I think I've seen this discussed someplace, but can't find the thread. Please redirect me if you see it.
Anyway, Linux client 3.18, Debian testing/unstable. Something very bad happened last night while I was watching fireworks. It was so bad that I can't even find the logfile anymore :(. Well... I'm such a klutz that I blasted the logfile.
So, I went to restart boinc and got "another copy is already running" so I:
$ mv lockfile lockfile.was
And then:
$ ./boinc_3.18_i686-pc-linux-gnu

It looks like some or all of the XML files in my boinc directory got hosed. So, How to fix this?
I could re-register and merge the new and old incarnations of this computer. Is there a way to do it without dumping my WU cache? Or is it already too late for that?
Thanks
