BOINC on ARM

[jarek]

Hello,

sorry troubling you; I found this address in /etc/init.d/boinc-client.
I did at first try to ask on Boinc message boards to no avail (and did
read Boinc User Manual).

I wanted to run some BOINC project on my mostly idle router Turris
Omnia (CPU: Marvell Armada 385, dual-core 1.6 GHz; open source Turris
OS, based on OpenWrt - for more see
https://doc.turris.cz/doc/_media/omnia/omnia_datasheet_1gb_rgb.pdf).

I installed Ubuntu Xenial in container and BOINC there. SFSG.

Because I encountered repeated errors "Authorization failure: -155"
issuing many boinccmd commands, I removed BOINC installation from the
container and reinstalled it. But this error persisted even after
purging and reinstalling BOINC.

In next attempt (after purging BOINC from container and even removing
/var/lib/boinc-client directory, doing apt-get autoremove, apt-get
autoclean and reinstalling BOINC in Ubuntu container) first boinccmd
was OK:

boinccmd --lookup_account https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/ `mail` `password`

but next commands ended again with the same error:

boinccmd --project_attach https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/ `account`
Authorization failure: -155
boinccmd --get_state
Authorization failure: -155

Moreover, in /var/log/boincerr.log there are, after 1st line:

dir_open: Could not open directory ‘slots’ from ‘/var/lib/boinc-client’.

repeated (ad libitum) following lines:

dir_open: Could not open directory ‘/dev/input’ from ‘/var/lib/boinc-client’.
dir_open: Could not open directory ‘/dev/input/mice’ from
‘/var/lib/boinc-client’.

Could anybody please advice?

Best regards,
Jaromir Pavlinec
