Think I did start it accidentally while I was messing around trying to delete those snapshots, will bear in mind for future, thanks.

Well the WU just failed, so i guess dont worry about it, hopefully if I get a new one it will all be ok.

Ok I found the replay file, unfortunately I cant understand it as Im not familiar with the syntax, any pointers on keywords to search for?

Hmm, Im now getting BOINC Manager saying:
Postponed: VM Hypervisor failed to enter an online state in a timely fashion.

So I need more help, sorry you will have to explain 'The replay file in the slot directory', where is the slot directory located?

OK I managed to delete the newest and 21 day old snapshots by restoring the 22 day old snapshot, which created a save of the current state. This then allowed me to delete the most recent and the 21 day old snapshots. I did this by pure trial and error, but it seems to be working, I will have to see ...

Sorry its taken me a while to respond, I do see the 20 minute activity issue then it stops. I exited Boinc (stopped all crunching) and opened the VirtualBox manager, I actually have 3 snapshots, one from today, one from 21 days ago and one from 22 days ago. Problem is I cant delete the one from 22 o...

Hi so I stated crunching and it went well for a while (Im at 1.4% completion), then I started seeing this and since it never seems to actually start crunching again. Does anyone know what its waiting for?

The deadline has passed, could that be it? In the past the deadline didn't cause an issue....

Phew! Thanks, can you advise when you will do it next please?

Task 14924199
WU 6330853
I had not asked for an increased deadline as I was only 25% way through crunching, then the task failed unexpectedly, please can someone give me the credit?

So Im pleased to report a WU with CPU time over 25 hours now, the Application name has changed, looking at the task history all the ones that failed were: cmsearch VM (VirtualBox) 1.0.2 1.0 6 (vbox64) Whereas the one I seem to be crunching well is: cmsearch VM (VirtualBox) 1.0.2 1.0 8 (vbox64) Hope ...

Ok I noticed in the VirtualBox that all of the failed tasks Im getting are leaving an Inaccessible image (error -103). I do also use the VirtualBox to run other guest OS's, for example Im looking around Win Server 2012 on an evaluation copy right now, and Im looking at PuppyLinux as well. Im vaguely...

I just saw the new BOINC version 7.2.33 so updated to that.

If my WU failures are helping the project that is fine, will keep running the project, don't care about scores or leader-boards, Im doing it for other reasons

Thanks to everyone on the forum, good luck.
