LHC@home

I get the following messages can you explain

-can't resolve hostname lhcathome-sched1.cern.ch (valid name, no data record of request type)
-Schedular init_op_project to http://lhcathome-sched1.cern.ch/scheduler/cgi failed, error -113
-inot_op_project failed, error -113

for some reason i dont think that sixtrack is updated also???

The LHC@Home servers have been up and down quite a bit over the last few days. The error is a name resolution error - probably as a result of the server your client is trying to reach being down for an extended period, and the DNS caches have expired as a result.

CERN have new servers and are ostensibly working to bring the project up again, although there's not much evidence of this as yet.


If you wait and run other BOINC projects all will come right.
