I'm receiving no credit, although the WU was finished in time. Obviously it was given out several times and another user finished it before me...

That work unit shows a Checked Skipped error, thats the reason you got no Credit ...

I think it shows this error, because a result already had been returned. If you take a look at the WU you see the outcome is "success".

The WU ID shows this (Workunit error - check skipped) which is a fairly common error across the BOINC Projects. As long as it shows that you won't get any Credit unless the Dev's intervene & manually give you Credit for it ... Sorry

This is a variation of the bug where a computer misses deadline, the WU is sent out again, then the earlier computer sends in a result (after its deadline, but before the next computer returns the result).

The WU was set to 2 retries, and also had the "total" limit set to three, meaning only the first three returned results will be allowed. Because of the above bug, your result was number four, so it was rejected even though it crunched successfully and was returned well before your deadline.

Same problem here https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/workunit.php?wuid=8358471

8 hours crunching lost. Not happy.
