I've run BOINC tasks for 17 years without problems. Recently, SETI@home indicated they needed to pause and process the results they'd collected. At that time I swapped out SETI@home for Asteroids@home. In the three weeks since I made the change I've noticed that Asteriods@home is not doing any work. (Einstein@home continues to work just fine.) I've set the preferences for A@H to be the same as the preferences for S@H and E@H, but it does not make any difference. What am I missing? (I also decided to add LHC@home and Rosetta@home, and they do not show any work either. Only E@H continues to work.) Please help.

Last modified: 2 Apr 2020, 8:35:21 UTC I have exactly the same problem for the same reason, attached to Asteroids@home a few days ago because SETI is hibernating. No work so far. I also attached to GPU Grid, same thing. I have also been attached to Milkyway@home for some time and it continues to run fine. I am also running a desktop PC with Windows 10. What have we missed? |

I've recently installed asteroids and have received work units. Though many problems can interfere with processing or server comms, try this link of someone else trying to solve a similar issue. The commentary is applicable. https://boinc.bakerlab.org/forum_thread.php?id=6221

sometimes this project has no "Tasks ready to send" so check the project status page under "Computing status -> Work#" http://asteroidsathome.net/boinc/server_status.php "less than a pixel" |

It took a few days but today I started getting work from both my new projects. GPU Grid now shows up on my BOINC project list but Asteroids still does not. A member recommended I check my preferences to make sure each project is enabled to export stats, but I don't see a field or tab anywhere for that. Can anyone tell me where the setting to export stats is located?

After doing some additional searching and reading, I made changes to the BOINC Computing Preferences. Use at most 100% of the CPU's Use at most 70% of the CPU Time Suspend when non-BOINC CPU Usage is above 25% Those changes seem to have resolved the problem. I am now seeing progress on all four projects I'm participating in. S. Graham PA, United States |
