Okay I had to save it to another directory to get it to save and I got this:

Thanks guys

Every time I save the config from BFGMiner I have to go in and edit out all these multiples of the temp-* values, because BFGMiner (which created the file) says there are too many values, and won't start. Huh

i have 12 usb eruptors but bfg only seems to see 9...... restart then i only picks up 7, restart picks up 10 with 2 giving errors?!

what size are your usb hubs?

If the psu is not big enough some erupters will not start

mmm u might have a point there. its a 10port with a 1000ma power. 2 low?

ed 2 running of pc no problems there

1000mA is good for 2 ports.

so i actually need 5A since each usb pulls 0.5A ?

How would this terminal code be properly put into the config file?
sudo bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334 -u -p -S all

And is the config file named bfgminer.conf?

Running the sudo command I just listed then I try to save out to conf file from the terminal window running bfgMiner but it does not seem to work...

That would be because sudo executes as root and would be saving it under root's directory. Try just running the bfgminer command without using sudo.

That doesn't sound correct. Saving the config from BFGMiner saves it in the current directory, right? Using sudo does not change the current directory, and it also does not change the environment - so even if it save to $HOME, it would still be your home directory, not root's.

Any idea with my issue luke?

Sounds like an OS issue.
Check that your /etc/ld.so.conf is correct, maybe rerun ldconfig.
If that doesn't help, mention here where the library is, the output of ldd bfgminer, and the content of /etc/ld.*

BFGminer is not really a Windows program, it is a DOS program.

It's really not. When compiled for windows it's a windows program, just one that doesn't use the GUI.

Quote

When Win x64 arrived it needed programs to be re-written into x64 not "ported across"

Only if they're not portable. This miner software was primarily developed on x86_64 and most software from the gnu/linux and related ecosystems is highly portable.

Got 3.2.1 running on Windows 7 Enterprise x86 last night. As soon as the Blade connected to BFG, BFG just quit/disappeared. Upon reopening BFG everything worked perfectly. Connected the second Blade, and again BFG quits. I've rebooted etc several times, and BFG is happy now.

To me, it seems BFG quits on the very first instance on a Blade connecting to the HTTP port (perhaps something craps out creating the virtual device?).

3.2.1 works OK on Linux, on the same machine (Intel NUC DCCP847DYE) with 4GB RAM and 30GB Kingston SSD).

Scratch that. First time the Blade connects at each reboot, BFG quits. It runs perfectly every time until the next reboot.

Blades aren't being restarted, just using the Switch Server function (the backup server are to a stratum_proxy running on my WHS.

I'll likely need the crash report (printed to standard error, or log file if one is configured) to do anything.

BFGminer is not really a Windows program, it is a DOS program.

No, BFGMiner is a fully native Win32 and Win64 application.
I don't think it's even possible to build it for DOS.

When I compile bfgminer on ubuntu and run configure the getwork proxy shows disabled. All the dependencies are installed. Any idea why its not working.

You probably just need to install libmicrohttpd-dev. If it's installed, the support should be enabled by default.

EDIT: If you DO have it installed, you should look through the configure log and see why it's failing to enable it.

It shows enabled. Now when I go to start bfgminer I get error

./bfgminer: error while loading shared libraries: libmicrohttpd.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It appears that it is installed in a place where the linker can't find it, if it is indeed installed anywhere. It's not clear to me how it could be found by the build, but not found at run-time.

On my system, it is installed as /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libmicrohttpd.so.10.

compiled it and libmicrohttpd-dev is newest version, but how can I see if getwork proxy is active?
TIA

Start BFGMiner with --http-proxy 8330 (or whatever port you want), then point your blades at the IP of the machine running BFGM, using the port you specified on the command line.

I did and I get the same error.

Just install from Git. Even a total linux noob like me can install it and have it going in less than 2 minutes, even from command line.

thx I have installed it from git...
