Topic 216092

I keep getting this "8/12/2018 5:49:50 PM | Einstein@Home | Scheduler request failed: HTTP file not found" in Event Log when hitting Update.  How do I fix this and get the computer to Update properly...

This is QUITE important, as the system in question NOW has completely NEW hardware.

Old Specs were:

Intel Quad Core Extreme QX9650 at 3GHz, TWO EVGA GTX-750TI SC GPUs and 16GB DDR2 A-Tech RAM.

 

New Specs:

Intel i7 7700K at 4.2GHz, TWO EVGA GTX-1050 GPUs and 32GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance RAM.

 

ClientState.xml is Original and has proper Computer ID and Post Count.  This is due to the fact that the Hard Drive and OS were PROFESSIONALLY reconditioned to work with the new hardware, NO reinstall of the OS was needed.  DID have to Reactivate OS with Microsoft.

OS is Win7 Pro x64 SP-1 and has been Updated.  EVGA Drivers are now 388.13 WHQL and were "Clean" Installed and work perfectly with SETI@Home.

Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated.  I'd REALLY like to get this system recognized on Einstein again.  Computer ID is 11698482.

[UPDATE:]

 

In BOINC with Einstein@Home selected, I tested the Links to the Einstein@Home Web Pages...  The appropriate Pages come up in my FF Browser when clicking ANY of the BOINC Buttons.  So, BOINC "KNOWS" the correct Web Page(s) to connect to for "browsing"; why NOT also to connect to the work Server(s) to Update system specs and get new work???

[EDIT:]  After the Hardware was Upgraded and Win7 Pro Reactivated, I DID ALSO Upgrade BOINC from 7.4.42 to 7.12.1.

[Update 2:]

I chose to perform a Project Reset.  This took care of the HTTP Error and allowed the Update to complete.  The new Hardware info is now correctly being displayed under the original Computer ID.  :-)
