Hello, I was just re-setting up an old computer for boinc and added the LHC and Rosetta tasks, but can never seem to actually get any tasks downloaded.

I originally downloaded Boinc + virtual box, then downloaded it without, and have now reinstalled it with virtual box again. It always gives me the communications deferred message even when I set the preferences to no limits on the cpu, gpu, or network.

Not sure what to try next.

Thanks!!

current install with virtual box log:

Best always ask work related problems on the project forums. Because your BOINC seems to work fine, that's what we can help with.
Checking the Rosetta forums I found this thread with a lot of people showing download problems: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=15103&sort_style=&start=80

LHC Sixtrack may not have had tasks available at the time your BOINC requested work, that happens. But also check their forums and server status pages.
