What do you mean by "not recognised by the server"?


Are they showing as having been sent to you, but not listed on your computer?
Have you processed them and sent them back and are now showing as "validation pending"?
Are they completed but stuck on your machine?

or what?

Is your issue that they are not displayed as uploaded on your host? If so a quick look at the Server Status shows [As of 10 Feb 2016, 6:10:05 UTC] Replica seconds behind master 10,091. Which means everything displayed is about 3 hours behind.

If its were only 1 unit, i woudn´t "cry", but they are 77 units in all.

Is it host 7832058?
Do you still see the tasks on your BOINC client?
If the tasks are not on your system are you sure they are not ghosts? You can check job_log_setiathome.berkeley.edu.txt for tasks IDs to verify they were completed on your host.

they are not ghosts?


Good question, who answers it ?

But off all, could be anything done that the tasks will be deleted ?

They never will be crunshed by me, hopefully there will be a "CANCEL" button some in the future to stop it !? 8)

btw, i must correct me, there are 63 tasks on 30 Jan 2016, overall it abou 80 !!! tasks they would never be crunshed by me, they are lost at me.

But i think it no matter (hopeing) ?

Seems like that host just has many ghosts. So no wasted compute time for you. The system is designed to handle this situation by letting tasks expire on the deadline. So there isn't really any issue for the project. That solution is sometimes just a little annoying to users.

If the data issue can be sorted out then task resend could be enabled again. Letting ghost tasks be sent to client machines instead of waiting for the deadline to expire. However that requires time, money, & expertise that the project doesn't currently have. So we live with ghost tasks for now.

I got shocked, first reaction was to detach the project, now the tasks are all ABORTED.

What a favor.

They are "Abandoned" which is different term.
What did you expect the detach will do? - it removes all traces of the project from computer

I'm not sure if BOINC tells the server you did a detach/Remove
If yes - then they are marked "Abandoned" at that moment
If not - they are marked "Abandoned" at the moment you attach/Add again the project
