Post: Hi TJ. If both BOINC versions use "ProgramDATA and Program Files" it could still work (it's the registry keys that point to it). I think I remember that it was introduced in BOINC 6.x If the PING fails, you could try a tracert to that IP and if it fails at the first node, you have a local problem, because I can ping it all the way. There is no easier way to get the workunits transferred. The WUs are mentioned in several XML files and it's more work to find out where each WU is mentioned and modify that rather than copying the whole BOINC folder. If you have a PRE-BOINC 6.x version, try downloading a current version Setup file, it should be able to transition the workunits to the new version. Cheers, Sysfried |

Post: Ok, here it goes with the "Boinc Transfer HOWTO": This applies if you have one machine without proper internet (it could be a powerful machine behind a tight firewall or simply without enough bandwith). PC#1 is the one without internet PC#2 is the one with internet connection. Assuming that both have more or less the same BOINC version and both run windows. Also assuming that PC#2 also does BOINC. If it doesn't, skip the backup and restore parts. First step: Locate all BOINC Files on your PC#2. Stop BOINC (check taskmanager) and rename the two primary folders: C:\Program Files\BOINC and C:\ProgramData\BOINC and rename the folder to: BOINC_backup Second step: Make sure BOINC is not running while you do this! Then create ZIP Files of those files on PC#1 (I call them: Program_Files_BOINC.zip and ProgramData_BOINC.zip) put them on a USB stick and get them transferred to PC#2. Put them into the right destination (Program_Files_BOINC.zip goes to: c:\Program Files\ and you should figure where the other file goes to... UNZIP both files. Third step: Start BOINC Manager. Now you should see all workunits that have been processed on your PC#1 and just in case you don't have "networking disabled", it should automatically upload. You might want to use this point to grab some new work if any is available.... Then make sure the results are submitted and a manual refresh on the project makes sure they dissapear from your "Tasks" tab. After that is done, end BOINC Manager. Fourth step: Zip the folders like you did on PC#1 (or step #2) and move them back to your PC#1 so you can run BOINC there again. Delete the BOINC folders on the PC#2 (ONLY BOINC NOT BOINC_BACKUP!!!!!) Rename the folders again and your PC#2 should be able to continue work. Fifth step: Just to make sure, rename BOINC to BOINC_OLD and unzip the files you just brought back to your internet-less PC. Just to assure you don't run into issues with overwriting files.... Restart BOINC. This Howto is much easier if you use Linux. Where the BOINC Files are all in the same directory (wherever you had the boinc installer extract it to). In my case, this is: /home/sysfried/Downloads/BOINC Now you wonder why this works? Well, the BOINC installer will create a unique ID in one of the XML files (don't ask me which one) to identify the host. Resetting the Project will also create a new UIN. CPU ID changes or maybe even the platform (Intel vs. AMD), will not affect the unique ID of the BOINC host. This is only a workaround for your problem TJ, but I hope it helps you submit your WUs. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Sysfried |

Post: Do you have an alternative PC where you could upload the WUs from? There are ways to move your BOINC installation to a alternative PC. Also, please check if you have a firewall on your PC, on your Router. Please also check the "hosts" file. Maybe it contains false entries. On Windows, it can be found in the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc path. If you find lhc related entries there, remove them, because they could override your DNS settings. also, please ping: lhcathomeclassic.cern.ch for me, it resolves to: boinc05.cern.ch (128.142.128.22) hope I can help. you may also contact me with a friend request, so I can give you my email. Cheers, Sysfried |

LHC on Windows XP 64-Edition

Post: Gut! :-) It says here: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/apps.php that there are only x86 versions of the LHC client... I recommend installing the 32-bit Boinc software on your host. Windows XP-64 can run 32 bit Boinc Manager and Apps without problems. It's just that there are few projects that have 64 bit clients. regards, sysfried |

Post: I still have a pending credit. It will stay there until it will be deleted forever. You will not get any credit for that. All the other results have their credits granted and the result files have been removed from the server, so you will end up with nothing. Sorry, man! |

Agreed! If the admins ever decide to return to this project, they just may send out some sort of newsletter, otherwise I won't check the site anymore. I'll disconnect my hosts within the next few days. It's been nice, but not nice enough. Have a good life everyone out here !! Sysfried |
