After reseting BOINC did not resume the current task (Result ID 6999441, Work unit ID 6107510), but downloaded another. The task is still on the disk. Can it be continued? How to \"point\" the manager on this uncompleted task? ID: 31944 · Reply Quote

(Is that what you mean by \"still on disk\'?) There is no other way. To restore a backup folder, follow Les\' \"How To\": http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=4890&nowrap=true#25344 "We have met the enemy and he is us." -- Pogo Greetings from coastal Washington state, the scenic US Pacific Northwest.

It\'s not enough to just have a folder with that name. Backups: Here ID: 31947 · Reply Quote

Just to add a bit, the model MUST appear in the Tasks tab of your BOINC manager. It\'s not enough to just have a folder with that name. It is NOT appearing in the Tasks tab... Can I manipulate files in the folder to make it appear? ID: 31948 · Reply Quote
