Message 1087 - Posted: 19 Apr 2008 | 17:29:15 UTC

hi everyone,

my boinc manager says in the category \"messages\":
\"You used the wrong URL for this project\"
\"the correct URL is http://www.ps3grid.net/\"

currently in my xml files i can find:
\"http://www.ps3grid.net/PS3GRID/\"

but when i try to change the url boinc bam (i am using this account manager) makes my manager to generate 2 projects with the same name...

how can i change the url, so that new jobs can be downloaded?

Hello s_bieles

I am not familiar with BAM. But the normal fix for the message..\"You used the wrong URL for this project\" (you must have tried to attached with the old \'http://www.ps3grid.net/PS3GRID\' URL) , is to \'Detach\' from the project (after completing any WU\'s you may have recieved if possible).

Then \'ATTACH\' to the project again, using the NEW Correct URL.

Which is in the case \'http://www.ps3grid.net/\'.

thanks for your answer

i tried this several times but the problem with bam still occures:
when bam synchronizes with the server, where my projects are registered (like ps3grid), boinc automatically creates a \"new\" project in my projects-list of my computer using the old url

Inform BAM they need to change the URL. It was my understanding if they change it BAM will automatically update your clients with the correct URL.

Yep, that´s right. They did the same at Cosmo last week I think...
The only bad thing about that is, that you´ll loose your WU in progress because if Willy changes the URL - BOINC detaches from PS3GRID and reattaches to the new URL...
