I decided to crunch this project again after a long break. Added 2 new Android devices to my account, one of them, no problem, the other one added fine except it just didn't show up. It picked up work but was not there under my account. I traced one of the work units to a brand new account under my name! I've no idea what happened, I only have one Boinc account and I use the same EMail and password on every project I do. Can someone explain how I can merge the accounts or even if its possible keeping in mind that I cannot access this new account. Here's the problem https://moowrap.net/user_search.php?action=search&search_string=Pete+Broad&country=any&profile=either&team=either&search_type=date&action=Search EDIT, I've noticed that the hours accrued from my "new" account are being added to my WUProp account! If there's no solution I'll remove the new account once the Work has completed and try adding it again. Thanks, Pete |

O.K, i found that when I was adding the account I unknowingly pressed a key which changed my email address..oops. Not too sure if I can go into this account, remove the letter I added and then correct the email address in order to transfer the credits over to my correct account? Anyway, I might try this later. Also, while adding some more androids to my account I discovered that Android 8.1 causes an instant failure, presumably it's not supported? Cheers, Pete |

No, this will not work, merging accounts is not supported by BOINC. Just remove Moo! Wrapper on that device and add it again using the right account. |

Yes Moowrapper is very weird. I've been searching for a description of the strange behavior of this project and can find nothing. There should be a pinned link explaining what to expect. E.g., two computers both with a pair of 1080 Ti's and one gets "0.2 CPUs + 2 NVIDIA GPUs (devices 0, 1)" and the other gets "0.25 CPUs + 1 NVIDIA GPU (device 0)" for no apparent reason. The GPU Utilization is so low I'd normally run two WUs per GPU but this project is so odd I have no idea what I should do. Also the MW Preferences have so many options that all use "pipe" but when I search this website for pipe I get nothing. And it sometimes just throws off 100% Cumputation Erros that seems to be mitigated if I reboot the computer. |
