Hi Creekfella,

In your quest to find the problem, you've probably copied or created a cc_config.xml file in which there is this <log_flags> section with

<network_status_debug>1</network_status_debug>

All you need to do is open the file with an ASCII text editor and change the 1 to 0. On restart of BOINC or reading in the config file again via the advanced menu in BOINC Manager you'll be the message will be disabled.

Welcome and thanks for choosing to contribute your CPU cycles to WCG.

Thanks for the advice

I have edited the file cc_config.xml in the program data directory to read

<cc_config>
<log_flags>
<http_debug>0</http_debug>
<http_xfer_debug>0</http_xfer_debug>
<network_status_debug>0</network_status_debug>
</log_flags>
<options>
<http_1_0>0</http_1_0>
</options>
</cc_config>

I then reloaded BOINC and ran it but am still getting the message.

I did not mention earlier that this only happened after installing Windows 7 perhaps its related?

Best wishes

Creekfella

I did all that and the error reports kept coming! It was the only occurence of the file. In the end I deleted the cc_config.xml file and restarted BOINC and the error messages have ceased. There do not seem to be any negative results from deleting the file. Was it needed?

Anyway thanks for the suggestions

Creekfella

It's a riddle how the edited config file with the flag set to zero did not take effect. Deleting the file is fine as by default it is not created during the BOINC installation, no placeholder. Certain log flag defaults are hard-coded into the client.

At any rate if Creekfella could edit the opening post title and insert [RESOLVED] in there we can leave this thread for the archives.
