Message 731 - Posted: 12 Jan 2008 | 1:44:22 UTC

I finnally got attached to PS3GRID about 3 or 4 days ago. It works well. But there is a problem.

My original CPID (Cross-Project IDentifier) is 45c3bf------- something.
But my ps3grid account has different CPID, 5f1cec---------.

I use same name, Home page, Country, ZIP code and email address, of course. but it\'s still different.
So I couldn\'t see all my projects together on boincstats.com and boinc.netsoft-online.com.

Anyone else have this problem?

The only part that counts is using the exact same email address for all of your projects so I would check to be certain that this is actually the case. If you are getting different CPID\'s for each then this would most likely indicate different email addresses. If they are the same then give it some time to sync up (perhaps a week or so) but my guess is that somewhere along the registration process two different email addresses were used.

Email address is exactly same.
Do I have to wait one week?
Then all becomes fine?

You should also attach your PS3 to another project you crunch for, or attach one of your computers to PS3GRID. Only that way the CPID can sync up!

I just attached ps3grid to my computer. Finally ps3grid CPID has correct value, hooray!
But after I detached ps3grid project from my computer, CPID goes wrong agian.

So I attached ps3grid to my computer again and see what happen.
1. CPID value changed to a correct value.
2. Some minutes later, It goes wrong again. (ps3grid still attached to my computer)
3. I clicked \"Update\" on boinc manager, and i got correct CPID again.

What should i do to make ps3grid CPID keep correct?

Let it attached to your computer and put it on \"no new work\". That way your computer shouldn´t contact the PS3GRID server, and your CPID should stay correct at PS3GRID.

To keep your CPID synced you should:

- Use the exact same email address for every project.
- Run at least one system with all projects, or one system with project A and B, and one system with project B and C. If there is a project that runs isolated from the other projects, it\'s CPID with never line up.

See this thread http://www.ps3grid.net/PS3GRID/forum_thread.php?id=87#384 that I previously posted as a FAQ. It explains how this works and what to do.
