Hey!!

Just wondering if anyone can help me. My old linux box is running a huge array of projects, but I have noticed that all einstein@home work units error after a few seconds run time. The exit code is 22 as reported in the task files.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Here is a link to the computer: http://einsteinathome.org/host/2740054

Thanks
Hammeh

Help with exit code 22

You probably forgot to install the 32bit libraries. See process exited with code 22 (0x16, -234) at the BOINC FAQ Service:

Quote:

When running a 64-bit Linux on a project that sends 32-bit applications only, you can run into results erroring out with process exited with code 22.

The explanation for this is that 32-bit binaries don't just work on every 64-bit Linux. If for example you install a fresh Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04, 32-bit binaries won't work. They are not even recognized as valid executables. You first have to install the ia32 package and dependent packages. Further, for programs that link with the graphic library, you will manually have to copy a 32-bit libglut library to the usr/lib32 directory.

If after this you still get client errors, post on the forums of the project that you have this problem and ran ldd on the executable in the projects directory to see what libraries are missing. Post which libraries these are and ask for instructions on how to get them.

Thanks for the help, I

Thanks for the help, I installed all the 32-bit libraries from synaptic and it now seems to be running happily. I will check and make sure that it continues to work on each difference type of work unit and post back if it fails. Fingers crossed all is good now.
