Does anybody have this error?

System.Exception: Miner keeps exiting after launching - retried 5 times. Exit code 1.
   в MultiMiner.Xgminer.Miner.EnsureProcessStarts(Process process, ProcessStartInfo startInfo)
   в MultiMiner.Xgminer.Miner.StartMinerProcess(String arguments, Boolean redirectOutput, Boolean ensureProcessStarts)
   в MultiMiner.Xgminer.Miner.Launch()
   в MultiMiner.Engine.MiningEngine.StartMining()
Thanks - I'll add some additional logging to this that should sort out what is causing the problem. cgminer or bfgminer doesn't like the arguments being passed to it is my guess.

Tried to run this just with the flag -I 18

Crashes every time
If I run it with stock settings it defaults to intensity d

Any ideas?
Can you be specific about what is crashing here? Keep in mind that this app just passes these flags on to cgminer and bfgminer, so it shouldn't run any differently than running those with -I 18.

If you can give me some more details on the crash though I'd be happy to try to help address it. Is there an error dialog? A callstack? Anything in the Event Viewer in Windows? What coin are you trying to mine? Thanks in advance!

Also is there any way to set different intensitys for different cards?
Only if they are mining different algorithms. I can add it as a suggestion though.

Sorry for the bad language.
1)On one machine works like a version 1.0.8 and 1.0.9. (picture 1)
2)At the other does not work 1.0.8 and 1.0.9
2a)Old data with http://www.coinchoose.com/ (picture 2)
Why not changed at Difficulty/Price/Profitability? Huh
Please create a brief screencast that illustrates this using Jing. There is a step I am missing because this all works well for me on several different rigs. Thanks!

So in version 1.0.9 does not update the picture 2? Figure 1 A version 1.0.8
I'm sorry I do not understand your question. You said 1.0.9 works on one machine and not another, and you posted two screenshots. I assume one is from one machine and one from the other machine. The screenshot without the Enabled column is not 1.0.9 though. If it were 1.0.9 there would be an Enabled column in the grid.

Let me know if I've misunderstood your question. I appreciate you taking the time to post the screenshots and feedback, but maybe you have a friend who has a stronger grasp on English that could help explain the problem a bit more clearly? I want to address your issues but am having a hard time understanding the problem.

Edit: Specifically, for anyone having an issue, unless it's very basic the following format would help me a lot:

1) I started the program
2) I did A, B, C
3) I expected Y
4) Instead I saw Z

Include screenshots and screencasts where necessary using a free tool such as Jing. Also include text from the API Monitor (CTRL+C, CTRL+V) where appropriate. Alternatively, if you know C# you can fork the source code on Github and attempt to address the issue, submitting a pull request back to me.

nwoolls Very good program.But I have a problem on one machine MultiMiner 1.0.9.On one computer, everything works, the second is not.
Maybe you know what's the problem?
One of those screenshots is not 1.0.9. Version 1.0.9 has that Enabled column at the start of the grid. The UI bug should be fixed in 1.0.9. It was just a display issue where the coin stats weren't refreshed in the grid when clicking Start.

Now that you added the ability to shut off one or more devices I was thinking, with certain coins' profitability getting stuck on coinchoose from time to time it would be nice to have the option to turn off mining a certain coin individually.
Sounds reasonable. I'll add an Enabled toggle for each of the coin configurations for the next update. Thanks for your feedback!

v1.0.9 is now available. It has minor fixes and improvements in addition to:

  • Added the ability to disable individual devices
  • Remember the visibility of API Monitor between sessions
  • Fixed the wrong coin stats showing in some instances after starting mining

This should address the following requests & issues:

Is there an option to mine with only some of the cards in a system if you have mine the most profitable coin set?  I wonder because I have 4 GPUs in my main rig and like to only mine on 2-3 of them sometimes and game on the others.

Hello is it possible to turn of one of the GPU's?
Actually im testing your application on Laptop, where are two graphics cards
Radeon 7600M and Radeon 7640G, i would like to turn off first one somehow

nwoolls API does not update the data http://www.coinchoose.com? Sets the old data about the coins.

and another this could api monitor appear straight after start? or it should be an option start api monitor on start on/off

Keep the great feedback coming and tell your friends! Grin

Awesome, another great update nwolls.  This just continues to build into an even better program.  Now that you added the ability to shut off one or more devices I was thinking, with certain coins' profitability getting stuck on coinchoose from time to time it would be nice to have the option to turn off mining a certain coin individually.  I mean something where you would be able to select which coins out of the ones you add that you want to have included in the most profitable strategy.  I know tonight with noirbits getting stuck at a really high profitability I spent a fair amount of time mining it for not.

and isn it possible to see the cgminer to run in separate window, like is running cgwatcher an cgimer separately?
i mean now its running hidden in processes and i dont see that window.

and another this could api monitor appear straight after start? or it should be an option start api monitor on start on/off
Thanks for the feedback. I'll add both of these in the next version.

thanks for reply

with that intensity, this is my whole line from XgminerConfiguration.xml
--thread-concurrency 3008,3008 --intensity 4,14 --worksize 256 -g 1 --auto-gpu  --lookup-gap 2 --temp-target 70,73 --gpu-fan 25-85 --auto-fan

but you dont need to care about this, i can live without this, becasue, when i put multiminer on my rigs, i want run all of the gpus

now with that auto start, sorry for confusing, it is working correctly.

and what about this?

Hello is it possible to turn of one of the GPU's?
It's not possible while you have the app set to mine the most profitable coins, as you've discovered. It has been requested by another user and I'll add that for the next version.
Also i've set the intensity to 4, but it is showing 8, but i think, this have something to do with cgminer by itself.
Let me know on that one. I am setting -I in the app settings myself for the Scrypt and SHA256 parameters. From the order of your devices you should be using -I 4,14
and other thing, when i set, let say start mining after 30seconds after windows starts, it count to 30,
it wont start by itself, i need to press start manualy.
Hmm first I've heard of that issue. Can you double-check the issue? If it keeps happening, open %appdata% in Windows Explorer and zip up the MultiMiner folder and post that or send it to my username at gmail.com. Thanks!

is it possible to turn it off somewhere in xml config?
I was looking for that, but i did not find anything like that.

I can turn the graphic card off , just when I dont tick the Automaticaly mine the most profitable coin(s)
and then i dont choose any coin for that GPU, but then it will not going to switch to another coins when
profitability on other coin will be higher.

For now it is all, if i found something else, i'll write then.
Thank you
