Missed a deadline!

Guys, take a look at this screenshot...the highlighted in red line.
Notice anything amiss? Has anyone ever seen this before?

Happy New Year & be careful on 'Amatuers Night'!!!

The system should automatically move that one to high priority so it gets crunched before the deadline (assuming you have a reasonably recent version of BOINC.)

Uhhh, I think it already missed the deadline!

Woah, 1969?

abort that puppy No doubt! :eek:

Looks like a bad transfer or something. The one right below it comes from the same batch with a 2009 deadline. Is that machine running an old BOINC version ...?

Yep, it was, 5.10.45. I must have missed it when I upgraded the other day. Still, 1969? Upgrading now.

It does seem very odd - even with an older version. Only thing I could figure is a dropped bit somewhere but that's pretty unlikely, too.

Guess I'd better check all my machines after seeing that ... ;)

First thing that comes to my mind is that it picked up a bad system date somewhere...probably created on a Mac suffering from a crashed PMU/SMU, or a dead battery.

That makes sense, the RTC must have been reset to zero. I just found a group of about 70 more of these on another machine. I'll be glad when those guys @ SETI get back to work...maybe too much Christmas cheer!!?
