Post: Thank you sir! Some of the Astropulse I completed still are pending. It takes longer to receive credit? Check this out: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=7351404&offset=0&show_names=0&state=2&appid= |

Post: Thanks for the response. I searched around the message boards, but didn't see any post about emails. I understand about the SPAM potential hazzard, but team ownership comes with responsibilites. If a team owner becomes childish and SPAMs, I'm sure the members would leave the team. I have over 500 members in my group. Basically, I would like to do what SETI does to me once a year about donations (except I wouldn't ask for donations....I would ask for inactive members to consider coming back to SETI and crunching data). In the past, I would email members when the group consist of about 50 to 100, but now it would eat up too much of my time to copy and paste emails. I will check out some programs. A good parser program would work great. Search for the '@' symbol, the scan left until white space and scan right until white space. hmmmmm, if only I had the time. :) Have a good day. Josh |

HELP SAVE MY WU
(Message 654563)
Posted 5 Oct 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: Thanks for all the replies. Such friendly people on the boards. I actually have been copying the entire folder and after the installation, I would just paste the folder over the new ones and replace them. For some particular reason, I didn't work this morning. I got a system error. Oh well, this isn't the first WU I've lost in 8 years. :) |

HELP SAVE MY WU
(Message 654539)
Posted 5 Oct 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: I searched the forums and found no answer to my question. I work in the computer lab at my college. All computers are imaged, so I have to install BOINC after every restart. I have a big WU saved on my drive (that isn't imaged) and I want to copy and paste it into the BOINC folder so I can complete it. It's about 88% finished and I hate for it to get deleted. Where in all the installed BOINC files are the WU and what is the best way to get it going on this computer I'm currently using all day? Sincerely, Josh |

Question on Team Ownership Transfer.
(Message 652886)
Posted 2 Oct 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: Basicly, yes. I went under team management and viewed the log file and the member requesting team ownership was part of my team from 20 Sep 2007 11:04:02 UTC to 20 Sep 2007 11:04:37 UTC. There's no telling how many teams he did this to. |

Post:
After reading your test results, I'm unclear on something. Basically, you are saying that somebody joined my team, requested a team transfer, then quit the team. This resulted in my problem to deny the request for transfer? |

Question on Team Ownership Transfer.
(Message 645706)
Posted 21 Sep 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: Well, I wish the staff at SETI would not include the message (after 2 months with no reply, the member requesting the transfer would be giving the option to take over the team foundership) in their email if it doesn't work. About the PM to the other member, I looked all through the 200 members of my team and found no "Jake" who requested the transfer. In the end, I hope SETI puts together a better way of doing this process. |

Posted 20 Sep 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: Well, I did some more digging on why I can't deny my team transfer. This is what I came up with: 1) I found a log that shows SETI@home progress/work (or a passdown log, where each programmer communicates after changing shifts so that they don't run circles around each other.) Scroll down to 27 Oct 2006 and read what Rytis wrote: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/boinc/checkin_notes?rev=1.4384;content-type=text%2Fplain 2) I experimented with the links. The link I was getting in my email was the following: http://seti.........team_change_founder_form.php?teamid=110064 This link bypassed my attempt to deny the request to hand over my ownership. 3) So I tried replacing team_change_founder_form.php to: http://seti.....team_change_founder_action.php. This took me to a page that stated: "Unable to handle request" with this error: "missing or bad parameter: action". I also tried the (new) link: http://seti.....team_founder_transfer_action.php That resulted in the same "Unable to handle request" page. I think this is a problem that's out of my hands. Hopefully the staff at SETI will fix this situation soon. I have 1 month and 29 days left before I lose my foundership of my team: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/team_display.php?teamid=110064 Is there anybody else out there having a similar problem? Sincerely, Josh |

Question on Team Ownership Transfer.
(Message 644993)
Posted 20 Sep 2007 by Josh Yates
Post: I post this thread because I can't not find an answer anywhere to my problem. Over the past 6 months, I have received many automated SETI@home emails stated that a group member of my team wants to retain ownership. I wish to deny this request due to the fact I established this team in 1999 and as of today still crushing SETI units. Here is the email I received: -------------------- Team member Jake has asked that you transfer foundership of U.S. Marine Corps in SETI@home. Please visit http://setiathome.berkeley.edu//team_change_founder_form.php?teamid=110064 to transfer foundersnip or decline user's request. If you do not respond to this request within two months, Jake will be given the option to become the team founder. Please do not respond to this email. The mailbox is not monitored and the email was sent using an automated system. ------------------------- When I click on the link to deny the user's request, I go straight to a page where I HAVE TO CHOOSE a new founder and not giving the option to deny. Why can't I deny the request? I have 2 months to find out or I lose my ownership of the team I created 8 years ago. Sincerely, Josh. PS: I posted this same message under team recruitment, which I believe is the wrong topic for my problem. sorry. |
