Pine64 boinc doesn't retrieve tasks

Hello everybody,

i've installed armbian on a pine64+ and boinc to donate it to worldcomunitygrid. I've succesfully attached boinc (version 7.14.2 aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu) to the project but it doesn't retrive any tasks. Looking to the project it's reported working on arm platform / linux so i wonder why it doesn't work. Someone can help?

Thanks

Re: Pine64 boinc doesn't retrieve tasks

Found on sched_reply_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml:

the message:

<message priority="notice">_("This project doesn't support computers of type") aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu</message>

my cc_config.xml

<cc_config>
<log_flags>
<task>1</task>
<file_xfer>1</file_xfer>
<sched_ops>1</sched_ops>
</log_flags>
<options>
<alt_platform>arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf</alt_platform>
<alt_platform>armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabihf</alt_platform>
<alt_platform>aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu</alt_platform>
</options>
</cc_config>


What's wrong? World community grid is marked as a linux/arm working project

Re: Pine64 boinc doesn't retrieve tasks

Try adding
<no_alt_platform>0</no_alt_platform>
to the <options> section; it looks as if your system is ignoring the <alt_platform> lines -- I presume the one showing up in your error message is the default platform name! (The BOINC site doesn't make it clear what the default for that option might be and I've not got the source code to look at...)

FWIW my only ARM system is a Raspberry Pi 4B (8GB) running a 64-bit kernel and 32-bit user-land (including, therefore, a 32-bit BOINC client and manager) so I've not seen this issue (and am turning over 9 or 10 OPN1 tasks a day), although I have added lines to allow for the possibility of 64-bit applications at some future point...

Hope your issue can be solved by something as simple as this!

Cheers - Al.
