Switches between running and suspended every couple seconds (w/ error log)

Hey all,
Got the Android app a couple weeks ago and ran tasks straight through most of that time. It's a wifi-only home tablet, so I kept plugged in and just suspended work when I wanted to play games or conserve battery life. But a couple days ago, I closed the app.

When I went to restart the next day, I found the app just cycles between running and suspended every few seconds. Restarting the device does not change this behavior.

When I looked in the Event Log, I didn't find anything funny--til I restarted the device and checked again. First thing, the following shows up in "GUI Messages" (chronological order):

<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): java.io.IOException: Connection refused
<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at android.net.LocalSocketImpl.connectLocal(Native Method)
<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at android.net.LocalSocketImpl.connect(LocalSocketImpl.java:238)
<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at android.net.LocalSocket.connect(LocalSocket.java:98)

<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at edu.berkeley.boinc.client.Monitor.access$5(Monitor.java:328)
<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at edu.berkeley.boinc.client.Monitor.access$StatusUpdateTimerTask.run(Monitor.java:319)
<timestamp X> W/BOINC_GUI( 2058): at java.util.Timer$TimerImpl.run(Timer.java:284)
<timestamp X> E/BOINC_GUI( 2058): connection failed!
<later timestamp> W/BOINC_GUI( 2697): TasksActivity: Could not load data, clientStatus not initialized.

Running Android 4.1.1.
Please help my tablet get back to crunching--thanks! thinking

Re: Switches between running and suspended every couple seconds (w/ error log)

Clearing all app data and reassociating with WCG and WUs didn't seem to do it, but reinstalling the app itself seems to have cleared it up....

confused

Here's hoping!

Re: Switches between running and suspended every couple seconds (w/ error log) [RESOLVED]

E/BOINC_GUI( 2058): connection failed!
TasksActivity: Could not load data, clientStatus not initialized.


Though reading suggests the Android version of BOINC is a single app plus the science apps of WCG, the quoted lines suggest the core client was not running. For reference, the PC version consists of a core client aka daemon or just 'client' and the BOINC Manager graphical interface. They communicate with each other on the localhost IP, port 31416.

You don't tell what version of client you got, but 7.4.41 from the Google Play Store [GPS] is recommended v.v. the Process Independent Execution model [PIE] used in the compile. This one can be installed on Android 4.1 and up. For that matter all WCG science apps for Android are compiled that way and no longer run on Android earlier than 4.1

Keep hoping wink
