What results do you get when apply that query into the mysql directly with simulated data?

Try the follow query(tested) for verification
Quote
INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (" ", " ", "Y", "", " ", " ")
Like some other people over in that thread I am having trouble getting the shares table to update.  In my server.json I have the same line
Quote
"stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"
  I have a couple workers connected to pushpool and everything is humming along.  Shares.log is a hive of activity, yet pushpool is not INSERTing into MySQL.
Quote
mysql> SELECT * FROM shares;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

Mining Farm recieves its shares with mysql . You can enable mysql by setting sharelog to true, then setting up the mysql query to your liking.
Here is a reference from the pushpool tech support thread,
Code:
{
   # network ports
   "listen" : [
      # binary protocol (default), port 8342
      { "port" : 8342 },

      # HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8341
      { "port" : 8347, "protocol" : "http-json" },

      # HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
      #proxy is most likely your external ip address if your running a public pool | Public pools WON'T have the following ip addresses: (10.0.0.1, 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.100, or 192.168.254.254,etc,etc)
      # requests to us | "proxy" should be set to your ip address that people will connect through
      { "port" : 8344, "protocol" : "http-json",
        "proxy" : "127.0.0.1" },

      # binary protocol, localhost-only port 8338
      # host is most likely your localhost address
      { "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 8338, "protocol" : "binary" }
   ],

   # database settings
   "database" : {
      "engine" : "mysql",

      "host" : "localhost",

      "port" : 3306,

      #database name
      "name" : "pushpool",
      #database username
      "username" : "mysqlusername",
      #database password
      "password" : "mysqlpass",
      #enable sharelog | to insert share data or sometimes known as "work"
      "sharelog" : true,
      "stmt.pwdb":"SELECT password FROM pool_worker WHERE username = ?",
      
      "stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"

   },

   #uncoment this when you want to use memcached (Recommended for servers over 1.5gb of ram)
   # cache settings
   #"memcached" : {
   #   "servers" : [
   #      { "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 11211 }
   #   ]
   #},

   "pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

   # overrides local hostname detection
   "forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

   "log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
   "log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

   # the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
   "longpoll.disable" : false,

   # length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds
   "auth.cred_cache.expire" : 75,

   # RPC settings
   #Bitcoind Protocal settings
   #Host were bitcoind can be found on the network
   "rpc.url" : "http://127.0.0.1:8332/",
   #Username & password to connect to bitcoind
   "rpc.user" : "BitcoindUsername",
   "rpc.pass" : "BitcoindPassword",

   # rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
   "rpc.target.rewrite" : true
}

How does Mining Farm get shares information from pushpool?  Does it check shares.log or MySQL?  If MySQL, what should my server.json file look like to populate the shares table?

I am trying to install without memcached because i am on a xen vps.
so i don't have memcached nor LibMemcached, I did
Code:
 ./configure --without-memcached
it complains:
Code:
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --without-memcached
what am i doing wrong here?
Xen or VM ware I'm not an expert but you should still be required to install libmemcached or memcached as its a pre-req to install the server.
If you don't need it don't run memcached. If your having memeory problems with your server with(or without) memcached you need more ram)
2685  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Mainstreaming BTC on: June 18, 2011, 09:42:18 AM
Im on board i agree that we should stop cashing out and start cashing in. other wise something great will be lost over greed. I would also like to announce im down to design an bussiness if it means increasing the bitcoins buying power. PM if you have any bussiness ideas and would like a bussiness partner to start. I have a valid california wholesale and bussiness license.

The key problem with going from fiat currency to bitcoins is that bitcoins do not have an "established" value. For example, if you have 1 dollar you can calculate your buying power relative to the currency of another country. With the rapidly fluctuating value of bitcoins relative to fiat currencies, no serious business will dare to use it. Today 2 BTC may be worth $20 and tomorrow work $10...then a week later $50.

One thing that could help is if the community deals exclusively with bitcoins and stops trying to mine them and cash out. If we as a community form a consensus on the value of 1 BTC, we can then form pricing for various products and services accordingly.

Let's try this:

We arbitrarily decide that 1 BTC should be equivalent to $100.00 USD in terms of buying power. A consensus is formed in the community to support this valuation. All products and services from that point should be priced in BTC according to 1 BTC = $100, regardless of what the exchange markets say.

1) If people see that 1 BTC has $100 USD of buying power, they would be less inclined to sell it on mt.gox for a mere $15 in an attempt to cash out.

2) If people can purchase the products and services they want with BTC then it eliminates the need to cash out, so the marketplace needs to be diverse and full of stuff people actually want.

3) For people who do want to cash out, the markets will be forced to adjust accordingly and should stabilize as more people simply transact with BTC rather than cashing out.

2690  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: SHA vs BCRYPT Offline brute forcing? Is there a HUGE difference, and sources? on: June 17, 2011, 10:03:28 PM
Did you try researching this at all by yourself? There are a plethora of blog posts explaining exactly what you are asking. Or you could go read the original paper. This would be easy enough to write a test script as well to empirically discover the answer.

With python and going from memory, bcrypt set for 12 rounds takes about .3 seconds on my laptop to compute a hash. I can compute hundreds of thousands of SHA512 hashes in that same amount of time.

Edit: And theoretically, you could make a SHA hash function that ran quite slowly, but why not just use bcrypt at that point.

I wasn't trying to make the bitcoin community to do my searching, no far from it. There is alot of files on google for encryption methods but most are pretty outdated as far as performance goes and I like to hear reliable information, so if someone mentions a factual article here that I've seen it online, That tells me that they probably did their research like I did, Validating that the article I read must be somewhat true. Scince another person with different type of perspective saw that article valid. In other words I don't go by hear say, or just "read an article" online and believe it, I must cross reference and figure out others opinions before I can see it as the truth.

and to g-max well thanks that's a very use full and helpful article about entropy and securing short passwords

Hi Xenland,

Your Frontend looks much better than the last one. I picked up a little issue though the "Register" button does not forward to register.php but acts the same as the Login button.

Both tries to login the user.

Sterling work though !
Thanks that's great news to hear!
and about the bug I'll get right on that for the official release
2692  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Religious Orientation on: June 16, 2011, 08:04:21 AM
The truth is only here and now. Anything else is just theory, this include past and future. This includes the proximity beyond our senses. Bitcoins are real becuase they are here. When they are gone there energy will trancend into history text books. Bitcoins will be just an earthly memory just as jesus and buhhda abd aliah and anything else that dosent exist. I officially dont believe in any religioin of the past is truth at this time. I believe in the truth,  here and now, with my present senses of perception. Past religions magic are only present in the past. This is here and now; the only truth, and right now bitcoins exist and thats our miricale made by everyone here and now . That analogy is kind of how i view religion in the sense that es there most deffinatly was a jesus and did wonder full things and there most deffinatly was a budda showing peace and humbleness and most noteably gaundi stopped wars. Back then they didnt have schools that taught about people who did the same, becuase the whole world was chaos everyone was too busy trying to break down new boundries cross seas to find new lands, pirates killing and claiming ships. Im just trying to say that maybe over time the constant laws of nature slowly change over time making new laws for humans to constantly discover and the old ones slowly decay.

So my conclusion is that the universe knows whats going to happen in the future so in the past where their was tons of mircles becuase they couldnt be captured by anything including camera phones, or high deff video camera or the internet for the instructions to be sent virally to exploit these miracles. No the rules changed as the faster and easier information could be sent now the universe has different rules more secure rules that in order to do miracles it goes beyond just knowing the information.
 I wont tell you the answer to the new rules put in place other wise the universe will change the rules again thus making me seeem like a lyer becuase by the time you attempt the new rules you wont be here and now when the rules were present and now the here and now rules.

Know the truth.
2693  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / SHA vs BCRYPT Offline brute forcing? Is there a HUGE difference, and sources? on: June 15, 2011, 12:59:36 AM
So I hear a lot of talk about how Bcrypt is so much better in terms of it making it longer to crack each hashed password from a compromised database.
So Is there really a huge difference in how long it will take to crack a SHA(256/512) in comparison to Bcrypt. and I know the answer is bcrypt but How much of a difference?
are we talking years or just a couple of weeks difference?

Please cite your sources if you have any, if not at least speak from your own experience and not other peoples experience's to sound all smart. Thanks Smiley

You could however have people pay for one time use memberships(or giftcards), and there will be member denominations of $10, $20,$50, $100.
In return you service them bitcoins giftcard which is more like a comoddity then a currency exchange.
Id call paypal up and see if what i said will be acceptable within their terms of service. Just make sure your very clear that your selling giftcards and not straight up converting currency.

OR
You could start a service that hold their money for them for select peoird of time(to help those with gambling problems), and then you pay them in bitcoins at the end of the peroid scince gambling isnt a problem at this point in time with the bitcoin community in fact i read somewhere that gambling was decreasing.

Again. Call paypal get a written out autborizing and have them send you a copy and you will be fine
So what ive done is if you become a PRO member I "reward" you with bitcoins depending on the "package" you get but I dont know how to keep the rates correct since its a fixed price, and why is everyone hating on me im risking a paypal account and im doing no harm to u guys am i? Im just trying to make it easier for people to get them,gez
This is just my theory, but nobody wants bitcoins to look like a scam not to say your creating a scam far from it actually. What can possibly happen is that alot of other peoples money get locked into a paypal account that no one can touch, that means anyone not knowing that this could happen(n00bs) will tend to believe they got ripped of thinking that everything was legit. The pissed off customers go about saying how bitcoins are a scam because they lost tons of money. The moral is that is just looks bad for a legit currency to start off in its youth and no body wants history to repeat it self.
Again just a theory, i don't speak for all of the bitcoin users here

Well heck, I'm glad I started this thread!  Two new open-source pools with front-ends = mission accomplished!

I'd start a pool myself, but I don't have the guts to go up against the DDOSers that seem to run rampant across the pools.
I've been thinking about DDOS attacks myself, Once I get enough BTC I will be able to get a good server and try this idea out I have with firewall permissions. You know deny everyone from the pool accept those that have authenticated their IP address before connecting, That way the server just will not respond to those IP address unauthenticated.
This would probubly deffinalty slow down attackers as they'd have to authenticate every single netbot and if they have 1000000 netbots coming from 1 ip address it will shut them out. Simple as that .
This will be in a couple of months from now after my pooling software is perfect but still a dream i have for the future of pooling services Cheesy
tell me what you guys think in terms of flaws, and maybe how annoying it might be to authenticate your ip address everytime
2699  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal for bitcoins....I'm gonna try and make THE site on: June 13, 2011, 11:04:45 PM
Yeah definably a bad time to be doing this, esspecially after another use got locked. Paypal will just be monitoring large amounts of money that are coming from unused account by now for sure. Then they'll just do a google search of your email, find out its being used for bitcoins and then lock its. Sounds stupid to me. Lose your money and others
2700  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I just got hacked - any help is welcome! on: June 13, 2011, 10:49:13 PM
I didn't read too many pages in so I'll just throw my two cents in,
This sounds like a case of lack of security.
Trojan or not if you made as many backups and encrypted as much as you say you did
this shouldn't be a problem.
Nobody just has fat stacks of BTC/cash just lying around ready for anybody to take especially in this economy.
Next time encrypt your wallet.dat file copy it to an inaccessible folder in your smart-Phone like i do,
Delete the wallet.dat file from your computer.
Problem solved!
