I just encountered a situation that I don’t think I have seen in more than 10 years of running CPDN. The 4 running WU’s suddenly stopped by themselves and the 4 waiting to run started. Please advise. As far as I know I did nothing to cause this. 1/7/2019 3:47:20 PM | climateprediction.net | Task wah2_sas50_rcab_201803_10_775_011686895_0 postponed for 600 seconds: Waiting to acquire slot directory lock.

I've had this happen a couple times in 5 years. Somehow Window got itself tangled up. I just exited BOINC and restarted and all was well. |

Thanks an exit and restart fixed the problem. I should have through of that myself. |

Probably Not. Today's Operating Systems are just too complex and continually updated to eliminate all bugs. I still reboot all my machines once a week -- whether they need it or not! Sad but true. |
