Hello, Good question, it seems to have happened to my hosts as well so I it might ecen affect all users. :/ We do seem to be exporting the stats still (no errors and XMLs in place) and the stats shown on our site seems to be fine. For example, you have 28 hosts here, with 12 having credited and 9 have contacted our server today so far. Also, the stats inside our project on boincstats seems to be unaffected so it might only be the link between global accounts/hosts and project specific ones that is broken on boincstats. I've seen this happen before and it sometimes happens when CPID changes due to changes like switching BOINC Client version. This hasn't happened at the moment so I hope it's just a bug on their end that'll sort itself out over time. Let's keep an eye on this but at the moment I feel it's something on the boincstats end. Especially since I can't see same problem on other stats sites, except they don't seem to be showing hosts at all (probably because it can be unreliable). -w |

Thanks for looking at it. All of those hosts no longer have any stats for moo, it's like the project was stripped from them. Should I try a CPID refresh on boinc stats? |

Definitely not a CPID refresh .... only do that after asking at BOINCStats, it can introduce hassles if in fact there are background issues. CPID can get hairy at times, its always best left to BOINCStats to sort out automatically, albeit sometimes takes a few days to resettle. I'd give it another 3 days, then if its not back to normal post at BOINCStats. You have not - and will not - loose anything long term despite what you see on the surface. Give it 3 days, then post at BOINCStats Forum - CPID Issues Regards Zy |

Thanks man! I'm trying to be dedicated to this project, I just added (4) 5970s and built 2 more rigs for it. Can't wait for the 7990s to come out. |

The laptop gpu's aren't capable enough while the desktop only has pci slots, no pci-e or even agp slots in it! One of the desktops has 2 gpu's in it, so it sort of makes up for it! |

You do IT? I'm always hiring .... ;) We have lots of fun and get to play on some awesome equipment. |

You do IT? I'm always hiring .... ;) Yes I do IT but am really not interested in working anymore. I am a retired f/f after 24 years, 6 in the US Navy before that, and have a pension that pays me well enough to be able to crunch and 'play' with my pc's here at home. I have 16 pc's here at home running right now, all but 2 crunching. The 2 non crunchers are my wifes Mac and my wifes work supplied laptop. I say I do IT but I do not have any certificates and am all self taught, I am good at local tech support but am lost at server level stuff. I used to work part-time for a local gov't and was in charge of one agencies 1200 pc's and their replacements. I did first contact tech support, made sure it was plugged in, drivers, user created issues, etc. But I referred the other stuff to the 'official' IT folks, I worked for the Agency not the IT Dept. In the pc replacements area I had to coordinate the replacement of every pc in our Agency every 4 to 5 years, depending on the source, feds or local, plus get people the desktop printers they needed to do their job, again thru the feds or local. I had 1700 users I supported spread out over 400 square miles, your County I think, and had 5 main offices and about half a dozen several smaller ones too! |
