Hi there. I've upgraded my other Windows computers to 5.2.6 without problems, but when trying to upgrade from 4.43 to 5.2.6 on my Mandiva Linux 10.2 machine it is unable to upload or download work. I am able to attach to the project, it downloads the master file, starts existing work, but everytime it tries to communicate to upload or download it can't connect. It's not a firewall, if I downgrade back to 4.43 everything works fine. (Sorry I didn't save the error messages). Any suggestions? Thanks <table><tr><td><img src="http://seti.mundayweb.com/stats.php?userID=384&trans=off"></td><td><img src="http://boinc.mundayweb.com/seti2/stats.php?userID=1151&trans=off"></td></tr></table> |

Hmmm, IIRC BOINC 5 now use libcurl for data transfer, do you have this lib installed? OK, I've reinstalled 5.26.

Ok, this is very odd. After 24 hours of being unable to connect (while all other machines on the network have been connecting fine), this linux machine finally connected and downloaded workunits. I don't get it. All I can think of is that 5.2.6 has shortened the connect timeout, and since this machine is the slowest one I have, it may timeout sooner. |
