Config message?

I'm getting a strange message when I start up BOINC.

Example from this morning;-
23/11/2012 09:40:55 |  | Unrecognized tag in cc_config.xml: <zero_debts>

I think it's happened since I last upgraded BOINC. I haven't modified the config file so I wondered where this has come from? It doesn't seem to be causing any issues, it just pops up every time I start BOINC.

Hi Jeff,

It's the upgrade that did it.

From the 7.0.26 --> 7.0.27 change log:

"client: remove <std_debug> log flag.
client: remove <zero_debts> config option."

I'm guessing you upgraded from pre 7.26 to post 7.26?

Debts aren't used in 7.x.xx versions so the flags were (eventually) removed.

It won't do any harm, Boinc will simply flag up the error and ignore it each time you re-start.

Mark

Cheers for the info, that'll be it as I jumped from 6. something to this latest level. I'd held off on going to 7 after I'd had a couple of funny issues the first time I tried it.
