Yeah 1000watts PSU is usually quality made and they have peak power usage past the limit for a short period of time. Most should have an auto shut off mechanism. I highly doubt it blew but more then likly blew something else, such as ram, maybe mother board, depending on what was having a lot of power drawn to it at the time.

Oh yeah for got to tell you, My wallet.dat file seems to have a copy of the block chain with it.
2583  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Are linux .bitcoin files interchangable with windows AppData\Bitcoin? on: July 05, 2011, 03:17:19 AM
I'm pretty sure they are all compatible although I only have experience for copying my personal wallet.dat file. That works every time.

Personally I delete my wallet.dat file every time I log of my computer and store it on a usb stick(Quick tip from Xenland Smiley

My Radeon 6990 made by Diamond is in over clocked mode and I basically have to have the Fans running at 95-100%(usually a constant 100%) unless it is at night because it gets freezing were I live so usualy open a window about that time and can set the fans to around 65-80%.
 Any ways what are your fan speeds at?

P.s. my gpu temps are wierd like that aswell even with fans full blast.

QUESTION: is /tmp/shares.log and /tmp/request.log entirely necessary? Under what circumstances would one require those files? I assume they would become quite massive in a short amount of time.

Send SIGHUP to the process, to re-open the logs (such as after rotation or deletion).



Why even create them at all though to begin with I guess is my question? If you are already making exact copies of them in your mysql database that you can clean by "timestamp" much easier?

If I simply remove those two lines from the server.json file, is everything going to explode?

Can anybody answer the above question?

Is it necessary to create the two log files when we are already backing up everything to MySQL?

Can I easily remove the two log file lines (or send them to a blackhole type script or a file that never saves or something?)

I plan on removing old "shares" from my MySQL table on the fly as a new block is found.

Yes and no, The log files for for those who don't do terminal based debugging so I believe(don't quote the following) they are hard coded into pushpool to output them in case of a crash.
I think that log files usually trim the older lines of logs. Most developers(especially anyone that can program a pool servicing) has probubly been around for a while long before the days of when 512mb was unheard of and text data could file a whole hard drive within minutes. So I personally believe that they do stop getting bigger at some point

Can you easlity remove the two log file lines... Idk, i don't think anybody has tried, you should be the first. Let us know what your results are and we'll assist you wit what we can.

You should really install Mining Farm and check out the database structure to see how it all works I do something similar. Basically current rounds go to the `shares` table then upon a found block they get converted to the `shares_history` where they wait for the block to be confirmed, changing tables ensures better performance when doing reward counting. After its done rewarding and counting shares it moves all shares for that round into the `shares_dead` which is like a back up for operators in the case that the code went horribly wrong(hopefully never) and everyone got offset rewards. the operator can realy on a "backup" sorta of speak other then that `shares_dead` is just a back up Cheesy

Stupid question time plz......can someone tell me how to properly shut down pushpoold please? I cant seem to find the command documented anywhere? Also, is there a clear example of how one's startup line should look to enable pushpoold to output display to the open terminal window?

like: ./pushpoold -F -E

This command seems to sorta work I think....all I get with that is the port list that pushpoold is listening on and that it is initialized..I dont however get output like for when a remote client connects?

Thanks in advance!

d3c0n808, is correct pushpool is a cut and dry application it is very shy about giving details about what is happening although the command that you are using should display when users are connecting. I should note that it will only display when users are connecting on 2 of the 4 ports set in the .json file. One of the 2 ports I mentioned just now will work and the other wont, although they both report they are connected/connecting
2587  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [v4.1.73] Mining Farm .::. Fixed stats page reward display for invalid blocks on: July 04, 2011, 03:42:51 PM
Thats just it, I have other apps that rely on the same php.ini file and all other mail apps work fine....only the frontend software wont send emails out for registering new clients....pretty important feature to work....are you saying you have fixed something or made an update now? It is very confusing as where to look for when updates are applied......also I dont get the confusion with github, I mean you zip up the files and upload them to the server correct? How do the files keep coming up missing or not extra files included??

That's a really odd problem, I'll look into it further. about the git hub thing I personally liked the part were I zip it up and upload to FTP but I had floods of change log requests every time an update was posted. Someone suggested I use a management system for coders such as Git Hub, I like it in the sense all I must do is type in a few commands and it will scan the code for new changes and update it to the website, However I have had issues with it such as a week ago someone did a pull request and I didn't know what that was. I was pushed into a corner to choose either accept the weird push issue that was reported in the terminal or force it. Thinking I'd break the upload I just accepted the pull then pushed it to the server and I come to find out just about every file had weird series of numbers along with "<<<<<<<<" signs in groups in a line. The code was a messed up to yin yang took about 6 hours to clean up. Long story short I still have problems with it but I backup a lot more to prevent issues like that. Anyways back to git hub, You can go to the git hub page and find the master branch there should be a comparison tool some where on the page(I still have trouble finding it). You can find your version that you downloaded and compare it with another version, it will then show you a list of files with red and green lines. The green lines means those lines were added to the project and the red one means that it was deleted from the project in comparison of each other.

and no none of my fixes were email auth related, Mostly optimizations for databases, some interface touch ups, and although bit coins were distribute correctly it would show up wrong in a few displays such as the stats.php file it would be a few BTC off and I added support for showing which blocks were invalid or orphaned in the stats page. Even tho they were never counted when rewarding users(just to clear any confusion on that)

Hope this helps mate!

Yeah mate, But its more of a pun about how everybody is in it for them selves and will bring profitable people down just becuase they are jealous of their success.

Your an all in one guy, Database programming and a dentist, I bet you can do both at the same time Tongue

But in all seriousness
Could you be more specific and clear about what functions aren't working for you?
I have been following this thread daily and was aware of your mailing problem but it was nothing that I can fix personally(Didn't personally think I was required to butt-in really?)
My software relies on PHP mailing functions which is usually supported on more then 90% out of the box VPS hosting and it is more of a PHP issue then a software it sounds like anyways.(May be config issue)
Anyways I remember about a month ago I had mailing issues with PHP and I never did find a solution except that I reloaded the operating system which is less then ideal for recommending someone for a solution.

I actually did some testing yesterday and posted a bunch of fixes like I announced I would about a week ago.
and in all actuality it took me relativity 4-6 weeks to create this software from scratch, So i think your estimate for how long you've been chipping away is probably a little off.

P.S. Before the update that i mentioned above I have deleted poolstats.php unless github didn't commit it to the request in which this case I would ask your workers/users to ignore the broken link. Thanks mate!
2590  Other / Beginners & Help / Rule of bitcoin for hackers revealed! on: July 04, 2011, 08:07:03 AM
So I met SWIM last night and he told me in a dream the rules to bitcoin.
I think SWIM is a hacker

The first rule of Bitcoins is you don't talk about Bitcoins
The second rule of Bitcoins is YOU DON"T TALK ABOUT BITCOINS
If someone succeeds, display progress or publishes publicly and gains from it.... the fight is over (DDoS  Them)
Target 2 n00bs at a time.
One difficulty at a time.
No leeway, No progress.
Hacking sessions will go on as long as they have to.
If this is your first time in the community you have to be shut out.
2591  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [Announce] Bitcoin Developer Mining Pools on: July 03, 2011, 10:36:14 PM
This sounds like an awesome idea after I get some testing finished with Mining Farm software, I'll redirect my Miner towards your project, I would love to win me some BTC Cheesy
Another note, I think if somebody that knew what to look for as far security exploits bounty I think an untrusted user would rather exploit the security issue then report it at that reward. Thats just my honest opinion tho hopefully people are more respectful then that on these forums but hey its the Internet Tongue
2592  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: BitCams.com | Now accepting shares | MAY CONTAIN ADULT CONTENT on: July 03, 2011, 09:12:05 PM
As programmer of the site, I will forward this Idea to vegetta. No doubt we will have somthing like this tho, this is an awsome idea.
Were you thinking rewards as money? discounts? or bitcam points?
2593  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Pushpool can checked Hashpasswords? on: July 03, 2011, 07:53:51 PM
I think I saw somebody propose this not too long ago can't find the thread, but Is there a way to edit pushpool json to check hashed passwords? I tried doing password(`password) but that actually just checks a hashed-hashed password. Any suggestions?

2597  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: You sold your BTC today for $15 but tomorrow your BTC will be selling for $50. on: July 02, 2011, 07:09:40 AM
Yeah we deffinatly need bussiness that are trustable, reailable and provide a constant service to stablize the worth of bitcoins. All these one dollar Candy, or alpacha socks wont cut it, That just backs up the bitcoins a couple of bucks.More Retailers!!!

Once the gambling industry gets in gear I'm sure there will be nothing to worry about.  I bet there are lots of gears turning behind the scenes.

Not trying to hate but my point was mainly products and services that people would regularly purchase with fiat/credit cards. Such as major electronics HD TV, monitors, stereo systems, home appliances(blenders, power mixers, maybe lightbulbs?), uhh lets see what else... Idk but things that will "backup" the currency to a set BTC rate.

If we had retailers like the omes stated above they could have a set BTC price that would change at the most of 6 month intervals, this in theory would back up the btc back to the standard it was ment to be backed by which is actuall worth.

So lets say i sell a pretty good computer for 53 BTC if bitcoins conversion rate drops to $10 or even $5 the price would stay the same at rate of 53BTC. BUT XENLAND, THEN PEOPLE COULD BUY IT FOR CHEAPER!!

Yeah so what? The products are allready invested for the next 6 months so it depends on when the supplier cashes out(if the supplyer needs to, maybe one day everything will be spent/bought bitcoins so suppliers could pay and purchase their products from wholesalers in bulk for cheap prices).

If more btc bussiness had this model the bitcoins would stablize becuase their would be less conversions and more bitcoin cash flow between the bitcoin adoptors.

Respect. Tell me what your opionion is on this theory becuase ive been seriously poundering about it for a couple of months

2599  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Mining will become controlled by botnets on: July 01, 2011, 01:35:18 PM
I didnt mean to imply coding would be difficult.
But ive thinking about it a littlebit more and maybot net operators will hook up $800 gpus for faster resources and you purchase share of the gpu power. Personally i dont see the poit youd end up having to pay relativly the same amount becuase of how much the card costs. Id personally would rath spend $100 a month on saving up on gpus then spending it on a "share" of gpu resources. Own a video card can payit self off after a short amount of time and if mining gets unprofitable you could always sell the card and get some of your investment back Smiley
2600  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Mining will become controlled by botnets on: July 01, 2011, 01:01:13 PM
I thinkyou mean cpus not gpus i highly doubt operators will spend over $800 or more for shared hashing just to make a couple of buck  although pluasable.
