Hi
I've installed boinc using ports and attached the project but I get the following messages when trying to fetch work : 2006-08-18 14:41:30 [World Community Grid] Sending scheduler request to https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc/wcg_cgi/fcgi 2006-08-18 14:41:30 [World Community Grid] Reason: Requested by user 2006-08-18 14:41:30 [World Community Grid] Requesting 34560 seconds of new work 2006-08-18 14:41:40 [World Community Grid] Scheduler request succeeded 2006-08-18 14:41:40 [World Community Grid] Message from server: platform 'i386-portbld-freebsd' not found Is there something that WCG needs to do to enable 'i386-portbld-freebsd' users ? Thanks |

Unfortunately this is not a solution to your problem.
If I could piggyback on it, though, having exactly the same problem with a different platform: 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [---] Starting BOINC client version 4.66 for powerpc-ibm-aix5.2.0.0 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/] Using your default project prefs 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/] Host ID not assigned yet 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [---] No general preferences found - using BOINC defaults 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [---] Insufficient work; requesting more 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/] Requesting 8640.00 seconds of work 2006-08-18 13:33:55 [http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/] Sending request to scheduler: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc/wcg_cgi/fcgi 2006-08-18 13:33:56 [http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/] Scheduler RPC to http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc/wcg_cgi/fcgi succeeded 2006-08-18 13:33:56 [World Community Grid] Message from server: platform 'powerpc-ibm-aix5.2.0.0' not found 2006-08-18 13:33:56 [World Community Grid] Using your default project prefs 2006-08-18 13:33:56 [World Community Grid] Deferring communication with project for 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds 2006-08-18 13:33:56 [World Community Grid] Deferring communication with project for 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds Anyone know whether there's anything to do to fix this?

Hello,
Both of you are requesting work for platforms that we do not support. The current OS's are linux, Windows, and Mac OS. Also, we only allow agents of 5.x I'm not sure if others have been able to recompile a freeBSD version of BOINC to simulate linux or not but that may be a path to look at. -Uplinger |

BOINC works with the Linux emulation on FreeBSD, but I am not shure if the WCG app will work correctly. But you could try it. Btw. SETI, SIMAP and Einstein has native FreeBSD binaries in the moment. |
