Hi All,

First thanks for the good advice on my previous post as my intel Solaris 10 box is happily chugging away.

Next question is why on a sparc 5 running Solaris 9 is this happening?

2006-05-04 19:04:34 [SETI@home] Restarting result 21fe99ab.20616.26513.686074.1.125_3 using setiathome version 4.02
2006-05-04 19:04:35 [SETI@home] Result 21fe99ab.20616.26513.686074.1.125_3 exited with zero status but no 'finished' file
2006-05-04 19:04:35 [SETI@home] If this happens repeatedly you may need to reset the project.
2006-05-04 19:04:35 [---] request_reschedule_cpus: process exited
2006-05-04 19:04:35 [---] schedule_cpus: must schedule
2006-05-04 19:04:35 [---] earliest deadline: 1147992197.000000 21fe99ab.20616.26513.686074.1.125_3

I keep getting this repeatedly over and over. Any info would be great as to why, please.

Thanks in advance,

Phil

It is a known problem in the older version 4 boinc clients. The boinc client sometimes did not get any status informations from the seti app. If it happens not to often, it is not problematic. If it happens permanently, it is problematic.

How often did it occour ?

Which boinc client do you use ?

Can you please post the $BOINCDIR/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu/stderr.txt.
