Check your firewall. It could be that your firewall's permission for the older BOINC to communicate did not carry forward to BOINC 5.2.2.

The website shows you have two boxes, at least one of which is running 5.2.2. The newer CPUID has not yet completed a result so I can't tell what version of BOINC it is running. The one that is running 5.2.2 has had a couple of client errors.

Do you actually have two very similar computers or do you have an extra CPUID for the same box? Can you give more details of what you have been attempting to do?

Cheers,
Gary.

Peary,

Your symptoms (not being able to connect on all projects; and, the problem occurring after upgrading) makes me think it is a firewall problem. That is, your firewall was probably configured to allow v4.45 to communicate; but, when you changed to v5.2.2, the firewall blocked communication because it didn't recognize the "new" program. Can you temporarily disable your firewall to see if BOINC will work then? (Just don't leave it off for long.)

ok. managed to get 445 to

ok. managed to get 445 to work now. seems like some projects are not ready for v5xx. so i'll use back 445.
i'm using company pc. so firewall is control by admin. dont think its firewall problem. coz i try setup a project using 445, then close it and install 522 before boinc manage to finish downloading the whole project. after installing 522, boinc can contiune downloading those files which are in the transfer list. but it cant get new files from the server.
