1) Message boards : Projects : Radioactive@home Message 117431 Posted 19 days ago by Petrctale	Could not log in to Radioactive@home but Google AI said The BOINC project Radioactive@home has shut down. It appears to have been permanently discontinued following the passing of its lead scientist, Prof. Krzysztof Belczynski. While a server maintenance person continued to handle the servers in their free time, funding has ended, and a successor for the scientific research could not be found. The project is considered finished. Funding for the project ended at the end of August. A new scientific team has not been found to continue the research. The server maintenance person is keeping the servers running until a successor is found or the servers are officially shut down. Is google confusing Universe with Radioactive.
2) Message boards : Questions and problems : "Invalid client RPC password. Try reinstalling BOINC" From Win 11 running WSL2 concurrently Message 116556 Posted 5 Aug 2025 by Petrctale	I believe I figured out what boincs doing but not sure how. Boinc client and manager are running and computing concurrently on win 11 and wsl2. However the win11 version keeps finding the Linux bonic password and trys to us it for win. I don't use a phone for win11 boinc. I've deleted the password file from the win ver but when wsl is enabled it recreates and boinc win11 mgr won't connectto the client.. I can't figure out where windows boinc is finding this password from as I thought the two OS where separate. I have reinstalled boinc on win in Boinc2 files. Didn't help. Just trying to get Win11 Manager to connect with the client. Thanks
3) Message boards : Questions and problems : "Invalid client RPC password. Try reinstalling BOINC" From Win 11 running WSL2 concurrently Message 116512 Posted 30 Jul 2025 by Petrctale	When starting BOINC on WIN 11, I get the error message "Invalid client RPC password. Try reinstalling BOINC" after installing BOINC Ubuntu on WSL2 and WSL2 is running. BOINC runs great on both WSL2 or WIN 11, but not concurrently. Windows BOINC will run fine if WSL2 and Windows Virtual Machine Platform are disabled, but when enabled I get the error message "Invalid client RPC password. Try reinstalling BOINC". The 'gui_rpc_auth.cfg file exists in windows not sure in linux. I've tried reinstalling Win boinc but doesn't help. I think the two installations may be interfering with each other somewhere but can't figure out if it's a port problem, resource problem or thier trying to access the same files, permissions? I assumed this would not be a problem since they run on different OS. They where running fine concurrently when first installed but it seems this started after upgrading boinc not sure though. any suggestions? Thanks
4) Message boards : Questions and problems : Questions about processing speed Message 116273 Posted 25 Jun 2025 by Petrctale	Is measured floating point speed or integer speed any indication of processing speed for projects? If not what to use as a guide? I have a motherboard and PSU, and can get an I7-7700k and 32 GB memory for about $80. Should I work with this or just put the money into something more current?
5) Message boards : The Lounge : CPUcoin scam? Message 100753 Posted 15 Sep 2020 by Petrctale	I recently came across an article stating that they are dealing with David Andersen and have partnered with boinc to mine cpucoin to advance covid research. Saying it's using WCG Open Pandenic and Rosetta (no other projects) to earn coins. Seems to me there would have been some sorta announcement. Is this true? Any comments?
6) Message boards : Android : BOINC projects running under Android 10 Message 100216 Posted 4 Aug 2020 by Petrctale	Great minds think a like. 😃 I did pretty much the same thing. My galaxy S9+ 8 cores threads what evers under the hood, was severely over heating and caused the battery to buldge cracking the screen, and it would stop processing to cool down way to much doubling the run time when it was runny all WCG then switching to Rosetta. I adjusted the setting to constantly run 4 rosetta@home wu, 2 open pandemics wu, and 2 mapping cancer markers wu. Now it runs unbelievabley cool and has sped up running times considerably. Now I'm playing with differant combinations to see what results I get. Just FYI SZtay safe people
