Oh? What's that then Pooh Bear 27? Is it to do with the state correctional system? Was there a bug in 5.8.8?

As I understand it, it was a bug for several versions, before. Why people could not get 10 days of work, when asking for 10 days, etc.

I knew I shouldn't have broken down and installed ...11 on my systems. I see they're offering ....15 now.

5.8.15 already?

I wonder if it has anything to do with my observations that it halts all tasks due to "waiting for memory" and also halts all tasks for "suspended - user is active".

And yes I had the "Do work while computer in use" set to yes.

Basically I have had PCs which have been running 24/7 OK before 5.8... to being 'stuck' with these 'errors' after upgrading.

I reported these here;

Stops the error "No Finished File" and a few other small bug fixes.

I was getting that error. It was a bug. It was driving me crazy, ok maybe it wasn't only that, but it was not helping....

The test in a small environment, yes. They also put them out for users to test, but many users will not, so the errors do not get seen until it goes into full production.

Having all sorts of joy on this one. Seti worked just fine with no fiddling what so ever. Rosetta needed a detach/reattach but has been just peachy since and is sending me updates. ABC however refuses to play nice. If I detach and reattach it will send me a batch of units but once my machine starts replying it wont grab any new ones. Which means every couple of days I get to detach/reattach yet again. Hoping it will work itself out in the end.

Well, I installed it, too, and I still have the same annoying problem with climateprediction which refuses to update since Feb.21. I get this message over and over again: scheduler request failed: server returned nothing. I have posted on the BOINC forum but perhaps my fellow knights, of well known superior intelligence if not wit, will help me with this conundrum? If not, I shall be forced to abort!!

Congratulations, you should have let us know you were preggers. I hope it's not another Mildew Love Child, 'cos the homicidal fluff-ball with the sharp pointy teeth can get very jealous.....
