I want to contribute to Cancer related research exclusively. I have already selected Mapping Cancer Markers in Available Projects and Help Fight Childhood Cancer in Intermittent Projects in My Projects page, but tasks from other projects keep being executed... How can I do this? Thank you!

I have already selected Mapping Cancer Markers in Available Projects and Help Fight Childhood Cancer in Intermittent Projects in My Projects page, but tasks from other projects keep being executed... How can I do this? Thank you! On the profiles page there is an option to 'allow other projects work' the full text is If there is no work available for the project(s) I have selected above, please send me work from another project.ensure this line is unticked/not selected/unchecked. Also ensure the correct machine is assigned to the correct profile. Then go into BOINC>Tools>Computer Preferences and click the 'Clear' button and 'Yes' this will clear local preferences and reload from the web - the profile you just updated...

Might want to reconsider before deselecting "Send me something if MCM isn't available". Better to contribute to these other fine projects then to let your computer power go to waste!

I want to contribute to Cancer related research exclusively. I have already selected Mapping Cancer Markers in Available Projects and Help Fight Childhood Cancer in Intermittent Projects in My Projects page, but tasks from other projects keep being executed... How can I do this? Thank you! As was proposed, deselect the 'If there is no work for...' and confirm in My projects that MCM is ticked, then re-save. Either way, your event/message log would be of great interest, so we can read the work fetch sequence. Chances are, you've not looked in there [open BOINC Manager and hit Ctrl+Shft+E to see] and your client is getting e.g. a 'not enough memory for', which is 400MB for MCM. It will then go out to fetch other work when 'If there is no work for..." is ticked. Once you found the event log, post everything from the top down for our review. |
