Ok used WinSCP and uploaded cgminer file to /usr/bin/ folder and restarted unit. It would not start hashing unless I deleted the new cgminer binary and restored the original file. My S3 Web UI status screen remains blank even after a new reboot with the new cgminer binary installed.

Hmm, README file is probably missing another command, you have to make cgminer binary executable (after you upload new binary) by issuing this command

Code:

chmod +x /usr/bin/cgminer

Verify that the new cgminer works by:

Code:

/usr/bin/cgminer -V

It should return cgminer 4.7.1, if this is OK, new binary should work.

nicehash, have you looked into the above? i can replicate it so it must be either code in cgminer, that doesnt cancel the connection, or the proxy not cancelling, when #xnsub is activated

Could you provide log output?

SSH to your miner and add logging:

vim /etc/rc.d/S99cgminer

add this " -D 2>&1 |tee /tmp/cgminerlog.txt" to the end of the line which starts with "PARAMS="$AOPTIONS $POOL1 $POO ...

so this line should look like this:

PARAMS="$AOPTIONS $POOL1 $POOL2 $POOL3 $_pb $_ow $_bec --api-listen --api-network --bitmain-checkn2diff --bitmain-hwerror --version-file /usr/bin/compile_time --queue 4096 -D 2>&1 |tee /tmp/cgminerlog.txt"

When you'll catch the idle bug, send us the logs please. Thanks!

Tried to follow your instructions but some of us are not linx savvy and don't know how to navigate around putty. Can you provide step by step instruction in more depth for us newbs? I was able to ssh into antminer 3 with putty and stop cgminer but then got stumped an how to copy original and follow the rest of the instructions. I've got the binary sitting on my windows desktop.

Use WinSCP http://winscp.net/eng/download.php to upload new binary to the AntMiner (SFTP connection, IP of your miner).

Problem:

if you set a price point, fx p=0.0135 then if it dips below said pricepoint, no work is issued, but connection is not terminated either so instead of my S3s switching to 3rd pool option, it will just hang on to the connection, waiting for work

(my rigs started beeping and woke me up)

Are you using default AntMiner S3 firmware (with cgminer 3.12.0) or updated firmware and patched cgminer (v 4.7.1)? cgminer version 3.12.0 (in the default S3 firmware) still has the so-called idle bug, which was fixed in version 4.3.1 (https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/af7401e9599f01ff000291ef2280ba05402bdf50/NEWS).

im using this version: with #xnsub support (and yes added it to the url of nicehash, without, it switches to the next pool)

Thanks to ckolivas who provided binaries for AntMiner S3 we have also tested extranonce.subscribe extension and it works as expected: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=miners&a=1&d=1&addr=15r3JQvW73FbphxjPN2oLGeQQyEXhhZLdr

More information with AntMiner cgminer binaries downloads can now be found here: https://www.nicehash.com/software/#cgminer

my pool setup is betarigs, nicehash, 3rd pool it rents out fine but when its done and pricepoint is below predefined value, its supposed to go to 3rd pool, but instead hang onto nicehash, with no work issued, if i remove #xnsub it will successfully go from 2nd pool to 3rd pool, so either its your stratum not terminating, or its something in xnsub support in cgminer that doesnt terminate and marks the pool as dead

This is great to hear! See, your connection time "Time (minutes)" is now already more then 7 hours, this means that your miners have been successfully connected to WestHash without interruptions and when order were changing, extranonce.subscribe kept you connected ... good job! Could you share the binary?

Cloned your git repository and folded in an older driver, ants1-4.3.2a-85fcf0c, version from kano's S1 git repository, cross compiled and running on two S1's now.

My modifications are here: https://github.com/7queue/cgminer-ckolivas

Here are screen shots of cgminer running on the S1's

I have ten S3+ on westhash and have used 10 instances of the stratum proxy with extranonce.subscribe extension for each of the 10 miners. I don't really see the difference in payout so I went back to not using the stratum proxy because it disconnects my miners sometimes from the pool out of the blue.

Anybody with knowledge how to compile cgminer binary for AntMiner S3+? There are many AntMiner S3 users and it would be great to get cgminer AntMiner S3 bianry with extranonce.subscribe extension...

One of the moderators of this forum (ckolivas) is the offical cgminer developer and has published revisions for the S3, S4, etc. and bitmain adopted his modifications, if I remember my reading correctly.

I'll attempt to compile for bitmain/antminer and will let you know how it works out. Was up for a solid couple hours researching this very topic last night. Good to see everyone at nicehash is thinking ahead.

i have a patched version of bitmains sources at https://github.com/FireWalkerX/cgminer-bmsc.git

just need someone to compile it, i have tested and confirmed it works on nicehash (but not tested with antminer) edit: (S[1-4] needs testing)
