dear boinc friends,

boinc has been working perfectly until a few days ago. i'm having the following problems:

1. boinc status indicates "waiting to run" for the only two studies i am participating in on the wcg: faah & hpf-phase2. it appears that boinc has been in this "paused" status for several days.

actions taken:

1. i completely uninstalled and then reinstalled boinc.
2. i stopped using bam and tried individual project management directly from the wcg.

the two actions above did not resolve the issue.

1. i completely uninstalled and then reinstalled boinc again.
2. i re-established the connection to my bam account and synced with boinc.

the two actions above did not resolve the issue.

in fact, now after connecting boinc to my bam account and syncing, NO studies are listed in boinc at all.

any suggestions?

equipment:
designated boinc computer
compaq presario x86 with 512mb ram 80gb hdd
os: lubuntu 12.04

I didn't know what other forum to post on, and I also don't know how to straight up contact someone FROM the BOINC project, so I'm just gonna go ahead and post here.

I set BOINC to run between 5pm and 6pm.

Outside of those times, from 6pm one day to 5pm the next day, BOINC likes to run by itself. Because of this, I've uninstalled BOINC and I will not be using it again.

What Boinc version is this On?

Where is the Actitity Menu set to? is it set to 'Run based on preferences' or is is it set to 'Run always'?

Where are you setting the restriction? at a Project's Computing Preferences page? or with Local Preferences? Local Preferences overide Web Preferences,
