Both my raspberry pis aren't able to get jobs from E@H at the moment. I've tried resetting the project, but whenever updating i get this:

Thu 14 Apr 21:21:50 2016 | http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/ | update requested by user
Thu 14 Apr 21:21:55 2016 | http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/ | Fetching scheduler list
Thu 14 Apr 21:21:57 2016 | | Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
Thu 14 Apr 21:21:58 2016 | | Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.

Both RPi's running Raspbian Jessie, no issues with internet, both RPi's currently crunching Collatz without issue. Any ideas?

Yes. This looks like the certificate issue. There is still no solution for Debian Jessie.

If he has a Pi2 or Pi3 he could upgrade to Stretch and get a more up to date BOINC client too. One of them looks like it's a B or B+ (maybe even a zero) which I don't recommend doing.

I was kind of afraid it might be that, but I'd only seen it on another thread about PPCs (?). Thanks for the links. I'll keep an eye out for the fix.

I compile the client myself - it always seems a bit of a stab in the dark finding a version that will compile without errors and work fairly reliably, and that's more up to date than the repository version (this was more of an issue back in Wheezy). 7.5.0 seems to, but it's about a year since I've tried again. I might look into Stretch but it is kinda handy to have the B and the 2 using basically the same image.
