Hello everyone.

I've got an error message when I try to update the project. The message is the following:
23/08/2005 09:28:49|climateprediction.net|Message from server: (there was work but you don't have enough disk space allocated)
23/08/2005 09:28:49|climateprediction.net|Message from server: No disk space (you must free 100.0 MB before BOINC gets space). Review preferences for maximum disk space used.

I have checked many times my disk space preferences and they are OK. I have plenty of disk space available. This whole thing happened yesterday after the model crashed. In my effort to solve the problem, I re-installed BOINC but nothing happened. I still get the same error message.

Any help is welcome.
Thanks.

I solved this matter finally. I needed to set values in all disk space fields in my preferences. That's weird though because the project used to work just fine without them before crashing yesterday. I'm wondering what has changed.

What has changed, is probably the amount of space being taken up by old model data.
