As title says SSL CERTIFICATE IS EXPIRED!

BOINC can't receive or send back completed work until it's RENEWED.

My Completed Android task won't upload. Have manually retried upload multiple times without success.

No surprise, Android message tab is completely useless in trying to figure out why won't upload.

Task 349901782

All other projects have no problems.


Edit FINALLY UPLOADED right after posting message.

Also those of us with Win7 pc's are out of luck due to an SSL error

What kind of SSL ERROR?

I have 2 Windows 7 PC'S currently attached and receiving and sending completed / valid work back.
As for the Project list, I believe you will have to manually download it (maybe from the boinc.berkeley.edu site???) then copy/paste into the BOINCData folder.

BOINC is supposed to check and automatically download a new list periodically but I have never had it work in the 20+ years on BOINC.

Why is asteroids@home no longer listed on BOINC. I tried to add to my new computer and it wasn't list.
I think that list is manually updated, you'll have to ask over in the Boinc forums and someone will tell the big guy in charge (David Anderson).

Project was re-added to the official BOINC list in last day or two.

Project was OFFLINE and INACTIVE for over a year.
When the maintainers of BOINC software code went to verify project status before code updating it was not to be found on the internet so it was deleted from BOINC's ACTIVE project list.

I've been receiving regular asteroid android tasks for months... Maybe if you check your task settings..?


Nothing wrong with the phone and my task settings it's set to use all applications.

Still waiting for reply from project admin.

Open Question is anyone receiving Android Tasks from Asteroids@home ?

Been so long I can't recall the last time I received any tasks on Android from this project.

Almost 8 weeks later I am still not receiving any work for Android on this project.
Admins care to supply me with an answer?

My Android phone is still not receiving any work from the project no matter how much it tries.

Never had any problem getting work until the server crash... Phone is able to contact server and ask for work but nothing is received.

Wonder how long it will take to get any reply from the project manager... Looking at various posts in project forum, it seems communication is severely lacking.

Nothing new at this project. Currently server status page shows no tasks available to send out, 123818 tasks out in the field being worked on.

Most likely there will be no new tasks generated to send out until that number gets a lot closer to zero.

If the app_info.xml is used by NativeBOINC then use it. I had to change the class plan due to Android 5 but it seems that NativeBOINC doesn't send the android version. I didn't test it, I am using BOINC official now but if it is the problem, then developers of NativeBOINC should change it so that NativeBOINC can report the OS version.


NativeBoinc is NO LONGER being "developed" as the original programmer is "too busy with other things"...

*edit* and as far as I know, NativeBoinc DOES NOT RUN ON Android 5 (which use PIE Run-Times) or above.

Well, I DETACHED my NEXUS7 earlier today, Waited a few minutes, Shut down BOINC, Rebooted the tablet, suspended all tasks from OTHER projects, let it "idle" a few minutes, Resumed BOINC (but not the projects with active tasks) and REATTACHED it to this project... It appears to have re-downloaded the project software but NOT ANY TASKS....

STILL NOT SURE WHAT IS UP WITH THIS PROJECT AND HOW TO GET TASKS. Server Status is always showing work is available.... strange.

Same problem for my 17 Android devices. But analyzing some tasks for my Windows PCs I detected that some wingmen got tasks for their Androids. As they use the stock BOINC client and I use nativeBOINC, the question is: Has nativeBOINC client become incompatible with Asteroids@home?


My lone Android device also running NativeBoinc has not been able to get work in quite a while either... It always seems to be in a project induced 24-hour backoff period when I check its status.

I might try detaching it from project and then re-adding project later today to see if that helps any.
