Did i miss something or why a lot of WU are reported and not receive credit?

Some Examples:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1008437760

A 110,605.21 secs of work loosed?

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=2536125396

This time 33,793.52 sec...

I have few other examples on the pendings list.

Juan, that WU was sent out June 10th. It was returned by computer 6681093 and timed out on computer 6274311. It was then sent to you on July 5th. Then the timed out WU was returned and validated apx. 1/2 hour before you reported. Now your stuck. This is an infrequent problem AP V6. It takes manual intervention by the lab to clear and seems to be a low priority item. I have a couple, one dating from 18 May 2012

IIRC it was fixed on the previous version of AP but somehow missed on this version.

This has nothing to to with AP it happens for MB also.
If credit is already granted before the third result comes in manual action is needed.

I am not sure what you are talking about but I also have a problem and would like to know how to fix it if it can be fixed. Can this be explain to me if this is a problem.
It says on some of the work units that if it continues that I should reset seti.
The work unit is done but it comes up that there is no out file. What should I do let me know what to do? I am not sure how to mark it and put on here.

scruffy.

Of the 19 errored task on this host, only one has finished with computation error, the rest was abandoned. And the one has an exit status of "194 (0xc2) EXIT_ABORTED_BY_CLIENT", which doesn't tell us much.

If you want to post the part of your logfile with the error message, go to the BOINC event log (ctrl+shift+E from the advanced view), highlight the lines and click "Copy selected messages". Then paste them here.

In the Boinc Manager, projectts, commands, reset the project.

When eveything fails, i reinstall all from zero (including a diferent directory), you must know, this is the last resort, so use only in extreame situations when nothing else works, but sometimes is the only option.

Remember if you choose to do that, you will losse all the settings (including the host ID but that you could fix before). To be sure all is fine, use a new instalation file, DL all again from the sites (Driver, Boinc, etc) and install all from clean instalation.

Resetting the project is often a Red Herring, it happens because the client looses contact with the app, normally because of the anti-virus, try excluding the Boinc Data directory from being scanned by your scanner.
