I managed to receive a small number of robetta tasks on a few PCs and one android Not enough to last very long - and exhausted already - but a surprise to receive any at all #NotEntirelyDeadYet

There have been small intermittent batches for about a week now. The latest one is visibly larger. Gotta keep trying to grab whatever we can!

I took a look at Boincstats and can see you're right - results posted on every one of the last 40 days I guess I'm just saying it's a shock I received some on several machines as I've had nothing at all on any of them for 25 days

I'm on a roll One single task snuck through on Saturday morning (woohoo) 15 more tasks arrived 30mins ago - but none more to grab Only on my main PC, not on any others, but I'm getting luckier

I have posted a While ago, but I don't get any Tasks at all for Rosetta@Home, I know that's not much Information, but I have BOINC Version 8.2.8 (x64) do I need some "Add-ons" or something else? Like additional files where I can change the Config and if so - where do i put them? I got a RXT 4060 Ti GPU and a Ryzen 7 CPU, don't know if that is any Issue? But if i read you PPL from Time to Time get at least 1 Single lonely Task, there should something working... |

You need mostly luck to try and contact the server in the few minutes (seconds?) when a new batch of a few thousand tasks is dropped.

I have posted a While ago, but I don't get any Tasks at all for Rosetta@Home, I have a very similar PC - Ryzen 7 5800X & GTX1660Ti - it's certainly not that. There's a regular flow of very small batches of work - a few thousand per week that get grabbed as soon as they appear - that you have to be very lucky to download any of. Across 3 locations I have 3 PCs, 1 laptop & 2 phones connected to Rosetta and received nothing for 25 days, but I've been a bit luckier over the last week. The last time we had a much bigger batch of consistent work was across November & December, but this happens more and more rarely. Expect to receive nothing at all. Then, when tasks do appear, you'll be a lot happier. It's a more realistic perspective

I have posted a While ago, but I don't get any Tasks at all for Rosetta@Home, @Sid You are 100% on target expect little and anything will be just fine... I went the longest time with no tasks on any system and figured that it was a timing issue. When my systems needed CPU work the project had no available tasks and vice verses when the Project has tasks my systems were not asking for work. I finally got two small batches on my Primary system and was surprised about four days later one of my smaller systems got 11 tasks ,,,, I can't remember when it last received a Task. So any work is Good work Bill F Dallas Texas In October 1969 I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; There was no expiration date.

I have posted a While ago, but I don't get any Tasks at all for Rosetta@Home, Whatever PC I'm on I try a few manual updates through the day and I can't recall finding any tasks for months Weirdly, whenever I look at my other devices, I'm finding they're picking up tasks of their own accord When I look at my credits over the last 60 days across my 5 devices I'm getting something on 6 of the last 10 days, but with 400-800 credits per 12hr task I can see it's only ever bits and pieces. That's just where we are. On the plus side our new work PC got its first Rosetta tasks recently (different User name) and I was pleased to see it getting 1200 credits/task (Ryzen 5 9600X)

Whatever PC I'm on I try a few manual updates through the day I run a job in the crontab to do this. If you'd like I could send you the scripts (bash) that I use, in a private message.
