Okay, I can duplicate the problem, it looks like it's writing the executable files to the wrong folder!  I will fix this right now.

A lot of the time I can get my "tahiti 1-0" to run fine.. but then when creating a second worker for "tahiti 1-1", exact same settings.. it won't start. As in.. clicking "start" literally does nothing. Like the button is broken...

*shrugs*

That said.. this is a GREAT start so far.

I REALLY recommend that you mention the "point miners to localhost:8332" in the stratum proxy worker page. It is NOT obvious at all how it should be correctly set up and it greatly confused me until i reread the first post of the thread.

What miner?  Usually the program does nothing like that if the miner for some reason throws an error.  If you could dump the error from the miner here by dumping what goes out to the console, that'd be super helpful (the console logs all errors usually).  To see the console, select View --> Show console.

The other thing is that if it's a reaper instance, you can check the files that the GUI creates for the miner instance by opening the guiminer folder, and looking for a folder called "reaper-yourminername".  Within that folder should be reaper.exe and a bunch of other files.  A dump of the contents of reaper.conf and litecoin.conf might be possible; if those are the only two files in the folder, something has gone wrong.

Additionally, if you find a reaper folder within any folder other than the guiminer folder (eg /reaper/reaper-yourminername/) something has gone wrong.

Really cool man. This has been wanted / needed for a long time. Perfect for those people who have trouble getting their heads around the config files.

Great work

Most of the downloads @ multiupload.nl are not working for the windows binary. Do you have another link?

Nice, was waiting for this. Now litecoin will really take off.

The hashing speeds don't get updated nearly as often as the regular GUIminer. Is this something that can be fixed? It would sure make it easier to tweak/tune.

I can easily adjust this for cgminer in the future, but not reaper (which is generally slow in reporting to stdout).  I think I tuned the refresh rate down to 5s from the stock 1s when I was debugging it, that's probably why it seems slower.  I will correct that in the next update.

Okay, there are some bugs after playing with it for a while

1) Sometimes hash rate is off by 1 kh/s, I know what the problem is and will fix it in a future update.
2) The mining proxy reports more accepts but less rejects than the miners, I will have to figure out better regex matches for it later.
3) There was a bug that made new reaper instances fail that was hard to reproduce -- deleting all reaper folders except "./reaper/" fixed this.
4) The default port is for stratum, however the stratum proxy accepts connections on 8332.  I will make an FAQ later and put in how to use the stratum mining proxy, since it probably seems a little mysterious.
5) I need to figure out how to clean up the console for the mining_proxy.
6) Not a bug, but I want to add a stale percent column eventually.

I will probably support this for about 3 months and then leave it to the internet to take care of, hopefully by then any major bugs will be worked out. Smiley

Binaries here: http://www.multiupload.nl/N9GZPJL33S

Uploading the source now to https://github.com/theRealTacoTime/poclbm in just a second

Please let me know if there are any bugs or other weird things going on

It won't work on Unix without some modifications, but it should be okay on windows

Just need to code the part for the mining proxy now.  Gonna take a break, need food.

Interestingly that I worked on the project, which called as "pocllm".  Cheesy It was the poclbm fork for scrypt, but I stopped working with it after ckolivas released cgminer with scrypt support. Roll Eyes

Just what I was looking for - there will be a few LTC heading your way shortly.

Thanks!

Update for today, reaper and cgminer work.
todo: make mining proxy work (easy), install defaults for every card
