Linux and WCG v.2

[joshd]

OK, i am attempting to move more or less completely over to Ubuntu for normal PC use, and therefore need to get it folding.

I have sucessfully installed BOINC, but when i try to attatch to project, after putting in my username and password, it says:

"Failed to attatch to project

Click finish to close.

Messages from server:
-Project encountered internal error: shared memory."

What should I do?
thanks.

What does your system log say?

Usually in /var/log or /var/adm directory

[joshd]

nothing relavent as far as i can tell.

it is just going on about the wireless drivers.

Did you used Ubuntu version from the repositories(Synaptic or apt-get) or did you use the installer from Wcg?

[joshd]

i used the one from BOINC.

should i be using the ubuntu version?

EDIT: i tried it, and it does the same thing.

World community Grid shows up in the Project tab right?



Edit>I have a Boinc client crunching for wcg on linux myself. It has worked very good for atleast 5 days, but today i got this message


message from server:project encountered internal error:shared memory
Project is down

So maybe the boinc linux server has problems?

No.
