Use php ckdb.php - not ckpmsg - there's problems using ckpmsg - and ckdb.php points to the correct socket if you are using /opt/ (don't use /tmp/)

Your error above means it sent it to the wrong socket.

when i exec ./initid.sh | ckpmsg /tmp

the ckdb log show me

Unlimited. You'll have to configure your linux box to have enough open files to cope.

Maximum number of miners can be connected to a ckproxy is unlimited or limited?
Thank you

but I think that it should be password zipped and the password is only given at the end of a short test about simple things, terminal use in Ubuntu, PHP errors, basic Java debugging and maybe even a few questions on ethics, 

With luck, even those that have little knowledge will slide through without losing people's money.  Some people will scam, some people will simply fail and lose the funds.  I love the software, I would love to jump on it myself and actually considered using it to combine the efforts of multiple miners at my office and home.

Providing the software for free to run a good pool is indeed a two edged sword.

It lowers the barrier of entry to the point where anyone with the minimum necessary knowledge can start up a pool which is not a good thing because a pool needs to be run by someone who is a software and networking expert in their own right and can provide the kind of 24/7 experienced support and maintenance that a good server needs, not just 'some random guy renting out a vps.'

However it also provides the bitcoin world with a well tested, developed, scalable solution that is designed from the ground up to provide the best experience for miners and hardware that does not waste hashrate, electricity, and make hardware misbehave, along with a block creation system that is guaranteed to support the bitcoin blockchain in the best manner possible, not creating empty, partially validated blocks and skimping on transactions - which is the whole point of bitcoin. The mining was never meant to be a means unto itself, it was meant to be a system to validate transactions. Pools that choose software options that don't do this are harming or at least holding back bitcoin's growth and maturity - the four largest pools all do this - one has even published new pool software code that encourages it.

Providing free software is also a two edged sword, but that debate is better left elsewhere. My sum position is the software world at large has realised that it is better off with free software as it helps improve the global pool of knowledge more than it helps just lining the pockets of the people who created the software in the first place. I've always believed in this ideal and pushed my contractors to choose free software when possible, and even charge less to write free software than private code.

When we see questions about simple changes to conf files on projects like this, to me that shows that we are going to have a lot of pools coming out.

I love all the work that you have done with this and your other projects.  I just hope that people watch these new pools closely.  When it becomes this easy to deploy a mining pool, and the startup costs become no more than the domain, the server and maybe some promotion. Does this make for unqualified pool owners and managers?

This is now fixed in git master.

There's supposed to be support, though I believe it broke somewhere along the line. I'll look into it when time permits.

ck, is it possible to make a support for reconnect command?
i think this is a problem with MRR service

Yeah it took me a day or two to figure that out, lol i got worried and was like whats going on?
But its all good now.   

Awesome, congrats on the block solve and thanks for donation! (You can't send money till the block has matured; well you can send it but it won't go anywhere till it matures.)

Thank you for your wise words -ck

Tip finally went through

OMG  i am running!!!!
thank you -ck

auth is your workername

I do not see where to add worker name in the ckproxy.conf file. would it be in the ckpool.conf file?
this is all i see in ckproxy.conf, where would it go?
{
"proxy" :  [
        {
                "url" : "ckpool.org:3333",
                "auth" : "user",
                "pass" : "pass"
        },
        {
                "url" : "backup.ckpool.org:3333",
                "auth" : "user",
                "pass" : "pass"
        }
],
"update_interval" : 30,
"serverurl" : "192.168.1.100:3334",
"mindiff" : 1,
"startdiff" : 42,
"logdir" : "logs"
}
Comments from here on are ignored.

Thank you sooo much -ck   cant wait till i hit that solo block thats coming up.  lol  get ready for the tip

You need to add a valid workername for the pool you're trying to mine to in the ckproxy.conf file (in this case a valid workername is a bitcoin address with any worker extension such as 1PKN98VN2z5gwSGZvGKS2bj8aADZBkyhkZ.proxy ).
