Topic 193876

I installed BOINC on two of my computers. On one of the comps everything is working fine. On the other comp I get the following messages:

8/23/2008 8:17:31 AM|Einstein@Home|Sending scheduler request: Requested by user. Requesting 0 seconds of work, reporting 0 completed tasks
8/23/2008 8:19:36 AM|Einstein@Home|Scheduler request failed: HTTP internal server error

I am also attached to the SETI project and that projct is working fine crunching away.

One thing I did notice was that in the Projects tab my account name only appears for the SETI project and not the others like E@H. On my other computer my account name is listed for all the projects. How could I fix this?

Scheduler Request Failed

According to your computers list you only attached one computer (hostID1580490). So the other one didn't attach correctly. If you go to the BOINC Data directory, do you have an account_einstein.phys.uwm.edu.xml file and does it have anything in it? (DON'T post the contents of it here!!!)

Else just detach that computer from Einstein and reattach. If Detaching doesn't work, exit BOINC completely (by default BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Advanced->Shut down connected client and BOINC Manager->File->Exit.), delete the account_*.xml file if present and restart BOINC Manager (Start->Programs->BOINC->BOINC Manager)

Make sure you use the same email address and password for it as you did with the computer that is attached, so both get attached under the same user account.

I have done what you recommended but it still did not work. Any other suggestions before I give up on this computer? :) LOL

You did allow BOINC to go

You did allow BOINC to go through the firewall on that computer? It'll need internet access on ports 80 and 443.

Yes it is allowed. Why would SETI at Home connect and not the rest?
