Description

I think BOINC Manager should :

  • Display next checkpoint time
  • When exit BOINC Manager, display a alert box/confirm that show the next checkpoint time and ask the user wait or not
#63 fixed Doesn't load properly, automatically at startup Bruce Allen KSMarksPsych
Description

Posted by: Date: 5:03 AM 03-24-2006 Loads in a non-usable form. Must be closed and manually loaded to work.

Posted by: waltg Date: 6:34 AM 03-28-2006 There isn't enough information in your description to tell whats going wrong. Please provide more details.

Posted by: Date: 6:04 PM 03-28-2006 I don't know what else to tell you. It was installed on two different computers. When it loads at startup it fails to connect. It must be closed and reloaded, manually, in order to work properly. Another item, while I am here, the program would accomplish much more if the graphics could be toned down a bit! Ed Davie

Failing to connect indicates Boinc Manager is starting OK, but times out before contacting the client. Some questions about your installation:

How is BOINC installed - service, single user or multi user?

Does this happen every time you log on, or just the first time you log on after booting Windows?

Is the BOINC Client program running when you get the "failed to load" message? The task manager will show that, press alt-ctrl-del to get the task manager, switch to the Processes tab and look for boinc.exe.

It might be that other programs starting at the same time are using up enough resources that the manager is timing out before the client starts. Two things to try:

-The development vertion might work better, the communications between Boinc Manager and the core client have improved since 5.2.10. Latest dev version is at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php?dev=1

-Use a utility to delay starting BOINC when you log on. One such utility (free) is DelayExec?, at http://www.rjlsoftware.com/software/utility/delayexec/ . That was provided as a workaround for but 423.

Posted by: Date: 3:37 AM 03-31-2006 This looks like possibly the same problem I have told Rom about and have seen posted recently on the UseNet? SETI group. I have had this happen consistently since at least 4.72. In a single-user install on Windows XP, after a restart and login, BOINC Manager appears in a text button in the task bar, but no icon is system tray. Left-click on task bar button does nothing. Right-click, minimize. right-click, restore opens Manager window. Cannot connect, but Task Manager shows boinc.exe is running. If you then exit and relaunch BOINC Manager, everything then works properly. I still see this on 5.3.30.

Probably fixed by now -- DPA

#64 fixed sometimes only one wu running on hyperthreading cpu davea KSMarksPsych
Description

Posted by: Date: 4:11 PM 04-09-2006 I have a P4 3.2Ghz Ht processor running windows XP. (hyper threading enabled) I have noticed that although I should be running 2 wu's all the time that sometimes when switching projects only 1 wu will be getting processed then at the next switch it will run 2 again. I am using v5.3.31 but I have noticed the same problem on all the earlier versions that I have run as well

Posted by: Date: 9:33 AM 04-12-2006 This only happened to me (5.2.13) if two results are finished at the same time and uploading. The only thing what you can do is to suspend one WU and resume again or update project manually.

Posted by: Date: 2:50 AM 07-23-2006 It happens on dual (physical) CPU systems too, usually in projects with very short running WUs, as those more likely end synchronous (CC 5.1.12)
