Don't know if this is a Minera bug of MobileMiner bug, but my SHA Minera rig in mobile miner displays the hashrate as Scrypt and not SHA.

It's a bug in Minera - the author is aware and indicated a fix would be coming in an update.

Is there a way to tell how long you have been on each pool? I want to make sure my mining switches to the donation and is actually doing it.

In the donation settings there is a link "View your past donations" to see when it started and how many minutes was running.

Otherwise, you should look at the un-parsed JSON RPC API output and look at the "Pools" section, but each miner has a different way to tell you when it started mining on that pool.

Code:
/index.php/app/api?command=miner_stats

Sweet.




Quick weird question for you. When I reboot minera or restart the miner, I end up with multiple bfgminers running at the same time. I can fix it with a combo of 'ps aux | less' getting the PID and then using 'kill' to destroy those PID's, but what could be causing this?

Hi michelem

My minera instance does not show correctly the uptime on dashboard. Just -0 - 0 -0 . I suspect that somthing wrong with start-time variable ( do not know how it's called exactly ) Where is this variable seatting and how it is called exactly to look on its value?

There are two kind of uptimes, one from the miner software and one from the system what are you talking about? If it's the light-blue widget on the top that's the miner uptime. Do you have a manual or image install? What miner do you use? Can you provide some info?

Thanks, I'll img the card, baker doesn't seem to work on OSX Yosemite yet. Will use another one from raspi pages

Thanks

It works fine with Yosemite here, but you can use any method you want, just flash and not copy the file.

Usually I'm pretty good at installing stuff, but I seem to be getting something wrong.

I'm a first time user and simply following the simple instructions on github and using the IMG.

I'm trying to use the simple method:

You can choose for a img file to put in your SD Card or for a manual install.

Image file (img) v0.3.6 (Recommended)

This is the Minera image file for Raspberry PI, you have only to download it and put in your SD Card.

I'm on OSX, and copied the minera-latest.img to an the empty 16GB SD card and then put it in my pi. But it never comes online...



You cannot simply put the img file on a SD Card, you need to flash the SD Card with the img file.
If you are on a Mac you can use the ApplePI Baker: http://www.tweaking4all.com/hardware/raspberry-pi/macosx-apple-pi-baker/

Download it, open, insert sd card, refresh list, select right disk/sd-card (pay attention!), click IMG to SDCard

ahh yes, just figured that must be the case.

OK   Shocked
I found the bug !!!!

I don't know why, script seems to be good but when I made "install_minera.sh" or "upgrade_minera.sh"
system files where modified , and there is a mistake into file

/etc/cron.d/minera:
Code:
-e */1 * * * * www-data php /var/www/minera/index.php app cron
-e is enough

I removed it for having :
Code:
*/1 * * * * www-data php /var/www/minera/index.php app cron

then sudo /etc/init.d/cron restart

And Abracadabra !!! my hashtable are working and everything working !!

So after test , in a bash file , I tried this

Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo -e "Adding cron file in /etc/cron.d\n-----\n"
echo -e "*/1 * * * * www-data php `pwd`/index.php app cron" > test.txt

result in test.txt:
-e */1 * * * * www-data php /var/www/minera/index.php app cron

So i think is last echo package was bugged not realy minera...



Can you tell me where you installed that Minera system? I think you are using a manual install, can I know the right operating system you have? I think you have a Linux/Unix version that has a different shell, so the "-e" for the command "echo" is misinterpretered. It's not a Minera bug, I think you are usign a non-debian OS while Minera is compatible only with debian-like system.

Glad you figured out the wireless.

As far as running the U2 and Gridseeds together, technically you can, however they wont all be visible in the Minera Dashboard. The process is exactly the same as what I listed a few pages back, where I ran my Gridseeds in dual mode: you have to run 2 separate miner instances.

Should be a bit easier for you, if you intend to run the Gridseeds in just Scrypt mode, and the U2 in SHA.

Use CPUMiner for scrypt, and start a BFGMiner instance using the rc.local settings in Minera's Dashboard

Hi,

I just downloaded this nifty software and I cannot for the life of me, get my WiFi adapter (Ralink RT5370 chipset) working. I was able to get to launch the wicd-curses menu and follow the instructions to setup my WiFi adapter; however, it's not being detected. I know the adapter works, because I have literally just switched from Raspbian to Minera. Its been running maybe for 5 minutes. I would appreciate any help that can be provided.

Lastly, can you set one device for scrypt (e.g. Gridseed Orb) and others for Bitcoin (e.g. Antminer U2)? If so, how can you do this with Minera?




TL/DR: WiFi was not detected by wicd-curses and also want to know how to setup up Gridseed for scrypt and Antminer U2 for Bitcoin.

EDIT: forgot to use "sudo wicd-curses" - smh  Roll Eyes

I'm still on 0.3.5 but I must say that it's running very smoothly. I had some trouble with one rig but a reinstall did wonders.

I'm sure I've missed a post or two here but, is anyone running a Zues Thunder on Minera?  Care to share your commandline arguments?  I use BFG

*Edit* it's a X6 20MH

How many chips are on it? For any ZeusMiner ASICs with more than 6 chips you need to run with:

Code:
--set zus:chips=X

in order to get accurate hashrates.
96 from what I can read, I'm sure the speed is going to be diff from the 340 I run on my fury/bliz as it is a 2nd gen.
