Re: Can't upload

...others can learn from this.
I'd like to, but...

A week ago my FAAH result couldn't upload. I was surprised not to see any similar news on the forum, but well, we can wait...
Past few days I was waiting for any related message to pop up, until now:

Since 9.4.2008 my client is not able to upload to WCG (actually no cheduler communication with WCG), any other project can be communicated fine:

16.04.2008 15:23:35|| Suspending network activity - user request

During these 2-3 minutes, additional 8-9 projects were successfully contacted. I'm contacting the project servers over two different networks at diferent times of day, but just WCG is unavailable for me.

Maybe I should try to look for any garbage in Boinc XML files?
(Using WinXP client 5.10.45 - ahaaaa, it is self compiled client with self compiled libcurl.dll, this could be the culprit... Maybe I did indeed learn something :-) But still makes me wondering, why just WCG refuses to communicate with my client?

I've tried to restore the original Boinc executable and dll - no, my version was not the fault, still WCG is the only project scheduler, which refuses to communicate:
16-Apr-2008 16:14:00|WCG| [sched_op_debug] Starting scheduler request
16-Apr-2008 16:14:01|WCG| Sending scheduler request: Requested by user. Requesting 0 seconds of work, reporting 0 completed tasks

16-Apr-2008 16:14:06|WCG| [sched_op_debug] Reason: scheduler request failed

Anyone an idea?

Re: Can't upload

Yes, you have compiled libcurl without SSL support. Simple.

This line shows the error: 16.04.2008 15:23:19|WCG| Scheduler request failed: Unsupported protocol

Using the official client, it looks like your proxy settings are still wrong.

Simple as it is, this is most probably true. Thanks, David!
(To reply my own question "But still makes me wondering, why just WCG refuses to communicate with my client?" - in contrary to (most of) other projects, WCG apparently communicates over SSL.)

Using the official client, it looks like your proxy settings are still wrong.

Right, adding <force_auth>basic</force_auth> did the job (I'm now behind an auth proxy).

Thanks again. I've indeed learned my lesson blushing From testing the 5.10.40 I've remembered "I did not need to set the <force_ntlm> flag". BUT later it got renamed to (optional) <force_auth>, which I've probably had to set for WCG back then d oh
