1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : I miss the old SETI@Home (Message 2874) Posted 30 Jan 2006 by AndyGB Post: All Sorry to hijack this thread, but as a BOINC "virgin", I'm still struggling to get the SETI@home project up and running on my home PC, and I was hoping that one of you could help me out. I've downloaded the BOINC manager s/ware, and every time I run it, I get as far as the Project URL pane, where I'm asked to insert the URL of the project I want to connect to. Thing is, everytime I insert http://setiathome.berkeley.edu (with or without a terminating slash at the end of the URL) the system comes back and tells me that this is not the URL of a BOINC-based project, despite the fact that that's the URL quoted on the SETI@home pages - and in all the Emails I've received from SETI@home advising me that I need to move from Classic to BOINC. Is this a known problem - or am I just unlucky? Can any of you suggest a fix / point me in the right direction to get this problem sorted? Thanks in anticipation!
