There is a version 5.2.11

This should clear problem if not come back and we try to help


Hi,

Thanks! I downloaded and installed version 5.2.11 and although at the beginning I got the same request from the server when trying to attach SETI@Home I opted not to detach the project and try again, but instead let the application run normally (with a scheduler request linked to the SETI@Home's URL)... A few minutes later the problem seemed to have cleared "by itself".

This is what I got from the server *after* the last account key request (and attachment failure):

Which password do you use? The one from Seti Classic won't work.

Either you can enter the account key at the 'password' prompt or you go previously to 'your account' -> 'change password' and set yourself a password which you use afterwards for the attachment.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I entered to my account settings and created a new password. That's the password I'm using when trying to attach SETI@Home. The server seems to acknowledge both my e-mail and my password but it keeps asking for my account key although I have no way to send it through the current dialog box used in the application to "attach using an existing account".

I'm downloading version 5.2.10 right now to see if it helps.

Victor.

P.S.: This is what I get from the server:

Hello:

I have linked my Seti@Home Classic Account to BOINC, but whenever I try to attach SETI@Home to BOINC ("using an existing account") it fails to do so. I go to the "messages" panel and see a message from the server that says "missing account key", however the "attach using an existing account" dialog box in BOINC doesn't ask for the account key. It just requires e-mail and password. I haven't found a way to attach the project through the web either.

I'm using version 5.2.8 with Win2K Pro.

Thanks in advance for your help and sorry if this has been asked before.

Victor.
