Topic: Strange GUI Miner bug (Read 1146 times)
I know the programmer asked for bug reports to be put in the Mining Software forum, but I can only post here, so.
Using GUI Miner v2012-12-03 (the most recent version as of last night), every time I try to start mining, I get the following unhelpful messages in the lower left corner:
Shares: 0 accepted, 2 stale/invalid
Then, after about a second has passed:
ValueError: too many values to unpack
As far as I can tell from a Google search, I am one of only two people on the entire planet having this problem, and he hasn't gotten an answer (though it looks like he was somewhat differently clued than the average techie). Speaking of differently clued, I'm clueless here.
GUIMiner version: v2012-12-03
Operating system: Windows XP SP2 (SP3 refuses to install)
Miner backend: OpenCL/poclbm (I think? There were no instructions on where to extract the files so that GUI Miner could use them, only for doing it manually.)
Video card: Geforce 8600 GTS (yes, I know, it's ancient. But I updated to the very latest drivers tonight.)
Server: Triplemining on Bitcoin client v0.7.2-beta
And yes, this still happens when I have Bitcoin set to load as a server (it gives me a weird-ass error if I try to launch it in server mode from within GUI Miner, so I modified the shortcut with the -server command.
