I assume one of Petri's interim versions probably. Eventually he went with naming his apps the same as the stock app.
Whatever.
I have had no issues with my config files or getting work since I started with the FGRPB1G tasks.
I have always used Petri's apps. So never a chance to pollute or corrupt my client_state files with the stock application name.
I assume that the stock app name in the client_state is hs_gamma.
Why I posted earlier that you MUST use the name in the client_state file. It is the final arbiter of correctness.
[Edit] Went looking back through my archive of GR#1 apps from Petri and the one from Ian's forum post labeled "EINSTEIN FGRPB1G LINUX/NVIDIA SPECIAL APP "AIO"" contains the file named "Einstein_Special_v1.0" with the app_info with the app name of:
Ok I used your app_config and it's downloading gpu wu's and crunching two at a time although I get a Notice saying my app_config.xml file refers to an unknown application 'hs_gamma_FGRPB1G"
I'm sorry to say that your original query has been somewhat overwhelmed by an example of what happens when your thread gets hijacked and the discussion goes off on a tangent. During that diversion, an incorrect app name caused unrelated problems and confusion.
If you want to receive FGRPB1G tasks using app_config.xml, the correct short app name to use is hsgamma_FGRPB1G and NOT the version with the extra underscore (ie. hs_gamma_FGRPB1G is wrong).
Your initial message was about the download failure problem for the MeerKAT tasks (BRP7) and this was a server-side error that has now been fixed. If you want to do these MeerKAT tasks, just try again and the app will correctly download this time. Maybe you've seen this already if the BRP7 search is still enabled.
You originally must have had the BRP7 app because you have earlier completed tasks. At some point you must have done something to lose your copy (eg. like reset the project) and by that time something (possibly yesterday's server upgrade) had caused the problem that prevented you from downloading it again. That's all fixed now.

Thank you Gary I really appreciate this... I haven't had time to mess around with and had have the machine off but ill be back at it tomorrow now that I see what was wrong. :)
Thank you to everyone as well... this is very different than SETI was for some reason and I really miss searching for those possible Alien's haha!

Uhhhh, George . . . . my app_name is EXACTLY the same as the one you posted.
If you don't know the proper name of the application, you can always refer to the client_state.xml file and the name shown there.
This is what the names as defined in the client_state.xml are:
</project>
<app>
<name>hsgamma_FGRPB1G</name>
<user_friendly_name>Gamma-ray pulsar binary search #1 on GPUs</user_friendly_name>
<non_cpu_intensive>0</non_cpu_intensive>
</app>
<app>
<name>einsteinbinary_BRP7</name>
<user_friendly_name>Binary Radio Pulsar Search (MeerKAT)</user_friendly_name>
<non_cpu_intensive>0</non_cpu_intensive>
</app>
These are the names you MUST use in crafting your app_config.xml files.
If your client_state.xml files show different names for the applications, then you MUST use those.

there seems to be a difference between hsgamma_FGRPB1G (which is correct) and hs_gamma_FGRPB1G (which is incorrect) that folks aren't noticing.
Keith's app_config does not have the underscore between hs and gamma (hs_) so I'm not sure where that's coming from.

Okay Keith. I see what you're referring to... I think!
In my client_State file, my...

<non_cpu_intensive>0</non_cpu_intensive>

...is missing. Not present.
If I were to "add" it to the client_state file... would that be okay?

Please George, DO NOT edit your client_state files. You don't have enough knowledge to do so safely.
