[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hello,

>sorry troubling you; I found this address in /etc/init.d/boinc-client.


ack
>I installed Ubuntu Xenial in container and BOINC there. SFSG.
>Because I encountered repeated errors "Authorization failure: -155"
>issuing many boinccmd commands, I removed BOINC installation from the

>In next attempt (after purging BOINC from container and even removing
>/var/lib/boinc-client directory, doing apt-get autoremove, apt-get
>autoclean and reinstalling BOINC in Ubuntu container) first boinccmd

>boinccmd --lookup_account https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/ `mail` `password`

>but next commands ended again with the same error:
>boinccmd --project_attach https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/ `account`
>Authorization failure: -155
>boinccmd --get_state
>Authorization failure: -155

>Moreover, in /var/log/boincerr.log there are, after 1st line:

>Could anybody please advice?

lease try boinc from bionic (18.04 devel), or from my ppa:
I'm uploading 7.8.4 in some minutes

also, please provide output of
systemctl status boinc-client
