51) Message boards : BOINC client : Trouble with router (Message 8429)
Posted 25 Feb 2007 by Profile pschoefer
Post:
Have you tried one of the schedulers in a web browser? Do you get an error message there too?

Incomplete request received. But that's OK...

Does it create sched_reply*.xml files on each contact and - if so - what are their contents?
If they look as expected, it can be a timing problem, I had that when a project server was overloaded.

The sched_reply*.xml files are created, but they're empty. I can contact all projects when I connect without the router and there's no message that servers are overloaded.

Here another extract from my stdoutdae.txt where you can see PrimeGrid and LHC with different errors, BAM! with error and a successful SETI contact.

I will try a clean deinstallation when I'm out of work next time. Or does anybody have another idea?

I'm using a Netgear WNR834B router since yesterday.
It has an internal firewall and now I can't communicate with following projects:
Einstein@home
lhcathome
QMC@Home
PrimeGrid
Only SETI@home works fine. I can upload work to all project servers but scheduler requests always fail:

Any solution? I tried to deactivate the firewall, but it still did not work.
I think I have to allow access over port 80 for non-http, but it simply doesn't work with that stupid router...
53) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Boinc Manager suggestions (Message 8404)

1)
Suggestion also for this forum: a search tool (cuz I'm wondering if my suggestions have already been suggested)

Google may also help ;) But a link to the internal search tool would be great.

To extend your list:
4) "Update all projects"-button (There was one in ~5.2.7, but where is it now?)

5) Better simple view: You can't suspend network activities and there's no list of tasks to be done in the simple GUI.

From Problems with 5.8.8:
-The new version starts two instances of Microsoft Internet Explorer when you click on a button.

Same problem in 5.8.11 with IE 6.0 ...

And the text and the white border of the disk usage boxes are overlapping the pie diagramms.

What version of IE?


IE v.6 (I use Win2k, so I can't update to 7)

-Not enough work because of new work fetch policy
Does anyone have the same problems?

I see 5.8.8 as a step back, because in 5.8.6, a test version, you could sort e.g. by RAC.
That's like 5.2.7(?) with the very useful "Update all projects"-button, which dissappeared in official release.
58) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Two WUs active at one time??? (Message 5210)
Posted 5 Aug 2006 by Profile pschoefer
Post:
I'm using BOINC 5.5.10 and the BOINC Manager displays two WUs active at the same time. But only one gets time, so it must be a bug in this version.
