Yesterday the server crashed during strong thunderstorm, as a result one of the tables ("workunit") was seriously damaged. I had to restore both "workunit" and "result" tables from backup, so unfortunately some of the workunits/results were lost.

I have 4 machines running the client, all but 1 are using BOINC 6.12. The other is running BOINC 6.10. The 6.12 clients all lost their workunits and backdated work done. Yet the 6.10 client machine kept running fine.

Perhaps there is a problem with the client-server protocols? But I suppose this is a BOINC issue rather than a specific project.

Hi =) i'm new to this. How do I get to see the screens that show what is going on?

Hi Jessica Gambino, welcome to Enigma@home!

do you mean in the BOINC manager? I don't think there are any screens. Most projects have them, but I don't think Enigma does. the Enigma server stats can be found here:

There are a lot of very good statistics sites for BOINC. Your page on BOINCstats shows this:

Good luck!

ATTN: CREATOR OF ENIGMA BOINC SOURCE CODE

In brief: About 20 years ago, a man murdered more than 30 people, one at a time, in creative and horrific ways. He narrowly escaped arrest, and has never been identified or found. He sent 2 encoded letters about himself to newspapers, and only the first was ever cracked. The second, he claimed, contains information about himself.

The code is written in shapes and symbols, and is 1 page long. That's all we know about it.

Can you do what the American FBI and the police could not?

Let me know.

That would be interesting.
A BOINC project that solves murders lol
But you would need access to that letter wouldn't ya?
But it's a very interesting idea for sure.

The letter is available--it was printed in newspapers, and I bet I can still get my hands on the copy I saw.
