Hi Zizou, and welcome to the team.
Have you managed to download "BOINC Manager"?
The latest download is v6.6.36

If you have succeded, you will be able to download all BOINC projects.

I think i have the latest version BOINC Manager
But my problem it's not the boinc Manager
boinc manager work perfectly  
My problem it's with the server as i said the client download, execute, upload perfectly that's why my credit is augmented.
But in the server side i never find Hello BOINC World in this folder "~/projects/hello/upload"

from what I can make out, Hello World is an application written by the guy that wrote Einstein@Home and Pirates@Home. It was his first attempt at writing a project.
So, its a test project, like compiling the uppercase application which a lot of projects start with.

Zizou, I don't think anyone here has any experience with what you're trying to do :?
but.. I would've thought the application would write its output into one of the ~/slots directories, try looking in there rather than the /~projects directory

hi zizou_fsegs
breafly, i m creating my own project which is: cracking DES algorithm using BOINC grid, but the grid until now not working with me. so before i learn writing application on boinc, i have to ensure that it is working.
and that,s it.
i make a good step until now,but i have some problems and i don't know the reasons.
so if you have time to talk about that, let me know and i will be so greatful to you.
thanks a lot.
