I would not mind merge but this does not work.

I don't see the last project attempted connection count value where is this?

Hi,

When I upgraded my BOINC, it changed my iD for the project, I tried to merge them but it didn't work.

Is there a way to revert my ID to the old one?

Thanks

If I install 8.1.0 in a similar manner with clean install of Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS it also does not work.

My guess is something to do with "-" in lhcathome-dev since all my other projects don't have this.

I can repo it:

Clean install Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS
After boot apt update && sudo apt upgrade
reboot
follow instructions: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/linux_install.php?os_num=5&build=alpha
reboot
sudo usermod -a -G boinc $USER
attach to LHC dev (https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/)
check its working all good just Warning: GUI RPC password is empty. & VirtualBox is not installed
systemctl stop boinc-client
nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/boinc.list
change alpha to nightly
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
systemctl start boinc-client
open manager, tools even log.

Thank you for trying to repoduce. it seems like it could be a config issue then not something more.

What I saw was when I upgraded from 8.0.4 to 8.1.0 is when it broke, I can try again to repoduce the issue.

After is gave the errors I tried many things so I don't know how to repo this anymore.

Any ideas what configuationally could be the issue?

Like in #6182

I think since the url of the project does not match what the RPC expects then you can not detach or update or NNT.

I assume thats also whay the project can not be found as the

<project>
<master_url>https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/</master_url>

is not as expected

No worries, as you said to be expected, I'm helping test the docker so I needed it.

I could not detach as it seemed in a bad state, so i removed

rm -r /var/lib/boinc-client/projects/lhcathomedev.cern.ch_lhcathome-dev/
rm /var/lib/boinc-client/*lhcathomedev.cern.ch*

it was gone so I could reattach at this point

Afterwards I get

boinccmd --project https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/ update
24-Mar-2025 20:46:27: GUI RPC error: No such project
and

I upgraded my BOINC and I now see this error and the project does not work correctly, any ideas how to repair it, I tried to detach and reattach but it didn't fix it totally. I have 8.1

in a clean install of 24h2 it seemed like the Memory Integrity switch didn't work so setting the regkey manually did the job.
