I get this error on the machines I use for days, as some said for them forced updates worked I tried that many times with the same result.
Are the servers still down ?

I have had this problem as well for the last few weeks .. it turned out that the "Project URL" that I was using is no longer valid.

Try using http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/ as the Project URL .. and then reattach to the project.

This worked for me ....

I just had this problem too - for me it was my firewall that had somehow been set to block all network activity for BOINC after I upgraded to version 3.20.

The url for attaching to the project is http://setiathome.berkeley.edu

The url http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu is only the url for the web page.

Thank you, it was indeed the problem with the project URL.
I already uninstalled my firewall and antivirus before posting.
Lets get back to work...
