World Community Grid - View Thread

This issue with the 2 .png files getting stuck is still a problem, and it would be nice if we got some kind of definitive diagnosis and fix. Please don't just tell me this is a BOINC version issue, because that is bunk, I have it happening on different computers running different versions of BOINC.

I periodically have these files trying to download and fail-fail-fail over and over until I notice that I have no new work crunching. The file downloads have to be aborted before new work will arrive.

And there seems to be no reason for it. Since I abort them every time, it is clear I don't need them to crunch WUs. Can someone please make it stop?

Thank you!

If your issue is the same issue, you will be able to clear the issue by forcing an update of the project (go into the BOINC Manager -> Projects Tab -> Select World Community Grid -> Press the 'Update' Button).

This will update your list of files to download to use the proper references.

If this does not solve your download problems, then your issue is a different issue. Please start a new thread and post your message logs in that thread so that we can see what is happening.
