Removed all files ... gives me same device twice

Hi there,

I am running boinc on two Linux systems. Yesterday I had a strange problem: the client stopped, all my running jobs vanished. On the first system, I could restart boinc without a problem. On the other system, I was told: "another instance already running".

I used the boincmgr to check ... and reset my complete project in the end.
Nothing did help. In the end, I removed the complete boinc directory and reinstalled ... now boinc is running again, but it looks like this "activated" a new device for my account.

So:
1) Is there any way to "merge" the two devices back into one for the statistics?
2) What is the "correct" way to solve such problems?

regards,

eg

Re: Removed all files ... gives me same device twice

Hello guntne,

Is thisproblem just with WCG,or,all experiments affected?
Also,have you tryed reinstalling Boinc,It will overwrite.Also
when I reapplied WCG,signed-up with my slugger name,and
experienced a few days of catching-up.Time may change it.Also for 5
days,in Mngr. WCG didnot have my teams name.Boinc Synergy.
smile Maybe time will tell.?Am sorry I cannot be of better help.
What Linux O.S. are you running on the Bad Box,which Boinc are you using 2.23 or newest 2.2.2.2.2.2.2.{I forget}Dohh crying

"Good luck"

Nope, you will have two devices ... madning isn't it ... unless, someone knows otherwise we are stuck with "new devices" everytime you have to re-install. rolling eyes
