For a couple of days, since the current project reached 100%, I\'ve been getting nothing but the following sequence of messages...but no new work. What gives?

It means that your computer keeps crashing the models it receives, and you\'ve reached your limit for the day. Now BOINC is waiting for tomorrow to get another one, and it\'ll probably crash that as well, unless you work out what is wrong and fix it.

The servers have become too sluggish to look at your models to see the error code, so I can\'t help much.
Perhaps if you copy and paste the messages from around the time the failure started it may help to work out the problem.
If there are lots of error 161, don\'t bother, because that\'s just a transfer error from after the crash.

The crashes seem to be all \'missing file\'. I wonder if you\'re using either Sophos or the Norton update from last friday? (The single norton update was broken and killed lots of EXEs, including excel, and one of the model files, while Sophos has a false positive which they haven\'t bothered fixing).
I'm a volunteer and my views are my own.

Hi, i have the same problem since two days.
This append since my computer finished his last work and want to start a new one.

After downloading (without error), the program try to start and fails with error message :

climateprediction.net - 2006-03-23 01:41:38 - Starting result hadcm3lb_564h_05029197_0 using hadcm3lb version 5.08
climateprediction.net - 2006-03-23 01:41:39 - Unrecoverable error for result hadcm3lb_564h_05029197_0 (Le fichier spécifié est introuvable. (0x2) - exit code 2 (0x2))

I tried to reset the whole project yesterday and have the same behaviour today.

If you\'re still running version 4.* BOINC you almost certainly need to upgrade to version 5 for the CM3 models. You\'ll have to uninstall the old version first.
