I tried compiling it, but it did not work…

INCLUDES= -I. -I$(BOINC_BUILD) \
-I$(BOINC_BUILD)/api \
-I$(BOINC_BUILD)/lib \
-I$(BOINC_BUILD)/db \
-I$(BOINC_BUILD)/sched \

LIBS= -lm $(LIBDIRS) -lsched -lmysqlclient -lboinc_api -lboinc -lz

The error message I am getting is the following:

I tried under different platforms (Kubuntu-32bit/64bit)

The version of BOINC is 6.11.1
The version of MySQL is mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.41, for debian-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 6.1

I have been running BOINC successfully for 2 or 3 years. I was notified that I should upgrade to BOINC 6.10.18 64-bit. I downloaded the upgrade without any problem, but when I try to install it I receive the message:
“The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable”. The message indicates that the installation package cannot find BOINC.msi. BOINC.msi is NOT included in the download. I did find an instance of BOINC.msi in an old folder and pointed the installer to that file, but that did not help.
I have been running BOINC on Windows Vista Home Premiun 64-bit and BOINC was working very well. I do connect my system to the internet through a router but there is no actual local network involved.
Unfortunately, the attempted install had destroyed my previous version of BOINC so I can not run BOINC at all at this time
If you will send me your email address, I can sent you an image of the actual error message.

Can you help?

Thanks,
John Neff
