I have been noticing errors for " client and downloads " etc. for
myself and others on our team and am thinking maybe it " is " because
we don't have the latest version of boinc installed and there doesn't
seem to be any server problems listed and I have also read that we
should all be using it, it being 4.19.

My question is; can you install right over 4.13 without loosing work
in progress? If not, how do you save work in progress to transfer to
the new
4.19 after you uninstall 4.13?

Thanks.

I keep getting this in my logs:

Whatisface:  Stop 4.13, install 4.19 over it & start. Works fine.

OoJ:  Berkeley had a disk system crash today. They are back up now.
