I'm getting error messages while trying to connect to two projects. I'm using the same email address for everything.

Checking for existing account at World Community Grid -> -214
I set up the account for World Community Grid this evening. I created an account on their website first, then used the project manager to add it to my list. Everything went fine there. I synchronized with BOINCStats and then logged in here to sign up for the project looking for the existing account... -214 is the reply I get.

Checking for existing account at Climate Prediction -> Incorrect password
I was previously set up for climateprediction.net but when their servers went down I suspended/reset the project. I reconnect this evening and everything seems fine with the project manager but just like World Community Grid, I get an error when I try to connect to the existing account. "Incorrect Password". There isn't anywhere to enter a password.

What am I messing up? I seem to remember seeing a tutorial for BOINCStats somewhere when I originally set this stuff up but can't find it now. Sorry if these are stupid questions, but I've done this successfully with 6 projects so I'm at a loss why I'm stuck now.

Thanks for the help.

Try looking at http://boincstats.com/bam/instruct_attach.php

Cheers,

Chris

P.S. There are always problems connecting to WCG....

I followed the link you suggested, but my screen looks different.

When I go to Tools I have three options:

Synchronize with BOINCStats BAM!
Attach to project...
Stop using BOINCStats BAM!

I am running BOINC Manager ver 6.10.58. Both projects display properly under the Projects and Tasks tabs. They have downloaded files, and appear to be running the assigned tasks.

The issue is with getting signing onto the projects via the BOINCStats sight. That's when I get the error messages I indicated below. I have 6 other projects registered with BOINCStats so my account must be set up properly.

If there are issues with the World Computing Grid then that's all I need to know there.

At one time I had climateprediction.net set up through BOINCStats, but I detached from the project when their servers went down. I get the "incorrect password" message from them.

I'll keep searching the site docs for answers, but your help is certainly appreciated.

Thanks.

World Community Grid is now linked up but I'm still getting an Incorrect Password response for Climatepreditcion.net. Does this have something to do with their recent server problems? Is there something I can to do fix this?

Are your passwords at BAM! and CPDN identical?

I've just gone and re-set all of my projectto strong 24 character passwords. I didn't notice if CPDN was the same before, but it is now. I'll wait and see if that fixes it. Thanks for the suggestion.

SUCCESS!!! I've made a lot of password changes in the last week to get everything more secure and I musta gotten CPDN and BOINCStats outta sync. Thanks for the tip!

I'm now having problems getting Climateprediction.net to join my team. The BOINC project manager shows it running projects (but no team). BAMStats shows it connected to my account here, but I can't get it to join the Atlantic team.

According to my Climateprediction.net account, I'm a member of the Atlantic Team there. BOINCStats shows it connected to the team 9801. I can't find a reference to that number at CPN, or BOINCStats so I don't know that that is.

When I use the BOINCStats team page to change/update and try to connect to Atlantic, I get this error message:
No response from project

Been getting that for two days. I'm planning on posting to the CPN forums but would like to know first if there are any known issues between BOINCStats and CPN...

If there are any other suggestions that might help me complete this final step, I would appreciate them. Thanks.
