Post: I have a system that can't complete the download of new tasks. They hang on Download Pending Status and never show progress. I have reset the project and I am open for suggestions. My next thought would be to remove the Project from that system and re-add it.

Post: I've added credit badges. The first badge is given for 1,000,000 total credit, the last badge is given for 1,000,000,000 total credit. I chose 1 million as an entry level because there are already 258 users above that value and their contribution is 97.2% of project's total credit. So if you've been active on the project, you should already have one of these badges. These look great ... goals to work for ! Bill F |

New MAC Boinc Client 7.8.6
(Message 705)
Posted 17 Jan 2018 by Bill F
Post: BOINC 7.8.6 for Mac OS is now available on the primary BOINC Download Site: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php From Charlie Fenton ... This is a release for Macintosh only; there are no changes from 7.8.3, 7.8.4 or 7.8.5 affecting the code for any other platform. It fixes a couple of Mac-only bugs in 7.8.5: * Reliably installs the BOINC screensaver (unless asked not to do so.) * Fixes a bug which could prevent determining the correct size of RAM when run on versions of OS X older than OS 10.11. |
