Don't forget to read API-README - it contains a whole section at the end about using miner.php
That will give you a web interface to the API - reporting and changing cgminer settings.

Yeah I've been meaning to try and get that set up. I'll have to take a look when I get back to my miner.

That just means you don't have the API.class file in the directory where you are trying to run it

Ahh, I was wondering how that worked. I'm still trying to figure out the whole API thing.

Just succeeded in compiling 2.7.4 finally. Took me a while to figure out how to compile with ADL support. Tongue

Everything is running great so far and my WU has increased 0.4 from 2.7.3. I noticed one weird thing though; I tried accessing my pool info through the API and it keeps giving me this error:

Code:

Error: Could not find or load main class API

I'm not sure if this is because of something I missed when compiling though.

Edit: and thanks immensely for whoever this was

Thanks. Plan to once a stable release is out.

2.7.4 gets me ~10% less hashrate than all recent versions (including 2.7.1, 2.7.0 and 2.6.5 for fresh comparisons) on a 5870 with SDK 2.1 (ati-drivers 11.6) on Gentoo amd64.
Didn't test 2.7.2 or 2.7.3.

I always got less with cgminer on 5870s than I did with phoenix. Atleast that's how phoenix portrayed it, I'm not sure it was accurate.

2.7.2/3 will not even work on sdk2.1. It appears the kernel changes are not so great for sdk2.1. Oh well.

New unstable version: 2.7.4

Fixed some shit. Added some shit. Will only call it stable once it's tested by others.

What a rotten day Undecided

You really need some rest.

Stable? 2.7.0 has been fine for me!

Full changelog

I upgraded from 2.7.0 to 2.7.3. Two of my miners crashed w/o me noticing it.

On 2.7.4 now. First thing I noticed is the efficiencies are consistent now across my miners. Instead of some being way of the charts, and others just off the charts, now they are all off the charts like they are supposed to be.

All using local instances of p2pool.

M

Yep and true efficiency should be higher than ever.

2.7.4 is saying that it's 2.6.6 and it won't start properly for me.

Re-uploaded with correct binaries.

cgminer detects stale shares and does not submit them. However, there are pools which credits for stale shares. Is there an option how to force cgminer to try to submit all shares?

It eventually gives up even with submit stale if it has already tried sending them at least once. Otherwise you could end up with a billion shares waiting in the queue, out of memory and crash.

Thank you for all the time and energy you put into cgminer! Hopefully this will make the day a little less rotten:

Wow.. 2 was a lot for me, I'm guessing you pull in 10x what I do..

Yes it submits stale shares by default.
There is an option to stop it from submitting stale shares: --no-submit-stale
That change happened in 2.3.6 back on 29-April

It looks to me like cgminer has stale share submission enabled by default now. I know that some pools (like p2pool) tell cgminer if it should submit stales or not.
