After replacing -add_project as stated on your web site
with -attach_project I was able to start cpdn on my dual Xeon machines. On one dual-Opteron the job crashes immediately after finishing the download with code 1.

The machine runs SuSE-Linux Enterprise Server for AMD64 and has 8GB of RAM, so cpdn should run without problem.
This setup runs setathome and other 32bit-applications
without problem, therefore the 64bit architecture should not be the problem:

Hi, I looked up this result and it appears that there is a problem with your GLIBC libraries not installed or compatible with our libraries?


hadsm3_4.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.3' not found (required by hadsm3_4.02_i686-pc-linux-gnu)

You were right, the problem disappeared after installing the machine using SuSE
Linux 9.1 for AMD64. There was a problem with the libraries of the SuSE Linux
Enterprise Server for AMD64 V8.

The beta job is running now and currently in the year 1821. Thanks for looking into
the problem, the error message was not very specific ;-) !

OK, I'd better add this to our "Software Compatibility" for Linux, i.e. you need GLIBC_2.3

I joined the project a couple of days ago, however I saw only today that all my workunits produced errors...
My machine runs SuSe 8.1 and have only GLIBC_2.2, is there any chance to get the client to work under these conditions.
Upgrading to SuSe 9.x is not an alternative and since I already made the mistake trying to upgrade to GLIBC_2.3 (segmentation fault every two mouse clicks) I would like not to change anything in my base system.

If there is no chance to bring it to work, how can I delete my account?

the new 4.04 linux version works with GLIBC 2.2, problem solved, started crunching...

Thanks
