Whether it was you or Boinc automatically pausing the task - it happened.

I only had 1 invalid task out of 300 and, as suspected, it was Windows vs Linux, v1.11 vs v1.10. What was unexpected is that the 3rd replicate was sent to a Windows system but it validated the original Linux task, not mine.
Either way, when can we expect more work here? :) I'm crunching SiDock and WCG while waiting, but checking the forum regularly to catch any possible tasks.
The problem with that failed task is likely related to pausing/resuming tasks, see here...

I'm runnig Linux (1.10) and all of my tasks error when validatet against 1.11 Win wingmans. :(
Your tasks also fail to validate against other linux v1.10. The deciding task validates with a 1.11 Window task.
Something not quite right with your linux cachyos system.

I wonder if the v1.10 vs v1.11 validation problem has been fixed. Got 8 tasks finished on v1.11, waiting for my wingmen who are all running Linux or Darwin...
It is not a problem for this batch.

Tasks being marked as invalid due to having a mismatch of v1.10 and v1.11 do complete successfully.

valterc, thank you for the work.
It seems to me that v1.10 tasks will not validate against v1.11 tasks.
Do you have any completed tasks from this batch in the database that have validated with one of each app version ?
