ERR_NULL -116
This error is generated in general, when a reference to a certain URL, project or result's name is invalid. In detail that is:
- The project as stated in the state file can't be found. - The result as stated in the state file can't be found. - The requested version of a science application for a certain task can't be found. - Missing or incorrect project URL. - On Date/Time conversion (date/time informations are passed as a long float number), a given time value passed to the date/time converter is negative or the output buffer was not initialized correctly. - The science app respectively it's corresponding file containing a soft link to the executable file can't be found.
This error may also be issued if a trickle (used by some projects) can't be generated due to a missing/wrong project/result name.
ERR_NEG -117
This error is generated when the requested slot number (the working directory for a result) is negative.
ERR_BUFFER_OVERFLOW -118
This error is generated, if e.g. the length of the path-/file name for a given file exceeds 1023 Bytes. May not happen on Windows systems, since AFAIK the maximum path-/file name allowed under Windows is 260 bytes.
ERR_MD5_FAILED -119
BOINC couldn't find a signature on the file it downloaded.

Solution: Complain about it on the project's forums. BOINC will try to download the file again. Also try to reset the project. It may be that your public key is corrupt. A project reset should fix that.
