 Posted: Thu Jun 14, 2012 11:34 pm Post subject: Setting up BOINC |
 |
|
So, I followed the official how to.
But when I get to starting the daemon and attaching a project, I get:
| Code: | # /etc/init.d/boinc start
* Starting boinc ... [ ok ]
# /etc/init.d/boinc attach
* If you cant find your account key just try to obtain it by using:
* boinccmd --passwd PASSWORD_FROM_GUI_RPC_AUTH --lookup_account URL EMAIL PASSWORD
Enter the Project URL: <plop>
Enter your Account Key: <plop>
* boinc: Attaching to project ...
Error -155: authentication error [ !! ]

As the how to suggested, I removed the contents of /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg
Could that be the issue? |

When I start boincmgr I get:
| Code: | Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success)
Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success)
Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success)
Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success)
Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success) |
Etc etc.
I don't have a firewall configured.
Edit:
Amended so it has the correct error.

unmerge it, clean all files under /var and emerge it again.
then start the gui, don't delete /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg
first lets get the gui up and running.

Ok, I unmerged boinc, ran --depclean, removed /var/lib/boinc and remerged boinc.
When I run the boincmgr as user I get Error: Cannot get the official hostname (error 0: Success) messages again. Both when running the daemon and when not. Visually I get a red "Error" after a few seconds. |

in order for this to work, the daemon must be running.
what is the output of hostname cli cmd?

Yeah, thought so. But just trying the variables.

The machine is called "homesweethome" actually. |

6.12.42, the only version available in the tree. 7.0.25 is available upstream though, would that make a difference?
Edit:
Nah, I installed the upstream version in my home dir, but get the same error when running run_manager. |

something is messed up in your system, I'd suggest you'll post a question in the boinc forum

When you say you installed the 7.0.25 upstream version - I presume you used the self extracting script from the boinc website - if so delete that and all the directories and files it created. You also reported following a wiki entry undo anything you did in the optional setup hints. When you change the contents of /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg change it to something thats easy to remember don't just delete the contents and leave it blank. You should now be back to your portage installed version of 6.12.42. In a terminal enter | Code: | | sudo boinc_client --dir /var/lib/boinc/ |
the password it asks for is your sudo password then post the 20 or 30 lines of output here

I can, but it only installed things in my home folder, not systemwide.

Yeah, it was already reverted to its original state.

You're not running selinux or something that can interfere with privileges are you?
In the meantime search on the error message

I'll do the same - but I've got some real life stuff to attend to so I can't promise you a reply immediately
