When i put this in app config i still sometimes get rosetta tasks instead of rosetta_python_projects <app_config> <app> <name>rosetta</name> <max_concurrent>0</max_concurrent> </app> <app> <name>rosetta_python_projects</name> <max_concurrent>1</max_concurrent> </app> </app_config> |

You are lucky if that is your only problem. There is a known bug with <max_concurrent> where too many work units are downloaded. If you search here or on the LHC forum, among others, you will find a discussion of it. Wait until BOINC fixes it. It has been reported. |

When i put this in app config i still sometimes get rosetta tasks instead of rosetta_python_projects The option of what tasks to send to someone is SOLELY on the Project side and BEFORE the Boinc Manager gets involved in reading any app_config files, it's solely on on the Boinc Manager saying 'hey I need some new tasks' and the Project saying 'okay here you go'. What the app config does is say 'run these tasks not those tasks'. Fortunately Rosetta does not punish us for aborting the tasks we don't want to run so feel free to abort all the regular tasks and keep trying to get the Python tasks you do want. |

To process only a particular work type requires the use of app_info.xml where you need to put in the all the details of the project, the work type, the application, the files needed by the application etc. And you will need to manually change that & download & install the new application & files when a new application comes out. This is what's known as Anonymous Platform- and as far as i know, Rosetta doesn't support it. So, if you only want to do only Python work, and aren't prepared to do any of the Rosetta 4.20 work, then i suggest you detach from Rosetta as it's not a suitable project for you. Grant Darwin NT |

It's about priorities, and we all make choices all day long so making them in Boinc is okay too. I UNDERSTAND where you are coming from but the guy only wants to run Python tasks, like I did awhile back, and I gave him an option....MOST people running Rosetta don't care what kind of tasks they get and just love running them. YES it WOULD be a problem if everyone started aborting regular tasks to only get Python tasks but for those people that REALLY care it doesn't make a blip in the resends. But if it really came to that the Project would take the action of penalizing us for aborted tasks and to most people it would make any difference at all. |

I think it is a coin flip on Python. I haven't got any since the first 10 at the start. I am trying a couple of experiments to see if I can con RAH to send me some. If that fails, then its 4.2 for life. |
