Just had 2.10.0 fail to failover on me. My configured pools are:

stratum+tcp://us1.eclipsemc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://us2.eclipsemc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://eustratum.ozco.in:3333
http://api.mining.cz:8332

api.mining.cz doesn't exist. use api.bitcoin.cz instead. Or, preferably, "stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333"

I've just made cgminer 2.10.0 at Raspberry Pi to drive my Cairnsmore CM1.
Looks like it performs a bit better than the same version on Win7 at i7-2600K.

Still seeing backup pools that use stratum+tcp URLs detected as down by cgminer (2.9.6)

e.g. neither of these seem to work right as backup pools :

stratum+tcp://us3.eclipsemc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://eustratum.ozco.in:3333

However specifying them as http (even though they're not) seems to work:

http://us3.eclipsemc.com:3333
http://eustratum.ozco.in:3333

(Note I only see this problem for backup pools - specifying stratum+tcp for my first pool seems to work fine)

roy

Yeah, not ideal, is it? Just get rid of *any* prefix and let cgminer figure it out. eg eustratum.ozco.in:3333

I think Con answered this here, unless there is something different

Yes, this appears to be something different, although it could well be related. The original problem with stratum+tcp:// URLs was fixed.

This code doesn't seem to be working for me in the config file. It sticks to mining on pool 0 even though there are 5 connected. I'm running the program directly from the cgminer-fpgaonly.exe file.

Code:

"balance" : true,

Any ideas why?

My issue is resolved with the latest version. Working how it should now. I'm very pleased.

Same thing happened to me on 2.9.6 I think it was. Eclipse US1 server was never marked dead. No idea why.

EDIT US1 marked dead for me currently

EDIT2: Clear as mud I had this problem a while ago. Not today. I could look back and find it. But I didn't as the 2.10.0 que is a redo and likely isn't functionally the same as before as it is serial rather then parallell asynchronus.

stratum+tcp://us1.eclipsemc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://us2.eclipsemc.com:3333
stratum+tcp://eustratum.ozco.in:3333
http://api.mining.cz:8332

us1.eclipsemc.com appears to have gone down (for stratum at least) and cgminer displayed the following:

Lost 19 shares due to stratum disconnect on pool 0
Pool 0 stratum+tcp://us1.eclipsemc.com:3333 not responding
Pool 0 stratum share submission failure

....and then nothing more (and no failover). The top of the screen still showed

Connected to us1.eclipsemc.com with stratum as user ...

And the pool management screen showed all four pools as dead.

Restarting cgminer, it now shows only pool 0 dead, pools 1-3 alive, and is happily mining on pool 1.

What kind of computer had a bootloader like that?

i first ran across it in win 8 and thought it was MS. but tried installing linux on my 3 miners with win 7 and it also blocked me. now i think it is the bootloader program.

Security setting in BIOS?

bios is blocking the usb boot.

I'm saw the same thing today, simultaneous crash on all rigs upon Stratum detection of a new block.

Thought it was Windo'hs Update at first, but that's disabled on rigs that still crashed.

Putting half the farm on 2.9.6 and half on 2.9.7-1 until it's sorted.

Yeah I noticed the same. All of mine crashed at the same time upon detection of a new block.

BTW, thanks ckolivas for the debugger. I'll be sure to give that a go in case any of my rigs crash again.

Sure. Unfortunately 9 times out of 10 I don't get useful information from windows crashes even with the debug version Undecided

* ckolivas keeps wishing people would stop using the windows version knowing he may as well wish the sky weren't blue.

except that, guess what? my bootloader locks me out of installing linux!

It would appear that the latest version of cgminer still has no provision for mining different devices as different usernames and I need to run multiple copies of cgminer to accomplish this. Is this understanding accurate?

You could use the balance setting to evening send shares to all pools in your list.

Actually, my interest is to have the pool tell me when one of my miners is not producing.
Currently (unless I run 2 instances of cgminer) when one of my devices stops, I get no notification.

But thanks for the suggestion

I'd report a bug, and in the meantime use the version that works.

Hello!
cgminer 2.9.7-1 works fine on one my rig, and doesn't start on second rig, both rigs with hd79xx cards.
The error message is:

Quote

[2012-12-13 20:22:02] Started cgminer 2.9.7
[2012-12-13 20:22:02] Error -1: Getting Device IDs (num)
[2012-12-13 20:22:02] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
All devices disabled, cannot mine!

I have tried to setup another version of graphics driver, another version of app sdk, disconnected 4 cards of 5, and I had this error message every time.
Cgminer 2.8.7, 2.9.6 and 2.9.7 work well on this rig.

He stated earlier that he's using Gentoo (woohoo!).

AFAIK, there are no native cuda kernels for cgminer.

I thought there were *nix versions of those utilities.

Didn't CGMiner used to have CUDA support?? Not that it matters this late in the game.

Yay for Gentoo! Cool

So yep, I am using CUDA.

Well, since your mining you would have to be using CUDA, correct?

GPU Caps should be able to tell you for sure, and maby GPU Shark.

He stated earlier that he's using Gentoo (woohoo!).

Run cgminer -n and what does that tell you for valid platforms? I'm assuming it will display (and when you're mining, actually using) your cuda runtime, but it will actually be executing opencl kernels. AFAIK, there are no native cuda kernels for cgminer.

And yes, when I first started getting into mining, I started on my brother's GTX9800, which is basically the same card. I got somewhere around 25-30MH/s, I don't remember exactly.
