Hi folks, I had given my system a break over the holidays and upon selecting "Allow New Work" the message section of BIONC initially stated something like "No Work Available" ( I might be wrong here but didn't get any work units ). The thing looked like it paused for 3 minutes and tried again with same result. After a while I recieved a message about not enough disk space but that seemed odd as I have 7G free preferences set to 100% if needed.

I noticed another message similiar to "Communcation and Work halted due to User Active". Believe this was after a WU had 'started downloading' but froze while downloading. Looking around I found one of my general preferences ( Do work while computer is in use?) set to NO. I changed it to YES and still nothing seemed to be happening.

After much fooling about with "Suspending", "Updating", "Detaching" & "Attaching to a Project" on the BOINC projects window section, I downloaded all the ROSETTA files and 1 WU which completed today.

My results page still shows 2 more WUs "In Progress" which is doubtful at best. I think they are missing in action due to all the stuff going on with my tinkering.

Please advise on resolution for removing them and requeueing them for processing.

As soon as the deadline passes they will be re-issued automagically.

Paul is correct... to add: they may be "ghost results".

Yeah. Always TRY not to screw things up, but when something does go wrong, you can just leave the orphaned WUs to die. Once the deadline hits, they'll be canceled on your account and reissued to other boincers.
