Couldn't get new tasks [RESOLVED]

Hi can someone help me with this matter? i just finished one task, and am not receiving new ones. i tried to reset and update project in boinc manager...
nothing, change preferences at website, and also checked if my dysk/memory preferences are correct. and still nothing...
on the other hand poem@home is working with no problems at all... any ideas?

Kind regards,
Greg

Re: Couldn't get new tasks

Hi,

If you plz copy all your messages from last start to after the point where you get the "No work available / No work sent, check your option", we'll try and read what's going on.

Re: Couldn't get new tasks

Nothing in the log that's a red flag, but the *No* message that maybe work fetch for WCG is suspended? Have a look in the project Tab.

(It's kind of an absence that the work fetch suspend does not log a signal, but that has been forever.)

Re: Couldn't get new tasks

When a project is activated it sometimes takes a while before BOINC registers that a time share needs to be given to a previously suspended project. As for BOINC 7.0.25... works for lots of suspecting travelers and for the unsuspected it gives lots of head scratching behavior. It's already been binned [buggy] and ready to be replaced for a new version currently tested.

Glad you got work, so plz edit your Opening Post and insert [RESOLVED] in title

Happy crunching at WCG.

Re: Couldn't get new tasks [RESOLVED]

To add, whilst BOINC used to have the habit of keeping at least 1 task of an active project on the machine, your cache may have been bigger than it's maximum (Min Buffer + Max Additional Buffer), so maybe it just needed to drop below that Max.

Re: Couldn't get new tasks [RESOLVED]

To add more, this is the BOINC 7 FAQ Service write up: http://http://boincfaq.mundayweb.com/index.php?language=1&view=592 and what it says near the end (for the unsuspecting)
However, there is a bug in the software somewhere, one that's difficult to track and thus fix. This one comes into play when you run work from 2 or more projects. It'll happen that one project will be running work solely, while the others are fresh out of work.

Don't know why 7.0.25 was elevated to recommended and then saddle hundreds of thousands of volunteers and production grids with something not finished, and really, I've lost interest in the answer to that question.
