I have a problem getting the software up & running: After going through the 'attach to project' process, the final message I get is "Required wizard file(s) are missing from target server. (lookup_account.php/create_account.php)"

The related message in BOINC Manager is:
Thu Feb 16 16:17:34 2006||Fetching config info from https://boinc.bakerlab.org/get_project_config.php

If I try to attach to the recommended server, boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta, I get a message saying "The URL you supplied is not that of a BOINC based project".

Any ideas on how to finally attach to a project?

I'm on an iMac G5 running OS 10.4.4, BOINC 5.2.13. I've also tried to attach to Seti and Climateprediction.net, and get the 'required wizard' error there as well.

Many thanks.

Thanks for your reply, and you're exactly right.

I gave up on the full version of BOINC and installed the menubar version, which worked. So then I figured, if this works, then the full version should too. So I deleted the previous installs, reinstalled, and now everything works. Thank heavens. It was very frustrating.

I think the problem relates to not installing the library files first. Lesson learned, always follow the instructions.
