HELLO
ACCOUNT MANAGER FOR GRID REPUBLIC NOT RUNNING PROPERLY EVEN CONNECT ON DIFFERENT DEVICES. I CAN'T SYNC WELL.
FAIL TO CONNECT, TRY LATER <--- THIS IS THE ERROR MESSAGE
Hello,
I've the same problem. I don't find soluce for that.
Hi,
Following the problem of connection of the manager to Grid Republic in BOINC and after careful consideration, I think that the impossibility to connect probably comes from the fact that the https certificate of the site is not valid since the end of December 2021.
Hi, I have the same problem.
I see no answers to this issue.
I will have to find another account manager.
Sorry
I've sent a message by "contact us" form this week.
The message was :
"I've a problem with to connect the manager Grid Republic in BOINC. I've not acces to the authentification form and I've been the message "FAIL TO CONNECT, TRY LATER".The GR web site can be joined with http and https protocols. However and after careful consideration, I'm thinking that the impossibility to connect probably comed from the fact that the https certificate of the site isn't valid since the 2021 December 4th. BOINC application want join to the manager Grid Republic server with https protocol. It's my deduction after see the information link when I've chose GR manager in BOINC.I'll hope that I've been clearely in my explainations. Thanks"

I don't have reply actualy.
At today, I don't have reply.
After looking the GR connection form in BOINC, I seeing that the protocol is in https. I've replace https by http protocol in the url adress.
The connection to GR manager was success !
Thank you for posting your solution, Kris!
The HTTPS certificate had failed to auto renew due to a package / configuration issue with certbot on the server. This has been fixed, so HTTPS should work again.
That being said, there have been problems in the BOINC community with clients being unable to connect to project servers that use Let's Encrypt certificates because of a bug in the version of OpenSSL that was used in many client software releases. If that is the case with GridRepublic, a different certificate will have to be used (or install the latest BOINC client, as that included a workaround for this particular issue).
