[SOLVED]Status of BOINC

Any particular reason boinc-nox 7.2.42-1 in the Official repositories doesn't install boincmgr GUI manager as described in BOINC wiki?
Any particular reason boinc-git in AUR (orphan) doesn't compile?
Has BOINC fallen out of favor?
Was thinking of giving it a try...

It looks like BOINC communicates over http and https, so firewalls shouldn't be a problem if you are running the daemon and the GUI on the same computer. The client is working for me.
Solved, permissions problem on /var/lib/boinc/gui_rpc_auth.cfg

Used chmod 644 vice chmod 640 as from https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/BOINC
BTW Switching to "Advanced" in boincmgr shows a status at the bottom of the window which gave me the clue.
Thanks ids1024 for the help (and encouragement)

[SOLVED] status of archlinuxfr repository

a few days ago, the archlinuxfr repo at http://repo.archlinux.fr went down and has not come back.
i've now switched to http://afur.archlinux.fr/pkg - which is working, but slow.
i've tried searching for more info, but have drawn a complete blank. does anyone know anything more about this?

How can a question marked as "solved" be restored to unsolved status?

How do you remove the “This solved my question” status icon if the answer turns out to be wrong?
Variations of this question can be found in a few discussion threads in the Apple Support Community. I found one very similar question marked as “This solved my question.” Unfortunately the answer was, “It can't be changed.” I have reasons for trying to, at least, get a more definitive answer.
A primary purpose of these discussions is to resolve issues. It is very frustrating to read through long threads that claim to have an answer, only to find that the question was mistakenly marked “solved.” I spent over an hour on a thread that was marked as resolved. The member that made the mistake wanted to remove the “solved” status--even asked for help several times. I finished the thread just in case either issue was resolved. No, neither issue was resolved.
May someone, Apple if necessary, explain how to revert the “solved” status or help fix the problem? If it is a known issue with no workaround, it would be very helpful to have an explanation. Accordingly, are there plans to fix this problem, and a rough idea when? This could be a “This solved my question” hallmark worth celebrating!
Caution: This discussion or parts of it may be revised or deleted while I attempt to find a solution or workaround. Once I've given up or the issue is resolved, I will indicate so, even if it requires a repost. Relevant contributions will be indicated either way.

leonieDF and seventy one pointed out, (paraphrasing) all posts can be helpful in some way, even if the original owner of the discussion didn't get their question resolved.
Maybe if I keep using this tool I'll change my mind, but most of the time I'd rather save time getting something solved than not.
If anyone believes there are legitimate reasons owners and participants of a discussion would benefit from the ability of the owner to reset the solved status, you're welcome to chime in.
These excerpts from my original post express why I think a change is needed:
Stiltskin!: “The member that made the mistake wanted to remove the “solved” status--even asked for help several times. I finished the thread just in case either issue was resolved. No, neither issue was resolved.”
Stiltskin!: “I didn't find any entry in that thread with an answer to revert the icon. So I got the idea it wasn't common knowledge because so many posters asked the owner to fix it even though the owner kept asking how to do it.”
A big part of why I started this discussion is because I noticed others (and myself) expressed interest in this feature (owner ability to reset a discussion's solved status). If anyone want's to respond to that, please do.
Nobody's brought it up but my discussion's header question doesn't express what I'm talking about now. I would change it if I could. I'd encourage future contributors (if any) to read through the explanation of my question in the first post to understand my perspective beyond "How can a question marked as 'solved' be restored to unsolved status?"
Thank you all for your input!

Grouped and non-grouped SELECT in one query: help!

look first at: Wrong result when I use CASE on this forum. Here I wanted to get the user who created and the user who solved a problem (Lets call it Validation Error from now on (VE)).
The thing is: I already have a query who returns me lots of information about a VE.
The query in the previous thread returned me additional info about that VE (that is the creating_user and the solving_user). The 1st query is no group select, but the second is! Still, I need to combine those two in one query.
1st query:
select ve.seq,
 max((case vah.action when 'C' then vah.ur_code else null end)) created,
 max((case vah.action when 'S' then vah.ur_code else null end)) solved
from validation_errors ve
left outer join ver_action_histories vah
on (ve.seq = vah.ver_seq AND ve.log_date = vah.ver_log_date)
where ve.seq = 12860687
group by ve.seq;Result:
seq | created | solved
12860687 Bob Bobdont mind the "where"-clause, it is just to make the query go faster
what I do is: I join the VE with the ver_action_histories table which contains the users and what action they performed on a VE.
Now I just want to add that information to the results of an other query which also returns lots of information about a VE.
2nd query:
select ve.seq "VE seq", mh.seq "Counter seq",
 ve.log_date, ve.solve_date, ve.solved Status, ve.failure_code, ve.mde_code,
 mh.meter_type,
 iv.mr_type, iv.mr_reason,
 ih.mmr_seq
from validation_errors ve
inner join meter_histories mh
on (ve.mhy_seq = mh.seq)
left outer join index_values iv
on (ve.mhy_seq = iv.mhy_seq AND ve.log_date =iv.timestamp)
left outer join index_histories ih
on (ve.mhy_seq = ih.ive_mhy_seq)
where ve.seq = 8653936
and sysdate >= mh.start_date
and sysdate < mh.end_date;dont mind the "where" and "and"-clauses ... I hope the result of this query will simplify things ...
Result:
seq | counter seq | log_date | solved_date | status | failure_code | ...
12860687 4568 1-jan-06 2-jan-06 Solved ABCNow the actual question: Is it possible to combine those queries in one query? I just want the results of the first query (creating_user and solving_user) to be added as columns to the second result. Performance is very important. Please tell me that its possible?
Wanted Result:
seq | counter seq | log_date | solved_date | status | failure_code | created | solved | ...
12860687 4568 1-jan-06 2-jan-06 Solved ABC Bob BobIf anything I explained is unclear, please tell so I can try to explain it in an easier way.

Try an in line view:
select *
from
( <your first query goes here > ) a
, ( <your second query goes here > ) b
where a.seq = b.seq

Update OS 10.5.5: no more internet connection after update to 10.5.5

Since updating to 10.5.5 yesterday, I can not connect to the internet nor email anymore.
My Time Capsule (Airport) is working fine because I can connect using my iPod Touch that is also using it.
By the way, I've sent this message using the Explorer browser in Windows XP, running on the SAME Mac with Parallels emulation, which is working fine. Strange, hm?
I suspect the bug is in the update. Now I wonder how we are going to do Software Update without internet connection.
Anybody have the same experience?

This thread caught my eye, because I have spent a lot of time trying to help people with internet problems... and the solved status made me curious! There seems to be a few people with the DNS changer trojan horse at the moment..
I wonder how it got there.
Trojan Horses are usually installed when you agree to provide your admin credentials to install some software (whilst visiting a website).
Installing software from the net that you have not explicitly verified first (through mac forums) is generally a bad idea. Once you have given a process your admin credentials, it can do whatever it wants to your system.
This is also a reason why it is a bad idea to run your regular usage as an Admin user. It is possible to install software as an Admin user without entering any username/password - and it can easily give itself root access to your computer.
Cheers,
Rodney

SSL errors connecting to secure sites

<blockquote>Locking thread. 
Please continue in your previous thread: [[/questions/891765]]</blockquote>
I had earlier posted a query on a problem connecting to https sites. refreshing the network card parameters seems to have solved the problem.
But again the problem has resurfaced and I am getting frequent error " SSL received a record with an incorrect Message Authentication Code.
(Error code: ssl_error_bad_mac_read) "
It is becoming very irritating since it is preventing me to access most of the https site including gmail. The most frustrating part is that the occurrence is not predictable. When the error comes and I click ok, the page is resubmitted and many of the times the page is loaded properly. The problem again occurs when I want to proceed to the next page.
Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

I've removed the solved status from this thread as you still seem to have this problem.
Are you using a direct connection or a proxy? 
Do you have a router or security software (firewall) that might cause this problem? 
Do you have problems with other secure https connections?

Wireless Connectivity can't be maintained for HP2540 Printer

Printer worked fine using my own home router for 2 years. HP2540 printer - firmware rev CP1FN1333AR. Win 8.1 OS Recently switched to service where ISP provides router and printer will not maintain connectivity beyond a single print job. Have 1) reset printer and router via power downs - several times 2) confirmed latest HP printer updates are on printer, 3) run HP Scan Doctor s/w and connected via USB cable to load new network settings 4) 'uninstalled' and resinstalled printer on PC and network 5) successfully printed HP Network Config Page following a wireless install. Connectivity then drops and Scan Doctor indicates 'no connnected printer' and refers back to USB and wireless install routines, neither of which has fixed problem. All net settings (IP Addresses for printer, gateway etc look OK, SSID matches net name, sig strength is good, channel 11 assigned. Bottom of Gen'l Information section of HP Net Config page indicates Internet 'Not Connected' and has a warning 'Web Services require the printer to have a connection with Internet connectivity'. I'm only trying to print local PC generated docs however. Have gone through most of the HP section at URL - http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02790693 for this printer, much of which is noted above. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your suggestion - I had not changed channels as HP Net config printout had indicated signal quality as '5' on a scale of 1-5. Ran a built-in Wi-Fi modem test which indicated Channel 11 (the one in use) rated 88 (100 max) on the self test, but best channel was 2 (at 94 rating). Changed to Channel 2 and dedicated an IP address (virtually the only other step I had not completed in the HP procedure) while I was in the router config section. Turned off printer and when it indicated a wireless channel had been acquired, ran HP Scan Doctor again, and rec'd 'no connected printer' msg yet again. Ran the 'advanced' Scan Doctor retry option at that point and rec'd diagostic response that 'One Note' was my selected default printer (which did not square with Control Panel indication that my HP2540 was the default. Scan Doctor offered to enable my HP2540 as the default printer and things now appaer to be working. Not sure just which of these items fixed my problem, but you deserve the credit for identifying something that I had not considered, and thus leading to the solution (either directly or indirectly). My thanks for your assistance and I will provide 'thumbs up' and 'solved' status to your post.

Iwork's numbers hogging cpu

I have a Numbers file that keeps track of insurance payouts. It's absolutely bare bones: one font, no graphics.
Suddenly, I find that when I open the file, my MacBook Pro starts becoming extremely warm and sets off the internal fan. Nothing else is running. It gets especially hot if I magnify the sheet using Cmd - >.
Anybody have a clue about what's going on?

Please Remove Mysterious, False "Hijacked" Ratings: Investigation Needed

Dear Hosts: I need your help, please. I refer to my very recent postings at the following link:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=455265&tstart=0
I can assure you that I never checked "Solved" next to the postings of Studio X. I was shocked when I saw that. My issue was completely solved by Zapcrafter and slightcomedy and I marked their posts with "Solved". I never considered Studio X's comments to solve my problem. If you read the posts, you will see that what he has contributed did not help me. I do not reward sarcasm and condescension with points! Do you really think anyone would mark, "You do this for a living?" as solved? Is this how he climbs the ladder of success - by marking his replies as "Solved"? I did not mark any of his posted replies as "Solved". So, please remove them. He should not get points for insulting me; plus, he was not the smart one who gave me my solution! This is outrageous.

Dear Peggy: Greetings. Thank you for your fast and helpful reply. Since slightcomedy replied first correctly, I gave the "Solved" status to her (or him). However, I think I see now what happened: "Solved" appears next to many names until one selects the one, definite, final, best answer. I could swear that I had checked that "Solved" box before...I guess I was mixed up and my paranoia took over. I had thought that "Answered" and "Solved" were the same thing...too may all-nighters lately, and I am obviously so new here. Thanks a lot for your explanation. Actually, this is a "slightcomedy" of errors...

Earphones don't work with ibook - please help

Hi. Had my ibook for a few months and absolutely love it. The thing is, when i plus the earphones in the listen to music, the sound only comes out in the left ear of the earphones. I tried about three different pairs to make sure!
Is this something to do with my settings or a fault I will need to get repaired through applecare?
thanks if anyone can help

Hi ilovemyiBook!, I'm glad you got your issue worked out.
Now, maybe in exchange for Duane taking the time to help you, you may take the time to grant his/her post a "Solved" status, so the next users that have this problems know for sure this solved your problem, also that helps the users of this fora know which posts come from more respectable people.
Good luck and continue enjoying your iBook!

Problem that really should be addressed.

The problem to which I refer are the extremely long threads, that contain useful advice, but are extremely difficult to sort through because of their sheer length. Consider for example, http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1390673&tstart=0
This thread is forbidding. Someone looking for a solution to this problem will not have an easy time finding a solution, or even figuring out if a solution exists. There seems to be a real problem, reported by a number of people, occurring over a period of weeks. And, to judge by the number views, apparently one of interest to many many people.
And this is not the only such thread.
Can something be done to make it easier to work through these lengthy threads?

These super-long threads tend to stick out and give people the impression that there is some sort of inherent bug that can only be complained about and never fixed.
sometimes there is...
some posts are for problems that simply don't have a resolution, or really are inherent faults/bugs that apple needs to fix...
how about the original tibook firewire port failure was due to the design, the 'fix' was apple changing the design in later models, but if your port blew there was no fix, that was a long thread because lots of people had their fw port blow
or the lack of gapless playback on the ipod, remember the years of endless nonsense from people claiming it wasn't possible to do it with mp3? then finaly apple fixed it
or the intermittent missing keystroke that particularly affected al powerbooks, apple introduced this bug in 10.4.3, apple still hasn't fixed this
imho one long thread is better than hundreds of separate posts about the same topic
if a user can't find the answer, they can just post a new query - which is what they'd end up doing if threads were locked
if ops could be relied on to correctly mark the post that resolves an issue, then the default view could be to show the full message body only of the resolving post, with other posts in the thread showing only the first line
or simply lock the thread as soon as they mark it solved - but allow the op to reverse the solved status if it turns out to be wrong
but that's wishful thinking, most ops don't mark posts that resolve issues
