Not receiving CEP2 tasks

Hi,

I have a remote server running ubuntu 14.04. I installed boinc and attached wcg through boinccmd --project_attach, and it has run like that since. I would like to run CEP2 too, but am not getting any tasks.

I have selected CEP2 (10 tasks allowed in the profile 'school') and OET, and only received OET. When I untick OET and tick UGM instead, I only get UGM and still no CEP2. When I only have CEP2 ticked I get "no tasks available" message.

I receive CEP2 on my W7 laptop, so assume something is missing on my ubuntu server.

Any help is appreciated

Re: Not receiving CEP2 tasks

Do you have 64-bit Ubuntu installed?
CEP2 is a 32-bit application. There are two ways to make cep2 run:
- install the missing 32-bit libraries
or
- modify a boinc config

I'm going to search for a thread in wcg-forums and see if I can find the thread for you.

Edit:
Installing Boinc: Scroll down to the Ubuntu section to see the list of missing libraries.

I've described the changes in cc_config.xml in this post: cc_config.xml

Re: Not receiving CEP2 tasks

As discussed in other threads, the cc_config route has a drawback: Other applications that are available in 64 bit won't come anymore, which is why the libraries installation is the better choice.

As for those referred in the wiki, they're kind of outdated. On my 14.04 LTS installed a different set. One is mentioned here: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewpostinthread?post=480911

And an WCG FAQ discussing the matter: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,34882

Oh dear, at bottom there was a promise to look into the messaging. Still the same, non-revealing. sad

Re: Not receiving CEP2 tasks

sure, as per the boinc wiki you linked to I installed:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libstdc++6 libstdc++5 freeglut3

Then installer told that ia32-libs was obsolete and replaced by lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 so installed those

Then followed Robs link and installed gcc-4.7-multilib

Then restarted boinc sudo service boinc-client restart

Don't know if all steps were necessary, but it worked...

Re: Not receiving CEP2 tasks

Have we by any chance caught up with all the work units? Is that the reason for no work? Has the well dried up?

These days I've stopped storing work, and literally download > compute > upload straight away.
None of my crunchers have anything to bite into!!!
Updating Boinc to 7.6.9........
