Use older firmware, the one with 2.10.5a IIRC and use username+16 or username+32 diff for stratum to work. Still expect 20-30% DOA, but full speed hashrates after a minute or so.

2.11.4 with the worker threads seems to break p2pool again under stratum.

I've been out of town, plus buried in work and just getting back.

Out of curiousity, is it possible to Merge mine Litecoins & Feathercoins?  I thought I'd give it a go using P2pool merge command (and both coins are scrypt).  All I get is errors in P2pool when it tries to getwork from Feathercoin.

Anyway, does this all look normal? Been running for about 4 hours. Nothing showing in my wallet yet.

You only get paid if p2pool finds a block. That could take some hours.
cgminer version 2.6.4 is kind of outdated.
Try version 3.0.0, available here:

Thank you. I thought I was all set up, looks like I wasn't dialed in at all. This would be the wrong thread for me then. Thanks again.

My HW states 0, I don't see how I am all hardware errors?
Sorry, but UR really BLIND?
Your EVERY GPU is making A:16-19 R:1-4 HW:500-600

Ah. I'm new to this, was looking at the main "HW" at the top. Jeez..

Turned it all off. I'm running 3x 7950s, ud4h gigabyte board, win7 along with cgminer and p2pool directing to my local wallet. Set up the pool with cgeasy, 256, 18 intensity.

Turning it down to 12 is where it gives me 0 hardware errors. Yet takes my speed from 500 per card to 220 per card.... grr.

I know Aseras and ckolivas spent some time trying to get Avalons to play with p2pool with mixed results I think. If Aseras is AFK then maybe ask ckolivas how it went?
I did not directly work with p2pool. It was a lot of work to bring the avalon code in line with mainline cgminer, and improve some the driver flakiness, which I have done thanks to the access provided by Aseras. I only tested it briefly on p2pool with stratum and saw it produce a truckload of duplicate shares and then p2pool go into some kind of death spiral trying to catch up with shares and then the avalon getting all angry at me. With fix protocol p2pool would continually run out of resources on the machine trying to process shares and the avalon would be just as pissed off at me. I've not played with avalon on p2pool since, but with enough time I may be able to instrument this problem more in the future. I have no firm working diagnosis, but vague ideas to do with large coinbases on avalon with its limited resources, and perhaps some kind of overflow in the stratum message from p2pool or resubmissions, or time to process shares or... There is a lot happening at the moment though  Undecided

Further the constant long polling apparently is normal with p2pool ltc mining?
"This is completely normal with P2Pool. P2Pool has its own merged mining sidechain that goes at a rate of 10 seconds - you're seeing long polls because someone else got a P2Pool share."

I just assumed I haven't been paid as the difficulty is set differently at p2pool. I still have 51 accepted shares at the time of that picture.

No. Look at it - you have over 1800 hardware errors and rising - you are doing nothing. Believe me.

I know as well,

the "strange" thing is, see my link in my previous message, that I can mine using stratum on p2pool using cgminer 2.10.5 with some cairnsmore1 boards, but I cannot mine, on the same p2pool, with an Avalon using latest firmware, and so cgminer 2.11.4

ckolivas says it is a p2pool problem, so I've reported it here.

I think I got p2pool working on avalon with stratum.. maybe.

its hashing at full speed last couple of minutes Cheesy

in main.py

Quote
serverfactory = switchprotocol.FirstByteSwitchFactory({'{': stratum.StratumServerFactory(wb)}, web_serverfactory)

same workaround as p2pool avalon branch, to disable work caching.

Hi Aseras,

I've found this message of yours, I'm using avalon branch of p2pool and this line is present inside p2pool/p2pool/main.py but I still cannot mine using an Avalon with stratum, I only get invalids.

I have to put --fix-protocol

Did you make other changes? Any idea?

Thanks

I've finally bit the bullet and switched over from solo mining (litecoin)

I set my CGminer to p2pool.org:9327 along with the address in my litecoin client as my username.

Should I have also downloaded the p2pool program?

Anyway, does this all look normal? Been running for about 4 hours. Nothing showing in my wallet yet.

 


Erm.....No. Turn it off - you're just wasting electricity. If you can post your set up and settings here I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction, unfortunately I know nothing of Litecoin but many here do.

As you can SEE you have ALL HW errors. So no wonder you not get paid.

forrestv,

there still are problems with Avalons even using latest cgminer, it is not completely clear why, though.

See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1918181

Thanks.

Put a fan pointed directly at your screen... you're mining so hot that the text is glowing...
