HDC starts from scratch after exit

Hi all,

my UD agent starts a HDC work unit from scratch when I exit the agent and start it again. This happens even when the agent has done plenty of the work (60% or so). What' wrong?

Re: HDC starts from scratch after exit

Hello joer01,
This is what happens if something stops the check point file from updating properly. What OS are you running? What security programs do you have on your computer?

Re: HDC starts from scratch after exit

Hi Lawrence,

I have Windows XP Pro, security programs are just McAfee Virus Scan Enterprise 8.0 with latest engine. I have local administrator rights, but can't controll the virus scaner.
The symtomes:
- If I don't stop the agent, everithing works.
- In the past HDC was able to stop and restart.

hmmmm there was the BOINC version question missing...McAfee has a bug (non compliance to standard network behaviour) which required upgrading to BOINC 5.4.11.....who knows
