Unrecoverable error

From the Wiki: Unrecoverable error for result '(result)' (The system cannot find the file specified. (0x2) - exit code 2 (0x2))

Quote:

This Message indicates that the files for the Result data, the Result Data File(s), cannot be located, is corrupt, or that there is some other error with the file system that prevents the BOINC Daemon or the Science Application from accessing the file.

If this happens regularly you may want to have your computer tested. If it is a computer running Microsoft Windows®, you can use the "check disk" program to test for, and fix, errors.

Note, you may have to reboot the computer to get the repair process started. This is because the Operating System "owns" the disk drive and it cannot be pried out of its "grubby" mitts.

If that clears up the problem, you may be good to go. If the problem occurs regularly and the "check disk" program if repairing each time it is run, well, you need to budget for a new disk drive.
