This is a known problem, then? Is it going to be fixed?

I've now disabled HadCM3 short in my preferences.

To be honest, my patience with the project is wearing thin. I re-joined a few months ago after a break of a few years, and it's been one problem after another, after another.

BOINC has stopped running Climateprediction for me after issuing the message:

Message from server: UK Met Office HadCM3 short needs 826.30MB more disk space. You currently have 973.70 MB available and it needs 1800.00 MB.


I increased the allowable disk space only a few weeks ago after getting a similar message. /var/lib/boinc-client/projects/climateprediction.net currently has 8.8GB.

Most of the space is taken up with various hadcm3s files:

Should I delete these?

Actually, I'm going to remove the project and re-join it, that's simplest, I think.

Duh! Thanks.

How can I prevent new WUs being downloaded, while continuing to process WUs already downloaded?

If I edit my preferences and untick all the applications, this is interpreted to mean I want to run all the applications -- when I go back to edit my preferences, all the applications are ticked.

http://climateprediction.net is unreachable for anyone not using ac.uk nameservers, because the domain expired last Sunday, 11th May.

There's a grace period of 16 days to renew it � see

http://www.123-reg.co.uk/support/answers/Domains/Domains-Explained/what-is-the-domain-recovery-period-and-how-can-i-restore-my-domain-names-4086/

I emailed the domain registrant yesterday, but got no reply. (He's now removed his email address from the WHOIS record.)
