(moderation:
Hello everybody,
I have the following problem:
According to my account statistics I should have 4 WU here in progress but I haven't. And the client won't sent new ones because I reached my daily quota.

I cannot commit to providing an answer to your posting (lack of experience), but it would be helpful if you would let us see more of your files by un-hiding your computer(s). Just a suggestion, which could lend itself to a more defined solution.

Sorry, I looked through the posts more carefully and I think I have the "Ghost WU"
problem (at least it seems so).
But thank you anyway.

It could be that four of the first 5 work units that you received went beyond their deadlines, resulting in “no credit” for these units. Could this be the case, recalling back in your memory?
Also, with the units you have just received, is one of the units currently processing?

As I said, according to my account there should be 4 units on my computer and they should be processing. But here is no unit.

I really don't know what to do. Maybe I should reset the project?
RE: A view minutes ago, E@H

I wouldn’t recommend doing that, you may just have to wait for the 16 hours to elasp and re-adjust your preferences.
How are you connected to the Internet?
Do you think you missed any deadlines?
How many projects are you subscribed to?
If you do a reset your going to lose your 1 work unit that has achieved some credit, think carefully and consider adjusting your preferences.
Take care,

]How are you connected to the Internet?
Via, the network of my university.
Do you think you missed any deadlines?
I think so, I wasn't here last week and when I came back the client went inot panic mode. Some of my WU's had no chance to finish in time, so I aborted them.
I got several errors (you see all the "client error computing")
How many projects are you subscribed to?
I'm subscribed to 3 projects: S@H, E@H and climateprediction
Another thing I just found out is that in the einstein directory, thre is a
WU lying around. But the boinc manager doesn't show it.
Knowing what you have just

Knowing what you have just told me, I’d say that your computer some how was disconnected from the Internet or shut down during your time away from the university. As a suggestion only,
I would changes the “Preferences” for E@H to 300, which is the time that will be allotted for E@H only (100%), leave it at this setting until your client stabilizes and after stabilization occurs then go back and re-set your time allotment to 100, meaning 1/3 (33%)for each of your three projects.
Just an idea, hope this helps!?

Ok, I'll try that and thank you very much.

Good luck and hope everything turns out, but remember "Reset" is not an acceptable word and should things not proceed as planned, come back and I’m sure other E@H’ers may also have helpful suggestions.
