Topic: GUIMiner-scrypt: A GUIMiner fork for mining scrypt chains - page 8. (Read 993989 times)

Hey guys. I'm a complete newbie to mining and this seems like a nice miner to get acquainted with. I downloaded it and tried running guiminer.exe but it pops a dialog box saying "See the logfile C:\pathname\guiminer.exe.log for details".
I opened the log file and it says...
ERROR:root:Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "guiminer.py", line 3085, in run
  File "guiminer.py", line 2457, in __init__

Any way to get this to go? Any and all help would be appreciated.

Hi guys, i have the following problem.

After 2-3 days of mining my system is running out of memory, this happens on all 3 of my mining rigs. Each system is running windows 8.1 where 2 rigs have 4 gigs of ram and 3rd rig has 6 gig.


Anyway to solve this?

I can run it but cannot see   main window of guiminer.exe
I have problems on my new OC with win8.1
I noticed that in guiminer.log is perhaps possible to write all things but fields are in different order.
Dont know what could be the problem I checked antivirus and firewall but found anything
when I run guiminer.exe it hides into main toolbar and when I click on it it hides away. I can see it among running programs but dont see the window so I cannot write into fields. how can I solve it?

I tried to download and extract and run it on another PC with win8 which has the same antivirus (but 4 years old GPU) and it runs and it is visible - do you think, when I fill all fields and than excahnge guiminer.exe on new PC it will be OK? or do I have to take from another computer (where guiminer.exe runs in order) more files like guiminer.log or even whole folder?
update#1
 I tried restart PC, I replaced all old files with files from different PC, I tried to download latest Bitcoin QT (because I saw some links to bitcoin qt in guiminer.log ) but nothing helps - when I run it, I can only see it as icon in taskbar when I press ALT+TAB, I go through applications but when I choose guiminer.exe I dont see anything - is it problem of Windows 8.1? or shall I download something like .net or something to see it??
update#2
WTF
the only thing which I discovered after one hour of attempts is, when I make right mouse click in taskmanager (or what is the right name?) and choose maximize window I can finally see it and when I minimize it then it dissappears again. Holy shit.  
hope it helps someone and maybe someone helps me to solve this issue better.

and please could you explain me where this application saves settings? somewhere to Win-registers? because I extracted version 0.04 on new HDD for data which I bought in autumn but on old PC where I tried to run some previous version maybe 0.02 in February or March on coinotron - and once I opened 0.04 it was pre-filled with coinotron, my previous worker and password (which is btw still visible in guiminer.log despite I rewrote this with new worker from a new pool. (and when I put this version on new PC to try if I see application window it was prefilled with new pool data - I dont understand)....
............I answer myself-maybe not precisely on 100%- because I can see not many people are reading this thread - it is in C:\Users\xxusernamexxx\AppData\Roaming\poclbm/poclbm.ini - what can be seen if I choose save settings

but the main thing - from GPU defaults pop up menu I can choose (as highest option??) only "7970-high usage" - but I invested into R9-290 4Gb -  but this damn application found correctly only my i7 4930k in the field "device" - but I would prefer to mine with GPU not CPU.
Or do you think, is it possible to mine simoultaneously - once with GPU and make second worker on CPU??
please recommend me some forum where are these issues with R9 290 correctly explained - unfortunately I cannot find any usable thread - thanks

Hi guys, im trying to setup my R9 280x in Guiminer Scypt Alpha, with the following settings, gpu threads 2, intensity 13 and TC 8192, but in the console is says that Thread 1 being disabled.

Anyway to fix this?

maybe the port is blocked by your provider?
Mining bitcoins uses a different port to connect to pools over

every coin uses a different port. since your mobile provider as a connection point - i would check if ports are open first.

Hallo to everybody

I'm trying to use GUIMINER on my Dell XPS 16 with core i7 QM720, 8 gb Ram, Ati radeon mobile 4670 HD and windows 7 64 bit.
I've installed latest Catalyst and openCL drivers, and I've checked that openCL is ok.
I'm connected to internet with an HTC diamond as a modem, and I had no problem to mine bitcoins with this GPU and the block erupters.

I'm trying several pools, several coins, but I can't connect to anyone!


I've tried stratum and not, a lot of parameters but the answer of the program is always "Starting.....Connecting...." but NOTHING appens!
WHY???



I want only do some test before the delivery of my next desktop with 4X 7950 and core i7 4930k 32gb quad channel ram...

thanks to everybody who will help me!

Hi

Im running v.02 and use the failover-only flag in the extra flags field as below

--failover-only -o world.wemineltc.com:3335 -u miner_name.g26950 -p x


hope this helps

Hi,

can anybody tell me, if it's possible to add a backup pool to guiminer-scrypt v.0.04?
And if it's possible, how and where can I add a backup pool to it?

Thanks,
Phil

Have u checked the LInk I posted?

Like there I just put the thread concurrecy higher... on 11200 (not with guiminer - i use cgminer) and the Card Clock setting are important too, but u might allready know..

"D:\LTC\cgminer\cgminer.exe" --scrypt -u USER -p PASSWORD -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I 13 -g 2 -l 1 --thread-concurrency 11200


CGminer 3.1.0 running steady on 748kh/s 78.0C  - since 3 days

R9 280X
Core Voltage: 1131
Core Clock: 1080
Memory Clock: 1500

So I put down all values heres, with teh setting on wiki I never get that high...

Hope that helps!

I'm using this software to mine with a Sapphire R9 290, but I'm only getting about 495 khash/s, with thread concurrency 8192, worksize 256, vectors 1, intensity 13, GPU threads 1 and GPU Defaults 7970 (low usage). I'm getting more with my Sapphire 7970 (about 610 with the same settings except GPU threads 2 ). Could someone please help me? I'll gladly make a donation if my hashrate increases.

Do I have to use CGMiner to get any decent hashrate (I have tried it but I get the same kind of pathetic results, as I don't know how to configure it properly).

I too am getting the same error ... tried reinstalling the whole os too but keep getting the same error.

I really apprciate alle the work that the thread op put in the guiminer - but for me cgminer on its own just works much better, found some great setting here

https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=7534.0

For dummys - just copy*paste .bat - try & error  - it cood be so easy

And all is running on highest "possible"level...

When I open the program, it instantly crashes after a few seconds and I get the "guiminer.exe has stopped working" window. Any idea why?

This is on a fresh install of win7 64bit, and I've tried many driver and APP SDK revisions. The video card is a HD 5870 that's confirmed to work on another machine. Any help is much appreciated.

Hey ! I need some Information and for sure Help!

Whats Wrong with the Intensity Settings? and/or mining_proxy.bat settings?

My System:
Win7
I7 3.07GHz
16GB Ram
R9 280X Vapor-X

Setting: (GuiMiner -inkl. the cgminer 3.1.0)

cgminer.exe" --scrypt -u USER -p PASWORD -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I 14 -g 1 -l 1  --thread-concurrency 8192

As higher I set up the Intesity as less or no Shares I get: Here a list

Intesity     Khash     1Share        2Share         3Share          4Share         5Share       6Share         (Time to the next share)
14            423        0:10sek.     2:00Min        1:00Min         3:20Min        1:20Min                                 
16            495        2:00Min      7:00Min        3:00Min         5:00Min        3:30Min                                 
18            590        6:00Min      5:00Min        5:00Min         2:00Min        3:00Min      3:00Min
20            639        5:00Min      I gave up after 15 Minutes!

No Stales at all!

Any Idea why I get this bad result in Share on higher Intensity?

Is that normal?

mining_proxy.bat:
The mining_proxy.bat show 90% = False
And why the mining_proxy shows pool.itzed.ru:3333 ? Whats that mean?

Coinotron Result is worsest, best count there is less than 100khs...Dont have this phenomena on cudaminer (another PC) , there is the count correct..mhh..

On Wiki the Card do 769 with some tweaks - but first I thought to resolve that issue.

Thanks a lot!

Good finds but let's not freak out just yet as they're most likely false positives. I tried running the entire folder through Virus Total but it won't accept a folder so I ran it through Malwarebytes and returned;


They're coming back as potentially unwanted programs, not actual viruses. A lot of mining tools seem to be getting reported as false positives.
I then ran those two files through Virus Total.

mining_proxy.exe has 3 hits but only as a pup.
cgminer.exe had a whopping 31/46 hits! Most do not say it's a virus (Kaspersky even says, "not-a-virus:RiskTool.Win32.BitCoinMiner.cpc"), just a Bitcoin tool but a few are coming back with it as a trojan but I believe this is because they don't bother to distinguish between pup and actual viruses (never going to bother using AV software from a company like that). I wouldn't worry too much but it would be nice to hear from the author.

Attention everyone!


Don't download the software from:
sourceforge.net\projects\scryptguiminer


There seems to be a stealing trojan in it!
The versions from the first post in this thread seem to be ok.

Hello.
Is anybody can share with me a settings of Gui miner for Radeon 290X?

It gives only 500-530 kh\s. I heard that it should be around 1000 kh\s.

Using MSI AB Beta 17 for monitoring. Still there is no voltage control in any software for this card.

Here is the output of one of my batch files.  I downloaded the new v.04 that is on page one of this thread.  
Windows 7

cmd returns this:  
date: started cgminer 3.1.0

started cgminer 3.1.0
probing for an alive pool
network diff set to 99.8m
long-polling activated for http://localhost:8332/lp

Then the windows error "cgminer.exe has stopped working" comes up.  
I have the stratum protocol working and it says connected (on the gui) to the pool.  

EDIT: here's the picture

Ok, having a super strange problem...

Have a new setup with 1x 7990. Installed AMD drivers (latest), fired up guiminer. I have this sucessfully installed on 6 other computers, no issues. This is the only one with a 7990, so I'm guessing something there is causing the problem..

When I start-up guiminer, on my 7990, gpu #2 immediately goes to 100% usage. There are no pools on autostartup (or even entered into guiminer, for that matter). No settings yet. Just a fresh install. Shut down guiminer, #2 goes back to 0% usage, so I'm certain it's causing the problem.

Any thoughts??

 RE: I'm having some troubles getting my 5970's and 6950's to work.


 My 1st suggestion is to try mining at another site to get your cards working properly.

 My 2nd suggestion is to visit the link below to figure out what may be the better settings for your cards.
