Having an issue with running a batch file before starting the mining software.  The batch file runs ok but when it ends AM stops the managed miner and attempts to restart it.  It never even tries to launch the miner software.

Here's the message from Diagnostics after the batch file runs:

Unexpected exit of mining software. Possible cause: Incorrect configuration
Diagnostics completed

This is the batch file:

C:\DevCon\devcon.exe disable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 3
C:\DevCon\devcon.exe enable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 2
C:\OverdriveNTool\OverdriveNTool.exe -p1Main -p2Main -p3Main -p4Main -p5Main

The miner launches ok if I don't use the batch file so I know the miner configuration is correct.
Is this something you have entered in the Properties of a Managed Miner, Command line section, in the "Batch-file commands" field? Is it working better if you remove the timeouts?
Did you get any additional output from the diagnostics other than the last few lines saying that it failed?

Yes, command line section of the batch file area of the managed miner.  The delays don't seem to make a difference.

The only output above the lines I posted were the lines that were executed in the batch file.

In AW I change the pools for D3 asic but after rebooting asic they are reset and set as they are recorded in the Asic Miner General Configuration tab.
How to fix it?
I want the order of the pools to remain the same as specified in Awesome miner.
Thanks!

I used to really enjoy this software, but now every single miner is flagged and I can't start anything. My uploaded or your downloaded miners. Why? Why is it such a huge headache to use this software now.

I have:

removed MW bytes
turned off AV
exceptions to all programs and folders.

what am i missing. It's is extremely frustrating that the FAQ has no help in this regard. I wanted to upgrade but why......

This PC isn't a dedicated miner, but it is also happening on the dedicated rigs freshly installed yesterday. Doesn't help. I also can't find out what is flagging it. All AV is off, MW bytes is off, all files removed from quarantines, and the diagnostics app gets blocked trying to find it. I assume it was windows defender which is on anyway with a fresh install..so what then. Oh, my uploaded miners to the app run fine when used outside of AM. It's like AM destroys any file it touches. Only thing I have successfully managed to keep on are my asics. Waste of 70 bucks.

Thanks for sharing the details. According to the diagnostics you have configured your Managed Miner to start with the additional command line "ccminer -o pool -u wallet -p x", which result in that you will start ccminer process and pass in ccminer as a parameter to the ccminer-exe-file. That work not work. I also wonder if you made some custom configuration to what the exe-file would be.

Please open the Properties of your Managed Miner, go to the Command Line section and remove any custom configuration you have made. Then it should work better. If not, please share a new diagnostics output and a screenshot of the configuration of your Managed Miner. Thanks!

Feature suggestion:  the console view is nice to see what's going on with the miner on the remote system but it would be cool if it would take keyboard input for some two-way interaction.

Fix your windows before saying anything bad about awesome miner.

Awesome miner is not meant to fix it for you.

I guess you only read what you want to read. These miners work out of AM. So why is it not working in AM. Huh? It seems you clearly have nothing helpful to say. Must feel good about yourself just being an A for no reason.

So what exactly is flagging the miners?  A raw install of Windows is all you need.  You don't need AV on a dedicated miner.

Has anyone used Awesome miner to monitor rigs using nvOC mining software?

 [OS] nvOC easy-to-use Linux Nvidia Mining v0019-1.4

If you have got it to work. What did you have to do? Thanks in advance.

Sorting doesn't seem to work on the GPU list.   I can click the column headers and the little arrow indicates the sort order but the list is clearly not being sorted by that column though it does reorder the list (not sure by what though).  Is sorting supposed to work?

The sorting is not implemented for the GPU list, but you are correct that it's possible to click the column headers - although you don't get any sorting done. Was it something like sorting by temperature or hashrate you had in mind for scenarios where you have a large number of GPU's? This could be something for me to improve in the future.

Yes I was thinking you could sort by temperature or even hash rate.  Some of my rigs will have up to 12 GPUs and it could be a handy feature.

Not a big deal, just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

Patrike,

Can you update cpuminer to 3.7.4 that now has 4way support. Tested it here over the last few days, all seems well with this release.

Hi patrike,

is it possible that you have maybe an bug in your software, maybe in the auto api privilege mode?

since im using your app my devices are often restarting within  2 hours after mining start - sometimes after 5 mines, sometimes after 10 .. maybe sometimes after 20 minutes or an hour Cheesy so really random but 99% within the first 2 hours. i've deactivated already auto profit switch and the fail detection features but i was sure that isn't solving this, because if some of this options are triggered i should got an notification too.

so, for now i've shutdown your app und since then my miners are running already over 4 hours without interruption. All Devices are btw Antminer L3+.

Ahh and about Granat:
Was working now again - as you said, the problem seems to be the http instability over the last week. for sure it was checked/enabled, but possibly not reachable Cheesy Not in your Hands Smiley

ok,thanks for adding support for sia dual mining! just a quick question how can i control sia intensity from AM could you include snap shot of how you entered it into pool configuration GUI,  thanks for the help.
The fastest way to do it for a single Managed Miner is to right click on it and open Properties. Then go to Command Line section and enter something like:
-dcri 40

Having an issue with profit display for one rig.  I have two rigs, both set to "unspecified CryptoNight" because I'm using NiceHash.  One rig displays profit ok but the other does not.  Both rigs have valid hashrate but the difference is the one that works is using Claymore and the one that doesn't is using a user-defined miner but the strange thing is if I apply a different template that uses Electroneum it displays profit ok.  I don't understand what is going on.

(I'm getting a hashrate with my user-defined miner because of the adapter app I wrote to feed hashrates from XMR-Stak to AM)
The latest version of Awesome Miner can get API data from XMR-Stak API. Please use that one instead, because I cannot give support on something that is outside the product itself.

Having an issue with running a batch file before starting the mining software.  The batch file runs ok but when it ends AM stops the managed miner and attempts to restart it.  It never even tries to launch the miner software.

Here's the message from Diagnostics after the batch file runs:

Unexpected exit of mining software. Possible cause: Incorrect configuration
Diagnostics completed

This is the batch file:

C:\DevCon\devcon.exe disable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 3
C:\DevCon\devcon.exe enable "PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_687F"
timeout /t 2
C:\OverdriveNTool\OverdriveNTool.exe -p1Main -p2Main -p3Main -p4Main -p5Main

The miner launches ok if I don't use the batch file so I know the miner configuration is correct.
Is this something you have entered in the Properties of a Managed Miner, Command line section, in the "Batch-file commands" field? Is it working better if you remove the timeouts?
Did you get any additional output from the diagnostics other than the last few lines saying that it failed?
