Topic: FeatherCoin Pool - Stratum - page 8. (Read 18608 times)

thanks for the update.  How soon before we can expect to see payout and share stats.

My concern as well is that I'm getting fractional FCs in my Wallet about every 5 minutes reporting as mined but I don't have any workers elsewhere.  Just the 3 at http://www.altpool.com.

The site is still really slow due to a number of bugs in the code and also that the server it is running on is not built for this type of system. I have dissabled some of the offending code for the moment but have not isolated all of the issues yet.

When you look at the header, you will notice some of the information is missing, this is part of the code i have disabled. The important things I have left intact for the moment while trying to fix the other issues.

As for your constant logging out, I cannot explain that unless you have something that is clearing your cookies.

I will try and get everything fixed as soon as I can; I cannot give a timeframe as I do not know how long each day i can spend working on this site and how deep the flaws run.


Thanks for trying to help explain You are correct, the server was a simple test box so see if stratum was working. I did not expect the number of users that have jumped onboard nor the amount of traffic this site is getting. As per one of my last posts, I have a new server on the way to help with this issue - combine that with some better coding (once i nut that all out ) then the pool will run a heck of a lot better than it currently does.

As you mention; mining appears to be unaffected, it is only the front end that has such a slow response.

the web server is slow.  probably due to unanticipated load.  FC became very popular over the weekend.  mining seems to be unaffected.  I get very little stale or rejects.

As to why your balance is 0.  The pool requires 120 confirmations.  Which is high right now but will go down over time.  SO it will take a while before the shares are confirmed and the coins paid out to you.  No need to worry.

Site is really slow, I can't see my own stats and my balance is still 0.0000000 after several hours of mining at >3Mh/s hashrate.

On top of that I'm constantly logged out when changing pages and I can only occasionally reach my account page.

Please tell me why this is and when we can expect to be able to view our own stats.

Server is now back online.

Server is now offline - doing a backup and then will increase the ram/cpu. Once completed (approx 20 mins) everything should be back to normal and hopefully more responsive

Hey everyone. I have just placed an order with another data center to get a better deal on a faster machine. This should help improve the response time of the site. In the mean time (will take approx 48 hours to setup at the data center) I am going to take this site down and do a temporary update. This should only take about 15 to 20 minutes, in which time all network connections (ie: website and mining) will be off-line.

I will be performing this update in approx 2 hours so please be prepared to temporarily switch to another pool.

Yes, the site is processing block updates and balance updates every 15 10 minutes now. This should be updating all accounts at the same time, so i would expect your business account to have updated. Please let me know the miner details (PM me) and I look into the problem for you.


Thanks - me too

Hope the website speeds up soon! Nice pool ^^

Is the site updating coins automatically now?  I ask because on my personal account it's adding coins as it's supposed to.  However on my business account I've had it on for nine hours or so now and nothing has been added.  Why the difference between the two accounts? (And to everyone reading this, I'm not worried about getting my FC, just wondering why the difference in accounts)

Running really slow.


Haven't fixed the stale calculation yet - sorry.


OK, so even after optimizing some of the code (still a lot more to go through though) I find (as do a lot of others) that the website is always very slow to load. I will be shopping around today to find a beefier server and once setup there, hopefully this issue will disappear.

This pool was originally just to test the stratum server was working, accepting shares and sending upstream for confirmations; well, that side of the test has been a huge success - and even with the front end lagging, it seems that the mining side remains unaffected which is another plus.

Now if I can get the front end running at a decent speed, I think I will have a reasonably stable pool; and then this will be able to be duplicated for any crypto based upon scrypt (ie: litecoin, feathercoin)

Thanks again for everyones support and please stay tuned to the front page of the site (and/or this forum) for news as to when the change over will occur.

+1 for this pool. pays out fairly and accurately, just mild website issues is the only downside.

Site is up and working as always.  Even when the site has been down, shares have still accumulated and paid out.  Thanks admin

Site down again

I haven't been getting many stales. Generally at about a %.3 stale rate

Round Shares: 40333 (14.4% stale) ?

Yes, it seems everything is VERY VERY slow. Though mining still keeps running fine. Let's wait...

Its running but has slowed down. Seems the server gives up when the owner goes to sleep 

So, is the site still down or just running incredibly slow?

I'd like to access my funds now ( or at least check my balance ). Please and thank you.

offline again?
