Einstein@Home scheduler URL changed
Submitted on 9 Oct 2014 8:07:29 UTC
The URL of the Einstein@Home scheduler was changed. Clients should automatically adjust to that, there is no real need for manual intervention. Until the Clients have recognized that change, you may see "file not found" error messages. The Clients should recognize the new scheduler URL after 10 such failures. If you want to speed things up, you may "update" the project manually a few times to skip the automatic backoff time.

Einstein@Home scheduler URL changed

Not sure if this is related or not but my E@H credit count for "today's" period (61,275,961) is 1 credit less than yesterdays (61,275,962). Normally I would see about a 100K increase over yesterday. Are statistics not being reported to boincstats?

I'm also missing a lot of credits in my Boincstats statistic although the tasks were reported as validated at my Einstein account. And regarding the status schedulers at Boincstats Einstein is still being reported as "offline". Perhaps Boincstats has to update the URL for its Einsten statistics?

But the -1 credit difference, ehm... Maybe some sort of penalty was applied? ;-)

Indeed stats aren't exported yet by the project, we're working on it.

You seem to foreward from the old scheduler URL to the new one but for some reason this results in this message :
"error in request message: no start tag"
so the foreward could as well be dropped.
RE: You seem to foreward

Where precisely do you see this message? The PermanentRedirect apparently works for most of the BOINC Clients (thanks to the underlying CURL lib).

Boinc 5.10.28, that dates from 2007, probably an Alpha/Beta version, there's been at least one Curl Bug found since then, Boinc 5.10.30 had two Curl fixes, (there's been others since):
- DEP: Update libCurl to 7.17.1
- Fix build break introduced by new libcurl headers on Windows.

It is really time you upgraded, Boinc 7.2.42 is the latest Recommended and has very few problems.

Not Alpha/Beta ... but you're right, it is not exactly the latest version ... but way newer than 4.29, which didn't use cURL at all ;-)
Detach/Attach helped of course, that enforced a re-evaluation of the master file and gave me the fresh scheduler location.
Just out of curiousity ... I'm using the Apache RewriteEngine for some quite special forewards, would that be affected by such a cURL bug too?
RE: Not Alpha/Beta

I beg to differ, Boinc 5.10.28 was announced on the Boinc alpha list for testing on 29th Oct 2007, It was not a recommended release,
Boinc 5.10.45 was the recommended release for the 5.10.x line, anything before that will have been Alpha builds for testing the latest fixes, before moving onto the next build:
Boinc 5.10.x was finally released on 11th March 2008:

Hallo! I´m using BOINC

Hallo!
I´m using BOINC 7.2.42(x64) but still the response time especially for the "Discussion Forum" is unsatisfactory long with 20 to 30 sec at me. For the "Server Status Page" it´s with about 1 sec good, similar for "Your Computer", but for the "List of Tasks" it is with 5 to 6 sec a bit slow at me.
Kind regards and happy crunching

RE: Hallo! I´m using BOINC

This is unrelated to your BOINC version. It's a problem on the server side.
It is being discussed in this thread and Bernd is working on a fix. For me at least the forum is much snappier today, so maybe he has already done something.

RE: Since Oct 8 I get the

I'm guessing it is THIS PC since some tasks have timed out.
1) Open BOINC
2) click on Projects tab, highlight/click on line for Einstein@home
3) click on Update button
4) wait one - two minutes to see if it has started sending or has finished reporting the completed tasks.
Once it has sent the tasks it will have received the new scheduler address...
If not, repeat steps 2, 3 & 4. This might have to be repeated up to 10 times due to the way BOINC was created.

If even a re-install doesn't help, multiple updates won't help either.
How long does the front page http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/ take to load in a browser on the computer in question?
Do you get a "http error" in the Client before the "No scheduler URLs found" message?

Normaly an re-attach should solve it.

Logs show:-

28/01/2015 17:15:59 | | Internet access OK - project servers may be temporarily down.
So there is some sort of comms failure.
