lots of shit

Your config file would be nice to know, as well as any modifications to your phoenix (i dont recall being able to label vid cards like that, mine only show like [cl:1:1])

Also may I suggest using driver 11.12 or 12.1 (avoids cpu bug with multiple gpu) as well as installing 2.1 sdk and mining on that instead of 2.5 (gain 3-10mhash per gpu depending on number of shaders and core/mem frequencies)
Can get 2.1 SDK standalone @ http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9768004/ATIStreamSDK_dev.msi

Also have you tried other pools? I see you got disconnected from a server, might be a pool or isp problem. Eligius has been rock solid for me last few months, you can test it by connecting your miner to http://address:[email protected]:8337 where "address" is your bitcoin address. Doesn't require a signup or fee or anything, just change your backend and good to go. Mine is

Code:

backend = http://1CxcPP8FVktppy4PHTYJKnZFqQeyZ3jArb:[email protected]:8337

Hi, I have a problem with phoenix2 (also with betas too).

I have 5 rigs with 3x58xx each of them. Today this happens with three of them. Previously with beta versions was the same - some rigs work, some - not.
Here are the logs:

Sorry for the long post, I don't see a spoiler.

I'm not sure if this is related to my build or not, but on my Windows PC, Phoenix 2 will just exit after about a minute of mining. No errors, it just stops.

Any ideas? And what do you want me to try...

Try running Phoenix with the help of a batch file; add a pause to it.

Code:

phoenix.exe
pause

The pause will allow you to see the output from Phoenix before it shuts down.

I just ran it directly from command line instead of using a pause...

It submits a couple shares, then just goes back to the cli asking for input...no error

THIS IS ALL IRRELEVANT! FIXED BY RUNNING A REPAIR INSTALL OF MY 2.6 SDK! I don't actually use that SDK, but apparently it was important to have.

What can cause this error? I just fresh installed my win7 on an x79 chipset board and 3930K CPU, same radeon 5870 though.
this is my cfg.

Code:

[general]
backend = http://1CxcPP8FVktppy4PHTYJKnZFqQeyZ3jArb:[email protected]:8337

[cl:1:1]
kernel = phatk2
AGGRESSION = 5
VECTORS = true
BFI_INT = true
WORKSIZE = 128

[web]
disable = true

this is the error.

there are definately kernels in my plugins folder, I just download it fresh and it still wont work. help?

Is there a 'kernels' folder at the dir where phoenix.exe is located?

Hasn't been a kernels folder since RC2, Its now "plugins". I can literally copy a working phoenix from one of my miners to this new computer, open phoenix, and get that exact error. FWIW, renaming "plugins" to "kernels" jsut causes an entirely different error.

Code:

[04/11/2012 04:25:06] Welcome to Phoenix v2.0.0

WindowsError: [Error 3] The system cannot find the path specified: 'D:\\phoenix

So it's definately finding the opencl and phatk2 folders and kernels, but something specific to my hardware is making it not work. I also have 2.6 SDK (851.4) and 2.1 SDK (145) installed just like how I had it on the old mobo/cpu/ram, shows up fine in gpu caps viewer. Is there a debug mode that could possibly reveal the problem?

Edit: I also tried phoenix 2.0 RC2, same error. I also tried phoenix 1.7.5 and I got an interesting error.

Do you think it has something to do with the fact that I have 64GB RAM?[/s]

What can cause this error? I just fresh installed my win7 on an x79 chipset board and 3930K CPU, same radeon 5870 though.
this is my cfg.

Code:

[general]
backend = http://1CxcPP8FVktppy4PHTYJKnZFqQeyZ3jArb:[email protected]:8337

[cl:1:1]
kernel = phatk2
AGGRESSION = 5
VECTORS = true
BFI_INT = true
WORKSIZE = 128

[web]
disable = true

this is the error.

there are definately kernels in my plugins folder, I just download it fresh and it still wont work. help?

Is there a 'kernels' folder at the dir where phoenix.exe is located?

I'm not sure if this is related to my build or not, but on my Windows PC, Phoenix 2 will just exit after about a minute of mining. No errors, it just stops.

Any ideas? And what do you want me to try...

Try running Phoenix with the help of a batch file; add a pause to it.

Code:

phoenix.exe
pause

The pause will allow you to see the output from Phoenix before it shuts down.

Does 2.0.0 offer any hashing improvements over 1.7.x?

I believe so. I haven't tested it personally (yet), but when BAMT added it, they claimed a small increase.

Are there any config options to make p2pool happier? I know cgminer has a couple options that make it work better.

So nobody knows how to fix my problem? :/ I fresh installed on my last platform (evga 790i sli ultra, intel Q9550 @ 3.6ghz, 8gb ram) and it worked right away. Everything is identical except for cpu, motherboard, and ram (and associated hardware drivers) and it keeps saying "failed to load plugin 'opencl', failed to load plugin 'phatk2'" no matter what. my current hardware is an intel 3930K @ 4.7ghz, 64GB RAM, and MSI big bang xpower II (x79 chipset).

Anyone know how to fix my problem without reverting to previous hardware or switching OS? Currently use win7 x64 ult

Is there anything logged in the event viewer?

Option logfile = false created file named false Cheesy

The same thing happened to me. I had to comment out that line to suppress the log file.

So many mining programs. What's the best and efficient one for HD5000 series cards? I know that's a very vague question, but I don't even know where to start to try out new miners.

I would suggest posting that question in a more neutral thread.

I'm getting very high CPU usage (20-25%) pretty evenly split between the four cores of a 2500k using Phatk2 and Phoenix2 mining with a single 6870. Any ideas what could cause that?

your driver. use a known driver/sdk combo that doesn't exhibit cpu bug. cpu bug is not a problem of the miner.

i use 11.12 or 12.1, and 2.1 SDK, but 2.4/2.5/2.6 should work too. no cpu bug on single/multi gpu.

It's driver version 12.3 with SDK 2.5. I didn't notice the excessive CPU usage under the old version, I'll have to check into it again.

12.3 definitely has CPU bug. 12.1 definitely does NOT have CPU bug. Not sure about 12.2, havent used yet.

5830 @ 1030/205 phatk2 WORKSIZE = 128, BFI_INT = true, VECTORS = true, AGGRESSION = 12 with SDK 2.1 = 334.7 Mhash. With 2.5 SDK without GOFFSET is 329.5 MHash. With GOFFSET = true with 2.5 SDK 329.8MHash.

SDK 2.1 still king.

Didn't use GOFFSET for 2.1 SDK because it's OpenCL 1.0, not 1.1. Doesn't affect hashes either.

edit: GOFFSET isn't used in phatk2, so hash rates are likely within error. I tried with OpenCL kernel and 2.5 SDK and with/without GOFFSET and didn't see a difference between with and without, though it did has at about 309.5 mhash.
