I used to, well before the BOINC application came about, run SETI@HOME on several different computers at home and work. I'd kinda forgotten about it until I got an email a few weeks ago, so I thought I'd install BOINC and see how it went. I had it installed on my desktop running Windows XP, and then I pulled everything and installed debian linux. Ever since, I haven't been able to get a work unit to process. I downloaded BOINC on my wife's XP laptop, and that's a no-go as well. I've tried on several different networks with and without firewalls, so I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas?? |

Error messages would be a great start. What does BOINC say in the Messages tab in BOINC Manager? |

Do you use a proxy server, by chance? If you don't did you by accident set up BOINC to use a proxy, or your internet connection to use one? Check in BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Advanced->Options->HTTP proxy what you got set there. If you don't use a proxy server, disable any settings you got there. |

Nope, no proxy server. Both linux and xp have no options checked in the proxy area of the manager. |
Jord Send message Joined: 9 Jun 99 Posts: 15184 Credit: 4,362,181 RAC: 3 |
Ok, do you have anything for a proxy set under your internet connections? Does your ISP use a proxy server? How do you connect to the internet, (somewhat) directly through a router, or through another PC? |

Nope, it's all direct. I've tried outside of my home network as well, only to get the same errors. Everything was fine a couple days ago, but now I'm not getting anything. Could my ISP be to blame?? I haven't had a chance to try under a different ISP at this point.. |

If all was fine up to a couple of days ago and you didn't change anything plus you can't connect outside the network either... then yes, I would contact my ISP and ask them what changed. Or if certain IP addresses were blocked. |

I've googled high and low - can anybody tell me what error 417 means?? Is that a SETI thing, or a BOINC thing?? |
Jord Send message Joined: 9 Jun 99 Posts: 15184 Credit: 4,362,181 RAC: 3 |
Neither. It's a HTTP error. |
Bubbajms Send message Joined: 2 Dec 03 Posts: 29 Credit: 64,248,758 RAC: 0 |
Well, where would a 417 error originate? Is this something I need to discuss with my ISP? Something I need to check with my router? The computer itself?? From the way that sounds, my computer is trying to talk to Seti's server, and it's not responding properly.. |

Well, here's a little twist - I was doing some research and saw someone in another project forum mention trying to connect via a proxy server. I tried a SOCKS server and all is well, at least until the server dies and I have to find a new one.. Any thoughts on that?? |

Force BOINC to use HTTP 1.0 as follows: Create a cc_config.xml in your BOINC folder with the following contents: <cc_config> <options> <http_1_0>1</http_1_0> </options> </cc_config> Restart BOINC (reboot is easiest) for them to take effect. |

Beautiful! That worked perfectly for the windows systems - how do I do that in Linux? There is already a cc_config file in /etc/boinc-client.. |

Beautiful! That worked perfectly for the windows systems - how do I do that in Linux? There is already a cc_config file in /etc/boinc-client.. Glad to hear that it helped. :) If the file exists and it has an <options></options> section, just edit it and add the option <http_1_0>1</http_1_0> above or below the other options. Otherwise add the whole options section: <options> <http_1_0>1</http_1_0> </options> making sure it's situated inside the <cc_config></cc_config> tags. |

seem seti on my computer will not pick up new work,, keeps saying "no work from project". keep trying to get it to pick up new work but just will not. what do i need to do to get more work? |
Jord Send message Joined: 9 Jun 99 Posts: 15184 Credit: 4,362,181 RAC: 3 |
If you have still got work from Seti, or you also have work from Einstein, then this is normal. BOINC works on a by debt basis, if one project has taken up a lot of CPU, BOINC will pay that time back to the other project. During this time it won't get work from the project with the highest positive debt. Just leave it be, BOINC will eventually grab work from Seti again. |

I have just started to receive the 417 error message on my BOINC application. I used the suggested contained in the 4 May 2008 post below and it resolved the problem which seems to be associated with the use of the HTTP Protocol version 1.1 rather than version 1.0. To force BOINC to use HTTP 1.0 do as follows: Create a cc_config.xml in your BOINC folder with the following contents: <cc_config> <options> <http_1_0>1</http_1_0> </options> </cc_config> Restart BOINC (reboot is easiest) for them to take effect Hope this helps any one else having similar problems and thanks to those who made the initial suggestion. |
