You are trying to use an optimized or self compiled version of the application and the server does not understand the app info file you have ... if you want to run the stock client, delete that file and restart BOINC.

If you want to use the optimized client, fix the file ...

I don't really have an answer for you. I'm running FreeBSD as well. My version is v5.4 which is a stable version. I'm also having a problem with BOINC on this machine. I found that SETI doesn't get my hostname and the machine's IP address. I haven't figured out why yet. I can attach but that's it. I would suggest checking the info for you computer to see if that may be your problem too. This is the only help I can offer, which may not be of any help.... Good luck....

This might be related to a misconfigured hosts file usually their should be something like
192.168.0.5 seticruncher.yourdomainname.org seticruncher (if your running your own DNS server)
or
192.168.0.5 seticruncher (while seticruncher is you hosts name)

in your /etc/hosts

might also a problem with you resolv.conf or if it´s a statically linked client you need a copy of the glibc libs it´s linked against

I am unsure there is a normal FreeBSD download for Seti (from the site directly). Wherever you got the ported FreeBSD Boinc, you also need to get the ported FreeBSD Seti. I am also unsure that any of the other projects have yet been ported. I will be looking into this myself in the furture, when I finally get the other systems in place that I want to use, but I have not looked at this situation, as of yet.

I only wonder why there is not Berkeley written versions for the BSDs. Since BSD is Berkeley.... Just a thought.

Well, my problem looks like this:

...Sending scheduler request to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi
...Requesting 8640 seconds of work, returning 0 results
...Scheduler request to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi succeeded
...Message from server: platform 'i386-portbld-freebsd5.4' not found
...no work from project
...Dereferring communication with project for...

this is the "Messages" output from my boincmgr.

I have...
Athlon 550, 128MB RAM and definitely enough harddiskspace. FreeBSD 5.4 Stable. I built /usr/ports/net/boinc-client via "make clean", "make install" and after that i built /usr/ports/astro/boinc-setiathome (same way). I still always get the same result, although network is working properly. Can anyone help?

I checked it out, made a few mods and still, SETI can't get my hostname or machine IP address. Could it have ANYTHING to do with my router. My XP box has been working through it since installation.

It also seems that the install put the executable in other than the proper place. My location: /usr/locaL/lib/boinc/ Originally, I was instructed to locate it here: /usr/local/bin/ by a friend of mine. He's running BOINC on FreeBSD just fine.... Nothing we have done will allow SETI to get my hostname of machine IP address.... >:-(

ok, I did "cp $seticlient &var/db/boinc/projects/seti[..]edu/" and the communication works, but I get this:

unrecoverable error for result $result (process exited with code 2)

maybe some "make world" necessary?
