I keep getting the problem that Boinc 4.19 keeps alternating between two projects but won't run the third even though there is work for all three. The three projets are Seti, Einstein, and Protein Preditor. The project tha gets missed varies, but over several hours I generally find that one of them hasn't run.

Have you set the priority for each in your settings?

I had a simular problem with the same three projects on one of my Linux boxes only S@H was the only one that would run. I had to reset all three and that seemed to straighten things out.

Projects that have no work (even for a couple of minutes) get their resource debt set to 0. This has the effect of delaying the start of that WU for a few hours.

The priority settings must be set to a positive value. This in all cases is 100. The computer gives each project 100/300 of the time. This has been working ok for months.

No all the projects have work. On one occassion two of the projects had asecond work unit available. One of them then alternated with the one that only had one work unit available, thus delaying the other project past the deadline.

I'm planning something more extreme. In a couple of weeks I'll be getting a new PC. Originally I planned to copy the directory straight to the new computer, but I think I'll just ditch the files and just set the projects up on the new machine. In the meaantime I think I'll leave them as they are as they do eventually get the projects done.
