How do I get SgMiner to work in AwesomeMiner? I have no issue with Claymore, but when I try to use SgMiner I get this error:

> [20:50:17] All devices disabled, cannot mine!
> [20:50:15] Started sgminer 5.5.4-gm                    
> [20:50:15] * using Jansson 2.7                    
> [20:50:15] Loaded configuration file awesome.conf                    
> [20:50:17] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable                    
> [20:50:17] All devices disabled, cannot mine!

This is on a 13 x RX570 rig. Using SgMiner in the NiceHash miner works fine.
Two troubleshooting tips here:
1) Try to disable sgminer-gm and only use the standard sgminer. If this is in a profit switcher, please go to Options dialog, Profit profile, Edit AMD, the uncheck sgminer-gm.
2) See if Nicehash adds any custom command line parameters for sgminer on your system that makes it more stable. You can then enter those command line parameters in Awesome Miner itself.

Recently AwesomeMiner began to stop mining after switching to sgminer (I'm on AMDs). From logs it seems to try and restart it a few times, each time complaining about

 Process already closed

and

  No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:4028

and then it just gives up. Restart on offline detection didn't help.

From the logs, it doesn't try to switch back to other miners, like EthDcrMiner, it just keeps pounding at the Sgminer until it gives up. I am able to start Sgminer manually using the same command from the log and it works fine. Also I've seen it working fine before with AwesomeMiner. I've checked and Firewall isn't a problem. Access to sgminer.exe is allowed on all ports and I see it listening on 4028 when running.

I didn't find much on this on the net, so coming to the source. It goes down every day, with a 100% repro rate, so I'm loosing hours of mining. Any ideas? Here is the log snippet.

Can you use the Diagnostics button in the toolbar to get more output information from sgminer itself? It may give some hint about what is wrong. In general, Sgminer is the most difficult mining software to configure because it has so many parameters and they depend very much on the GPU's being used, making it difficult to give general recommendations.

All other mining software run stable on your system except Sgminer? What about if you try to disable the Neoscrypt algorithm, if it's only that one?

Yes, only Sgminer and Sgminer-GM. I disabled both in the AMD profit profile and the mining hasn't stopped ever since, but that defeats the purpose of profit switching. My cards are R9 290s and R9 Fury X. In both cases the same repro.

I've caught Sgminer crash process one one of the systems, but don't see similar crashes on other machines where AwesomeMiner just gave up. Here's what it logged:

Faulting application name: sgminer.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x001dc4e4
Faulting module name: amdocl64.dll, version: 22.19.685.0, time stamp: 0x59d6a487
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x000000000049e606
Faulting process id: 0x1d64
Faulting application start time: 0x01d3633675ea8bbb
Faulting application path: C:\Users\Michael\AppData\Local\AwesomeMiner\sgminer-gm-5.5.4_1\sgminer-gm\sgminer.exe
Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\c0318724.inf_amd64_3e17b73ae627ea03\amdocl64.dll
Report Id: 0678aba1-075a-43b9-9b9d-c5d29519691d
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:

Which looks like a one-off display driver induced bug (17.10.1 radeon drivers).

I think the root cause for this AwesomeMiner giving up is its inability to connect to port 4028 on localhost for Sgminer(-gm). I assume that's the control port it uses for manage all miners. It looks like sgminer process dies, and AwesomeMiner doesn't realize that and keeps trying to talk to it, instead of switching to another miner.

What would I be looking for in the Diagnostics log?
I cannot do much about the crashes in sgminer itself, but I do have a recommendation here. I think that you might have a scenario where Sgminer is crashing, but your system is showing a crash dialog that is preventing the sgminer process from terminating.

In this scenario, both Windows and Awesome Miner will think that sgminer is still running and cannot do anything about it. The solution is to disable this dialog in Windows and simply let the process terminate right away. Awesome Miner will detect that as a crash and try to recover.

Hi, first of all, thanks for awesome software Smiley I use it mostly for ASIC Antminer monitoring, and I have a some question.

I made a rule, which reboots asic on trigger "chip failure". However if asic has a "chip failure" right after reboot, there is a infinite reboot.
Please give a tip of advice how to make rule with automatic reboot in case of critical failures but not more than 3 times in a row.

Thanks a lot.
Thanks for your feedback. Today there are no way of counting number of times an action has triggered and have a limit on that.

What if you configure your rule to have two triggers? First you check if chip failure, second you have a Time trigger that goes off for example every hour. Then your reboot action will happen at most one time per hour. Your miner will then still do some work in between and you can disable the rule for this specific miner later on if you see that it never recovers.

Hi Patrike,

When this happens :

it leads to this issue :

Miner doesn't gets restarted as AwesomeMiner did not detect the crash.

Offline rules don't do anything, it just stays offline like this forever.
It's not a crash, but it should trigger the offline detection rule. It could probably be detected by the "Accept Progress" rule as well if enabled.

Can you please share some details of how the Offline Detection rule is configured? That will help me understand why it didn't work as expected. Thanks!

Here you go ! Not sure why even the hashrate 10min doesn't catch it ..

https://ibb.co/kNAWa6
I have identified a scenario where Offline Detection didn't work correctly for Managed Miners in the "Interface offline" scenario. A correction will be included in the next release.

Is there a way to get Awesome Miner to mine three different coins on the game rig? Three different miner programs on the same rig (three algorithms on two GPU's each).

The command is --telemetry=0.0.0.0:4029 instead of --api ...

Then you can query it via browser or json query.

It would take somebody from Awesome Miner, to add support for stats, patrike?
There is a sample json-rpc.txt file in the folder:

Request:

    "error":    null
}


IS IT POSSIBLE TO ADD SUPPORT OF "dstm-zcash" MINER ?

I can get this to work, but only by using it as a custom miner within Awesome Miner, the problem is Awesome Miner does not get any data back from the miner so no stats are displayed.

Patrike,

Below is the diagnostic output...  I hope you can fix / add this in Awesome Miner soon.

General information
Both zpool and Hash Refinery have some problems with their profit reporting. It's not a change in the API that Awesome Miner can adjust to, instead it's simply incorrect profit values listed on their site. It's just temporary according to this tweet from zpool:
https://twitter.com/_zpool_/status/933420168050552832

If you see super high profit values in Awesome Miner for some of these pools today, it will go away once they have resolved this issue.

Awesome Miner supports a few other Innosilicon miners. I don't know about A5 yet, but it will probably work fine. Do you have this miner already?

Hi Patrike

Please add the opportunity to block / unblock the mining of a certain coin in the "Coins Tab" list. Sometimes the statistic received from the online services is incorrect and at this point it would be convenient to ignore this coin in the "profit switching" until the correct data arrives. Recently, very often incorrect data come from InfluxCoin.

Regards
Hi,

The profit switcher is mining on the pools you have defined, not on any coin on the Coins tab. But I assume you have a pool for this specific coin and want to take it away for the moment? For a specific coin you the option to select in in the Coins tab and click Coin Properties in the toolbar to set a custom (for example much lower) profit factor. By setting a very low profit factor it will not be considered interesting by the profit switcher.

Hi, Patrick. At me to you the request - whether it is possible to make in a benchmark at once for all cards, instead of on one card?
In most cases people have the serveral identical cards, so it's no use to benchmark all of them. If you have different cards types, the recommendation is also to have a profile for each card, so you save the benchmark results separately.

See this page for more information:
