Left my computer running over night and looked in the morning and Boinc had stopped running. Restarted it and it\'s running fine again but does anyone know what this means?

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

I used to see this a lot on seti@home work units on my laptop when they were preempted by LHC. I haven't seen it in a while though. Have you upgraded to boinc version 4.09 yet? that may have been what fixed it for me.

&gt; stopped running. Restarted it and it's running fine again but does anyone know
&gt; what this means?

&gt; process state 8

Process state 8 indicates that CPDN is in a limbo state. BOINC has detected that the hadsm3_* program has exited, but can't find the file it's supposed to create when it exits.

It's bound to be something to do with BOINC stopping and being restarted. Were there any error messages before this one?
