    It's a good point.

    I recently added some code to the scheduler that's designed to 'punish' machines that always fail to complete their workunits successfully. See the FAQ page for an explanation of the logic. The bottom line is that in the future such machines can only trash around 1 WU/day/CPU.

      David Anderson and I have checked this into the main branch of BOINC, so I think the answer is that it will be the default configuration. Of course projects that want a different policy can modify the scheduler to do as they like.

      Cheers,

        You usually get this when you try to start BOINC while there is already another instance running. In rare cases this also happens when there is a problem with access rights (Boinc installed as a different user than who tries to run it now).
