Atlas tasks have started to fail.
When i look at workunit data i see that they fail with other computers too.

There is another problem
It assumes boinc data is located in /var/lib/boinc-client, while latest versions from https://boinc.berkeley.edu/linux_install.php install it in /var/lib/boinc

Docker tasks crash on linux.
I have been getting .
permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Head "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/_ping": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied

I was able to fix this error by adding user boinc to group docker.

Now they fail with
running docker command: create --name boinc__lhcathomedev.cern.ch_lhcathome-dev__theory_2843-4237522-529_1  -v .:/shared  -p 48401:80 --log-driver=k8s-file --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --device /dev/fuse boinc__lhcathomedev.cern.ch_lhcathome-dev__theory_2843-4237522-529
Error response from daemon: error looking up logging plugin k8s-file: plugin "k8s-file" not found

Do i have to install kubernetes?

I don't know.
Maybe you didn't run cvmfs_config setup, or didn't restart autofs after making configuration changes with systemctl restart autofs?

Post:
it is connected to a default venue.
When i enable " If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications" and only have Theory selected i get Atlas workunits. When i disable "If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications" i get Theory workunits. Maybe it is because i use Nightly boinc build from https://boinc.berkeley.edu/linux_install.php ?

Run native if available? or If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications?
Can somebody explain why it works like that?

Only 12?
So it won't be able to blast all 400 events with a 256 cores cpu?

Also Why does lhcathome give me Atlas workunits when i set settings to
SixTrack: no
sixtracktest: no
CMS Simulation: no
Theory Simulation: yes
ATLAS Simulation: no
If no work for selected applications is available, accept work from other applications? yes

I think number of events planned should be present in the beginning of runRivet.log
I think it is 16000 for me.

Can you look in your runRivet.log?
I think you should be able to press Show Graphics to open browser window with logs.

They display integrate 1 of 760
This number increases over time, but too slow.
