Bonjour.j'ai fait une installation neuve de linux mint 22 avec virtualbox 7.2 et toutes mes taches CMS partent en erreur mais pas les taches THEORY.
D'habitude je trouve plus ou moins une solution en cherchant dans des forums mais la rien.Je suis dépassé.je fais une copie d un journal d'erreur.
est ce quelqu'un voit ou est mon probleme?
Merci d'avance.

Hello. I did a new installation of linux mint 22 with virtualbox 7.2 and all my CMS tasks go in error but not the THEORY tasks.
Usually I more or less find a solution by looking in forums but nothing. I am overwhelmed. I make a copy of an error log.
is it someone sees where is my problem?
Thank you in advance.

Your log seems to match https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=6302&postid=52096 so maybe the solution is to reset the project in the BOINC Manager and maybe also restart the local Squid with an empty cache, assuming that you are running a local squid.

Merci pour la réponse rapide mais c'est du chinois pour moi.
Je ne sais pas comment faire tout ça.


Thank you for the quick response but it’s Chinese to me.
I don’t know how to do all that.

il semble que je n'ai pas squid dans mon linux mint.


it seems that I don’t have squid in my linux mint.

This looks weird since vocms0267.cern.ch has been replaced by vocms267.cern.ch long ago.
May be your vdi file has been corrupted.

Your Theory logs also show some weird entries, e.g.:

2025-09-03 10:54:55 (4216): Guest Log: Could not download a wpad.dat from lhchomeproxy.{cern.ch|fnal.gov}

You should finish and report all LHC work
then do a project reset
then do a reboot before you allow fresh work

Be aware that CMS announced a maintenance outage (WMAgent) to happen tonight or tomorrow.

merci.
J ai recommencer le projet dans boinc puis installer extension pack 7.2.
Je vais recommencer.

thank you.
I started the project again in boinc then installed extension pack 7.2.
I will start again.

This system is using VirtualBox 7.2, which is quite new. There may be new problems that will take time to resolve. If it is convenient to remove version 7.2 (and extension pack) and install an older version 7.1.{some recent minor release} it would provide useful information if the older version works. If you choose to test that, you can download 7.1 from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_7_1

In any case, the first error in your log

indicates a networking problem from the guest OS back to cern. "Could not resolve..." indicates that even name translation isn't working. Host networking is obviously working or BOINC wouldn't be able to get as far as it does.

There is a suggestion in the forums at virtualbox.org that the kernel module vboxnetadp is required in the host linux and that it can be missing in new VirtualBox 7.2 installations. Use 'lsmod' to see if vboxnetadp is present on your system. I'm not familiar with Linux Mint so I can't say how to find vboxnetadp if it's missing.

I had already tested with virtualbox 7.16 and it worked on an old Linux installation.
I deleted virtualbox 7.2 and installed virtualbox 7.12.
I am in the process of testing
Thank you for your help

Vbox 7.2. local proxy (squid) works perfect with atlas and theory.

as Ivan wrote yesterday, they are working on the problem.
However, I guess results will not happen before beginning next week.
Meanwhile, you may switch to Theory subproject - this works fine.

Broken again for me, cant be arsed to keep babysitting the app so ill just leave it running, units fail they fail.

Yes, it's apparently a problem with the Certificate Authority (which checks to ensure certificates are valid and/or issues new certificates). The CA has been made aware of the problem, but I've no information on how long it will take to fix.

Ah, we have jobs running again, so someone fixed it!
For the avoidance of doubt, you can now set "allow new tasks" again, if you want.

Right, they are running.

for the past few hours, all CMS tasks on all of my hosts are failing after about 1/2 hour.
