does anyone know what error 1002 means? I'm getting GPU #0 strap "1" failed, error 1002 how do I fix that and what does that error mean? all straps get that error
Using Radeon VII

The straps do not work on Radeon Vii thats why you're getting that error, its not supported. You should try running the intensity tricks on the miner vs straps.

Intensity trick? could you please specify if it's not too much to ask 🙏

sure. But two of three rigs just hangs at this same moment (Rx 470 & Rx 480), it happens when ETC touch epoch 280. Below is my config.txt content (they nearly just the same on both machines)

Try "-eres 0".

miner dont work/ test on 8 gb card

EthDcrMiner64.exe -allcoins 1 -eres 0 -mode 1 -asm 2 -esm 3 -rxboost 1

epool
POOL: stratum+tcp://daggerhashimoto.eu.nicehash.com:3353, WALLET: xxx.RIG01, PSW: x, ALLPOOLS: 1

then switch to etc mining DAG 281 have error

pnoenixminer work fine

test on lot of rigs with different card 4\8 gb same error
14.6 14.7 same error
driver 18.6.1 19.7.2 same error

plz fixminer

add test directly on etc pool. same error

hoooooly ff**. You are right! I've checked my config line by line and found that there were "-eres 20" option between my #comment lines at the very bottom of the file. I was sure, that at the bottom are only #comments lines with my tests, thoughts etc (mean et cetera, not ethereum classic Cheesy

) so I did not paste them. After deleting "-eres 20" my miners can mine ETC again (AFAIR eres=2 by default). So it means miner tried to work with DAG epoch 280 + 20 = 300, and that is why it crashed

THANK YOU!

Looks like it's not enough memory to set DAG #280... Do you have enough virtual memory (page file) size?

And another one thing. You use -allcoins 1. This is what Claymore writes in readme:

-allcoins Specify "-allcoins 1" to be able to mine Ethereum forks, in this mode miner will use some default pools for devfee Ethereum mining.
Note that if devfee mining pools will stop, entire mining will be stopped too.
Miner has to use two DAGs in this mode - one for Ethereum and one for Ethereum fork, it can cause crashes because DAGs have different sizes.
Therefore for this mode it is recommended to specify current Ethereum epoch (or a bit larger value),
for example, "-allcoins 47" means that miner will expect DAG size for epoch #47 and will allocate appropriate GPU buffer at starting, instead of reallocating bigger GPU buffer (may crash) when it starts devfee mining.
Another option is to specify "-allcoins -1", in this mode miner will start devfee round immediately after start and therefore will get current epoch for Ethereum, after that it will be able to mine Ethereum fork.
If you mine ETC on some pool that does not accept wallet address but requires Username.Worker instead, the best way is to specify "-allcoins etc", in this mode devfee mining will be on ETC pools and DAG won't be recreated at all.

Try to set "-allcoins etc"

thanx for response. I tried increase virtual memory before (set it even to 45000MB) and this did not help.
"-allcoins etc" could be solution but miner did not stay alive long enough to change dag epoch because of devfee, so probably this wouldn't help.

Anyway Claymore hit the bull's eye

I can paste log too, bu there is strictly NOTHING because miner hangs (sometime with restart, sometime not). It hangs after "setting dag epoch 280" line and before "setting dag epoch 280 done". I tried older version of claymore. It stops hanging but it just creating dag epoch and never finish. Changing port on pool to mining ETH solves the problem... for now

Phoenix miner works another way than Claymore's. It use optimized kernels wich is must be calculated with depends of DAG epoch. This is why if miner didn't contains optimized kernels for some DAG it would give error.

Claymore's miner didn't use kernels optimized for each epoch. So it must work on any DAG. You must provide your config, bat file and log to determine what's your problem.

What's wrong with dag 281 epoch? It works fine in my tests. If you to get some support, it's a good idea to post your config.txt file and some hardware info (or log file).

I have a miner hang at epoch 280 (both Rx 470 4gb and Rx 480 4gb). After switch to ETH (epoch 272 it still working well). It is not a config problem it is problem with miner. Check phoenix miner topic and there is same epoch problem with older miner versions

C&p
"Read this if you can't mine ETH or ETC with PhoenixMiner: important message for everyone that is running older versions of PhoenixMiner (before 4.2).

IMPORTANT! The versions of PhoenixMiner before 4.2 only support DAG epoch up to 265. Both ETC and ETH has reached epoch 266 already. To ensure uninterrupted operation, please upgrade to 4.2. If you are mining other coins, you can safely disregard this message.

The reason for this limitation is that we need to perform some quite complex calculations for each future DAG epoch in order to increase the hashrate of the optimized kernels. Recently we have added more computational resources and PhoenixMiner 4.2 will work without problems up to DAG epoch 329. We will increase this number significantly (e.g. 400 or more) in the next version."

Did you try the washer fix for cooling on your card if you have one?

I'm working on it, just need a couple of days more. AMD even did not release official ISA docs for RDNA yet...

Hey Claymore any input or any sort of work going on to get the new rx 5700xt mining on your platform? Thanks!

Yes I'm checking this card, but I need a few days to see what hashrate it can achieve.

same trouble now with nicehash

Switch mining to ETH (epoch 272 for now). I wrote about this few days ago. We need new version of claymore I guess

possible drivers trouble? use 18.6.1
14.6 same trouble
phoenixminer work without this trouble?

add
check again. trouble because ETC coin DAG epoch #281

Always download from official Claymore links. If not, sooner or later another noob start to cry here that Claymore is a thief.
[/quote]

That was the point it was the link from the OP, it didn't work. Likely something brief on MEGA's side. The VII is purring along, now to optomize this week-end. If I recall some years back there was a back-up link for downloading the miner, might not be a bad idea to reincorporate some such for increased Claymore revenue if the only current link remains intermittant.
