Upate: Service still fails to start but I just ran FAHClient manually again and it connected and is now processing a job apparently, so must have been a temporary glitch. Cores and GPUs at full throttle according to htop. Don't see anything indicating whether what it's doing is related to COVID-19, so blindly hoping it's helping with something, but I'll leave it on. (Says: "project 14307"??)

---- original post ------

I was just trying to get it running on Ubuntu 18.04 in response to this post but I'm just getting a lot of errors with not very useful error messages. Any ideas?

When I run FAHClient manually I get, 21:04:10:WARNING:WU01:FS01:Failed to get assignment from 'X.X.X.X:8080': No WUs available for this configuration

(I replaced the IP address with Xs)

When I try starting the service I get an error and journalctl -xe gives me, e.g., (unedited, it actually says "result is RESULT")
