Hello,
I just installed Boinc on Arch Linux. When I click to "Add a project", I recieve an error stating 
The BOINC client has exited unexpectedly 3 times within the last 4 minutes. Would you like to restart it again?"

Any suggestions on why this may be happening would be great.
I don't know what other details you would need, but ask anything.
Thanks.

I'm guessing you installed BOINC from Arch Linux repositories.

Did you already read the installation instructions in ArchWiki?

If you did and it still doesn't work: Looks like the client isn't running or the Manager thinks it isn't running. I don't know if the client is started automatically after installing. Try restarting it.

If that doesn't help see if there is anything in the BOINC log files in /var/lib/boinc.
