Title: How to make cgminer automatically and periodically restart?
Post by: lazydna on April 20, 2013, 04:06:02 AM
I'm away from my computer for quite a while.
is there anyway to automate cgminer to automatically shutdown and restart in case driver crash and or other issues?
i'm a complete newb =(

there was a thread about .bat files but it wasn't explained simpler so I couldn't get it working.

+1 for this app.  I didn't use it long, because I wrote something a little more tailored to my needs, but it worked very well for the short time I did.

downloading CGwatcher now.

also can anyone shed any light on these parameters in the .bat file? I saw another thread that suggested this and it seems to work on one rig but not the other?

:loop
cgminer.exe -o http://coinotron.com:8322 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
timeout /T 10
goto loop

for the computer that it doesnt work on, the DOS prompt does not close, just appears to freeze with no values being updated

thanks
