I just upgraded the Boinc client from 5 something to 6 something.
Lost all my work, lost the list of all my attached projects.
Basically, when you upgrade, it's a NEW install.
The programmers have decided it was a wonderful and marvelous addition to seperate out the data and program folders, so be careful.
I install all my DC related stuff to \dcprojects\Project name
So I had to choose advanced, it won't let you keep the programs and data files in the same location, like it used to, so now I have to use
\dcprojects\BOINC for the program files (big damn deal)
\dcprojects\BOINC\DATA\ for where the DATA is
In hindsight, I should have used
\dcprojects\BOINC\Apps for the program files
\dcprojects\BOINC\ for DATA, maybe I might not have lost everything. :dunno:
bastages I tell ya! You have been warned :jabber:
