5.8.15 is due to be the next public release
5.8.15 is currently been tested and if all goes well this will be the next public release, it will fix the messages some people were getting regarding WU's exiting with zero status.
Also you no longer need to stop BOINC anymore to upgrade the installer will stop BOINC for you upgrade to new version then launch as normal 8)
Works with Windows anyway don't know about Mac or Linux

thats because they both have the feature built in, its been tested properly now, as some Windows machines would not let it workDJH@GB-Ro wrote:I didn't have to stop BOINC for version 5.8.8 or 5.8.11

Pretty sure its the new scheduling / work managment code it was "broken" in all the others but now its been fixed. So its not really been stopped its just BOINC is working the code correctly now. Its to try and stop a user having loads of work that then may come back overdueDJH@GB-Ro wrote:Do you know why they stopped versions later than 5.4.11 being able to 'force' new work fetches by suspending individual results? I had to roll back to 5.4.11 in order to fetch some SAP WUs

The projects aren't keen on people stocking up on work (after all, they want it done ASAP, not stored), but on the other hand us participants like to control what we're running. Since the standard Boinc is written by project staff ....DJH@GB-Ro wrote:It makes sense, it's not often a person needs to stock up due to work running out on a soon to finish project, i.e. SAP.UBT - Halifax--lad wrote:Its to try and stop a user having loads of work that then may come back overdue
I'm nice and sensible and only got a number I can crunch well before the deadlines with a 24/7 computer :angel11: . SAP's my favourite project now, pity I only signed up recently and missed its prime :(MikeMarsUK wrote:The projects aren't keen on people stocking up on work (after all, they want it done ASAP, not stored), but on the other hand us participants like to control what we're running.
