Title: Mining pool stats page not updating
Post by: MattDillon on May 12, 2014, 06:16:19 PM
Hey guys, I am running 4- Antminer s1's. It seems like every Sunday, the stats area on my mining page stops updating. The info for my individual miners at the bottom of the page updates, but my total reward area, and confirmed reward area stop updating for between 24-48 hours. During that time the unconfirmed reward shows 0.000000 and stays there. Once it begins updating again, it doesnt seem to catch up for all the time it was frozen. Does anyone else see this happening or know why its happening?

What is the pool where you have pointed the s1s?

I have 2 machines using the primary as http://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333

The other two use http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332 as the primary.
The mines show both addresses as alive. This does work very well during the week.

Mmm... slush's pool has now a little hashrate in bitcoin network, so maybe luck variance sometime can be very low for hours, and reduce potential earnings in a short timeframe. For how many sundays you have noticed this freeze?

Default mining URL for Stratum is stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333. If you're still using api.bitcoin.cz, please fix your URL to prevent fallback to deprecated Getwork protocol.

Getwork protocol support ended. Please be sure your miners support Stratum protocol. You can still use your old getwork miners with Stratum proxy installed on your mining rig.

Point them to stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333, not api.bitcoin.cz:8332. Support for that ended long ago.

Changing the URL to the stratum one is a good thing, but the user has reported a occasionaly freeze of the earnings, so maybe the problem is not directly related to what URL he should use

Maybe because the api. link is bugged?
And it frequently disconnects so no work is done?
OP, do shares get accepted in that period?

When you get the pool stats freezed, can you check from the webgui if the ants are correctly submitting shares? (Last share column)

I think the best thing is to try joining a different mining pool to see if the same thing happens over there. This is a pool issue, not a url issue.
Thanks anyway.

Ok, keep us updated if switching to another pool will resolve your issue
