I just moved to the BOINC client from using the WCG client. It seems to have picked up my project, but when it starts up I get the Communication deferred message. Here is a copy of the messages:
3/15/2007 9:02:18 AM|World Community Grid|Sending scheduler request: Requested by user 3/15/2007 9:02:18 AM|World Community Grid|Requesting 8640 seconds of new work 3/15/2007 9:02:23 AM|World Community Grid|Scheduler RPC succeeded [server version 507] 3/15/2007 9:02:23 AM|World Community Grid|Message from server: Invalid or missing account key.

Do not click on the above partial URL. Instead, copy the entire line into your browser's address bar. The reason is that the forum software does not recognize URLs with a ' in them and cuts them short. Lawrence |

Thanks Lawrence, I appreciate the response. My question is, where should I input the account number? When I installed the code, it never prompted me to enter the info, perhaps because I already had an account? I would rather this be something I did wrong since it's much easier to fix.

We hope u downloaded the new version 5.8.15.... older versions would ask for the account key (copy past was best action).
----------------------------------------If you registered and did not tick 'existing member', it may have assumed still that u were already a member based on the known e-mail account, but put a different key on your machine? Project WCG reset should fix that possibly or simply detach and re-attach, than ticking the existing member box should simply ask for member name and password.

I detached and reattached and it works fine now. Funny thing is that there never was a check box. Yes, I've got he latest client.
Thanks for all your help! It's appreciated. |
