Title: Eligius + phoenix: miner is idle Post by: tanascius on June 21, 2011, 10:41:20 PM Unfortunately I can't post to the "mining" forum, "eligius" thread. Maybe someone can forward this message to it?
I am having problems with eligius - every few minutes (really very often!) I get the following messages: [22/06/2011 00:31:32] Warning: work queue empty, miner is idle [22/06/2011 00:31:40] Disconnected from server [22/06/2011 00:32:08] Failed to connect, retrying... [22/06/2011 00:32:17] Connected to server I am running on linux, have to graphic cards installed. One is mining with eligius, one with deepbit (just to compare the pools). And I run only into troubles with eligius, no matter which card I use. Phoenix says something like 0.9% stale, while eligius shows me ~4% stales. Probably because of the disconnects. Is there any parameter I can use to improve my askrate? Right now, I use: Code: ./phoenix.py -u http://x:x@mining.eligius.st:8337 -k phatk DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=9 Thanks for your help! Title: Re: Eligius + phoenix: miner is idle Post by: Bloodys on June 22, 2011, 09:50:17 AM For trying out askrate, put ;askrate=10 for example after the url for the pool like this:
Code: ./phoenix.py -u http://x:x@mining.eligius.st:8337;askrate=10 -k phatk DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=9 But the problem you have could also be related to the server being overloaded at the moment from too many users trying to connect.

Come try out mineco instead: https://mineco.in Title: Re: Eligius + phoenix: miner is idle Post by: tanascius on June 22, 2011, 09:34:09 PM Come try out mineco instead: https://mineco.in I tried mineco.in right away. But I get a little bit nervous: after about 160 shares my stats are still showing that I didn't submit any shares at all (and still mining @0Mhash/s). Are the stats so slowly refreshing? After all the page tells me that the hashrate should be calculated over the last 10 minutes. Oh and Wuked: the contact link on your page points to a thread in a forum that is locked for newbies :/ Title: Re: Eligius + phoenix: miner is idle Post by: tanascius on June 22, 2011, 09:45:58 PM For trying out askrate, put ;askrate=10 for example after the url for the pool like this: Code: ./phoenix.py -u http://x:x@mining.eligius.st:8337;askrate=10 -k phatk DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=9 Sorry, this command line does not work: No device specified or device not found, use DEVICE=ID to specify one of the following But putting the arguments -u to the end works: Code: ./phoenix.py DEVICE=0 VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=9 -k phatk -u http://x:x@mining.eligius.st:8337;askrate=10 Let's see what happens the next few hours.

If your miner is happy then the server will catch up soon! |
