XML Feeds Down?

EvilEls, Mon Jun 03 2013, 09:10AM

Hi guys!
A couple of days ago the XML feeds stopped to update.

For example, mine was last updated May 31:
http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_user.php?cpid=c6e2ed312da0d0e56c4e3d3eedd43ace

Is it just a flaw or do you have disabled the service?

Thanks and best regards,
Els


PS: The "Contact Us" form doesn't work. It complains about invalid email-addresses smile3

The XML feed is working as near as I can tell. The URL you posted has a last update time of June 4th.

I'll have to figure out what's up with the contact form. PHP 5.4 upgrade broke yet another item...

The feeds were getting abused and causing problems with the server. They have been restricted to the BOINC project servers only.

Hello! I am new to this website and just discovered why my XML query attempt did not work. Yes, it seems users are restricted and only the e107_plugins can be utilized.

I was attempting to access the XML as I was looking at why some of my RAC as displayed by my gridcoin wallet is different than what you show.
For example, this one is correct (at this posting time)

  • "Project" : "gpugrid",
    "CPID" : "ee4a19259edf11e9e90005773cb8ad16",
    "RAC" : 1896268.00000000,
    "Team" : "gridcoin",
    "CPID Link" : "http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/e107_plugins/boinc/get_user.php?cpid=ee4a19259edf11e9e90005773cb8ad16",
    "Debug Info" : "",
    "Project Settings Valid for Gridcoin" : true

My RAC is actually 1896268 for gridcoin so the above is correct. ie: if I execute the url the value is close to actual.

However, my Milkyway RAC is closer to 3,800,000 than just 150. The RAC value shown by the gridcoin wallet command "list cpids" is so far off as to be laughable.
  • Project" : "milkyway@home",
    "CPID" : "ee4a19259edf11e9e90005773cb8ad16",
    "RAC" : 150.00000000,
    "Team" : "gridcoin",
    "CPID Link" : "http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/e107_plugins/boinc/get_user.php?cpid=ee4a19259edf11e9e90005773cb8ad16",
    "Debug Info" : "",
    "Project Settings Valid for Gridcoin" : true


I was trying to replicate the calculation to find out where that 150 came from and avoid having to look at their source code

Temporary error? the RAC for that is showing much higher now.
