Please can you check worker name, worker password, wallet address mapping for TT-Miner? It seems a little strange - for 2miners & mintpond I have to use the -worker argument to set worker. It defaults to wallet I think if not
Except for Ethereum and a few more, you should either use one of the Worker name or the Wallet address and almost always only the Worker name - even if what you enter looks like a wallet. This may also depend on what the specific pool expects.

The miner unique worker name (like .1, .2) can be added to the Properties of the miner, using "Add to worker name".

If you still run into this problem, please share the details of your Pool and Miner configuration. Thanks!


Of course, you are correct thank you for the information!

edit: however that (adding worker name in miner props) does now make Zergpool 'online service' stop working as they do not support addition to wallet (I thought I might be able to over-ride in 'over-ride pool settings' in miner but it still adds worker). I must add via the worker name field directly (i.e. walletaddress.worker in Worker name field for 2miners/mintpond).


edit again: further it seems when using the Zergpool 'online service' the command line with TTminer is
TT-Miner.exe  -A MTP-100 -P stratum+tcp://:[email protected]:3000 --api-bind 127.0.0.1:4028
but
the pool is receiving the '.' when no workername is specified (not supported in this way @ zergpool I don't think)..
I think the pool owner is making a workaround

edit again again:
ok TTminer dev confirmed is miner issue, identified to be fixed !

Hi Patrik,

that is a bug in TT-Miner. I already fixed that and will release a new version in an hour or two that solves this problem with zergpool

Thanks!

Sorry to be insistent Patrike, but there are people asking for it

Please apply the profit indicated when defining the currency pool in the results of the COIN tab

If there were several pools for the same currency, choose the lowest profit. But 99% of the time we only have 1 pool for each currency, and within that, we add the profit.

You have it in mind in miners, in auto swtich, but it is not shown in coins. And to top it off you have removed the option of profit in coins, which although it was double work I could add it.

Also by way of suggestion. In the coins tab, in each coin you could put mini icons, with the Bitcointalk, the Discord etc ... That information you already have in the apis of the aggregators you use. It would be great to have it on hand and from Coins go to those places of each currency

Previously, on the coins tab, you could select a coin, double-click on it and in the window indicate the profit factor 1-100. Now the setting is left, but there is no window indicating the numerical value. What does it mean?

Thanks for pointing out that UI bug.

A temporary workaround to change the factor:
1) Click on the radio button "Specify profit factor"
2) Press Tab key once
3) You can now enter a value, although you don't see it

This will of course be corrected soon.

Here are the links to all the profit switching pools included by default with Awesome Miner. There are only 3 super easy steps required to get started with mining on them.

AHashPool
Blazepool
BlockMasters
Hash Refinery
Mining Dutch
Mining Pool Hub
NiceHash
NLPool
Zergpool
Zpool

For users that don't have Awesome Miner installed already, for most pools it will only take a minute from when you decide to install Awesome Miner until you are up and running with the mining. If you don't have any Managed Profit Miner already, Awesome Miner will create it for you as well.

If you already have Awesome Miner installed, it shouldn't take more than 15 seconds to enable a pool for the profit switcher using these links.

For all the professional users that have been running Awesome Miner for a while, you already know how to setup all this in the Options dialog, Profit switching section, so this feature isn't really for you. It's however good to be aware of these links if you are helping someone else to get started with mining.

Thanks to Zpool and Zergpool that already put these on their web sites. Let's hope that more pool operations will see the benefit of this concept where new users can get started with mining really fast without having to read page after page with complicated instructions and having to do many manual steps.

Any feedback is of course welcome!

is there a easy config that:
if the miner goes offline (caused by bluescreen or similar) - start with latest "state" - so if the miner was mining at pool x and the service goes offline and come back, awesomeminer should check if everything runs and if not, it should start the last pool that was used.

today i can only use "actions" with (for example) start miner - but nothing more...which miner? which pool?
By default the miner will use the settings that you see in the Properties dialog (of the miner) when it's starting again after a reboot/crash. Please also make sure you have the "auto start" checkbox enabled in the Properties of the miner, then the Remote Agent will make sure the mining starts up automatically again.

If it's a Managed Miner, the software will be the same as before as this is configured in the Properties dialog.

autostart...thats it..thx

Awesome Miner version 6.1.5

 User interface
  - Show coin algorithm on the Coins tab even if no detailed coin statistics are available
  - Clarify that additional operating costs are specified per day
 Mining software
  - BMiner 13.1
  - Gminer 1.21
  - TT-Miner 2.1.6
 Corrections
  - BMiner will not be launched with any default pool passwords and the worker name in the URL will be URL encoded
  - Correction to pool display name sent to Cloud Services when pool isn't defined in Awesome Miner
  - Better handle the scenario where a coin statistics provider doesn't return any coins to Awesome Miner

How long does it take for the "Online Services" tab, "Actual Payout" to start showing something other than 100% (for pools other than Nicehash)?

Since ZergPools return, it has stayed at 100%. Other pools are showing various percentages.

Thanks,

Thanks for letting me know. It should be working now.

That it is.

Any way to stop awesome miner from creating firewall rules for every mining software?
I don't want everyone on my LAN to have access to the mining software on my miners.

Local connections usually work even if you don't allow the program, is there any particular reason for awesome miner to create firewall rules?
There are currently no setting to prevent this behavior in Awesome Miner.

Awesome Miner is registering the mining software as an allowed application. Mining software must be able to make outgoing pool connections and also open an API port where Awesome Miner connects for monitoring information. If an application isn't registered to the Windows firewall it may be blocked and Windows almost always shows a dialog where the user must accept the application.

If you try to start almost any mining software outside of Awesome Miner (a software that Awesome Miner didn't register already) you will see that Windows Defender Firewall will show a warning dialog - unless Defender is completely disabled.

In Windows Defender Firewall you also have a setting called "Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed apps". That might be the one you are looking for in your specific scenario.

As for the inbound rules, I understand is good to have them to prevent the popups but there is no need to have them as "allow the connection" rules, because the monitoring connections are local we could have them as "block the connection" rules and the monitoring would still work correctly(as far as I have tested over the years) without allowing other LAN devices access to the mining software.

The "Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed apps" might seem enough for most use cases but I have mining computers that serve other content so I need access to some of their ports.

Please consider adding an option so we can decide whether to create the rules as allow or block rules, thank you.
Can this be solved by using the setting to block all incoming connections, but then explicitly configure Windows Defender to open up a few ports that you need?

Even if you only monitor mining software locally, Windows will still complain and show the Blocked dialog when you launch the mining software unless it's an allowed application. This is the reason why Awesome Miner adds the mining software as allowed as it's very difficult to run mining operations without it.
Block all incoming connections takes precedence over any other rule.

I manually changed the allow rules created by awesome miner for the mining software to block rules. Have been mining since I originally asked about this without any issue or popup (picture of my rules linked). The problem is that when new software is added/updated new rules will be created by awesome miner as allowed rules.
https://imgur.com/a/w7YBXdZ

If you make this an option you could just leave the default as it is now(allowed rules), just in case "blocked" rules might break anything for someone.
Thanks for the update.

I've made a quick implementation to support this case. I've introduced a new setting that you can set directly in the Awesome Miner configuration file as I don't want to expose this in the user interface.

1) Once the next version of Awesome Miner is available, install it, run it once and then exit the application.
2) Open the configuration file (%appdata%\AwesomeMiner\ConfigData.xml) and search for "ConfigureWindowsDefenderAllowedApps".
3) Change the property from true to false and save the file.

Patrike,

your build-in GPU clocking feature. Does it support more than 8+ Cards over the Afterburner Remote?

I want to upgrade my rigs to more cards, but need to be sure I can somehow clock them all. Afterburner only can clock 8 cards and NViadia Inspector cant handle Voltage and Fans for the new RTX cards.

additionally for your information (though I have not owned any RTX cards, so I can only speak for Pascal series), I have a few rigs which I recently expanded to more than 8 cards and there has been no problems for them to be clocked via Afterburner Remote Agent through AM.

Code:
OS: Win 7 64bit
Driver: 399.24
MSI AB: 4.5.0

In AM, it sends through clocking commands and were seemly executed perfectly as AM's GPU Tab returned the readings accordingly to the clocking profiles.

e.g. (for 12 cards rig)
Code:
23/01/2019 8:11:14 AM.722 [017] [S]Executing GPU clocking command: /setmacm, powerLimit0=65&coreClockBoost0=50000&memoryClockBoost0=600000&fanSpeed0=90&powerLimit1=65&coreClockBoost1=50000&memoryClockBoost1=600000&fanSpeed1=90&powerLimit2=65&coreClockBoost2=50000&memoryClockBoost2=600000&fanSpeed2=90&powerLimit3=65&coreClockBoost3=50000&memoryClockBoost3=600000&fanSpeed3=90&powerLimit4=65&coreClockBoost4=50000&memoryClockBoost4=600000&fanSpeed4=90&powerLimit5=65&coreClockBoost5=50000&memoryClockBoost5=600000&fanSpeed5=90&powerLimit6=65&coreClockBoost6=50000&memoryClockBoost6=600000&fanSpeed6=90&powerLimit7=65&coreClockBoost7=50000&memoryClockBoost7=600000&fanSpeed7=90&powerLimit8=65&coreClockBoost8=50000&memoryClockBoost8=600000&fanSpeed8=90&powerLimit9=65&coreClockBoost9=50000&memoryClockBoost9=600000&fanSpeed9=90&powerLimit10=65&coreClockBoost10=50000&memoryClockBoost10=600000&fanSpeed10=90&powerLimit11=65&coreClockBoost11=50000&memoryClockBoost11=600000&fanSpeed11=90
