I just did a Linux upgrade and WUProp failed and WUProp packets kept failing. | |

All four of my ubuntu 14.04 boxes started throwing this error since the early hours of the morning. One was rebuilt last night the other three have not been touched for a week or two, so doubt the update of Linux has anything to do with it. Windows is unaffected. | |

What do you have in /var/lib/boinc-client/projects/wuprop.boinc-af.org ? | |

I'll have to go and check but for me the 4v4.15 worked perfectly. As soon as I got 4v4.18 units they all fail both on 32 bit and 64 bit versions. | |

I started seeing this as of 12 hours or so ago as well on one of my Ubuntu boxes as well as a Fedora 21 machine. Nothing has changed on these boxes in the last week with respect to Linux updates or BOINC changes. | |

The Data Collect version 4 application was updated to v4.18 at 6:36 this morning. Link: Applications. | |

I'm wondering why my Xubuntu box is managing to process a v4.18 packet. If it is a 64-bit distro with 32-bit libraries installed it will probably work as the 64-bit executable is really 32-bits. | |

It is indeed a 64-bit distro with 32-bit libraries installed in addition. | |

So presumably, if one downloads Not sure. It would have to be renamed to x86_64 after the download/copy and if the project checks for MD5 or CRC32 it may fail as that would not match what is in the client_state.xml file. I'll give it a try and report back in a few minutes. Edit: That appears to work. I downloaded the file labeled as 32-bit, renamed it to the 64-bit name, ran ldd and file to check it (everything looked ok) and it has been running for 3 minutes. Will have to wait for 6 hours to see if it finished correctly and verifies. | |

I was also able to get one of my machines to run a WU by swapping 32/64-bit executables. The other machine has hit it's daily limit and refuses to download another WU, but that will probably reset at 00:00 UTC later today. | |

Looks like the Linux Apps has been updated which seems to have fixed the problem, my Linux vm has gotten a new WU which seems to be working fine. | |

Woot! Indeed, v4.19 (32 bit) has been running on this PC for 49 minutes. :-) | |
