I have installed lhc one week ago.
Impossible to get any wu

I had running boinc for 6 monts (seti and climate) without pb

I know there is sometimes no works available on the server, but it the last week I have observed that few computer had run wu..
The folder corresponding to LCH (BOINC/BOINC/lhcathome.cern.ch) is empty: is it normal?

Thanks
Mr Deban

PS:sorry my poor english

You have it backwards, sometimes there is work. One week without work here is expected, months is the proper timeframe when looking for work. For example I got work in november, october and june, but not in september, august or july. November has been a really good month so far I had work on 2 different days and the month is only half over.

edit: Wanted to add that I don't think all of my hosts have work at the same time yet this year.

Hello,

Thanks to anwser me Keck.

I saw that about 20 wu was distributed today...sometimes few to the same user

Perhaps nobody can answer me: but what is the process to be eligible for receiving wu?

Many salutations to all crunchers

Random chance. Requesting work when there is work.

By the way, there are dozens of forum threads asking the same thing (read this one). Search in forums if your question is already asked before you ask it yourself. Same applies for any forum in the whole Internet: search before asking.
