Apparently there is a problem with the BOINC server after an OS upgrade to RHEL9. The server status display shows zero CMS tasks available even though there are jobs pending. This is affecting creation of new tasks, even though we do have some jobs being run.
We are working on a fix.

It looks like the jobs that are running are from tasks that were acquired before the problematic upgrade. I've not received any new tasks myself since Tuesday.

Hmm, I don't know. I just got the message from my Italian colleague, who is attending the Workshop, about the problem and that Laurence (who I presume is also at the workshop :-) is working on a fix.
