The restart is not going well . Items as viewed from the outside
1. Server Status page has been showing errors and no action is being taken
2. No Work being generated for an extended period of days
3. no News or Status updates after the initial week pf restart.

The project appears to less than a real project and more like a "hobby" project.

Respectfully
Bill F
Projects can be short staffed, short of money. Be patient.

be patient? yes
but this is the third attempt to start this project
the first attempt in 2017
the second in 2019
and now in 2023
so don't expect much longevity from this project

Its not really "checking" your internet connection. It is more "mapping" the route data is traveling between locations. And that route can actually change between cycles. There was another project called Dimes (non-BOINC) years ago that did essentially the same "science" but it was discontinued. Basically the same piece of data could travel infinite different paths to get to the same location. In theory they are supposed to take the shortest path but lines get congested, hardware over tasked or down, some re-routed intentionally for various reasons (including tracking), etc.. In theory they could take this data and make smarter devices/networks to make things more efficient.



There was also a BOINC project that did something similar. Spiders? Depspid? Something like that.

Yes, DepSpid, that's right.

Fixed my can't get tasks problem. This project does not like Virtualbox version 5. I upgraded to 7 and it's ok. Cosmology only likes 5, it can get lost.

Of course a message telling me I needed version 7 would have been nice. I only found out by chance because I had one machine on version 7.

The solution was here https://uspex-at-home.ru/prediction/forum_thread.php?id=3&postid=8

Due to the peculiarities of using virtualization technology, the following approach is used:
one task per computer at a fixed point in time.
In the future, we plan to try an approach with two or more tasks per computer at a fixed point in time.


One task per BOINC client.

A PC can run more than 1 task at a time.

yes, with applications with 4Gio and 6Gio ram, it limits the number of wu.

Project is Windows only
and your host that gets work have this: virtualbox (7.0.6) installed, CPU has hardware virtualization support and it is enabled
the others not. and that may be the cause.

I think you're right.
I upgraded from virtualbox 5.1 to virtualbox 7.0.10 and I get wu.

Is there anything special this project needs to get work from ??? I have 7 Box's attached but only 1 of them gets any work, and even then only if I shut off any other work & do a manual update. All the box's have at least 8 to 64 GB of Memory. Even if I shut off work on the other Box's they simply won't download any work from this Project just the same box will ... Thanks

Yes I have the same problem on 2 PCs....
