I took an older laptop and installed Ubuntu 16.04 on it and loaded up boince-client and this was the first system that I used BAM to auto attach to a project. I had it set to load Asteroids @ home and SEti @ home. They both loaded, but only Asteroids@home is getting work units. The Seti ones are all failing:

https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=8171274

I don't know what to try to get it resolved. I removed the project, cleared the tasks, attached it normally and still. I thought about purging it and then reinstalling but figured that would be rather drastic and would ask for help here first as I am not sure it will work. I have lots of PC's running units here and all communicate fine, it isn't a proxy issue as I don't use one.

30-Dec-2016 01:12:51 (low) [] No usable GPUs found

Why add GPUGRID when you do not have a GPU? This project has only got work for GPUs, not for CPUs.

30-Dec-2016 01:13:01 (low) [SETI@home] Incomplete read of 849.000000 < 5KB for setiathome-8.00_AUTHORS - truncating

Something is not right in your connection to the Seti, and since communication happens on a per project basis, it will not affect all projects.
Solution is to try different HTTP connection, that will affect all projects but shouldn't negatively influence those already connecting correctly.
Example cc_config.xml:

<cc_config>
<log_flags>
</log_dlags>
<options>
<http_1_0>1</http_1_0>
</options>
</cc_config>

Merge with your own cc_config.xml file if you have one, or else use it in its stead from /var/lib/boinc-client
Doesn't require a restart of the client, just a reread of the config files: <code>boinccmd --read_cc_confg</code>

For future reference, do know that communications with the projects are a project problem. It may even be a project problem where it has trouble sending out a new application (as Seti has had the past few days), and so any information about it is best asked for or found on the project forums. Only if none of your projects can be communicated with can it be a BOINC client problem - or a misconfigured firewall or proxy.

Later edit: if may also be a problem with the AUTHORS.txt file from Seti. See this thread where two people have the exact same problem, although on different hardware.

I'm one of those people who had the problem with the Linux x64 version of SETI@home (stock app). Doing a wget on the file also got a shorter file than expected. I sent a PM to Eric who tracked it down and fixed it early in January 2017.
