Do I need to upgrade to
a BOINC 7.8 and the associated VirtualBox?

Yes, boinc.berkeley.edu Boinc 7.8.3 and Virtualbox 5.1.26 is there for download!


Doesn't reply to the question:
Do I need to upgrade to 7.8.3? (I.E. is there something in 7.6.33 [or VB 5.0...] that causes this app to "compute error" after about 2 minutes of runtime?...)

I'm also having problems getting the Theory app to run on either of the machines I run LHC on - two different machines,
both with Boinc 7.6.33 and VirtualBox 5.0.18 installed and running. Both should have more than enough RAM 12Gb on one,
(A12) and 8 Gb on the other (A10). Is there a known problem getting this app to run on AMD CPU chips? Do I need to upgrade to
a BOINC 7.8 and the associated VirtualBox?

"LHC@home 1.0 | Server can't open log file (../log_boinc05/scheduler.log)"


this (in other projects that I run) usually means that the log file has expanded to the point that it has run out of disk space... drain the log file and we should be back in business...

It's a good idea to participate in more than one Project as there is no guarantee that a Project will always be able to pump sufficient work to the clients. I run SETI@Home(cam be kind of chancy since they have some server issues), Einstein@Home, and Test4Theory@Home (a spinoff of LHC@Home using the Oracle Virtual Machine as a virtual Linux "box" under BOINC running CERN application).

Generally, this combination keeps me busy. SETI is down right now so I have them Suspended just so BOINC doesn't keep hammering away trying to find work that doesn't exist.

SETI is back in business...
