[2021-04-21 19:03:22] Efficiency of ATLAS tasks can be improved by the following measure(s):
[2021-04-21 19:03:22] The CVMFS client on this computer should be configured to use Cloudflare's openhtc.io.
[2021-04-21 19:03:22] Small home clusters do not require a local http proxy but it is suggested if

Hi,

I'm having exactly the same issue as djoser.
All my ATLAS Job go on error since 14/04.
With the same error (not the same folder) :
2021-04-18 11:27:14] FATAL:   container creation failed: hook function for tag prelayer returns error: failed to create /var/lib/alternatives directory: mkdir /var/lib/alternatives: permission denied

For exemple, one of my last tasks : https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=313045776

4) Questions and Answers : Windows : All vBox WU in error (Message 43582)
Posted 7 Nov 2020 by tatayet64
Post:
Hi,

All my WU (CMS, Theory) using vbox are in error after about 16s.
The error is :
VBoxManage.exe: error: Failed to create the VirtualBox object!
VBoxManage.exe: error: The object is not ready
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_ACCESSDENIED (0x80070005), component VirtualBoxClientWrap, interface IVirtualBoxClient

for example : https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=288741188

I see the ACCESsDENIED but don't know how to fix

I have tried :
- upgrade Vbox to the las version
- uninstall vbox and BOINC and then reinstall both with the official package from BOINC

I don't know what to do more.
Any idea ?
