I cannot seem to escape "Requesting 0 seconds of work".

Before going on vacation, everything was working well. On all projects (seti, climateprediction, einstein, milkyway) I did "No New Tasks" a few days before shutting down. When I got back 4 days ago, I did "Allow New Tasks" on all projects. At first, all projects would only say "Requesting 0 seconds of work", but after twiddling around with settings for disc usage and amount to download (and setting them back to original), Seti (and only Seti) is supplying work.

I have not updated BOINC client or manager or anything else. I'm running version 5.10.45-1ubuntu1 of both client and manager (latest available from apt-get), on Ubuntu 8.04 amd64. I have 9.32 GB free disc space, BOINC is using 177 MB, and each client is allowed to use 1 GB.

Please, does anyone have any suggestions or ideas why it stopped working?

Check this thread with regard to <time_stats>.

Time stats would stop the project from giving you work. It's not the cause of the client not asking for work.

Wrong, as you can see in the quoted thread:

While BOINC running, % of time work is allowed 16.879 %

Danke, Gundolf. Resetting debts in client_state.xml did the trick. BTW, there were no problems with <time_stats> or <duration_correction_factor>.
