Message 1934006 - Posted: 6 May 2018, 16:24:03 UTC

A linux machine running boinc-client has no monitor
plugged in and after a couple minutes up time
boinc-client starts writing "No protocol specified"
to /var/log/boincerr.log once every second. Forever.

boinc-client runs fine. seti tasks run fine.
boincmgr (ver 7.6.31) , run via ssh from
another machine, runs fine.
The message on boincerr.log seems completely pointless
and is a waste of flash-disc update cycles.

Why doesn't the message repeat-time back-off so the rate goes asymptotically to zero?
Or something.

Is there a way to suppress this message?
Thanks for any suggestions.
