Title: Stratum Connection Interrupted
Post by: The Goat Master on May 24, 2013, 09:46:57 PM
Stratum connection to pool 0: interrupted

This keeps showing up on my cgminer, is that supposed to happen?

It literally means it disconnected as in the connection was interrupted.

Do I need to use a stratum proxy or something?

If you're talking about slush's pool it's working for me, more than three months without interruption.
yhere was just a bug with many invalid blocks, now it's sorted out.

It depends on where you're mining, but the connection can become interrupted any time the work server gets slow or the network is lossy. Look at the pool's reported hash rate during these events to determine if there's a dip for everyone or just you. Another thing to consider is that whenever a new block is found, all the miners need to get the new block templates and it can cause a temporary overload of the server.
