Hi folks, first time poster here and beginning 1 Dec, received notices to upgrade (via Boinc mgr) to latest v7.2.33 from v7.2.28(?). So yesterday, 2 Dec, after all remaining WU's finished and uploaded, I upgraded to v7.2.33. However today, I check my account and find this error...

It just seems weird especially since I'm pretty sure all WU's rec'd were completed and uploaded for validation before the upgrade. Can someone explain this, obviously I'm missing something. Thanks!

That workunit is a VLAR (Very Low Angle Range), VLARs at present are only sent to CPUs as the GPU apps are more inefficient at doing VLARs,
If there is mis-communication with the server when doing a request and the Wu doesn't reach the client (or you do a project reset),
next request often is a GPU request, and since the fastest app version is filled first, ie the GPU apps, the server will expire the Wu because it can't be sent to the GPU.

Thanks Claggy for the response. I was doing CPU WUs before the upgrade and switched to GPU after the upgrade...son of a gun :/
