Hello. I just started a new WU and it works fine, but when I suspend, it removes data from the memory,
so when I next time turn on BOINC client, it starts from the same time from past. I have looked at my preferences: to leave in memory -> yes, although when I suspend a WU it says:

Fri 08 Dec 2006 05:20:56 PM CST|climateprediction.net|Pausing result hadcm3ohc_1ujd_05634592_1 (removed from memory)
Fri 08 Dec 2006 05:20:59 PM CST||request_reschedule_cpus: process exited

I guess my client doesn\'t know that it should keep it in memory, but how to set it to get its preferences?
As I click on Update button, I can see:

Fri 08 Dec 2006 05:21:35 PM CST|climateprediction.net|Sending scheduler request to http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi

Fri 08 Dec 2006 05:21:40 PM CST|climateprediction.net|Scheduler request to http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc_cgi/cgi succeeded

What should I do? Is it possible to correct this with editing some text file in my BOINC directory?
I could write \'yes\' into some line instead of \'no\'.

There is an alternative file arrangement written-up on boinc development pages. So far, I haven\'t found the link. (It\'s somewhere on these Boards, in Windows, perhaps.)


Edit:
Found discussion of the override file here, though you\'d have to use the applicable parameter line from global_prefs.xml
( <leave_apps_in_memory /> )
