart BOINC client or only the BOINC manager ?
Which of your two Macs (probably the eight core host, as the 16 core got sah_v7 wus) ?
What do the first ca. 20 lines of event log look like ? Was the app_info.xml accepted without errors ?
That were the first lines from your stderr, like it can be found in the results list. I meant the "Event log", which can be reached through BOINC manager in Advanced View, menu "Advanced/Event Log". That should open in a new window.
The Process creation error points to a permissions or ownership problem. Stop the BOINC client and rerun the "BOINC installer.app" again. That should solve such problems.
Alternately you could set the permissions manually, using the Terminal.app (see Launchpad).

Thanks for your help! I did reinstall the BOINC client several times and I repaired permissions - to no avail :-(
Here is the output of the BOINC client:

Does that give enough additional information? Yes, enough.
You have no usable GPUs on that host, but BOINC interprets the app version in your app_info.xml file as if you're trying to use a CUDA app, but the GPU is gone.
As your second Mac can get work successful (i guess you have used an identical app_info.xml-section for setiathome_v7 on that host), the problem should not be server side.
Maybe some residue from earlier app_info experiments has been left accidentally on your host.
So, the setiathome project needs to be "cleaned" for proper work first. Your daily quota is down to 1, so there will not be (m)any wus left.
Copy the application files and the app_info.xml from your BOINC Data/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu directory to a safe place, so these do not get lost.
They will be needed again. Now open the "projects"-tab in BOINC managers advanced view and select the setiathome project. One of the buttons on the left says "Reset project", do it.
Now check that your "BOINC data/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu" directory is empty.
Next set the setiathome project to "No new work", as you want to use third party apps.
Now restart the BOINC client and check the first ca. 20 lines again. Are the messages about missing CUDA apps now gone for the SETI@home project ?
If so, you can quit BOINC client now and add the applications and files you stored in a safe place earlier again.
After starting BOINC, just to make sure, check the first ca. 20 lines again. Any sign of missing CUDA GPU in there, no,
then you should be good to start work fetch again.
Hopefully that works. (Pressing thumbs.) _\|/_

Hi Urs,
I did as you suggested. Then I reinstalled the BOINC client as well after copying the optimized apps back to the project folder. The first lines now read:

As you can see it does download and calculate a v.6.03 WU.
However, it still writes:
