Spot the oldest / oddest BOINC client

With the advent of seeing the result logs of wingman in quorums, it's curious what versions are (still) in circulation. Here's one:

HCMD2 job <core_client_version>5.4.11</core_client_version>

Considering WCG requires the SSL feature in any BOINC client, think this is pretty much the oldest to get work here. Have you seen any... version 5.6.3 for instance and on what job? If it's not broken, no need to fix it smile

Re: Spot the oldest / oddest BOINC client

I broke my Linux server today crying had to rebuild from scratch... what isn't broken doesn't need updating i guess...


On the bright side i salvaged all the boinc files laughing

I still have two boxes running this version. Very stable, no need to change, at least at this time.

Re: Spot the oldest / oddest BOINC client

Okay, I thought I had found an old one: v 5.4.9 on Rice actually there were two separate v 5.4.9 's on that WU:

R00290_042e5791cb0db9b15eb417cbb_00_18_7 on 6/21-23 Both were valid


and then I seen this v 5.2.13 Rice that erred :

Result Log

<core_client_version>5.2.13</core_client_version>
<message>WU download error: couldn't get input files:
<file_xfer_error>
<file_name>rice.best_correlated_groups.gzb</file_name>
<error_code>-200</error_code>
<error_message></error_message>
</file_xfer_error>
<file_xfer_error>
<file_name>rice.minimum_distances.gzb</file_name>
<error_code>-200</error_code>
<error_message></error_message>
</file_xfer_error>

</message>

WU: R00283_ b804a31cc56beeb1c8fb1d49ced81304_ 00_ 001_ 0- for the 6/12

So I don't know if it's the oldest, but it sure looks odd.
