I set default location to shool but the cli message shows no location for hom using your defaults. How will this work? greetz Mike ID: 1881 ·

Then update the preferences on the client. If you are on windows, right click on the project name "SETI@Home" on the Projects tab. Select "Update". ID: 1885 ·

One other thing, briefly select the option "Run Always" before doing the update, then after the update set it back to Run Based on Preferences. I think I noticed that it didn't do the update if you had it set to only do work when idle. ID: 1906 ·

General preferences and project preferences. The screen saver is part of the project preferences. There would be 4 lines in the log for preferences. ID: 2053 ·

Yes in my one year Beta Testi learned a lot of Boinc Cli and server, but i changed most of possibilities but it takes no affect. greetz Mike ID: 2134 ·

See this thread: http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah/forum_thread.php?id=424 I think preferences other than general do not work at all. I was only able to get the "work while idle" to function if I did not have a special set of preferences for the location of the computer (The Home location in my case). ID: 2400 ·
