We will need to see the messages from under your BOINC Manager "Messages" tab. What version of BOINC are you running? Have you changed anything lately? Also, have you checked to make sure your firewall isn't blocking BOINC?

When my system has done this... I have reset the project and it has resumed operation immediately.

Resetting the project is a last ditch effort. Other things should be tried first. The simplest is to allow the client to do it's job. When running multiple projects it is normal for projects not to have work from time to time. Reducing the queue size may help reduce frequency of this occurance.

Work Scheduler EDF (earliest

Work Scheduler
EDF (earliest date first) is caused by:

1) A deadline within 24 hours.
2) A deadline within 2 * the connect time.
3) A failure of the Round Robin simulator to finish a result within 90% of its deadline.

A project not requesting work is caused by:
1) A host that is in NWF (no work fetch)
2) A project that has enough work on a host that has enough work.
3) A project that has a LTD that is negative enough.

NWF (no work fetch) is caused by:
1) A failure of the Round Robin simulator to get a result done within 90% of a deadline if the resource share of the next project to request work from is added to the Round Robin simulation.

Work will always be requested from somewhere, even if that somewhere has a very negative LTD and/or the host is in NWF (no work fetch) if there is a CPU that is idle and there is a network connection.

Hi there, I am having a

Hi there, I am having a similar problem. I'm hooked up to 4 projects and at some point 104MB or so of data was downloaded, and to date, as far as I can tell, none of them have been worked on. I tried clicking Update to see if that would do anything, and it didn't, it just says "Scheduler Request Pending". I guess I really don't understand what I'm supposed to do to get it to work.

Also, I see menu choices like "Run based on preferences". Where can I set these preferences?

Here are my messages for today if they will help figuring out why no work is being done. My computer isn't on all day, but probably a few hours a day at least. I tried going into the Account Manager to see if that would do anything, but it said Failed to connect at the end. It does say "Connected to localhost" though.

Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated!

You are trying to use the Account Manager to attach to Einstein?

This is a future option that's being tested at this moent. There is no Account Manager yet, but for in pre-Beta. If you want to attach to projects, use the Attach to Project option, please.

Thanks, that is how I've been

Thanks, that is how I've been attached. I thought I'd try the Account Manager to see if it would tell me how to make BOINC process the data. Do I need to attach every day? They seem to be attached, there's 4 projects that have downloaded 104MB total, but I can't get them to process. At least I don't think they're processing. Is there a way to tell?

I'm having a similar problem with E@h, and the log entries when I "Update" the project (using BOINC Menubar 5.2.13 (v4) / Mac OS 10.3.9) look just like the above, mutus mutandis. AFAICT the system in question—one of three I have, all using the same general prefs: resource shares S@h 200 / E@h 100 —hasn't downloaded any work from E@h in over a week (it did process two WUs and receive credit, so it's not that it isn't properly attached) but is continuing to crunch for S@h. It may be relevant that the system is only available to run BOINC intermittently, going a couple of days at a time without checking in. But I don't think it's considered overcommited, because it has already downloaded extra work from S@h. Is there some way to 'nudge' it to download new E@h work?

Odysseus,

Sure - tell it No New Work for Seti.
