I had two Macs running Asteroids@home under BOINC. One is running macOS Tahoe 26.0, the other is running macOS Catalina 10.15.7. Asteroids@home is working fine on macOS Tahoe 26.0, but not on macOS Catalina 10.15.7. I tried resetting the project, that didn't work. Tried to remove and reinstall, but I cannot add it back. I get the error messages I posted in my last post, Message 9172.

My Windows systems are receiving and completing tasks is the "certificate" issue only Linux related ?

Yes. Linux and Mac.

So many of these projects rely on volunteers to keep going. I applaud them. My working life in IT ran for over 40 years, so I fully understand that there are times when nothing works as expected. An IBM Systems Engineer once gave our department a document titled, "The 10 Commandments of Computer Programmers". Of course, it could have been for any business. One of my favorites went something like this: "When all about thee whirleth and screameth and seemeth to fall apart, say to thyself, 'This too, shall pass!'" Kudos to these volunteers and all who support these projects!

My problem on Windows 10 21H1 was due to using old BOINC 7.16.20 or similar, which uses local ca-bundle.crt and even with updated file, no go. New BOINC version, which uses Windows as source for certificates, solves issue. Been that way since 7.18 or so. Solves issue, until, Windows Trusted Root Certification Authorities store need update via sst import from Windows 11 machine.
