Differences between results between Linux and Windows

I am using BOINC CC v5.2.7 on 2 Windows Clients (purcomp1 and purcomp2) and BOINC CC v5.2.7 on a Linux Box (whale.House). The Linux box has reported a number of results an credit has been granted in the My Grid section of the website. When clicking on the Device Installations link on the My Statistics, it suggests that only the Linux box is returning results.

I know that purcomp2 has returned at least 1 result, and I believe that it has returned 2, however there seems to be no record of it/them arriving at World Community Grid. Nor do they have any credit granted. Purcomp1 and purcomp2 are shown as being registered when viewed in the My Device tab.

I know that a quorum is required, but is this just for the Windows client? Have my results got to World Community Grid? Is there a simple way I can tell? I have had a look through the forums, but I can see anything obvious (I might not be looking hard enough).

I apologise in advance if this has been answered before, but hope I have given enough information for someone to give me some answers. I also appreciate that BOINC is not your first choice for this project – UD is, but I currently help out a number of projects through BOINC and would like to know if my work is being useful to you.

Re: Differences between results between Linux and Windows

Right now, there are a limited number of machines with BOINC on Windows, as a consequence, the results for Windows machines take longer to validate and show up in the My Grid section.

Re: Differences between results between Linux and Windows

Hello Steven Purvis,
The results page is supposed to show you results returned and awaiting validation. It has not been programmed yet. knreed says that this is a priority.

But for now, all I can say is: "Under Construction".

sigh,

Re: Differences between results between Linux and Windows

Same here at least 4 WU's returned over last 4 days, no credit and no sign of results even being recieved. OK credit takes time due to waiting for validation but I don't even know if the results arrived so I don't know if my work counts or if there is a problem with my computer
