this error appears maybe ten times in a row in about fifteen seconds every five minutes in the log.
no other project has this.
should i just detach the project, or is there a solution i fail to see?
i am running mint 16 on an asus® laptop with Intel® Core™ i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz [Family 6 Model 58 Stepping 9] (as reported by bam!) and all four processors are pegged at 100%.
i run the client from command line (renamed as just “boinc”).
thanks for any info you may have!

The WU that you have has now timed out as you received it in February. It appears that it is not going to finish and may not actually be doing anything.
I would either abort that task and get a new one or reset the project to clear out any problem files that may be in the project folder.

Then see how the next work unit runs.
