HI,
I have been running into problems with my BOINC software for some time, when BOINC tries to download extra work, I get an error message as above.
Below is a copy of the lines I get in my message window:
2007-03-15 11:09:33 - Insufficient work; requesting more
2007-03-15 11:09:33 - Requesting 358 seconds of work
2007-03-15 11:09:33 - Sending request to scheduler: http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi
2007-03-15 11:09:37 - Scheduler RPC to http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi succeeded
2007-03-15 11:09:37 - SCHEDULER_REPLY::parse(): bad first tag <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\" ?>
2007-03-15 11:09:37 - Can\'t parse scheduler reply
2007-03-15 11:09:37 - Deferring communication with project for 1 minutes and 0 seconds

And the communication gets deferred for ever always unable to download more work.
Can somebody explain to me what is happening here and how I can fix it (I am not a computer genius...).

With many thanks
Chris

To follow-up on Mike\'s question:
The Scheduler Request is odd. What version of boinc are you running?
How are you attached to the CPDN Project? With http://climateprediction.net?
