I loaded from kolivas-server

The funny is:
- 10 BFL's with 1 instance working
- 11 BFL's with 1 instance crashing
- 1x 8 BFL's and 1x 7 BFL's together with 2 instances working

@af_newbie
"-S bitforce:COMXX" crashing also with more then 10 BFL's

I will set up an 11-unit cluster with 1 instance of cgminer 2.3.6 when I get home later this evening and try to reproduce the issue you are having (if no solution or confirmation is found by then).

I am running Win7/64, not Win8/64, so if it works for me we cannot conclude much. But if I confirm a crash with 11 Singles on Win7/64 (as you've done on Win8/64) then it points to a problem with cgminer.

Tinua,

This is most likely an issue with your USB hub. I have 15 singles running on one instance of cgminer.

Best,
gigavps

Update: With ufasoft-miner no issue....working with 15BFL's in series including hot-swap......no crash!

Can you try with BFGMiner?

I try it bevor.
-S COM1 to -S COM8 working. But he allways say ICARUS found??
-S \\.\COMXX crash bfgminer.

Maybe we can talk about this more exactly in bfgminer-tread, later. Will make screenshot then.
I have now 11pm.

Tinua,

The error message is not very descriptive.
Check if Windows Error Reporting is enabled.

For Win7,
http://www.syschat.com/enable-disable-windows-7-error-reporting-5394.html

Not sure it might in the same spot on Windows 8.

Hope i find the right one!

Hi folks

If I connect more then 10 BFL's....cgminer crash down after 2 second? Huh

If I start 2 instances of cgminer with <10 BFL's ....cgminer run??
Any idee why?
System: Win8 x64, CGminer 2.3.6

Many thanks for help!

Post more details. Are you mining on GPUs or just BFLs? What crashes?
Do you have an exception? What is the exception offset?

Also, details of where you got the windows binary from?
(if you go it from anywhere but http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/cgminer-2.3.6-win32.zip ?)

I loaded from kolivas-server

The funny is:
- 10 BFL's with 1 instance working
- 11 BFL's with 1 instance crashing
- 1x 8 BFL's and 1x 7 BFL's together with 2 instances working

@af_newbie
"-S bitforce:COMXX" crashing also with more then 10 BFL's

Tinua, post a screenshot of the cgminer crash. It might give us some clues as to where the crash is occurring.

Gigavps, I believe you are running a Linux version ... I will confirm with a Windows 7 version later tonight. A hub issue cannot be ruled out, though. Good suggestion.

Here you go.

...
Thus with that code (above) the ordering naturally should be BFL first and ICA 2nd if you don't specify "-S bitforce:COM6" or "-S icarus:COM6"
...

Then the bitforce detection is broken as Tinua has reported.

Tinua try putting -S bitforce:COMXX

As my post Krak quoted above states, there is no Bitforce auto detection in windows ... yet.
(I haven't got my BFL yet either)

Kano, the user was not using auto detection.

Bitforce is checked first in cgminer (but not in that 'other' one) so I wonder if that might have something to do with it?

So although your suggestion makes it clear what it is doing, it won't make any difference.

Why do you conclude that? I don't see where Tinua has reported broken bitforce detection. The only reference to any FPGA in Tinua's posted output is this:

Code:

[2012-05-01 19:41:07] Found 0 ztex board(s)

As per Kano's explanation of how detection works, the above reference to ztex is not unexpected and does not indicate an error. FWIW I get the same startup message for my Single setup (also using --disable-gpu), except cgminer doesn't crash after that.

3. Windowsbox coming:

Code:

cgminer1.exe not working anymore.....blablabla

Means....cgminer crashing

Put a screenshot of that message box. The blah, blah part is what I'd like to see.

The detection of PGAs is something that should be fixed. Users should be able to say, I want these com ports to use BFLs, and the other ones to use
ZTEX or Icarus.

I think that might be something luke_jr can add to bfgminer as it looks like cgminer is blindly trying to guess what is connected to COM ports.
(and failing). Putting device type in the config file for each COM port would speed up detection and hopefully eliminate these issues.

Doing BFL detection on ZTEX or Icarus is just asking for it. Users know what they have connected to each port, so let them add that in the config file.
