The 5.2.x versions create a gui_rpc_auth.cfg file if one does not exist. This stores a password for accessing the daemon. That may be getting in the way.

I really advise trying the 5.2.13 version again though, 4.45 has some problems with CPDN.

OK I reinstalled Boinc 5.2.13 and tried to attach to CPDN I enter the URL and then select existing account and enter my email address and password. A few minutes later it comes back Failed to attach to project. The gui_rpc_auth.cfg file exists in my boinc directory. What should be in it? What should I try next?
