Minera 0.3.6 is out!

* Updated miner binary files (BFgminer, CGminer and Dmaxl)
* Small fixes
* Added script to build miner

Image file is not available yet, give me a couple of days to build & upload it.

For everybody, I recommend you to run this commands to fix the Bash bug called Shellshock (new Minera image will be fixed but old one need to run this commands manually):

Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bash
Or (slower):

Code:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude -y safe-upgrade

How can i fix pool hashrate? And does that mean i have batch 1 zeus? It was supposed to be 2nd batch...




If you update the code , that should be fixed:

Code:
cd /var/www/minera
git pull origin master

Hey michelem,

Loving Minera so far, BUT, would be cool if i could dump the screen (cgminer process) out the composite port of the RPI B+ (thing works great for small miners).

thing is i am getting ready to mount all the miners and the rpi in a old cooler master case (big ass hunk of aluminum) and i can fit a small rca backup camera screen in the 5.25 bay, and was going to put the rpi in the 3.5 bays.

the monitor is my roadblock, and all i tried to *nix command wise is break the miner Sad

i know cgminer has a way to drop everything to a serial port, etc... but i don't know how shift it out the composite port.

or is there a way to have the cgminer screen be a default login screen for the rpi?


thanks in advance!

How do I update the bfgminer version that is running on minera?

Okay, kinda figured it out myself

Quote
#Update your Pi
$ sudo apt-get -y update
$ sudo apt-get -y upgrade --fix-missing

Install BFGMiner
$ cd /opt
$ sudo git clone https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer.git
$ sudo chown -R $USER:$USER bfgminer
$ cd ./bfgminer
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-scrypt
$ sudo ldconfig
$ make -j2

#How to update BFGMiner after installation
$ cd /opt/bfgminer
$ make clean
$ git pull
$ ./autogen.sh
#This will set BFGMiner to work only with BFL miners; see BFGMiner's ReadMe for other drivers
$ ./configure --enable-scrypt
$ sudo ldconfig
$ make -j2

#How to copy newly compiled BFGMiner to Minera
$ sudo cp /opt/bfgminer/bfgminer /var/www/minera/minera-bin

Nope, it's about a zero day exploit that needs addressing Wink

Pictsidhe, I'm not sure if this was a response for me so I'm better off asking.  
Is it for me & my password changing issues?  Thanks.

Hi all.

I'm having password changing issues outside of the Minera WEBUI.
In Minera v3.5 why am I not able to change the TUI password from the default of "minera" to something else? 
I used to be able to with previous versions upto v3.4 using sudo passwd command with no problemo. 
When executing the "sudo passwd minera" command I get the prompt to enter the new password twice, it then tells me: "passwd: password updated successfully".  I logout, log back in & it refuses to accept the new password. If I go back & try to log in with the default password of "minera" all is fine.  I've gone as far as re-downloading a new image of Minera v3.5 & reimaging it onto previously used & new 8GB SD cards.

Any thoughts?  Thanks.

I'm sorry but are you trying to change the WEB password with "sudo passwd minera"? That doesn't change the WEB password, that should change only the SSH/SystemUser password.

If you are trying to change the system password, then you are doing some mistake, it's not possible that doesn't work. May be are you changing the root password instead?
Try to login with user minera and the do only "passwd".



Hi Michelem.
I should of made it clearer.  I am trying to change the root/system password, not the WEB UI password.
I have tried what you suggested. The problem is that when I change the password either via SSH or at the console itself, after receiving a "password changed successfully" confirmation I log out & log back using the new password, no problem.  But if I reboot, the password is somehow being changed back to the default, "minera".

sounds really odd, had no problems changing my password here, might have done it when i was on 3.4 though, then updated to 3.5

Is there a way to slow down the new RBox 110g using Minera and CGMiner?. I can't find any info on the clock speed or chip count on the new miner. The error rates are way too high as it's running 111.54 clock which is causing an error rate of over 88%. I have not found any info on this units chip count or recommended clock. If someone has this info I would love to know the stock settings. For some reason BFG miner won't even see it. I would really prefer to use BFGminer if someone has the manual settings for that. THanks.

Im running 0.3.5 stable now for weeks. Currently running the most unstable part, being cgminer-dmaxl, in dual mode on Gridseed Orbs. Still going solid. Pools only switch when one goes down.

I've just got another A2 and am setting it up, I found it's startup file and it looks like it would be useful for minera to fix the double cpuminer instance problem. I can't find where minera starts cpuminer so I installed a kludge. Anyway, here's the a2 startup code:

#!/bin/bash
source /opt/scripta/etc/additional_paramter
cgminer=`ps -ef |grep cgminer |grep -v grep`
if [ "$cgminer" == "" ]
   then
   echo `date +"%Y-%m-%d %T"`" cgminer is not running, starting now..."
/usr/bin/screen -dmS cgminer /opt/scripta/bin/cgminer -c /opt/scripta/etc/miner.conf $AdditionalParameter --diff 8 --api-listen --api-network --api-port 4028 --api-mcast --api-allow W:127.0.0.1 --api-mcast-code minereu  --cs 8 --stmcu 0 --hwreset --no-submit-stale --lowmem

I've been using 0.3.2 since it's release, and haven't been following this thread since... Is the problem with instant pool switching on cpuminer solved? Is it worth upgrading? I've used almost all versions up to 0.3.2 and this is the one which runs more stable, without babysitting, so it would be pretty hard to change and lose some of that stability just for having the pool switching bug fixed...

Yeah, I had a very similar issue with Dmaxl,

Michelem showed me a file to edit, changing the formula that calculates the hashrate. It fixes the issue, however we figured out that mine also needed some extra fixes to display it in Gh/s as it was to do with SHA256 mining.

Possibly see it fixed in the next update. (Ive had to delay testing the last part of the fix as my powersupply running my RPi, usb hub, and 10 gridseed minis stopped working.. turns out it didnt die, just went into protected mode for a bit and wouldnt turn on.)

Will give it a crack and get back to Michelem so it can be fixed.



Awesome guys, well appreciated. Big thanks to you, Michelem and everyone involved!

When that gets fixed Minera will be absolutely perfect. Even now is BY FAR THE BEST performing/looking kit out there! Really loving it! and even has integrated mobile miner on top!!
