Anyone here successfully running this project?

I added it a week or so ago and noticed I have a grand total of 0.00 credits!!

Looking into it it appears that every single result errors out in about a second... Is there something interesting going on that I need to fix or is it just the project?

Yeah, I do have VirtualBox installed. Will download and install a new copy as it may not be up-to-date...

I'll let you know if it helps. Smile

OK, downloaded the latest copy of VirtualBox and installed. Waited a day to get a new workunit (current allowance of 1 a day) and when I got in tonight another error. Downloaded a fresh unit (thankfully it hadn't done that whilst I was out) and tried again watching the system. Error.

Took ten minutes to go play on the website, FAQ & forum and ultimately found: you can not run this project if running BOINC as a Service or Deamon.

Detached from project, left the rest of you accumulate points. Sad

Ah well, I've probably got enough projects running for the one and a half machines I can run anyway... Confused
