Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
I have just upgraded from the UD client to BOINC 5.10.22 on my W2K Pro machine and am unable to get work:

22/10/2007 4:23:00 PM||Fetching configuration file from http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/get_project_config.php
22/10/2007 4:25:42 PM|http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/|Sending scheduler request: Requested by user

22/10/2007 4:25:47 PM|http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/|Reason: scheduler request failed

I'd be grateful for any suggestions on how to resolve this.

Many thanks,

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
Did you have an internet connection when you were requesting work?

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
Yes, there is an always-on internet connection.

I may also be reading this wrong, but it seems to me that the configuration file was fetched correctly from the server, but the work request failed.

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
hi eviltoad,

Can you post more of the message log from before and after the lines you already shared earlier.

The "failure when receiving data from the peer" has appeared in threads discussing proxy issues. Is there one and if so would you mind visiting and join in there:

Thank you, Sekerob.

I've skimmed through the thread and have found a few things I can try. Will let you know the results later today.

I've now upgraded to BOINC 5.10.23. Here's the text from the messages tab:

I've also created cc_config.xml and inserted the debug statements. On reloading the config file I get more detailed messages which I can't post until I've sanitized certain information, but what I gather from it is that the proxy server is running Squid 2.61STABLE14 and using NTLM authentication. It would appear that there are problems with authentication.

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
Well, I've tried upgrading to 5.10.26 in a last-ditch attempt to get the BOINC client working, but no go.

I'm reverting to the UD client (which has no problems connecting with WCG servers) for now.

With any luck, a BOINC client compatible with my environment will be released before the UD projects go dark.

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
Please visit the next thread over at BOINC dev forum. Several people assert that they have the proxy with NTLM working on the previous recommended version 5.8.16. A download link is provided there.

Re: Upgraded to BOINC on Win2KPro PC, cannot get work
Hello.

wcg on BOINC dont work with an ISA proxy on any recent versions.
Version 5.8.16 of BOINC works for other projects but not with wcg. Probably something to do with the use of SSL.
