There were some difficulties in getting work for seti, especially astropulse units seem hard to get (I got 1 on a windows box). For setiathome, there definitely should be an app_info.xml if you're not using ALT. Maybe (re)installing the astro/boinc-setiathome-enhanced is enough (no support for astropulse yet, but you can manually download a binary from www.dotsch.de and update app_info.xml according to the instructions.
