Can't attach to SETI project

Post: The password in the attach wizard in Boinc Manager is set here. You set it yourself. It's not any old password. I'm getting ping times of about 238 so that seems fine. Here's what appears in the messages list after the attach attempt fails. Fetching config info from http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/get_project_config.php Missing account key Master File download succeeded Sending scheduler request to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi Reason: Requested by user Requesting 8640 seconds of new work Scheduler request to http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah_cgi/cgi failed with a return value of 500 No schedulers responded Cound't connect to URL http://setiboinc.ssl.berkeley.edu/.Please check URL.

Post: The password in the attach wizard in Boinc Manager is set here. You set it yourself. It's not any old password. Thanks for these links. I can't understand why it wasn't easier to find these links from the home or my account pages, but there you go. Still, after receiving my email I still can't connect. Using my email and password, or the account key in the password field itself produces the same "Can't attach" error. However, putting my email as well as the account key in the password gives me an "Account not found - Check the email and password and try again" error. I'm going to try tracing to see if it's a problem with our corporate firewall. Does BOINC use any specific ports that need to be unblocked? |

Post: I'm trying to move over to BOINC from the SETI client but find I cannot attach to the project. I enter the project URL (http://setiathome.berkeley.edu), hit "Use existing account", enter my email and password and hit next. After the "Communicating with project Please wait..." screen, I get "Failed to attach to project" with no messages from the server. If I use my browser to get to the SETI home page and click on the special instructions for classic users, I enter my email address for the account and hit ok to get my account key. It says an email is sent but it never arrives (and yes, I've checked my spam folders). The only thing I can think of is that when BOINC first came out I switched to it, found it too buggy (on Windows) so I uninstalled it. (My original subscription email was destroyed during an Exchange server crash.) Maybe previously switching is causing a problem? Anyway, I would hate to lose my stats, having been a member since 1999. Anyone got any ideas? |

Post: I'm getting run time errors whenever Boinc tries to do any work on any unit. It clicks like mad an comes up with a window titled "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" and the message is: ------------------------------------------------ Runtime Error! Program: ...athome.berkeley.edu\\setiathome_4.03_windows_intelx86.exe abnormal program termination ------------------------------------------------ Surely I can't be the only one getting these? I tried using the search forums feature on the site, but I couldn't get anything, |
