On one of my Boinc configured machines I started getting a message yesterday saying:

2005-04-21 06:51:35 [SETI@home] Message from server: Invalid or missing account key. Visit this project's web site to get an account key.

I've been running 4.25 v2 on three Mac OS X 10.3.9 machines for about a week or so with no problems. I've quit and restarted, deleted and re-added the project a couple times with no change in status on this one machine. Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks!

Sean

Make sure when you add the URL and Account ID there is no leading or trailing spaces. Also, make sure you are using the correct ID, the one from the e-mail, not the one on your account, or the cross project ID.

Is the last one a Mac, also, because according to your account it looks like it might be a Windows machine with not enought memory. You need 64M memory after OS and overhead. So, 96M or 128M in order to do this. It reports only 63.51M to Seti.

Any of these help?

Thanks! After deleting the project and re-adding it I was using the account number from my acount web page rather than the email.

All is well again on the Mac.

The PC I'll put back on SETI@Home classic!

A common confusion about the difference between account number and account key (account id) - believe me, your not the only one ;)

I've had that message on when I tried to attach to certain projects through BOINC Menubar - Depending on the project I either had to include or omit the "http://". I don't think that applies to Terminal-based BOINC.
