Title: [XPM] libgmp trap error in dmesg
Post by: dangad999 on September 18, 2013, 09:40:37 PM
Hey All,

First Post! :)

I have a few servers running primecoin CPU mining (The HP11 version) on x64 Ubuntu 12.04 Server. In about the last 3 days all the servers are killing primecoind and only getting 154 primespersec - until it dies.

dmesg returns the following error (its the same error on ALL servers)

[9478690.206276] primecoin-miner[18664] trap divide error ip:a3fdf4v421acf4 error:0 in libgmp.so.10.0.2[7fbb6ea9c000+66000]

Its worth noting that all the servers have been mining non-stop without errors for the last 2 months until this issue. - The servers dont have auto update enabled

Anyone seeing this error or have any ideas where to start?

Any help would be appreciated.

DoS-attack ?

I would think it was more a mathematics computation error as it seems to be coming from the libgmp library. - Could be wrong.

Does anyone have any suggestion on how to verify, ive watched netstat and the "connections" line in getinfo to see what connections I have, and they dont appear very high.

If it was a DOS-Attack, surely my machines (which are are different physical locations) wouldn't be the only ones...?

Anyone?
