Hi there

Download of new tasks with v262.90 ends up with download error and client trying to download new task with new VM image again and again (so actually set to no new tasks).

In BOINC directory I could see that the vdi.gz gets downloaded and a verify_temp file appears, vdi gets unpacked and than the error occurs in BOINC manager.

Stderr output:

<core_client_version>7.6.33</core_client_version>

Hi there

Since a few hours I get the message in BOINC manager "No new tasks available for Theory Simulation" and for the tasks I returned tonight, they surprisingly have the status "Pending/Waiting for validation".

Looks like somethings got some hiccup?

Hi Laurence

The VM provided for the Linux version was not current. The application has been updated (v262.80). Please try again.

It works fine now, Thank you a lot!

6) Message boards : Theory Application : 32Bit VM on Ubuntu - Could not get an x509 credential (Message 29469)

Hi there

Well, being one of the last ones to move over here (was running my "old" VMs standalone/nonstop, so now had to get familiar with BOINC again and the changes/developements took place), as "welcome back present" got some kind of bug or a bit too early easter egg. ;-)

Just tried to run Theory Application on Ubuntu 16.04 32Bit (BOINC 7.6.31 + VBox 5.0.32) and got few tasks I tried, but all were aborting after a few minutes with computation error.

Having a look into Stderr revealed the following:

[INFO] Requesting an X509 credential from vLHC@home
[INFO] Requesting an X509 credential from vLHC@home-dev
(... repeating a few times...)
Guest Log: [ERROR] Could not get an x509 credential
Guest Log: [ERROR] The x509 proxy creation failed.
Guest Log: [INFO] Shutting Down.
(11897): VM Completion File Detected.
(11897): VM Completion Message: The x509 proxy creation failed.

Full Stderr file
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=127326519

On my other machine (MacOS 64Bit - running fine) while VM is booting I could see its asking for the credential instead from LHC@home (as also can be seen here on one of the 64Bit fine results), so possibly the 32Bit VM distributed to Ubuntu needs a little update to ask there either?

Hi there

The same here, Stderr output for these tasks has messages like that one:
