Also, is there a question you have? If how to overcome the download error, perhaps ask at Einstein? Maybe that they require a BOINC 7 to run these tasks. All your errors are of files it cannot find. So can also be something on your end that blocks the download of these tasks, firewall, anti-malware programs etc. |

Also, is there a question you have? Have done, should have posted there, not here. I had no question as such, as other tasks same app, download and run fine. It looks like almost all the quorum partners had the same downloading problem as well. |

Einstein has multiple download servers, in different time zones around the world. Sometimes there are problems or delays in distributing the master copies of files to all the mirror servers in time for the first work requests. ChristianB recently wrote new client code so that, if a file is missing from the first server it tries, it tries one of the others instead. But until that new client has been built and is in widespread use, if the file is missing from the first server you try, it's missing, and treated as an error. You could always try moving closer to the master data source in Hannover, Germany... |
