Problem with BOINC in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic

Sending scheduler request: Project initialization.  Requesting 1 seconds of work, reporting 0 completed tasks
Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
Scheduler request failed: Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates
Internet access OK – project servers may be temporarily down.

This error messages appeared when my world community grid project was trying to connect to the server after I installed Ubuntu 9.10.
According to this forum, they suggest replacing a new file called “ca-bundle.crt” in

/var/lib/boinc-client/

with this new one.

Just that. It works for me :) .

  1. Thx for the tips !!!

  2. Got a problem here :

    I’m told that I don’t have the permission to suppress the file. :/

    Any help ?

  3. I think you need a root permission.
    In the terminal, type

    sudo nautilus

    to bring up nautilus as root and then replace the file. :)

  4. thank you, now boinc is working fine with Ubuntu 9.10.
