I have recently added a few workstations to my account. All two of them took a while to start crunching, but one still has not received any tasks. This machine does have a different configuration compared to the others. It is machine ID: 10475984. I can see it on the web listed as one of my computers but it has not been issued any work units. Can someone help me build an app_config file. That may be the problem? Thank you in advance for any help or time spend on this issue, James |

The science part of this board may not be the ideal place to post a question like your´s. Be so kind as to continue the discussion in the relevant apps section. Meanwhile you may change your preferences for all of your hosts as they show a lot of errors in the logs: Max # CPUs -> 1 or 2 If this works you may increase the setting (up to 4). |

Okay thanks for the response. I will post it in the number crunching section. |

Okay I found the problem. Boinc was not finding Virtualbox. I install boinc, then Virtualbox on a headless workstation. Once I reinstalled Boinc it found the Virtualbox installation and the project downloaded work-units. |
