Topic: MultiMiner: Any Miner, Any Where, on Any Device (Free, Open Source, Cross Platform) - page 151. (Read 827303 times)

Your assessment is pretty much dead on. I've seen similar things with cgminer and I've personally had better luck with bfgminer in this regard. MultiMiner is running "cgminer -d?", cgminer is telling MultiMiner there's a device #0 and then, some time later, cgminer is saying there is no longer a device #0.

So I went through my coin config and sorted everything out and I havent gotten that specific error since, but now I've been getting a new one that seems to be a whole different beast.

I'm not sure it has anything to do with multiminer at all, it seems CGminer is suddenly forgetting my devices.  I'm going to give bfgminer a shot and see if I get the same sort of errors.  Any input?

EDIT: just to clarify this is an error that appears after the miner has been running a little while.  So it does connect to my pools and my GPU and erupters successfully mine for a little bit, then crash.

Two L's

Edit: If you check the Process Log window from the Advanced menu it should show you the coin configuration that MultiMiner was trying to launch along with the executable name and arguments.

Edit 2: Got it. Grandcoin and Memecoin are both enabled and neither have any pools defined.

Sent it to nwools at g mail dot com from alpha492 at g mail dot com

I'm not sure if the xml document tells you but I have a couple of coins with empty fields which don't have the coin configurations enabled.

Sure if you could export your coin configurations using the toolbar and then email that to me (email is in my signature). From looking at the code it seems like MultiMiner is switching to a coin that has no pools defined (due to profitability changes if you have strategies enabled). This would occur after 15 minutes - the default interval which coincides with what you are seeing.

I have about every cryptocoin known to man configured with some pool or another.  I can send you the file for review if you'd like.

Like I said the first 15-30 minutes it mines away just fine, but sooner or later it just crashes.  I've even checked the hash rates on some of the pools websites just to confirm its connecting properly.

Thanks - if you feel like donating there are links for BTC, LTC, and hardware in my forum signature.  


So what this is saying is that MultiMiner launched Miners\cgminer\cgminer.exe with the arguments --scrypt  --shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 -d 0 --api-listen --api-port 4028 --api-allow W:127.0.0.1, -T and then cgminer was unable to start mining, returning the message Pool setup failed.

It looks like the issue is that there is no pool information being passed to cgminer. I'm not sure how that is possible but I'll look into the code. Do you have any pools configured for your coin? Click the arrow next to the Settings button and click Coins. Select your coin configuration on the left and you should have at least one pool configured on the right (but preferably two-or-more).

Arguments added to scrypt parameters under settings:

--shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -g 2 -w 256

--> I've been mixing it up trying to find combo's that work but this is the one that has run the most stable I think

Wow, Nwool your really on the job.  Really fast to help out for a free program, gimme a link and I'll be sure to donate percentage of my mining seeing as your program probably increases my average profitability by 200% thanks!

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

What crashes? MultiMiner? If so please post the full error text (using the Debug build if possible).

First of all, great app I love it so far.

Second, I'm probably inputting my arguments into the wrong area or something but without changing anything I get a hashrate of 15 on my HD 7970 (painful).  When I add arguments to the scrypt field under settings for about 15 minutes I can get a great hash rate then it crashes.  Its like clockwork, I've gone through just about all the comments since pg 16 but either no one is nub enough to have this problem or no one has had it yet.

Anyone have any ideas?

Great updates

Thanks

Visualization of the awesome:

Ah ok cool!

Saw that entry in the Process Log and assumed it's auto as you said.

Thanks Nate.

It's part of the option under Settings to restart sick/dead/etc/etc miners. The above is now included in that check.

Edit: This will show on the Process Log as "Subpar hashrate" when restarting mining.

Where the setting to enable this:
Optionally restart miners when a device's hash-rate falls below 50% of its previous average
Or is it auto?

Thanks a million for these updates!

Such a great dev... Thank you very much.

Awesome! Keep up the great work.

Want to be notified on your mobile device when a pool goes down? Or get an email alert when a new version of bfgminer is available? 

Version 1.3.37 of MultiMiner is available now as a prerelease. It includes the following changes:

• Optionally push MultiMiner notifications out to MobileMiner for mobile and email alerts
• Optionally restart miners when a device's hash-rate falls below 50% of its previous average
• Make using HTTPS with MobileMiner optional (enabled by default)

I mined it a bit but just like you said, Coinchoose is not always right. As for the connection problems, it is true that it is a problem with the pools servers and not related to Multiminer. It took me 4 pools total (1 main + 3 backups in orders of fee %) before Multiminer finally stopped telling me the famous "All pools down" once in a while.

This is what happens in MobileMiner when there are no machines found when refreshing. It shows the Welcome screen with information on how to submit statistics to MobileMiner.

I just uninstalled & reinstalled the MobileMiner Android app on a couple of devices and had no issues signing in and viewing my machines.

If the problem persists, please PM or email me your MobileMiner application key.
