unable to download linux agent twice!

I downloaded the linux agent and followed the instructions and tried to execute it but recieved a message that it couldn't read from stdin. So I removed the script and went to go download it again from the site, thinking it was corrupted. Except now the site won't let me download it again.. I am always brought back to the same page where it shows me the account key and instructions..

What does one do in such a situation?

Re: unable to download linux agent twice!

I don't know why you can't download the boinc agent again. But you can try to download it from
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php
(I can download boinc twice from the wcg pages)

Re: unable to download linux agent twice!

areplogle,

Please try the following:

Log into the computer you want to install BOINC on.
Change to the directory that you want to install it in.
Run the following command: wget http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/boinc_5.2.6_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh
Then run: chmod 700 boinc_5.2.6_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh
Then run: ./boinc_5.2.6_i686-pc-linux-gnu.sh

let us know what happens. If you encounter errors, then can you cut and paste what you were doing into this thread?

thanks,
Kevin

Pconfig / knreed,

Thank you much =]

As it happened, the window for the download actually did popup but it popped up behind my main browser for some reason. In any case.. user error =]

Got a bunch of servers cranking away now =]
