Cannot connect

Hello.

Wheneve I try to connect to RNA World project in BOINC Manager (by pressing Update button), communication is deferred by an hour and nothing happens. It has been going on for a week now. The log below says no tasks were assigned. Is there an error somewhere, or are there no tasks for my type of computer or anything else?

Can somebody advise, please.

Thank you.

Hi.
There are only a few tasks which are already given to other crunchers.
Only if one of them fails you have the slight possibility to get some work which might take months or even years to finish, but which also brings the not-too-small possibility to crash and fail.
I've been waiting for months to maybe get some work.

Yep. See the Server Status: https://www.rnaworld.de/rnaworld/server_status.php
There are 88 monsters left! All 88 are "In progress" (they are assigned), with 0 "Ready to send".
I'm on day 500, on one of them :)

Thanks a lot everyone for your responses, I did not realise there are so few tasks!

And if / when there are available tasks, will they be sent to me automatically or do I need to press Update in BOINC Manager?

Thank you.
Michael.

Sign up for (attach to) multiple projects. BOINC will then automatically contact the projects to try to get work, based on the resource shares that you assign to your attached projects. You don't need to click Update.
