Message 69758 - Posted: 26 May 2016, 19:47:20 UTC

I have a newly created server and have attached approximately 10 Win7 x64 machines to my test project. The clients show the project name properly in Manager so initially it looks like everything is fine, but the hostid in client_state is 0/zero on all the machines. Also on the projects admin webpage, the Hosts search of the database returns no results.
I've attached some of the clients by hand, and some by command line with no difference.
I don't think the database is totally corrupt as I have the example_app application added and it shows on the admin webpage.
Anyone have any ideas? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Vincent

If the hostID is 0 on the client there is something from with the server (scheduler). check the scheduler.log on the server and the Client log for more details. You may need to activate the http_debug log flag.

Is suspect that you have the wrong URL in the servers schedulers.txt file in html/user/

We checked the URL in the schedulers.txt file; my web guy says that they are correct.

There were some problems/errors in the schedulers.txt file though (servername removed):

What happens when you point a browser to http://sampleboinc.sample.edu/test4vm/cgi?

You should see something like this:
<scheduler_reply>
<scheduler_version>702</scheduler_version>
<master_url>http://www.rnaworld.de/rnaworld/</master_url>
<request_delay>3636.000000</request_delay>
<message priority="low">Error in request message: xp.get_tag() failed</message>
<project_name>RNA World</project_name>
</scheduler_reply>
