S@H problems

I'm having problems with this new BOINC seti client. Most of the time I try to run it, it errors and says it can't connect and other times it said it connected and something to the effect of "no new work, will try again in 1.5 hrs". Am I doing something wrong? Should I be using seti queue? I don't understand how everyone else can still show work units for the day if I can't connect.

Also, I can still use the normal s@h command line client right? I'm having problems with it connecting too.

The BOINC-site is being worked on, so therefore it's sometimes down. One of the problems has been they've not managed getting wu added fast enough, therefore "out of work". Some database-optimization and moving services to different machines has sped things up.

Still, there can be other reasons for no work, this mostly is listed in the lines before this message.

SETI Q only works with SETI "Classic", not the BOINC version.

Yes, if you want to still run the SETI "Classic" version they're still sending out WU's. For that project you might want to connect thru one of the team Q's if you're having problems.

Hopefully some SETI Q for BOINC and some beginner step by step guide to BOINC will appear soon.
