How do I make the pc get a different wu?

[Jmarks]

I left a message in the wu thread about wu 3050 which will not go passed 8%.

What I need to Know is how to clear the WU and start another?
I looked at wiki and It say to use -delete as a last resort. If someone could explain exactally what I need to do it will make my day.

Thanks Jon

Dear Jmarks, when posting "Issues with a specific WU",
please simply copy and paste the WU info from the Fahlog.
It is much easier to post that way, and it also make searches easier (possible).
Thank you.

To delete a WU, first stop the client.
Restart the client with the "-delete x" flag, where x = the position in the of the WU in the queue.
The WU to be deleted can be found in your Fahlog by looking for "Working on Unit xx", or "-suffix xx", as the client starts.

The delete flag may not be supported in the SMP client yet.

Delete the Work folder, and the queue.dat file. (Only as a last resort, and also assuming all other completed WUs are uploaded, else you lose those too.)

I also combined the two threads.

I had to delete the work folder and queue.dat file. It load up a 2653 an all looks fine thanks.

It's not an issue since you've already deleted the WU, but for future reference, we've gotten some reports suggesting that if you get in this situation again, one thing to try is to let it run to 7% and then stop the client. Wait until all copies of FahCore_a1 have stopped, then restart. This MAY allow the WU to pass the error at 8%.

. . . and, no, I don't understand which WUs it works on or why it may work.

I left a message in the wu thread about wu 3050 which will not go passed 8%.

My pcs are dedicated folders in my basement with no monitors. I only check them with fahmon a couple a times a day. That would not be easy for me.
