Title: Failover doesn't work
Post by: AnCapFree on June 23, 2013, 11:37:11 PM
I ran into an issue when using failover. I used on my .bat
--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333 -u user -p pass

cgminer runs normally but when I press P for pool management I can see that there's actually no backup pool. What's going on?

You haven't specified a backup pool  ::)

yes I did!
the .bat starts like this:

cgminer -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332

the 2nd line is the:

--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333

the 2nd line is the:

--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333

Each line is .bat file is a new command.  CGMiner and all command line arguments need to be one line.

Such as

cgminer --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333 -u user -p pass -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332 -u user -p pass
