Thank you for all the hard work. On my Linux machines, I have now added MilkyWay@home back successfully.

Question - Is credit for work done now working as well?

The certificate issue seems to be resolved now -- I was able to get MW up and running again on my Linux systems from around 15:45 UTC on 2023-11-06. It even worked as I wanted once I remembered that I needed to restore/rebuild my app_config.xml files to cut the number of threads per task :-)

Thank you Kevin and the RPI techs.

Cheers - Al.


Yes the issue with the certificates has been fixed.
Please let me know if there are other issues with connecting.
I will keep checking this thread as I work to fix all the issues.

Thank you for everyone working on the connection issue with MilkyWay@home. I have a couple Boinc processes happening on Linux (ubuntu, ubuntu server) and they are all experiencing the same issue. I removed the MilkyWay@home connection, tried to reconnect (or add new project), and I have tried with both the -new address and the old one. All attempts result in "Failed to connect, try again later". I am aware of the issue with certificates, and I am patient in waiting for the solution.

Someone on our Discord Server asked if there was a problem connecting and I gave them a link to this thread.

I look forward to a solution and I am willing to try to connect whenever you want to try to see if a solution works.

Cheers and keep up the good work.

I don't know if this detail will help, but I had no problem re-adding the project on my PC's running Windows. However, I received the same "Please try again later" message as some others when attempting to re-add the project on my PC's running Linux.


My linux machines are all not letting me add it back after deleting the original connection. I have tried with http and https with the address given in the message. Earlier I could not log into my account online (error was, no email matching mine), that is working again and I can log in online to the website.

Hey Brewsmithy,

You usually contact me but yesterday was a particularly busy day around the office. I made some changes and didn't realize the feeder died. One of the scientists in our research group (not one working on MW@home) defended his PhD thesis yesterday so we were all quite busy.

Jake,

Thank you, and everyone else who makes Milkyway@home possible, thank you for your hard work.

Cheers!!

For some reason a day ago my work completed work units stopped uploading and the communication deferred update has gone to two and a half hours. Once I check on task it shows many to be validation inconclusive before my 60 tasks got locked in progress. Any ideas on what is going on so I can continue my crunching.


Hi, server feeder is not working -

Hi everyone

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/server_status.php

This showed up this morning - and continues.

Can we get someone to look at it? My boinc is putting out the error - Server error: feeder not running - and looking at the server page on the above link, it indeed is not running. . .

Can we get a tech to reset something?

Cheers!!
