<EventNoNewWorkProject> make sure you delete every thing after the > and the text and add a tab, probably a space, that is hard to see at a one position tab.
The TThrottle window is fixed, it always was. The list should be an exact copy, of what is shown in TThrottle.

Takes a lot of resources to update this.
You can lower the max history update to 30 seconds or less.
I'm not seeing any more crashes since updating to 1.30. In fact most of the previous problems seem to be gone. The only one still not working is reconnecting a client after it disconnects by either shutting down BOINC or rebooting. BT will not reconnect. It must be exited and restarted (double clicking on the computer icon doesn't work), but at least that works very quickly now.

Seems I've been doing something right this time. :o
Must be related to a bad connection somehow.
Installing a new BOINC version will probably always be a problem, best to shut down the client first.
BOINC is killed by the installer, this leaves the connection open, without properly closing it down.

Must be a misunderstanding. Not referring to installing a new BOINC version. If I shut down BOINC or restart a machine it is not picked up again by BT (the machines do show as connected but no tasks are listed) no matter how long I wait. Exiting BT and restarting it instantly picks up all the machines and tasks again. Using 6.12.41 or 6.12.43 on all machines. BTW the long start and exit times are gone, it takes only about a second with v1.30 :)

In the side bar a lost connection icon should appear. Does it?
When you click on the computer in the side bar it should reconnect.

Maybe need to be clearer: when the connection is lost the lost icon appears in the left pane. When the computer becomes available again the lost icon goes away and the computer shows as connected in the left pane but no tasks are listed under the Tasks Tab. This behavior is consistent and absolutely repeatable. Double clicking on the computer does NOT bring the tasks back. Restarting BT fixes the problem.
Compare this behavior to that of 1.21. In 1.21 on a lost connection the tasks reappear when the disconnected computer's icon is double clicked. Double clicking is not usually even necessary as in 1.21 the disconnected computers generally automatically reconnect within a couple minutes. My BT settings are consistent for both 1.21 and 1.30.

How do you stop the client. BT File->stop or another way.
I can't reproduce it. :o
My log shows: Set the connect flag in log.xml to 1.
23 december 2011 - 17:04:21 Shut down BoincTasks ---- The BOINC client is shutting down
23 december 2011 - 17:04:28 Shut down BoincTasks ---- The BOINC client has shut down
23 december 2011 - 17:04:28 Connect ---- The connection was lost, because the client stopped
23 december 2011 - 17:04:50 Start BOINC client ---- Program: C:\Program Files\BOINC\boinc.exe --detach, Data directory: C:\ProgramData\BOINC\
23 december 2011 - 17:04:50 Start BOINC client ---- The BOINC client started OK
23 december 2011 - 17:04:53 Connect ---- Try to connect to: Host: localhost, Fred-giga-I7-W7, Port: 31416, Thread ID: 3600
23 december 2011 - 17:04:53 Connect ---- Forced reconnect request to: Host: localhost, Fred-giga-I7-W7, Port: 31416
23 december 2011 - 17:04:55 Connect ---- Connected to: Host: localhost, Fred-giga-I7-W7, Port: 31416, BOINC Version: 6.12.33
No problem.......

Duh on my part. I rechecked my settings again and somehow the "Reconnect every xx seconds" under Expert was changed to 0. Set it back to 120, tried disconnecting a client and it reconnected with tasks showing properly. Sorry, I should have investigated further before posting an issue. :-[

What is needed to fill the columns in project tab of??:

I've updated one of mi computers to 7.0.3 x64 and still not receiving such data.
is it needed something else??
I suppose that this would be something related to BOINC manager instead of BOINCTasks

->BoincTasks settings, project tab, press the ? button. That should explain everything.
In short, you should give a CPID in the expert tab.

I still see BT using almost 1 CPU (out of 4 on a Q6600/Win Vista) with BT 1.30. I have to assume that I am uniquely cursed because no one else has complained recently ;D
BT 1.25 works just fine. BT 1.26 through BT 1.30 hogs the CPU. I'm guessing it's me (usually a good bet), but I can't figure out anything to do except go back to BT 1.25 which I've done. I've said all the magic words I know to make it work. Fred, can you give me a magic word or two to say? :P

BoincTasks settings->Expert Check "Enable thread runtime graph"
Restart BoincTasks.
If it happens again, click on the button Thread Graph. Wait for about 10 minutes and see if the problem goes away.
The graph shows the main program use : _BoincTasks and all the connection treads.
See if it happens in main or the connection threads.
OK, but this a bit arcane ;) My brain is frizzled for tonight. I'll try your magic words tomorrow.
I lied about "tomorrow" ;D Sorry about that.
After a week and several reboots I reinstalled BT 1.30 on the Q6600 and saw what I described before ~ 1 CPU (25%) used in task manager. The connection threads are essentially zero on the BT thread graph when shown all together with the main task. The main BT task monotonically increased to 42 % (after 10 minutes and was still increasing) while displaying all tasks (270) for all computers (8 of them). When I minimized BT after 10 minutes the main BT task line monotonically decreased but the slope of the line is less than half of the slope of the increase. Task manger reports an immediate decrease to 2-4% upon minimization.
I kept BT minimized for 15 minutes. The main thread graph decayed to 8%. When I maximized the main thread started back up at the same rate as before. Viewing only the local host (1 computer) gave the same result.
I'm not sure what this means, but that's what it did :D
Edit: I've been installing BT 1.30 over BT 1.25 without uninstalling BT 1.25. Would this make a difference?

Keep BT closed, if not needed.
It uses up less CPU time that way.
What you see is for one core. So 8% over say 4 cores is 2% or the CPU.
The decay time is about 10 minutes, so it will take a while for the graph to crawl back.
You can install a higher version over a lower version, no problems there.
Only from 1.30 back to 1.25 would be a problem.
Various BOINC-related tools (including BOINC Manager and BT's Task properties window) correctly show my (obviously incorrect and buggy) ibercivis sanidad_21-.... task being at 447.946% progress, later 460.945%, etc. but BT's Tasks tab displays it limited to 100.000% (BTW the task checkpoints correctly.)
I remember it has been displaying the true progress % in the past (and I've possibly reported this already). Could it be relaxed again? There is no point in artificially limiting it to "usual" 100.0% - the tasks' troubleshooting thus gets impossible. (The green progress bar should off course stay limited to 100%, except it would be user-configurable - it is an ugly, but perfect indication of a progress bug ;D)

Works perfectly now (604.9275% - I can finally abort the example task), thanks.
What other workarounds and cleanups are influenced by this option? (OK, I've found the '
