This machine, which has 30% quota set is not getting any Docking work. Other machines are. I can see that there are server issues right now, but this has been the case for a while now.

Work fetch is enabled, or so it seems at least. I used to be able to see what was going on by looking at the messages when I clicked update for the project, but I made the mistake of upgrading to the latest BOINC, and cannot do that any more.

Hi,

Thanks for letting us know, which BOINC client version are you using? Did you try ---> Advanced ---> Event log to see the log file?

Thanks,
Boyu

7.0.25.

No, I hadn't but I have now!

Machine is still free of Docking units though, says not requesting, which is odd. Ah well...

Could you please try detach D@H and attach again on the host that has problems? Sometimes the configurations can have strange problems.

Thanks!
Boyu

I have set all other projects to no new tasks and it is running down at the moment, if that fails, I'll try.

When BOINC got no choice but to do a Docking or leave a core idle, it did download one. There must be something screwy with the work fetch parameters.
