Any thoughts? Why are all my proof-of-work's bad?
That's really weird, have you tried pointing it at NothinG's pool just as a control variable?

I shifted my miners back to LTC this morning when I saw I was still at "newmint" : 0.00000000.
Would love to get this going though.
Thanks!

My logic with the command line option was that I know java far better than web development, so I'd be able to secure it a lot easier, but on second thought I really don't want to make an exchange, as I'd be the one in the end holding the bag when someone finds some security hole in my program. I'm not confident enough in my programming skills at this point in time to put money on the line like that... it just takes one oversight 
Thanks for the input though, and yeah, the only reason the java client was more secure is because I could code it alot better. 
Thanks for the input though, and yeah, the only reason the java client was more secure is because I could code it alot better. You still didn't get it. The security of the server is what's crucial, the code quality of the client does not impact overall security at all. The client can't protect against any attacks at all, as an attacker could always just build his own client. So whether it's a web client or not doesn't make any difference, as long as the server side backend is the same.

September 05, 2012, 01:34:03 AM
Yeah, that probably is why I'm not seeing the yay! ...
I also noticed that the official linux distribution compiles a different version string than it is shipped with in the bin directory!
"version" : "v0.2.0.0-g09051bd-beta",
vs.
"version" : "v0.2.0.0-beta",
I always compile from source. Somethings wrong there.
I'm gonna try on ppcoin 0.1.0 for a bit too, see how that goes.

If you build with make yourself, the version would look like that so it's normal. Here g09051bd refers to the git commit id which is the correct commit id for v0.2.0. The official build version string is v0.2.0ppc-beta.
As to your cpuminer issues I don't know if it's just pure bad luck or something else. One suggestion is to look through debug.log and search for 'ERROR'. If you see messages about rejection of blocks you can post it here for analysis (although I suppose cpuminer should report block rejection in some fashion as well?).
Awesome, glad there's no issues with the version strings.
Been running on v0.1.0 for the last several hours, see lots of the exceptions (as expected?) but I also see:
Code:
ERROR: CAlert::CheckSignature() : verify signature failed
ERROR: BitcoinMiner : proof-of-work not meeting target
ERROR: CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : vout empty
ERROR: CTxMemPool::accept() : CheckTransaction failed
ERROR: CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : vout empty
ERROR: CTxMemPool::accept() : CheckTransaction failed
ERROR: CTransaction::CheckTransaction() : txout.nValue below minimum
ERROR: CTxMemPool::accept() : CheckTransaction failed
Any of that mean anything?
I'll switch back to v0.2.0, see if I get any other errors. Thanks!

Does cpuminer support ppcoins? I use cgminer.
It's all sha256, should be fine, but I did do a little research before I started:
yes ,
i got it working, had to restart ppcoind.exe
only mining locally, want to try on your pool tomorrow, i'm going to sleep now
edit:
fyi im using poolers cpu miner for best performance, it looks like it is ~10Mhash faster
minerd -a sha256d -o http://127.0.0.1:9902 -u user -p pass
(and on the other machine i use cgminer for the gpu)

Thanks for that. Sadly, no dice. Still no "yay!" from cpuminer.
What do you mean by a "yay", a connection?
cpuminer gives a yay! every once in a while when shares are successfully submitted.
He probably means, "yay! block found!"
I would be surprised if he mined a block so quickly, but it did happen to me once.

September 04, 2012, 10:06:09 PM
It occurred to me, maybe the "yay!" is a longpolling message of some kind?
I just got used to seeing them with btc and ltc and I'm not seeing them with ppc.
