Just updated all my rigs to the latest version, and am thrilled that it will now do updates. How often does it poll for updates?

3.1.3 installed and wants to update to 3.1.4.

Yep windows. I'll do some investigating tomorrow to see if there's any states where it'll work.

I keep getting the "There is a new version of BFGMiner" popup. I click on the link, it appears to download (the small popup saying it's downloading from Luke JR's website) then the popup disappears, and my miner restarts, but then a few minutes go by and the "New version" message pops up again. This happens on all 3 of my rigs. Weird.

What OS? Windows? The only thing I can see that would prevent the update happening is if the files are in use. Clicking that just stops mining, downloads the zip file, unzips it over the existing Miners\bfgminer folder, and starts mining again.

What version does it say is installed? And what version is it trying to download?

Sounds like the bfgminer you have installed doesn't have scrypt support compiled in. You need to specify --enable-scrypt when configuring bfgminer and cgminer.

Mine doesn´t, I´m afraid  Shocked

/Applications/MultiMiner-1.1.19.app/Contents/Resources/Miners/bfgminer/bin/bfgminer -d?
Illegal instruction: 4

What sort of Mac? What version of OS X?

Can you try installing bfgminer from here:

http://homebrew.xgminer.com
http://howto.xgminer.com

And then running the same command without the directory prefix? e.g. in Terminal.app:

Code:
bfgminer -d?

Thanks a lot. I uninstalled any other miner including MultiMiner 1.1.19 and set up 1.1.20. All clear.

Impressing tool Smiley

Looks like your config file for bfgminer is messed up. Rename it or remove it and rerun the command:

Code:
mv ~/.bfgminer/bfgminer.conf ~/.bfgminer/bfgminer.conf.bak
/usr/bin/bfgminer --scrypt -I D  -o x:y:0 -u x -p y -d 0 -d 1 --api-listen --api-port 4028 --api-allow W:127.0.0.1 -T

no I have this with x and y written because there have been my login data...

Gotcha - either way that is being returned by bfgminer. Please run the exact command that is returned in the call stack and you should see that bfgminer is returning that same error. Is that the case?

MultiMiner doesn't pass "-o x:y:0 -u x -p y" to the miners - I'm assuming you put those into the settings for miner arguments? Try removing those.

Bfgminer doesn't like the arguments you are supplying. You would see the same error running it directly:

/usr/bin/bfgminer --scrypt -I D --scan-serial all -o x:y:0 -u x -p y -d 0 -d 1 --api-listen --api-port 4028 --api-allow W:127.0.0.1 -T

too bad
in my Ubuntu LTS I have configured all and after starting ~20 sec it disapears always Huh

You should be left with a callstack on the command line. Can you copy & paste it here? Preferably using the .Debug.zip download.

Okay folks - v1.1.20 is now available on the Github Releases page. This has a pretty nice set of changes:

  • Added a Notifications feature - notifications can be dismissed or invoked
  • MultiMiner will now automatically check for and notify of mining engine updates
  • MultiMiner will now automatically check for and notify of updates to MultiMiner itself
  • Added the option to use the Erupter specific driver when using bfgminer
  • Added a Quick Switch menu to quickly switch all devices to a specific coin
  • Miner downloads on OS X will now automatically fetch the latest version
  • Improved formatting of values in the History window
  • MultiMiner should no longer (wrongly) prompt for MobileMiner credentials



Enjoy!

I tried both miners, letting MultiMiner download and install them and started the app first directly from Downloads, then from Programs. Try to start the miner in a Terminal next.

No need to move the app. I just wanted to know where it was so I could give direction.

Open Spotlight or Applications and launch Terminal.app and type the following:

Code:
/Applications/MultiMiner-1.1.19.app/Contents/Resources/Miners/bfgminer/bin/bfgminer -d?

The path is specific (that's if you dragged the app to Applications) and the version is specific as well, that's if you downloaded 1.1.19. Let me know the output of bfgminer. Mine looks like:

Code:
/Applications/MultiMiner-1.1.20.app/Contents/Resources/Miners/bfgminer/bin/bfgminer -d?
