I'd be happy to just get a wu. I upgraded to 7.0.15 and still nothing.

Lol, installed it just before I read this. Brilliant minds think alike

Wow, nearly 2 weeks now and still I haven't received a single wu. I have BPU set to check every 2 min 30 secs. boinc 7.0.18, amd 12.1 (hd 6970). Is there anything out of the ordinary that needs to be done for this project or is it just a waiting game?

What is the mandatory server back off when you ask for a task? Default is 7 seconds, but they may have changed it. In any case, set BPU to back off + 2 seconds. That should do it.

Also, do you have BOINC 7.x installed? That is a requirement.

As stated, I have installed boinc 7.0.18. The boinc messages entries only show this whenever it tries to update:

I can't edit the BPU from the edit menu to use exactly 2min 7 seconds as it always crashes. But it does allow me to edit the number in the main window by saying '2.12' for the time. That actually comes out to 2min 7secs. The log entries haven't changed.

I never see a message about backoff time for poem.

This is what mine looks like:

It may be that I have more stuff turned on in my cc_config.xml to show me that. In any case, why are you setting it to 2 min 7 sec? Set it to 0 min 9 seconds, or .15 minutes in BPU.

Lol, I didn't set it that low because I thought maybe it would be spamming them too much. But it's now set at .15. Thanks for your help!

7 seconds = 7/60 of a minute = 0.12 of a minute in decimal. So 2 minutes 7 seconds = 2:07 = 2.12 minutes. I can see where the display is confusing though. I'll see what I can do about that....

There wasn't any confusion about the .12 approximately equaling 7 seconds. That was pretty obvious. It was just that I couldn't edit the time via the edit menu (edit menu->edit host/project) without it crashing.
