Updated BOINC to 7.10.2 from the Berkeley site and it didn't make any difference in the connection problem. Still get AM reply parse error

I am getting this same error...but only on my Windows 7 (64-bit OS) machine. I do not get the error on Windows 10 or Mac OS.
Any help appreciated.

Hi Doneske -- I've gotten this same error -- but only on my Windows 7 64-bit OS machine (I don't get the error on Windows 10 or MacOS. Can you confirm what Operating System version you are using where you got this error?

Hi Doneske -- David Anderson made a fix which resolved this problem for me. Try it again and see if yours is fixed as well.

I cannot log into BOINC Manager even though I have an account and have logged into the web page. I have Windows 10 64 Bit BOINC version 7.10.2


After I did the following:

1. Opened BOINCMGR and selected Tools then Use Account Manager
2. Selected Science United from drop down
3. Entered required/requested information and clicked FINISH

I got the error "no account found" even though I am logged into the web page at https://scienceunited.org/

The log is as follows:

EDIT: I logged off the web page and stopped BOINC and tried again and BOINC tried to synchronize with Science United and after asking for user id and password it still could not find an account.

BUT looking at Boinc Manager it has put SETI and Cas@home with science united as the account.

Duplicate post

I was going to modify the last post I did above as it is working fine now and logs in and synchronizes.

Same issue, "AM reply parse error" when attempting to connect the account manager to the boinc-client. Using Ubuntu Server 18.04.2 LTS and boinc-client package version 7.14.2.

Any solution for this?

Disregard the above post. I submitted the issue on GitHub and David Anderson promptly fixed it. Thanks David!
