LHC@home

If Cern does not want X86 hosts running tasks here it is as easy as not sending out tasks for X86/32bit hosts.

What can I do on my Windows Vista 32 bit that cannot be upgraded to 64 bit. It has worked since 2011 OK for LHC@Home?

I have Rosetta working OK, for a month but even if I turn all those Rosetta off I now have a totally completed LHC@Home that has been stuck with "Ready to report" for 3 days.

In the week before that I ran 1 Rosetta and I LHC@Home both working properly.and upgrading properly.

Two weird things:
Why was an Android Boinc issued that didn't sort it?
Why haven't LHC done what Rosetta did and sort it at their end? Rosetta now works on any Boinc version.

It is to STAY at the top of this thread so when ANYONE wonders why this happened they come here and fix the problem in mere minutes.

So one more try.

For Windows 10 X64 all you do is update BOINC.......no magic tricks.
Worked the same with Win 7 X64

Version 7.16.7

Suspend your work and then X-out your current version of BOINC and update to this version and reboot and all your finished tasks will go to Cern servers and leave your BOINC Manager Tasks finished page and then continue your work and they will return when finished as usual.

Worked the same with Win 7 X64

Keith is having a problem with an Android 7.0 phone, not windows.

My phone lets me in settings disable individual certificates, so I would have thought we could just turn off the offending one, if anyone knows what it's called.

There are actually 4 expired AddTrust certificates, with names that include: Class 1, Public, Qualified, and External.
All 4 expired on 30 May 2020.


https://support.sectigo.com/articles/Knowledge/Sectigo-AddTrust-External-CA-Root-Expiring-May-30-2020 appears to be the authoritative reference from the issuer.

I have tried disabling them all, without success on 7.16.5 for Android.

That doesn't make sense. Either it's not disabling what you tell it to, or something else has expired. Or perhaps Rosetta had the option of using a different one in the list and LHC does not, so what you've done is given it no certificates to try?

A new version of Boinc is out. (7.16.7) I downloaded it this morning and all is well!. Old WU uploaded and new ones downloaded. Pick
