1) Questions and Answers : Macintosh : \"Another instance of BOINC is running\" (Message 20035)

I got this error message, \"another instance of boinc is running\" on my Linux system.

Turned out I had set permissions [how?] of the whole BOINC directory to being owned by root, therefore boinc was unable to create \'lockfile\' & assumed it was in use.

chown -R mark:mark BOINC (as root from my home dir.) fixed it.

Mark
