Title: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 09, 2015, 08:58:03 PM hi not to sure if this is in the right sections if so sorry mod
main question im able to do all the compiling ./autogen ./configure make etc but when i run it it tells me to switch over to bitcoin-qt i cant seem to get the wallet setup let alone start downloading the blockchain via terminal also keep running into the problem of pointing the bitcoin-qt to the conf file any tips and help any one can provide would be much appreicated schwartzs Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: Muhammed Zakir on April 09, 2015, 11:07:03 PM Can you give more details? If you want to run Bitcoin-qt, you can download it from https://bitcoin.org/en/download and install it.
FYI: You can't run Bitcoin-qt via terminal, but you can run Bitcoind or Bitcoin-cli. Better answers can be expected(from others and me) if you can post more details like what problem you are occuring, when it occur etc... Edit: Recommended configuration(Bitcoin.conf): Code: server=1 • Windows: Go to %AppData%\Bitcoin and create a new notepad file and name it "bitcoin.conf". After you do, open it and add the above code with preferred username and password and save it. • Linux: Type "nano ~/.Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf" in terminal and add above code with preferred username and password and save it. • Mac: Type “nano "~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/"” in terminal aand add above code with preferred username and password and save it. Now run "bitcoind -daemon". Hopefully, blockchain will be downloaded now. Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 09, 2015, 11:28:09 PM when running bitcoind saying setup rpc user etc even tho i have trouble with bitcoin.conf location maybe
also says bitcoind no longer supports rpc function im also doin this via a vps any help to get past this and start server and block chain download be much appreicated schwartzs Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: Muhammed Zakir on April 09, 2015, 11:43:36 PM I have edited my previous post regarding Bitcoin configuration file. Please try it out.
im also doin this via a vps You are connecting from vps to pc or pc to vps or connection bitcoind to locally(in vps)? Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 10, 2015, 12:27:00 AM Connection via pc to my vps and running bitcoind via the static ip assigned to the vps

Not to this specifically to this... But if you're having trouble just setting up the wallet, what makes you think you're going to run a successful pool? Just food for thought. Make sure all your deps are installed prior to running ./autogen and ./configure and perhaps run sudo -i before running those commands or putting sudo in front of them. Hard to diagnose without a copy/paste of the exact information it's giving you. If there is some sort of debug log you could check that too, to determine the issue as well. If you want post the information out here to let us help you setup your wallet then think about the running the pool. It takes a lot more than a wallet and some php-mpos to run a pool successfully and I'll tell you, if you're on a VPS you're already on the wrong path.

on my pc linux compilling etc went fine now i have got bitcoin server starting bingo got wallet adress now onto stratum schwartzs Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 10, 2015, 02:52:51 PM ok run into next problem iv tried assignging one of my miners to the adress on mpos and it isnt doin nout not even mining any idea ???

Have you installed it correctly? See https://github.com/MPOS/php-mpos/blob/master/README.md and other DOCs(if any), if you have missed something. P.S. Please give any image or something, it is hard to answer without knowing exact problem(s). Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: jonnybravo0311 on April 10, 2015, 05:48:19 PM Setting up your own MPOS pool is a relatively non-trivial task. The instructions on how to do so are very extensive. Just out of curiosity, why are you trying to setup your own pool?
Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 11, 2015, 12:25:19 PM have a relatively good knowledge of linux and the pool its self will only be on local network just for the sakwe of learning from it im already mining on
slushs pool i was just looking to gain a better in depth knowledge of how the setting up a mining pool and understanding how it works will post in regards of mpos shortly as iv had to start from scratch upto stratum again silly question is there some where i can download the sha256 script from or do i just change the coin algo in stratum setup Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 11, 2015, 05:20:35 PM am i to guess that i cant start mining on the pool until the entire block chains down etc ??
got all compiled cant run stratum till block chains downloaded Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: Muhammed Zakir on April 12, 2015, 05:58:49 AM am i to guess that i cant start mining on the pool until the entire block chains down etc ?? got all compiled cant run stratum till block chains downloaded Yes, you can't. You can't earn anything from it unless you have a lot of miners but you can learn from it. Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 12, 2015, 08:12:04 AM any idea
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/root/stratum-mining/lib/block_updater.py", line 49, in run prevhash = util.reverse_hash((yield self.bitcoin_rpc.prevhash())) Error: 404 Not Found Which port would I have to open to connect externally ??? also my miners will only mine for like 25 minutes and then mpos front will start showing decreases in hash rates then hit zero but my miners still show in there web GUI they’re mining but on mpos it will show no hashing rates Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: Muhammed Zakir on April 13, 2015, 06:22:19 AM any idea Traceback (most recent call last): File "/root/stratum-mining/lib/block_updater.py", line 49, in run prevhash = util.reverse_hash((yield self.bitcoin_rpc.prevhash())) Error: 404 Not Found I am not certain what is the problem. Have you downloaded whole blockchain and is your parameters in Bitcoin.conf correct? Which port would I have to open to connect externally ??? 8332 would be fine. You can also use a custom port if you like. also my miners will only mine for like 25 minutes and then mpos front will start showing decreases in hash rates then hit zero but my miners still show in there web GUI they’re mining but on mpos it will show no hashing rates Which miners and OS are you using? I think mpos supports getblocktemplate mining protocol, have you tried it? You may want to look at this tutorial: https://github.com/MPOS/php-mpos/wiki/Quick-Start-Guide If you can't make it ready, you can try CoiniumServ. It looks like easier to setup. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=604476.0 P.S. This might also help you. http://coingolem.com/how-to-set-up-your-own-mining-pool-using-mpos-229/. Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 13, 2015, 11:43:22 AM no longer have error listed above just trying to solve
miners and hope they dont cut out on mpos Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 14, 2015, 08:17:49 PM using an s1 and s3 that mine fine when i just leave 1 miner on the local it stops showing hasing rates for like 25 minutes but if i connect my 2nd unit its a continous hash rate bouncing between the two
Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 15, 2015, 04:43:24 PM yep params are right no interferance on connections whats so ever block chains down 100%
if i run 2 units i have no issue but if its just one unit connected it acts up both units connected under same user it runs fine it switchs between the 2 at certain difficulty etc so the hasing rate is fluxing dependant on which device is on if its solo 1 device only then there a period of no displayed hash rates but the server is still accepting valid shares Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: Xandrah on April 16, 2015, 09:26:28 PM Fixed 404 issue, downgrade to bitcoind v0.9.0 github repo, 0.10.0 does something to the bitcoind service.
Title: Re: making mining pool problems Post by: schwartzs on April 18, 2015, 05:43:27 PM will do cheers
