also some others with this prob on seti@home's forum:

prsonly i'm not too bothered, it's only 1 work unit on one machine
but wouldn't mind knowing about it

Strangely enough I've just been clobbered by this for the first time
ever.

On checking, I found the state.sah file missing, and my user_info.sah
reset to blanks!

A quick fix is to delete all the .sah files EXCEPT version.sah, and
copy
over your backup copy of user_info.sah (or go through the login setup
to
reclaim your user info).

i want to send the work unit of course, binning off the sah files of course
makes it start a new work unit

i tryed binning off all sah files baring result.sah
same error 100 though, looking in result.sah it looks ok to me
mmm


Could be that the result.sah is too big or too many lines or some other such unknown to us. I'm using the 3.03 client so there may be something that has since been fixed in the slower 3.08...

However, this is just one WU. I don't think it is worth the time to delve too deeply... Berkeley will eventually discover their problem WUs when they eventually review their database.


Happy crunchin'
