Topic: How to mine on Linux Server with CPU - SCRYPT (Read 1701 times)
nevermind
Try "tail -f nohup.out" to see whether anything is being output.
thanx guys but i have problem. at 1 of new servers i got i get this error:
nohup: ignoring input and appending output to `nohup.out'
then the minign wont start at all
That's not an error message. It's just nohup telling you what it does. The miner should be running, and its output is being redirected to the file "nohup.out" in the current directory. That's why you don't see anything happening.nohup: ignoring input and appending output to `nohup.out'
then the minign wont start at all

guys thanx for replies! i didnt use screen i was just usisng the command i listed above. it works fine BUT if i close putty - it closes.
screen -r then shows nothing then. obviously i want it to keep working not die when i close putty.

did you try screen -r then shows nothing then. obviously i want it to keep working not die when i close putty.

Code:
screen -x mining
as i posted above?ok so screen without nohup will always be killed when i leave SSH yes?
also if nohup is used and i get back - and leave again - will SSH die or keep running
sorry for noob questions but im really not that good with linux
I use screen all the time without nohup, you just need to detach before pressing CTRL+C if not it would send the CTRL+C to cgminer... closing it and hence closing the screen session.also if nohup is used and i get back - and leave again - will SSH die or keep running
sorry for noob questions but im really not that good with linux
So, just press CTRL+A then D and it will return to normal ssh, then close your connection as you normally do.
next time you connect just type
Code:
screen -x mining
Let me know if this works for you ok so screen without nohup will always be killed when i leave SSH yes?

SSH will die, but the process with nohup signal will be running

Just put the command called "nohup" before the "screen", so it will look like this:
nohup screen -S mining ./minerd --url http://coin.pool.com:1234 --userpass user:password
The "nohup" is not actually an command, it is signal which tells the following command not to end when SSH connection exits.

and l;ast question..
hwo ot actually stop it if i want or change pool etc?

I would recommend using SCREEN so you can close the terminal and resume at any time.
a sample command would be:
Code:
screen -S mining ./minerd --url http://coin.pool.com:1234 --userpass user:password
So once it gets you inside that session, you can press “Ctrl-A” “d” and it will detach you from it.If you want to access it again:
Code:
screen -x mining
Hope this helps!!
u just press ctrl-c or kill cpuminer/minerd and if u wish to mine theres cryptopools.com dgc,tag and arg pool's 0 fee PPS with a block finder bonus, u wont find a better pool for those coins anywhere

wow thanx guys.
what about stratum, do after --url i put:
--url stratum+tcp://stratum.coinex.pw:9029 -a ?
cpuminer on windows has stratum in last version or that wont work?

I have ALOT of servers, i know they wont get supoerb hashrates but id like to mien some SCRYPT.
is there any simple guide to install some miner from root on centos or debian so i can use a bit of my power?
i was trying to find it but couldnt, everything i see is for graphical interfaces.
PS im not linux geek, need step by step guide

I had the same problem, found really good how-to: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/info-getting-started-with-litecoin-mining-info-62322
Yes that one would work nicely

When I get home from work I will make one real fast. You said Debian so I assumed that's what you wanted.
hey this looks great. the only problem is.. im on centos so those commands wont work!

Your best bet is this software. https://github.com/pooler. I use it at home and it is really simple to setup on Ubuntu server. This page will give you the step by step http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?topic=321.0. If you have issues dont hesitate to PM me.
