I'm intrigued by
"Clearly, all of this will go again with the next restart into the trousers."

:) that is a common German phrase :)
"Es ging in die Hose."
means it didn't work.
although the direct (literal?) translation goes:
"it went into the pants"

@Morpheus:

Gern gescheh'n :)

LOL ! The word order confused me, I was tryinng to work out what a "restart into the trousers" was !

german grammar :)
in english grammar you would read:
"Clearly, all of this will go into the trousers again with the next restart."

still weird, but making a little more sense (if any) ;)
that's the problem if you try to translate complicated texts with Babelfish

Thanks a lot guys, but the box will be replaced soon, so I'm not wasting more time with it. My new PDC will be a one with four brains, probably a Q9550 with Win 2003 32 bit.

Run a couple of other BOINC projects in the mean time. Move the folder to the new machine when it comes.

Restarting task 07jl08ab.29468.10706.8.8.42_0 using setiathome_enhanced version 603
Task 07jl08ab.29468.10706.8.8.42_0 exited with zero status but no 'finished' file
If this happens repeatedly you may need to reset the project.

I can't attach to the Seti@Home project..are the servers messed up again?

If you're having attach problems, you should ask for assistance over in the Q&A forum.

Yeah, great help man! Should be written to the MS knowledge base ;-)))

OK, if I type the following URL in my browser: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php

I'm getting this answer:

So, what's wrong with lord sidious???

Server status reports the following:

BOINC replica database sidious Disabled

Is that true? Why is this preventing client from attaching?

If the database is down/disabled, you can't connect to it.

As to why it's down/disabled, we'll have to wait until someone has time to post an explination.
