I ran it for a couple of months, but it didn't seem to be producing results. I stopped participating for nearly a year considering I kept getting error messages (like the ones shown in the many lines below). Then I tried a second time; I ran a couple of months; and stopped again because of error messages like below. This is my tertiary try to go BOINC operational, BUT what I am getting is an error message that go along recurring. I have flagged the error message down about xx inches into all the verbiage that follows. It is flagged between lines of dashes, like this: ------------ etc. I use to stand for with SETI and they'd reply questions. But with BOINC, I've non establish how to get answers yet. Can anyone advise me on the questions I raise about a foot downward, located between the lines of dashes? What follows is the Messages text that appears on my auto that results from downloading a piece of work unit: Work UNIT DOWNLOADED: Midweek Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Starting BOINC client version 5.10.29 for powerpc-apple-darwin Wed Dec 12 19:ten:29 2007||log flags: task, file_xfer, sched_ops Wed Dec 12 xix:x:29 2007||Libraries: libcurl/7.17.0 OpenSSL/0.9.7l zlib/1.2.3 Wednesday Dec 12 nineteen:10:29 2007||Data directory: /Library/Application Support/BOINC Data Wed December 12 19:10:29 2007||Processor: 2 Power Macintosh Power Macintosh [Power Macintosh Model PowerMac3,3] [AltiVec] Wed Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Processor features: Wednesday Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Bone: Darwin: 8.10.0 Wed December 12 19:ten:29 2007||Retentiveness: 896.00 MB concrete, 25.96 GB virtual Wed Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Disk: 31.71 GB full, 25.72 GB free Wed Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Local time is UTC -6 hours Wed Dec 12 19:ten:29 2007||No general preferences found - using BOINC defaults Midweek Dec 12 19:10:29 2007||Preferences limit retention usage when active to 448.00MB Wednesday Dec 12 nineteen:ten:29 2007||Preferences limit memory usage when idle to 806.40MB Midweek Dec 12 19:ten:29 2007||Preferences limit deejay usage to 9.31GB Wed December 12 xix:ten:29 2007||This computer is not attached to any projects Wed Dec 12 19:ten:29 2007||Visit http://boinc.berkeley.edu for instructions Wednesday Dec 12 19:xi:58 2007||Fetching configuration file from http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php Wed Dec 12 19:12:52 2007||Running CPU benchmarks Wed Dec 12 19:12:52 2007||Suspending computation - running CPU benchmarks Wed December 12 19:12:59 2007|SETI@home|Principal file download succeeded Midweek Dec 12 nineteen:13:04 2007|SETI@home|Sending scheduler request: Project initialization.

I suggest y'all try downloading BOINC Manager again, now that normality has returned. This should resolve the permissions problem you seem to have experienced. In the unlikely result that permissions notwithstanding need to be stock-still, you can do so as follows:- Quit BOINC Manager. Select the "setiathome.berkeley.edu" file.      This is to exist found on Difficult Disk in folder at Library/Application Support/BOINC Information/projects Get Info from the Finder File menu (or Cmd I). Open "Ownership & Permissions", and so "Details". If not already correct,       Unlock the padlock and set Owner to "boinc_master" and Group to "boinc_project" and lock padlock. Now that permissions for this folder are correct, click on "Employ to Enclosed Items" and close "Get Info".       (during this change of permissions, you will be asked for your password) Then restart BOINC Manager (from the dock) and all should be fine.

The download and reinstallation of BOINC Manager 5.ten.29 may well correct these anyway.

That y'all, Odysseus and Dotsch, cared plenty to offer some suggestions gave me encouragement to continue trying. Odysseus, your words were really encouraging.

And I couldn't discover any help at the time (like what you have offered). And at that signal, I just cut it all off. Merely now that things are finally working, seemingly, I'll stick with it. I am impressed by the numbers that are attached to your name! And that you have time for a problem like mine is a testament to your grapheme and friendliness. Many, many thanks for steering me. Oh, I also cutting off my anti-virus plan near 20 hours ago. And, after, things are working without the Mistake Messages I had been receiving for the last week. ID: 692835 ·

Many, many thanks for steering me. Non at all: glad to help—especially another PPC-Mac-user. ;) Oh, I also cut off my anti-virus programme about 20 hours agone. And, subsequently, things are working without the Error Messages I had been receiving for the concluding calendar week. Deplorable it didn’t occur to me sooner: I don’t run a continuous antivirus monitor. (I just practice occasional scans with ClamAV.) You may be able to keep using it, though, if you can tell it to ignore the BOINC Information folder; such programs normally have an exceptions list. ID: 692973 ·
