Hi guys,

I am new to using Awesome Miner here and run into some really weird glitch (?) Hopefully someone can please help me out

I have several miners set up to mine ETH in Nanopool. I wanted to mine into 2 separate wallets (some of the rigs are for my friend's while some are mine.) I created 2 pools and assign miners to them accordingly - say pool1 and pool2.

When miner is "stopped", the pool name shows up correctly under miner tab. However, once I start the miner, for some reason, the display names all changed to a display pool1. Seems like this is only a display error on Awesome miner because when I check on Nanopool, it seems to be mining into correct wallet.

Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone had this before?

Thank you in advance, guys!

This is a display issue only.

For mining software that report both pool URL and worker name, this is not a problem at all. Awesome Miner will look at this information and figure out which pool in Awesome Miner this matches and it will show coin information and the name of the pool as defined in Awesome Miner. It's about guessing, but works almost 100% of the cases.

Then we have some mining software that only report the pool URL to Awesome Miner, not the worker name. Awesome Miner will still try to figure out which pool in Awesome Miner this would represent. However, the guessing can fail because with only a pool URL, you may find two pools with the same URL. This is what happens on your scenario - the guessing goes wrong because Awesome Miner is not aware of the worker name.

There can for sure be ways of improving this (the most obvious would of course be to tell the mining software developers to pass worker name), but at least you have the explanation above.

I am not clear on adding a pool. There is nothing showing under options/pool but obviously I must be using one because I'm mining.

The predefined pools used by the profit miner (pools defined in Options dialog, Profit switching section) will not show up in the pools you have in Options dialog Pools section. So if you do profit switching, the pool list may very well be empty.

You can still add you own pool here and make it part of the profit switching pools as a "Custom pool".

Hello,

This software is really great. Could it be possible to implement XMRIG (https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig) for CPU mining? This miner is fastest on many CPUs. It has his own API:

https://github.com/xmrig/xmrig/wiki/API

It’s only thing I miss

Thanks

I will consider it. Thanks for the suggestion. There are many XMR miners these days. I recently added support for Cast XMR and by using an External Miner, also XMR-Stak is supported.

question about buying an AM license. if there's a group of us that are all running the same thing, with the same settings, can we share an Enterprise license with the multi-user login? or does that break the ToS? Huh

It's not possible to run multiple instances of Awesome Miner at the same time on a single computer. Even if you create multiple accounts, you cannot use the application at the same time. The web interface allows multiple users to login, but that one is limited in terms of functionality.

Hello! Quick question - how do I assign different GPUs to different pools?

The "Enable/Disable" button is greyed out on the GPU tab for the pool, and using Rules does not switch off GPUs either (and would do it globally). I've looked through all settings and do not see an easy way to just mine altcoins on zpool with one GPU and eth on nanopool with the other GPU.

Hi,
You need to create more than one miner, and for each miner you need to specify the command line for only using specific GPU's. For example if you run Claymore Miner you specify "-di 0,1" on the first miner and "-di 2,3" on the second. The difficult part is if you are going to do profit switching with many mining software. Awesome Miner doens't have any automatic way of setting this up for you, so it will be some work to figure out all command line parameters for all software to be used.

Enable/Disable concept for GPU's are only for mining software that has support for this feature. It's not supported by all.

Can we add an action that changes the webgui password and root password for the miners. I have my trigger set to detect the default bitmain pool and then change the pool to my preset pools but I would also like for it to then login root:root at the ip of the miner and change the password. The link is below for one of my miners replacing NEW with the variable for whatever the desired password would be. It would make batch deployment easier as it is I have to do it by hand for every miner.

http://10.0.0.63/cgi-bin/passwd.cgi?current_pw=root&new_pw=NEW&new_pw_ctrl=NEW

Is that possible to do if you use "Example: Open web interface for ASIC miner" as a starting point, but adjusts some parameter?

The Electroneum profit calculation is rather strange. This comes from WhatToMine right? AM has always been high on the profit for Electroneum but the percentage gap widens as the WhatToMine profit goes up. For example:

WhatToMine $66
AM $100

WhatToMine $79
AM $142

Any idea why this is?

I don't know exactly why, but WhatToMine calculates with at 35% pool fee (bad luck) on ETN:

Here's a possible issue: why can't I edit the "Add to worker name" field on a template (under General->Mining Pool)? I am using a built-in miner and and have selected a pool. I can edit the field ok on the managed miner's properties with the same other settings.

Yeah so this is kind of a big problem with pools like Nanopool where you want to append the worker name. If you apply templates then it breaks pools that don't support such a syntax.

I haven't tried yet but is it possible to edit the setting through editing the configuration file? I realize it may be over-written if you edit the template through AM.

Maybe I'm not understanding the problem here. The template does not append the name. The pool and miner define the name. The pool provides the prefix, and the miner provides the rig name... like "puwaha.rig1" The "puwaha" part comes from the worker name in the pool, and the ".rig1" comes from the miner. The template just marries the pool to the rig. Templates are meant for quickly switching to another pool or coin quickly... it's not meant for profit miners.

Am I misreading the question?

This has nothing to do with profit miners.

The problem is with pools that need an email address after the rig name in order to access account settings, like Nanopool (format like ADDRESS.WORKER/EMAIL). This format won't work with other pools that don't take the email part. I guess setting it in templates wouldn't work anyway if it has the rig name in it. I'm not sure what the solution is. AM maybe needs an additional field to store the email separately. The pool properties has an "ignore add to worker name" checkbox. Maybe add a text field there to store the email address.

The HW Errors Trigger for ASIC is not working any more.
Before last update I picked up the value 11, this figure was not clear to me, it's definitely not "%", but it worked.
After the last update (I think) even 1% does not work, although the errors just fell more than 1000, which was more than 1%. Then I restarted ASIC and got 4% of the errors, but the trigger does not work. ((
Something broked with this.

The HW Percent rule in Awesome Miner is comparing number of HW Errors with the number of Accepted shares and calculates a percent out of that. It's been like that for 3 years. The Antminer HW Error Percent reported directly from the miner may be a bit different. What does Accepted and HW Errors looks like?

pic here:

the trigger does not work with any value now.
Why not use a what Antminer HW Error Percent reported directly? This would be more correct than counting the number of the shares, which is very dependent on the pool and the stratum difficulty.
Especially when restarting the miner is very critical.

Regards!

As some of you noticed already. WhatToMine API isn't working.

This is the reason you will see 0 everywhere in the application.

Anybody having issues with the statistics module connecting to whattomine from AM?

Ping requests and normal browser checks to www.whattomine.com works outside the software, but when AM attempts to connect to it and find the json it spits back out: "[E]Failed to download string from: http://www.whattomine.com/asic.json
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (503) Server Unavailable."

EDIT:
- Tried parsing the json stats directly from python and it denied it too, seems like whattomine might of blocked connections if the connection isn't from a web browser agent?

Yeah some user defined coims just disappeared, sometimes show sometimes gone... strange and annoying

Yep.. looks like whattomine just enabled some extra cloudflare protection to prevent direct access to their site

Wrote him a letter pointing out the issue.
