I am honestly suspecting the OP never attached to the project and considered that installing BOINC would be enough.
The decidedly poor feedback on suggestions and apparent lack of interest in trying to resolve this is pretty poor form as well.

Sorry if people think I'm being harsh, that's just how I see it.

I refer to the poor feedback from the OP. The folk here genuinely tried to help but it's very difficult when the person on the other end doesn't keep up their end of the discussion.

Is there a less manual or a more automated way to resolve crunching issues? Perhaps some kind of machine-to-machine communication? That might have saved the day, but even that requires some human effort to setup, operate and 'fill-in-the-blanks' for the machines (as machines can never fully translate the subtleties of meanings involved in human communication) -- a kind of effort which I sure didn't see from the concerned cruncher.

However, the said cruncher seems like a newbie* and newbies have a license to be-, and to appear to be-, not wanting to dance the Tango of troubleshooting. But the world has many problems to solve so newbies' license has to have a short period of expiration. If ambodach is listening, I tell you what: I'm sure WCG would be with me when I say that WCG would be willing to extend your license! But you have to do your part! You have to hold WCG's hand as much as you want WCG to hold your hand through the crunching issue you may be having. More to the point: please respond directly and point-for-point to the posts of CA SekeRob as the issue gets clarified and with it proposed solutions developed. If at the end of the day, your issue somehow turned out to be that one-of-a-kind issue that happens to be unresolvable, all of us would have at least known exactly what the nature of the issue is -- a.k.a "known issues".

Interesting that you used '00' rather than 'oo'. It's very clear to me now what you mean! But, I ask for your indulgence to give newbies (including James Bond without an i7 ) a more-than-the-usual caring hand. Understandably, the biggest obstacle happens when just starting out. I guess that ambodach is also new to computers, apart from being new to WCG, if not new to crunching altogether. In any case, we may have to also listen to what is not being said, and ambodach sure didn't tell us much, did he/she?

Dark Angel... Sorry I misunderstood your comment about the "poor feedback" . and yes, I agree with you... the OP needed to be more cooperative about the feedback.
