hi

I have had to reinstall Boinic and since then both the Add Project and BAM account under tools will not allow me to be found, but am able to log into the Web page OK for BAM. Says the email & password are incorrect.

Change the Project details there, but reflected in Boinic.

What needs to be done to fix this issue.

Are you saying you can't add Bam as account manager to your client?
Think the project and Bam email/password have to be identical for Bam to be able to attach projects to clients. When Bam is attached to a client, add project on the client is disabled... Use Bam to add projects. IIRC.

Bam and the account manager to my Boinic client are the same UID and Password, but the client says the UID & P/W are incorrect on the Client. At the BAM web site login the UID & P/W works OK, and can add new Projects.

However the Boinic Client doesn't reflect the changes and can't do any BAM type activities as it won't associate with BAM when logging in from the Boinic Client.

"Think the project and Bam email/password have to be identical"

So your pw / uid at e.g. Einstein has to be the same as at Boincstats, but your first problem seems to be the attaching of BAM to your client. The Url for Bam is
https://bam.boincstats.com/ (secure http)

Bam email/password are identical

https://bam.boincstats.com/ (secure http)

I am using that address and is the same as supplied in the Client.

Still is says UID & P/W are incorrect. As I said before , I can login on the Web, but the use of these same detail in the Client will not work.

Hi again

Found that P/W is case sensitive and now can login into the BAM Account in the Boinic Client.

However I still can't add Project in the Boinic Client Still says UID & P/W are incorrect, yet go to the Web Project Page and can login OK

Glad you found out. P/W is everywhere case sensitive... if it's not, it makes the guessing a whole lot easier. UID is not case sensitive, at least at WCG, but the email address is, though I think for CPID purposes it's auto-converted to small. Best to keep it small everywhere so there wont develop a CPID divergence between projects which breaks the consolidation at BOINCStats etc.
