Title: Error while GUI is running Post by: Widgets on August 12, 2011, 02:13:46 AM Seems about every hour I get an error on the GUI BitMinter v1.0 beta.
2011.08.11 [12:55] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [12:55] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [13:58] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [13:58] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [14:58] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [14:58] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [15:58] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [15:58] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [16:58] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [16:58] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [18:08] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [18:08] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [19:08] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [19:08] Long poll: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [19:28] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [19:28] Fetching more work failed: Connection timed out: connect 2011.08.11 [20:08] Fetching more work failed: Read timed out 2011.08.11 [20:08] Long poll: Read timed out I have no idea what is causing this. Looks like it is having problems communicating with the server but my network is rock solid with everything else that is internet relient, not a lot but enough to know it is not the connection on my side. Thoughts? Thanks in advance, Widgets Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: JoelKatz on August 12, 2011, 02:18:02 AM What are you trying to connect to? What is your hash rate? And are you connecting through any kind of NAT or proxy?
My guess would be you have some kind of NAT device that is timing out 'inactive' connections. Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: Widgets on August 12, 2011, 02:29:46 AM I have no idea what it is trying to connect to...the server to get more work units I assume.
Only NAT device I have is a router and its never caused issues with other bitminers before, not sure why it would now. Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: JoelKatz on August 12, 2011, 04:01:07 AM "The server" meaning what? What server? A pooled mining controller? A local instance of pushpool?
Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: Widgets on August 13, 2011, 02:50:34 PM "The server" is what ever bitminter.com uses to talk to the BitMinter v1.0 beta GUI.
Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: JoelKatz on August 13, 2011, 03:16:49 PM Then there are three likely possibilities:
1) The program is looking for the wrong server name or port. 2) Something is preventing the program from connecting to the server, such as a firewall. 3) The server is down.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=29380 Already post this thread in his pool thread but it might take a while for him to come online and see it. Title: Re: Error while GUI is running Post by: DrHaribo on August 13, 2011, 09:32:18 PM Thanks, Xephan!
The timeouts are really nothing to worry about as long as the miner is still doing work. You can see in the lower right of the window how many "work units" it has currently. The long poll will just reconnect if it times out, so there's nothing to worry about. But I agree the messages are annoying. I guess some of the timeout values are set a little low - I'll address this in a later version of the miner.

Just disable the following, in firewal preferences (menu Edit/Preferences/Advanced Options): block broadcasts from external network block broadcasts from internal network block traffic from reserved addresses on public interfaces Have fun, Joćo Moreira. |
