The LHC Schedulers are refusing to let me download new work units. 9/2/2005 4:58:51 PM|LHC@home|Message from server: Need major version 4 of the BOINC core client. You have 5. |

As you yourself have said - it's a development version. The Version 5 clients do not work with the public projects as all the public projects (LHC included) are on Version 4 server software. If you want to run any of the BOINC projects you'll need a version 4 client. Gaspode the UnDressed http://www.littlevale.co.uk |

I have been running it with no problems for two days now, and it has downloaded new units with no problem. Regards, Bob P. |

The LHC@Home project is currently running on a version 4 server in <B>production[/b] mode. One doesn't fiddle with production servers unless it's absolutely nesessary. If you want to run BOINC 5 try Einstein (currently the only public project accepting V5 clients as far as I'm aware). If you want to run LHC@Home run BOINC 4.xx.

Do you want to get banned for 31 years, your account and credits deleted at a Boinc project ? Predictor@home is your best choice. |

It's not I who wants to run LHC@Home, it's CERN that wants me to run it. If they don't want me to run it for the time being, that's fine by me. BOINC will retry every few days to check to see if they value my contributions. The great thing about BOINC is that it'll run other projects in the meantime. |

The BOINC devs have asked that all projects update their server version sometime in the next 2 to 3 weeks so that they can release version 5 to the masses before the end of September. Until then...it's development..put up with it. Live long and crunch. Paul (S@H1 8888) BOINC/SAH BETA |

Major software changes are best alpha tested, then beta tested, then released in a controlled fashion. They'll likely try it out at the alpha sites first.. . LHC alpha site: http://lhcathome-alpha.cern.ch/ Seti Alpha site http://isaac.ssl.berkeley.edu/alpha/ I'm not the LHC Alex. Just a number cruncher like everyone else here. |

After some final polishing by the development team, it should be a nice upgrade for everyone. :) Regards, Bob P. |
