WCG Detatched my Work Units

I have an i7 with 8 cores and lost all my work units (8 work units were running) - so i could have lost approximatly 80 hours of credit! - I did not detatch!

Re: WCG Detached my Work Units

Mark, plz start by posting a copy of the message log from before these results were 'detached'. Old messages are in the stdoutdae.txt file. Without that we can't help you understand why that happened.

Generally these detaches has nothing to do with a specific science [DSFL] i.e. I'll ask the admin to move to the BOINC Support forum.

You might still be able to. Under Linux there's a file called stdoutdae.txt in the BOINC data directory and I assume it's the same with Windows. That file contains the log output from the BOINC client and you can most probably find the relevant entries there...

See my previous post quoted below with bold highlight.

With that additional information of the self-reboot aka system crash [why not included?], it's likely the control files got corrupted. Is the computer now crunching again without you having to add WCG back as project?

Let us know what the stdoutdae.txt file says. The location is printed at start of client log for example on Linux:

Sun 18 Jan 2011 12:44:06 AM CEST | | Data directory: /var/lib/boinc-client
