Message 6768 - Posted 2 Jul 2012 21:48:53 UTC

Hi
Getting computation errors on all the Docking tasks, when running on Linux (Ubuntu). This happens almost immediately it starts processing (within 1 second).

I have tried completely removing the project and re-adding it but to no avail.

This happens on two separate machines, both running Ubuntu 12.4

Other projects run fine.

Any ideas?

Sam

There is a KNOWN BUG (Process exited with code 193) with the default BOINC version that came pre-installed with Ubuntu 12.04.

It has been discussed here:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=67912&nowrap=true#1234302

I have also provided the "fixing" information below. Just follow the steps highlighted in GREEN .

They have updated/working packages for Boinc in the PPA repository.
Install the PPA ...use the commands below:

Recap on removing broken boinc, installing the PPA, and installing this boinc (for Ubuntu 12.04 desktop) Using a terminal:
    sudo apt-get remove boinc
    sudo apt-get autoremove
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:costamagnagianfranco/boinc
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install boinc



Also: once you get your Boinc running and not reporting errors, and getting some validations: It's probably a good idea to remove the ppa to avoid further breakages by continuing updates from the PPA. You can remove the ppa (from ubuntu 12.04 only) by:
    sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/costamagnagianfranco-boinc-precise.list
    sudo apt-get update



Hope this helps you. It worked for me.
