Hello,
I have some problemen with reading out the out-files.
On both Linux and Windows i get this log:

The first error would seem to be key here:
"failed to create shared mem segment"

So the program starts running, but is not allowed to get memory to do work. This sounds like a security issue with the machine BOINC is installed on. You will have to carefully study the user that is running BOINC, and the authorities it has.

If the machine was working ok previously under the same setup, the please locate the version number and post a link to the result in the thread for that version on the Number Crunching board.

BOINC should work NOT running as root. I think you need to configure more shared memory on your Linux system.
