I'm using GPRS/UMTS Internet connection and set BOINC to skip image verification

Docking obviously ignores this setting, so every download fails!

Docking will be our Project of the month, would be great to have this fixed quickly! Or is there another reason??

Cheers!

Hi [B^S] BOINC-SG,

I have a few questions: The other projects do skip the image verification?? I wonder if it is a problem of the client or indeed it is our project?

We'll check this out, during the day.

Regards

Hi Trilce,

on the client it does work with other projects like Spinhenge for example.

I'm just checking it on my notebook now, will see if it works - takes some time with GPRS...

If I could switch Image compression off for my GPRS/UMTS Modem, I'd do it, but it doesnt work, unfortunately.

EDIT: Doesnt work on my notebook either. Same error! :(

Hi,

Have you tried to set up the preferences for Docking@Home in Advances -> Preferences -> Network usage? There you can select "Skip Image File Verification".

Please keep us posted.

Thanks,

Michela

Yes, I have done this, otherwise it wouldnt work with other projects too.

You need to somehow tell Docking not to check checksum of image files, it doesnt matter anyway, its just pictures. ;) GPRS/UMTS connections compress pictures server side to decrease bandwidth. You can still watch those pictures, but in less quality.

You could also change file extension for images, so they wont be recognized as pictures.

Anyway, there must be a setting in the BOINC software.

Thanx for your help!

Cheers!

Just an update: I managed to get it working, but the problem isnt solved.

On my desktop computer I dont need the GRPS-UMTS internet anymore, since I'm on DSL since Oct. 1st

So I could connect my Notebook via WLAN to my DSL and downloaded all necessary files for the app to run. As long as you dont change/update the images, it'll work @ work, where I need to use the GPRS/UMTS connection.

Cheers!

We have the same issue reported in our team forum.

According to the report by [B^S] BOINC-SG, we will try if the workaround does it. I stored the image files into an archive and let the (correctly sized) images unpack into the project directory. Let's see if it will work for our members who can not attach to the project because of the image downsampling.
