Message 57507 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 16:23:20 UTC

Does anyone else have a problem accessing the server? I get the following messages:

Fetching schedule list
Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
Internet access ok - project servers may be temporarily down

This has been going on for about a week. Updating or Resetting the project generates the same message. Other projects seem to be fine.

I did change the certificate file yesterday, but that does not seem to have made a difference.

Running Win10Pro with a Nvidia 2060 GPU. The OS Version is 10.0.19043 Build 19043 and the GPU Driver is 30.0.14.7196

The last WU I received was Sept 29.

Did the error message go away when you restarted Boinc?

I just got three of 2.18 tasks in a few miinutes ago I actually saw the server status go from 64 down to 61. I had checked status before and after allowing new work.

Not sure where or if you got the corrected file or maybe it was put in the wrong place.

browse to \Program Files\Boinc and look at ca-bundle.crt
it should have a date from october something like this

10/03/2021 12:24 PM 225,584 ca-bundle.crt

If not october then you probably still have the file with the expired certificate

Open the file with notepad and search for the phrase
DST Root CA X3

If there then select that certificate and delete it.
save the file and restart boinc.

You state you are still getting the error message

I assumed you meant the error message about the expired certificate

What error message did you mean?

Message 57515 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 18:01:02 UTC - in response to Message 57507.

This is the error message I am referring to:



Fetching schedule list
Project communication failed: attempting access to reference site
Internet access ok - project servers may be temporarily down



I started getting the messages about a week ago. Updating the ca-bundle.crt file, and restarting BONIC or the PC, does not fix this issue.

You've got a cache somewhere fouling things up.

Updating ca-bundle.crt should do it - the symptoms and the timing are right for the certificate expiry problem.

Can you verify that you have exactly the right file, and that you've put it in exactly the right place? Where did you get the file from? It should have a timestamp of 30 September 2021 or later.

Message 57518 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 18:51:47 UTC - in response to Message 57517.

I used these links to get the new ca-bundle.crt file:

https://www.gpugrid.net/forum_thread.php?id=5256&nowrap=true#57440

When I open the file, using notepad, I can see the DST Root CA X3 section has been deleted.

The new/updated ca-bundle.crt file is in the same folder as the previous ca-bundle.crt file. I renamed the old ca-bundle.crt file .old

All that should have worked. Not sure what the problem is since a reboot should have worked.

The reference site is either Google or Ibm and they responded according to that message

All I can suggest is

1. Try pinging the project

C:\Users\josep>ping www.gpugrid.net

Pinging www.gpugrid.net [84.89.134.145] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 84.89.134.145: bytes=32 time=170ms TTL=44
Reply from 84.89.134.145: bytes=32 time=170ms TTL=44

Reply from 84.89.134.145: bytes=32 time=170ms TTL=44


2. Look in the windows 10 event viewer (system) for unusual errors such as "schannel" or anything related to ssl.

Sorry

Message 57521 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 19:24:55 UTC - in response to Message 57518.

That's strange - it might be something else.

The acid test: go to BOINC Manager, Advanced view.
Select Options menu, click 'Event Log Options...'
On the form that opens, tick the box labelled http_debug (don't change any others)
Click Save.

Go to the projects tab. Highlight GPUGrid, click Update once.

Wait no more than about 5 seconds, go back to the Event Log Options menu, remove the http_debug tick, save.

Then look at the event log itself. http_debug puts out a lot of detail - depending on your computer experience, it may or may not mean anything to you. See if you can pick out any references to certificates and expiry.

If not, select and copy the whole segment from 'Starting scheduler request' to 'Scheduler request completed' (or failed - depending what happened). Post the whole thing here, and we'll go through it for you.

Message 57522 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 20:00:26 UTC - in response to Message 57521.

I am not computer literate enough to understand most of what is going on here, but I do see a SSL certificate problem and Peer certificate problem.

Should I delete the old ca-bundle.crt file?. Any other suggestions?

I don't know how to post screenshots apparently, but pinging www.gpugrid.net resulted in 4 packets being sent and four packets received. The Event Viewer (System) only showed Information entries, no Errors.

I suspect you have things in the wrong place or I dont understand the listing


10/6/2021 3:54:11 PM | GPUGRID | [http] [ID#1] Info: CAfile: D:\Program Files\ca-bundle.crt


that file should be in \Program Files\Boinc

next to the other executables

You should have at d:\Program Files\boinc
or at
c:\Program Files\boinc

the following
ca-bundle.crt
and ca-bundle.crt_old

if I understand correctly

Boinc is clearly getting the wrong ca-bundle as your script is exactly what I would see with the wrong bundle

I would delete the old file. BOINC may still be caching it.

Not sure why it is showing that. The file is in D:\Program Files\BONIC

Supposedly the system rebooted.

Possibly, if the file is missing, a windows path search may find a zillion ca-bundles and pick the first one!

Don't think that is correct spelling

Note that if you use notepad to save "ca-bundle.crt" you might unwittingly end up with "ca-bundle.txt" which won't work. Been there done that myself

Message 57529 - Posted: 6 Oct 2021 | 21:10:49 UTC - in response to Message 57528.

LHC, WCG, Milky Way, Einstein, Cosmology, Rosetta are working fine.

GPUGrid and CPDN seem to be having the same issue.

Asteroids and Universe are not working, but I think they are both unrelated server issues.

I deleted the old ca-bundle.crt files and the problem still exists.

Regarding saving the ca-bundle.crt file in notepad, which encoding should be used?

Thanks for everyone's help!

They do not check stuff like this project does or so I have read.

I assume you downloaded the correct file as listed by Keith.
From reading your listing, that file was put at d:\Program Files\
it should have been put at d:\Program Files\boinc

just move that file into the proper folder and restart boinc

[edit]
From the command prompt do a file compare to verify the missing old cert

fc ca-bundle.crt ca-bundle.crt_old

There's a line

10/6/2021 3:54:11 PM | | [http] [ID#0] Info: SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired

which conforms that BOINC (note spelling) is still using the old ca-bundle.crt file. I don't buy the 'cached' explanation: the 'path' explanation is possible, but unlikely.

Yes they do, but they use certificates from a different supplier - and they're still working.

But the file location definitely needs sorting out.

Problem resolved.

I had replaced the ca-bundle.crt file in D:\Program Files\BOINC, but I missed replacing it in D:\Program Files

After replacing ca-bundle.crt, in D:\Program Files, everything is fine now.

Apologies for messing this up and thanks for the help.
