Anyone ever had this happen?

I had left miner running for a few hours, checked the console, everything looks fine, im getting my normal hash rate, shares updating etc.

I check my pool balance, it was the same as few hours ago. i check the dashboard, it shows 0 hashrate, yet miner is still mining, GPU doing calculations, jobs updating etc.

I restarted miner now its back to normal.

@Claymore,
I am trying to solo mine ETH fork using Parity node . It works well with GetWork protocol, but since 1.6 Parity offers Stratum protocol support. I was unable to configure your miner to work using Parity stratum. All ESM modes (0,1,2) did not authenticate properly and returned protocol errors.
Does this miner support Parity stratum solo mining or not? If it does, how to configure it?

Ok I will check it and will probably add in next update.

Fail to plan, and you plan to fail.
I'm sure this is posted somewhere, but how do I run two instances of claymore 10.2? One for AMD and one for NVIDIA.  I tried the -platform and -mport but its still not working.

You do know that claymore runs amd and nvidia in a single instance perfectly fine?

Ran this on my old GPU for 24 hours straight, made about a dollar. (although best results from any miner Ive ever ran)

Would you guys just recommend not mining until I can get better hardware? I dont think a dollar even covers the electricity for the computer for 24 hours.

Make 2 copies of Claymore folder, set -di argument to select the GPUs for each instance and different -mport.

Claymore,
I have a minor bug report (or maybe an improvement suggestion) for the Web interface of EthMan.
The "More Details" button currently links to "http://:PORT/detail".
Can you please change it to just "/detail", omitting the :PORT ?
This will allow to maintain proper URL in case if special routing / DNS name is used to access the web page.
Thanks!

Ok, it will be improved in next update.

For Monitorig users

I just patch the Claymore parser, I had a bug with 10.2 because of log format change between 9.7 and 10.2

Weird firewall situation here..

So when I first ran this miner earlier today, I had a windows popup asking for an exception, at the time I was juggling text documents and accidentally clicked off the window and it just disappeared, I ran the miner and its started up fine and everything has been fine so far.

After moving moving files around and copying the entire directory and exe elsewhere, windows is asking me again because its treating it as a different application, but thats besides the point - it just made me remember about the firewall and why the miner is still running successfully without me making an exception.

thats the thing, i chose ethereum from the drop down box, i thought i turned off autoswitch

EDIT: this thread/people in this thread are awesome btw.

You have to make sure you are mining on the correct port. For ETH it is port 20535 on MPH.

ah ok, well i had ^that port as my dpool port, and the 17ish port for regport, i thought it would just occasionally mine other coins, but always mine ether. i see. oh well, i havent really noticed the miner having much downtime despite switching between coins.

EDIT I went ahead and switched it back though because im sure you guys know what youre talking about.

Still a little confused why the same info is in 3 files, bat, epool, and dpool, never know which one would take preference and in what order should it have diff values for the same settings in each of those files .

If you have an epool.txt it is the one used for ETH type coin. If you have the info in a bat start file it overrides everything. epool.txt is for main coin and dpool.txt is for second coin like SIA, etc. I just have the bat file start the miner and have it get all the settings from epools.txt. That way you can change it on the fly and then just hit "r" to reload the file and change pools using the same DAG files.

ooh ok yea thats smart... lol ive been restarted the whole damn thing like an asshole haha. ok yea ill add pound signs to nullify my other files and run all the settings from epool. thanks.

I used to do the same as you until my brother told me he was using the epools.txt. The settings are done differently but once you understand it a much better way to run the miner. I switched pools a few days ago and all I had to do was move lines around in the epools.txt around hit the r key and voila, mining on the new pool. I keep old one as fallback.

I'm getting a 100% reject rate on Sia with my vega cards.(stock settings)
RX4xx and RX5xx cards are fine.

Also I know this is a stupid question but should i use different workers for epool and d pool? or use same worker?

Worker names, on MPH, can help you see how each rig (or group of cards) is individually performing.
I use different workers just to differentiate between rigs, and it makes no difference to your hashrate what worker name you use.
To keep things simple just use the same worker name throughout if you have only one rig and are mining one coin (or even dual mining as you can view each coin pool separately) - hope this makes some sense.

yup, thank you appeciate it.

might switch to nano pool because of their actually chart analytics for mining results. I like seeing data visually.

But other than that this miner has been great so far, Im sure im not fully optimized, and I know mining with a single year old GPU isnt going to net me much,. but oh well right.

Nanopool is a good pool but they require a minimum of 0.05 ETH for withdrawal. With a single GPU would take a while. On the other hand, Mining Pool Hub only requires a 0.01 ETH minimum withdrawal. You might want to consider that with a single GPU.


thats true, 0.005 would take a while hmm

Its normal to sometimes be mining ethereum classic right?

If you are on the auto switching pool yes it is normal. They mine whichever coin is most profitable at the time for the algo you are mining. I prefer to stick with one coin and use the port for a single coin, whether it be ETH or ETC.
