After a little searching, it seems xpcproxy is possibly both a part of macOS security and a bit of adware installed in multiple browsers.

Is the client log.txt empty?

Are you using http/https proxies?

Please read the the guide linked to on the download page.

Use https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/

Maybe job was disabled.
Try
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.foldingathome.fahclient.plist

Maybe look in Console app for errors about launchd and or fah.

The browser check is removed from the latest beta installer. But if install finished, it wasn’t that.

In Terminal, try
fah-client —info
That’s two dashes.

In Activity Monitor, you need to select all processes in the menu somewhere.

Do you have a config.xml? Syntax errors in that file can cause the client to crash.

You need to enter your passkey in the web app. config.xml is only used for first run values for anything exposed in web control.

If you’re using 8.4.9, you will not get account setting changes in the client until you restart the client.

Safari works fine when logged in for clients linked to the account.

But it cannot direct connect to the local client.
Which matters when that client is yet not linked.

You cannot use Safari.
There is a readme in the installer that lists browsers that work.

You can use scons dist to create a tarball.
