Hi,

If you've not seen it prior, please visit this thread http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/...ead,24247_offset,0#213326 for past discussion on Websense.

Let us know if this has a fitting fix for you.

Trying to get the project from HTTPS, however something is not right.

Would there be a offline way to fetch project details ?

GIBA,

Local Preferences or Device Profiles settings or conflicts have about 0.0 to do with this problem, really. It's something in KR's Firewall or Client "Options" ** where things as proxy/http/socks are defined. Certainly I'm out of my depth here and given brinktastee at the time did not get past the problem, it's I think only WCG techs that could help to diagnose.

KR,

Please visit the cc_config.xml manual and set some extra network logging flags, so there's more feedback at what step of the connection things fall over.

** In the 6.12 client this screen has moved from the Advanced menu to the Tools > Display and Network Options. Think to have read that the 6.12 alpha client (not far from first public release), has further proxy configuration automation build in. knreed (WCG tech) surely will be way more informed on this.

edit: Your log suggests there is no proxy @Not using a proxy@, but don't trust that message, since when I've seen this when using an anonymous proxy on my Linux box.

edit2: did a google search on BOINC+websense+https and got this http://www.google.com/search?as_q=BOINC%2Bweb...s_rights=&safe=images which includes a hmmm solution to bypass Websense through a secure connection.

Sekerob,
for sure you have lot of knowledge and experience in WCG and Boinc client but many times I saw that you are wrong.

I respect your opinions and maybe you could be right this time, but I disagree 100% with your coments in this case for many reasons, but to simplify all, just due saw the same issue happens this year in one machine, just after installed 6.10.58 Boinc client release.

The way to solved it was clear the Boinc clients that are under local preferences, and after it take a complete review and some changes in my device profiles. Make it sense or not for you, it works for me !

Is impossible by now confirm that my problem was the same of kamaradski description, but appear be similar.

So, under my point of view, perspective and experience my suggestion appear be fair and valid to him, and additionally will not provoke any incovenience in nothing related with the issue if the solution willm pass for another way.

Last, but not least, obviously I'm not a tech or an expert on WCG or Boinc client issues, I'm just a cruncher with experience enough to share humbly with others that have willingness to read about, and right or wrong in my opinions, for sure I will not try block or invalidate suggestions to solve it from others here, as unfortunately I continuously saw in many posts across the forums.

Off topic, but need after read this kind of inapropriated, absurd and crazy coments:

I really hope that WCG Adm edit this bad post quoted above, maybe others.

Is obvious for me that a person that don't have capacity to support critics about your opinion or support any contrary opinion based on facts clearly explaned, don't have conditions to continue doing a constructive work here, at least not for me. Need get much more education before do it.

I would like to observe that I don't have any bad intention here, once my experience was with websense too, and I never will have intention to candidate myself or became anything in WCG, despite the absurds that this guy posted (maybe due his insecurity about I don't know what). Isn't the first time that this guy attack me on his coments in posts, and I really expect that WCG Adm take actions about it and to edit his coments, and my ones too if considered inapropriated.

Thank you in advance.
