1) Message boards : Number crunching : Бесконечная регистрация пользователей (Message 527) Posted 6 Oct 2023 by Dr Who Fan Post: I never said they write anything. I said :) I don't understand the purpose of registering bots. Idea of spam bots are to register, not participate in crunch tasks, clog up the user list with fake accounts, not post in forums to start, then suddenly start posting SPAM/SCAM messages to forums using the fake profiles.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Exit status 1 (0x00000001) Unknown error code (Message 324) Posted 17 Aug 2023 by Dr Who Fan Post: ... Could this be the reason? Can you double check your settings for host 30? Nothing wrong with that computer. It's primary/BOOT OS is Ubuntu Linux 18.04 LTS and runs BOINC using WINE. Wine (originally an acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator") is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, macOS, & BSD. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate Windows applications into your desktop. I don't have any extra Windows licenses and don't want to waste $$$ acquiring any license for a 2nd handed free computer that didn't have a hard drive when given to me. It doesn't have Virtual Box installed under WINE since the BOINC projects I run on it don't need it and this project doesn't use it either. BOINC 7.16.20 is the most recent version that installs and runs without freezes & crashes under WINE. This should not make a difference. I have WINE configured to simulate "Microsoft Windows 7" [Ultimate N x64 Edition, Service Pack 1, (06.01.7601.00)]. Like I said in previous post there's several other BOINC projects that the Windows apps won't run under WINE on this PC, which is fine by me and not worth time to troubleshoot.

Will just stop trying to get this project to run under WINE. Have other projects with Windows exclusive tasks working fine.

5) Message boards : Number crunching : Exit status 1 (0x00000001) Unknown error code (Message 261) Posted 6 Aug 2023 by Dr Who Fan Post: Why do any tasks I run on my PC #30 crash after a few seconds with Exit status 1 (0x00000001) Unknown error code? Computer is running Windows BOINC version 7.16.20 under LINUX WINE WINDOWS EMULATOR. Task 542325 Stderr output <core_client_version>7.16.20</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> Invalid function. (0x1) - exit code 1 (0x1)</message> ]]> I have seen this on several other BOINC projects and never got answers from them... I'm going to guess that it has something to with what compilers were used to create the executable program.
