I set up a boinc server. (hopefully, the first content is 'relpace with project name', it's successful, isn't?) Here is the link http://canis.csc.ncsu.edu:8005/boinc_test/.

Then I tried to run the sample app upper_case, everything goes on well according to the instruction except create_work,

kchen3@lobo:/chen/project/boinc_test$ ./bin/create_work -appname upper_case -wu_name test -wu_template templates/upper_case_wu -result_template templates/upper_case_result in
No file number found
process_wu_template: -112
create_work: -112
kchen3@lobo:/chen/project/boinc_test$

I set the file number into 0 in the wu template the first time and second time for 1, neither worked. Also I can't find anything in table workunit in the database.

And then when I try to access the web page, the content hasn't changed at all.

I don't know whether because I failed to create the work so the web page content doesn't change (but it should be changed to error message,isn't ?) or I have to do something else to create the project?

I am totally new to this project creating thing. Appreciate any help from you. Thank you.

Also I have a question is that can I change content index.php directly for simple application (such as show the current time of the machine). Or I should create a project for that?

Thanks.

Hi, the sequence goes (roughly and summarised), install the boinc server, run /tools/make_project and then ./bin/create_work. There is lots of info on this on various wikis but I found this article very useful and consice.

I found out the problem finally. There are some fatal errors in the template in the instruction I followed so far.

The following link is workable:

Hope it will help new comers.
