Not off topic at all. Assuming you have a BTC p2pool node setup, you'll need to open up port 9332. To be a "good" citizen, you should have the following ports open:

8333 - BTC peers
9333 - p2pool peers
9332 - p2pool miners

Note that opening up 8333 and 9333 will allow multiple peers to connect and you will see higher bandwidth usage.

Can you post your logs of when the problem started? This looks exactly like the problem I referred to earlier.Also, are you using the relatnetworkclient?

and again ... i have a problem with the shares of P2Pool.
Shares don't rise on P2Pool command ... and Bitcoin Core debug.log indicate insane "input already spend".

Huh

someone have an explaination, or, it's again a corrupted share chain in my folder (local).

I have noticed happen with p2pools that go a long time between finding blocks.

P2Pool power : http://minefast.coincadence.com/p2pool-stats.php = 1,5 PH/s
Bitcoin power : https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty = 365 PH/s

no problem here. Wink

Hm this is interesting and worth investigating. However, now I have no idea how to use p2pool over TOR?

I don't have an answer for the original question, sorry, but will say that p2pool over tor is a horrible idea.

One of the main trade-offs for using the onion router is speed for privacy, you loose a great deal of speed to gain incremental privacy.

As a miner on p2pool, the competition is tough and speed is everything; latency from miner to node, node to peers, bitcoin's GBT latency, etc...

Tor, while an awesome project, slows things down by its very privacy centric routing nature.

Tor - great for privacy, horrible for mining bitcoin.

You are probably right so I ll have to give up on running p2pool on this specific coin. Thank you all for trying to help me, very kind from all of the ppl here.

I know this is the wrong forum for this but there is something I have noticed happen with p2pools that go a long time between finding blocks.

The Share data Timestamp gets out of sync with the Block Timestamp (share example below).

After enough blocks are found it eventually syncs back up.
The main problem with this is that the share difficulty stays at the lowest possible rate until it does sync causing p2pool to overload itself when large miners come on.

A not so important side effect is that if you have irc announce on it does not report found blocks until it is back in sync.

If anyone is inclined to look into this I would be forever thankful.

Doesn't joincoin use TOR? I've never tried using p2pool over TOR, but I'm sure it requires a slightly different configuration, ie:

Code:

 -tor=         Use proxy to reach tor hidden services (default: same as -proxy)

Just a thought......

lol, give it a try if Joincoin is in fact using Core =* could be mucking up the works. Try deleting it or changing it to =::/0

Yes I know that wildcards are not used anymore but still there is a:

Quote

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

and

Quote

rpcconnect=127.0.0.1

I m really thankful for your time trying to help and this becoming real interesting task

Last two days I m working on this

I missed the fact the .conf file was posted, doh.

Ok, one more try...

Is Joincoin based on Bitcoin-Core?

I see 'rpcconnect=*' and 'rpcallowip=*' I recall something about this no longer being allowed syntax... let me see...

Change to 'rpcconnect=::/0' and 'rpcallowip=::/0' and see what happens. Also if you're using wild cards like that all those additional addresses are redundant.

There is no such value in .conf file, but what could be confusing here is taking P2P_PREFIX from his specific coin.
According to this:

Quote

pchMessageStart[0] = 0xf1;
pchMessageStart[1] = 0xb4;
pchMessageStart[2] = 0xdc;
pchMessageStart[3] = 0x9e;

P2P_PREFIX should look like this:

Quote

P2P_PREFIX = 'f1b4dc9e'.decode('hex') #pchmessagestart
