Unaccountably, one of my boinc systems has einsteinathome.org and others have einstein.phys.uwm.edu

Error message said it was an old url and to detach and re-attach so I did but...

I did that and still got einsteinathome.org.
I even detaching again and still got that url

Did something happen after the database update today?

from account_einsteinathome.org at c:\ProjectData\Boinc

  • <master_url>https://einsteinathome.org/</master_url>

 When I put together cc_config.xml I had to use the following instead of that einstein.phys.uwm.edu

<exclude_gpu>
<url>https://einsteinathome.org/</url>
<device_num>1</device_num>
</exclude_gpu>

 Well, maybe this system has the correct url and einstein.phys.uwm.edu is the old one???  Maybe this is punishment for using grcpool?

There are two different

There are two different URLs.  The <master_url> should be einstein.phys.uwm.edu.  I imagine this is what is being referred to by the Wiki instructions on boinc.berkeley.edu for client configuration when they use the term "project_URL".

The <scheduler_url> should be https://scheduler.einsteinathome.org/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi.  This is what is needed in the state file for when scheduler requests are made for receiving or reporting work.

If I were you, I'd take a close look at the state file for a working machine and then make sure that a non-working machine had exactly the same strings in the relevant places.  Of course, do this with BOINC stopped.

 

Cheers,
