Hi

I have latest Mac OS X boinc version 7.2.28, running as a service (it's been like that for a long time), I come home in the evening and boinc isn't running.

I have to restart the service.

In stdoutdae.txt I see :

18-Nov-2013 15:46:57 [eon2] Sending scheduler request: Requested by project.
18-Nov-2013 15:46:57 [eon2] Not requesting tasks: don't need

18-Nov-2013 15:50:30 [WUProp@Home] Not requesting tasks: non CPU intensive
18-Nov-2013 15:50:32 [WUProp@Home] Scheduler request completed

... then nothing ! so I restart the service :

18-Nov-2013 19:43:29 [---] Starting BOINC client version 7.2.28 for x86_64-apple-darwin
18-Nov-2013 19:43:29 [---] log flags: file_xfer, sched_ops, task

18-Nov-2013 19:43:29 [---] Running as a daemon
etc.

It has happened a few times in the past with previous stable version, I never knew why.

Any idea ?

Oops it did it again !!!

Boinc manager says it is connected when it is not :



CPU activity shows only the nci project and T4T is running :







What the hell !!!


I only have to stop the service once since it then restarts automatically. So Mac OS X / boinc didn't "know" that boinc was actually "kind of stopped" (since T4T was still running and the nci project too)...
