How do I stop getting the regular WCG tasks and only get the Beta tasks? I keep getting MCM tasks....


Set a profile to only OpenPandemics, and make sure 'If there is no work available....' is not checked.

Make sure that profile has Beta testing enabled.

since that app has no work you should only get Beta by default


This is my setup as well.
Looks like I downloaded 11 tasks on a PC and all had an error for 0.02 WUProp hours.


Are they cpu or gpu tasks?


The new CPU project.


Thanks!!

I am not sure if I missed an announcement but for over a week I can't get access to Free-DC web site.

Can anyone enlighten me on it's current status.

I mainly use this stat site and miss it a lot, if it needs some donations I would gladly donate.

Conan


I use it alot as well but it's down, at first it said because it wasn't using https and CloudFlare has blocked all sites that don't use it, BUT I've since seen it WITH the https and it still doesn't work.

Colour changes are a slow process but great when it happens.

Onward with the fun.

WOO HOO!!! Very nice there Steve!!


Steve is actually at his 31st (!) star, it was Dr. Who who scored his 16th and Steve was congratulating him.


You are correct, there's no way Ste\/e would be 'down' to a 16th Star!!

Either way, I wouldn't give support to the russian scientist of that project. Before long she'll con another admin into making another project only to later run it into the ground.


She hasn't been 'very nice' has she!! I do support her thru Boinc but not with anything else, Boinc crunching benefits me so I hold my nose and click to allow tasks.

I don't see hours for ODLK2025: Calc19Tuples being reported to WUProp.
This appears to be a new app.


NO it's not a new app, I've slowly been getting credits for awhile now:

20) Message boards : Number crunching : app_config.xml doesn't work. (Message 11312)

Post:
mikey, the app_config is for this project.

How are you starting the client?

I have an app_config working here at WUProp on every PC as I run 1 client for CPU work and a 2nd for GPU work. This includes Ubuntu 24


I do not use an app_config for wuprop, I just let it run on both Windows and Linux.

I start most clients by clicking on the Boinc icon, the latest Linux Mint though I'm running thru the command prompt, it's only running the LLMentorGrid tasks though so it's not really a big deal.

I do use an app_config file for most projects though to limit the number of tasks running at one time, ie 12 of these tasks and 10 of those tasks on my 12/24 core pc.
