Not sure how long you have been running BOINC personally, but to "Stay up to date" with each new BOINC Client can be trying, especially if you like many of us are running both Linux and Windows machines. As a BOINC Alpha tester myself, it is my understanding of things there that each and every client version is tested for error first, before it has been released and validated as the new official client. So seeing as how the 5.10.28 Linux version was the stable one for awhile, to assume that users who get an error at one particular project (Who in this case runs a variety of different jobs), should assume its the clients error and thus go update it first is kinda sad. I have run this version of Linux on my newer pc for awhile now, running 32bit only and have not run into this error anywhere else but here, and on DDDT. Of course it seemed the first possible reason of the problem was thought to being my Pc with either a lack of Disk Space, and or Memory which also as I mentioned earlier, wasn't the case.

Is it possible that the new version of BOINC can and or does fix this issue ? Of course, but I still would not agree that its a client side only issue if it only happens here, seems to me that would indicate a problem in some part with the program here as well, but thats just my opinion right or wrong.



I didn't, and I wasn't when I had the error. Perhaps a list is in order of what not to do when running a project here if this is the possible causes and or remedies ?

G^R

Version 6 will be nice, but will also come with many headaches for awhile. But with progress come rewards and the need for aspirin.

Have seen a few of that particular error in the last week, but not heard of a cause.

Beta's are in preparation for DDDT & FAAH to use new libs/api and other features needed for the BOINC 6 release and keep them backward compatible for BOINC 5.xx. Please if you will would you sign up to test these on Linux. That will greatly assist in finding if the problem persists. The base 5.10.45 client is good as a reference for WCG. The Beta signup can be done here: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/device/viewBetaProfiles.do

thanks in advance for helping testing.

If you want to stay on the ball, sign up in your forum profile to get notified of BETA news: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/mywatch . Add the BETA forum (read only and BETA discussion) to the My Watch section. When they come you can push to get them by flushing your cache, change the profile to only fetch AC@H and beta. That should set you up when the tests come out.
