Patrick, can you suport Xmrig ? i cant have it to run... Must we config anyting? i checked the treads detected and they are fine but always geting cuda error... and it dont start mining.

I tested Nicehash aplication with current gpu clocks and it works fine. 2.2Khs on my 5 GPU

Also can you give suport for escavator 1.5? that would work.

Unexpected exit of mining software. Possible cause: Incorrect configuration
Diagnostics completed

XMRig should work fine in general, and it looks like it's launched correctly but simply not working due to a nVidia CUDA error. This is an error internal in XMRig and cannot be resolved from an Awesome Miner point of view.

Excavator 1.5 is currently in Alpha, and yet again they have changed the API and configuration to make it incompatible with previous formats. I will have to wait a bit more until it's getting more stable before I can investigate how to support it. It also looks like it only supports the Nicehash pools and nothing else.

Hi. Please share more details what the error is. It's also recommended to start the miner with the Diagnostics button, and use the GPU mining troubleshooting guide to resolve some of the common problems:

Hi all.
I've just installed Awesome Miner and I'm getting this error when I try to start:

HTTP request failed: Empty reply from server
get_work failed, retry after 30 seconds

I think everything with the pool and them miner is ok, and that is the firts time I get this error from any miner.
What could it be? Any help?

Sorry if that was asked before. 288 pages are a lot, and search function didn't work.


Right-click the miner, select diagnostics... then post it here.  We can help you fix it, but we need more information.

Thanks for answering. Finally I followed a video someone suggested in another post and could make ir work.
Another question... I've seen that free version allows a maximun of two miners. Do I need to set up a miner for each coin/pool pair I want to mine?
Or may I choose different pools / coins before starting a miner
Hi,

You can use the Managed Template concept to define combinations of mining software and pools. Then you can apply the template to a miner to change all configuration of it. Please see the link below for more details:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/managedtemplate.aspx

Thanks. Finally I managed to do what I wanted by editing custom profiles.
I have another cuestion. Is it possible to set up a new pool without a coin asociated? And add it later, or choose between some.
As fas as I've seen, there is no way to link coins and wallets, isn't it?

A pool must always have a coin. You can set it to "Unspecified Cryptonight" or similar if you only know the algorithm.
Wallet balance and pool balance must be added manually in Options dialog, Balance section.

Hi patrike. I think I'm experiencing a bug in the latest version. I'm trying to mine CryptonightV7 with nVidia GPU's but I can't get the benchmark going.
Here are the steps I've taken. in the setting I've enabled the CryptonightV7 algorythm. In managed software I enabled XMRig nVidia Miner 2.5.2. In the nVidia GPU profit profile I do see the CryptonightV7 algorythm and the XMRig nVidia Miner mining software is enabled too.
Still when I go to the benchmark menu CryptonightV7 is not there. I've also tried to point AM to manually downloaded miner to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: just for testing I tried configuring Cryptonight-Lite and it IS showing up in the benchmark menu! So there is definitely something werid going on.

Most mining software, including XMRig, requires a pool in order to be benchmarked. Do you have a pool enabled for the profit switcher (Options dialog, Profit switching section) where CryptonightV7 is available, for example Nicehash?

There seems to be a real problem with X16r.

Every morning I wake up and my most profitable rig is not mining anything at all, because it was mining X16r and then it just stopped overnight and did not start mining anything else.

I am losing a lot of profit because of this.

PLEASE FIX...
Has the mining software crashed multiple times? If crashed, it will be noted on the Notifications tab and you will see what mining software, algorithm and pool that was active then the crash happend. By default Awesome Miner will restart a crashed mining process, but if it fails too many times within a few minutes, Awesome Miner will give up. You can configure how many times Awesome Miner should try to restart a miner with frequent crashes in the Options dialog, Advanced section: "Restart attemps on process crash".

Patrike,
I have a question for you and anyone else who can help.

Yesterday night 4500 miners lost 6 hours of mining on all rigs on ZERGPOOL that was added last month by Patrike in default configuration. see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2759935.new#new

The issue we all have is that Awesome Miner does not have any protection against this type of problem, when X17 algo, an algo that has almost NO VOLATILITY, suddenly increased profitability by 10 times, from 1 to 15k.

I think that Awesome Miner can implement an option to protect miners from forks by saving average volatility for a coin/algo by storing the min & max values for profitability and computing volatility. If the algo exceeds double of previous maximum  profitability AM can send a warning message of a possible FORK and if it exceeds 3 times the maximum previous profitability it can disable that algo for a number of minutes (all parameters can be configurable). Something similar to the functionality we have in AM to disable pools without accepted shares for a number of minutes.

When users told ZERGPOOL moderators on Discord channel about the issue that they had for 6 hours and about their loss, the moderators from zergpool Discord channel started swearing and said that it is only miner's fault that miners did not disable X17 / XVG, but miners said that it was pool's administrator responsibility to disable the coins with problems, because miners can't monitor 180 coins all the time, that's why miners pay the pool fee, right ?

Patrike, I do think that zergpool went from 1k miners to 6k miners only thanks to you, it happened when you was kind and added their pool to default AM configuration. We, the miners and users who selected zergpool from AM's configuration feel that the pool does not respect us when they are talking with a lot of bad words to us ans swearing us when we told them that they did nothing for 6 hours the Discord channel moderator answered on their Discord channel (please check) this "phear - Today at 11:19 AM : you just spreading sh*t on ventilator" .  I do think it's not fair to be treated with such lack of respect from their end after we informed them that they should disable XVG from their pool. We, the 4500 miners from zergpool at that time on x17, lost 6 hours of mining and we deserve some apologies at least, because we had thousands of rigs loosing money, not them.

Patrike, can you please send them a message, because you added that pool on AM's default configuration, and you can remove them from AM, and you helped them to have so many miners, miners that are AM's miners, miners that deserve respect from their end,  maybe they will understand that at least we deserve some respect and we do not deserve to be sweated like that.

Thank you very much, I hope you understand us, we spent a lot of money to buy the RIGs.
  
I understand your frustration, but you should just deselect Zergpool yourself from your list if they have crossed a line for you. I don't think it should just be removed from Awesome miner. Some people may only be using it for a couple algorithms, (and they may be ones you don't even use) but those people may really want it as an option. I'd like to see MORE pools added (Blazepool, and Yiimp pool for starters) Even if you hate a pool and never want to use it, it will help you to have it in the list because other people who do have it selected will switch to that pool, leaving less miners at the pool that you DO prefer, and also, everybodys miners won't all go to the same place at the same time if there are more pools available.

They are at 6k miners from below 1k miners just because of us, AM miners that selected zergpool from AM settings.
ZergPool should be aware that as easy it was to skyrocket to 6k they can go back to below 1k if zergpool is removed from AM.
Miners simply had no option because X17 is one of the most popular algos from all pools.
AM's performance and credibility relies on pool's statistics that if they send for 6 hours statistics for X17 that are 10 times higher than any other pool, than AM did nothing to prevent it and is the one that could be blamed also.
Mining works  as a synergy between Awesome Miner and and pools like zergpool. If the pools send statistics that are 10 times higher for 6 hours, than AM's credibility is affected because its lack of protection and users will try to use any other mining software that offers them stability and reliability. For 6 hours, 4500 miners had no protection from AM and mined on a fork and pool administrators did nothing for 6 hours as you can see from everybody's graphs.

don't know how it's all AM's fault and all those extra 5k miners are all AM users....but if you think it's ZergPool that was reporting false data, you were pretty wrong, first XVG forked due to the attack, and major pool shuts down to implement the fork etc. and difficulty reported by WTM also coincides with the btc/mh reported by the active pools. Low difficulty, high profit...there's nothing ppl can do with things out of their control. Sorry if the Zerg hasn't been polite in their discord channels, but maybe the other way round not everyone is tolerant being accused of scammers, hash stealers ... etc.

BTW, I don't use any of the online services except NH pretty much as a failover protection only. So I haven't been zerged....point being...if you care about profits so much, you should really be choosing the pools carefully.

Also, don't assume the pools are making profit over this. Did you see MPH's announcement on MUSIC now? as well as other occassions that chainsplit happens at both HashRefinery, Ahashpool...that they displayed good gestures that they still paid for the orphaned blocks that were mined on the wrong chain...As someone who might predict, dear you would not appreciate it at all since you believe that they made so much money off you by all means through your accusations against them all the time. But TBH, they are not obliged to compensate you when sh*ts like that happens...None of the pool ops, SW devs other than XVG team for example, are responsible for attacks on the XVG network in the past days, and yet, would XVG team compensate you? not at all!

***
Back to topic regarding the solution however, you can simply support my suggestion that the implementation of rules based on profit (globally/individuallly) can be actuated. If I can set miners to profit switch when profit falls below certain threshold, who says I can't do it the other way round? when it got absurdly high that I can disable a pool until the coin's stat return to what I deemed "normal".

Support my proposition, this is not the smartest workaround, but it does what you asked...a safeguard that you could define the threshold values yourself and hopefully works while you are sleeping.


What do you think ?
When all the other 4 pools have no issue, and when zergpool has this issue for 6 hours making 4500 miners loose all for 6 hours, it's something from bad management of the pool, right ?
Also AM should implement a protection against this type of  behavior from pools, right ?

Once I get the current development release done and released as v4.7 I will start investigating how Awesome Miner can be improved to detect more of these pool related issues.

I agree that Awesome Miner should be able to analyze and find pools that are reporting unrealistic numbers in terms of profitability. Please keep in mind that when you mine on Zergpool and similar, Awesome Miner may not have full insight in the coin details of what you are actually mining. The profit information is however always known.

2911  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [Awesome Miner]- Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 5000 miners on: April 06, 2018, 10:40:40 AM
Having an issue with AvalonMiner 841 and  Awesome Miner connection with the 841's API.

I set the W:192.xxx.xx.xxx in cgminer, and Awesome Miner can connect. However, every few minutes, it disconnects for a minute.
It reconnects, with 0 hour/min uptime and does so over and over. While I have the API access set, cgminer shows no info, but when
I reset the API to default and disconnect from AM, the uptime is correct. The 841 is running the entire time, showing no disconnection
from my pool.

Should the API access ip be entered differently?

My other miners, not AvalonMiners, are having no issues with AM at all during this issue. My AM is up to date as well. TIA!!!
Are the miners on the same local network? If not, it might be that you need to increase the API connection timeout a bit. Even if on the local network, it could be that these Avalon miners are a bit slow in their responses sometimes. Please go to Options dialog, Advanced section and increase "Miner API connection timeout".
2912  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [Awesome Miner]- Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 5000 miners on: April 06, 2018, 10:37:51 AM
Bug v4.6.5 (perhaps in the previous 2 releases ase well
=====

Most of the remote miners will show interface offline error (some green text, some with red text) when you have option window/profile editor opened for a little while (leave it for 3 minutes and it surely kicks in)

The miners are actually still online and API are accessible and so on, just AM not seem to probe, reading them properly while the Options Window is opened so might be an issue with Remote Agent in the latest builds
Just to make sure, is it "Service Offline" as in Awesome Miner is unable to connect to Remote Agent, or "Interface offline" as in Remote Agent is unable to connect to the API of the running mining software?

I wasn't able to reproduce this one. I simply opened the Options dialog and waited for a while. Do you know if there are any additional steps I need to take here?

Can you check the following points as well?
1) Verify that the same version of Awesome Miner and Remote Agent is installed. Mixing versions are not supported and may result in miners being stopped or not started correctly
2) Verify that only a single Awesome Miner main application is connected to the Remote Agent application. Two Awesome Miner applications cannot connect to the same Remote Agent
3) Verify that the remote host is only added once in Awesome Miner. Open the Options dialog, Managed Hosts section and verify that no duplicates exists.

I will investigate any changes in the recent versions that might be related as well.

Update:

I was able to take note on what I was doing when it happens a few more times today, so the symptoms are:

(almost) all miners display "Service Offline", but the stats keep updating for majority of them

Only happens when I have sub-dialog open within the Options...so once I was configuring pool groups in the pools Dialogue

The other times, I was in the middle of creating / editing rules and had the editing dialog open for some time.

Best Regards,

Just in case anyone else also run into this issue - I've managed to find the scenario and made a correction for it in development version 4.6.7.

Does Claymore 11.3 support Cryptonight7?  I thought it does.  AM is disabling selection of Claymore 11.3 when you select Cryptonight7.
The very latest development preview (4.6.7) should automatically add the flag for CryptonightV7. Can you please verify?
2915  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [Awesome Miner]- Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 5000 miners on: April 06, 2018, 10:33:06 AM
Also, an unrelated feature request - and I hope this is something simple to implement. Please make the columns customizable for the compact list. I dont particularly care about accept/reject stats, but there's a lot of other information in the summary tab that I'd like constantly displayed near each miner - such as the windows uptime, miner uptime, software being used, the worker/pool, number of GPUs active, individual GPU temps/fan/hash, etc. When I maximize the window the majority of the main window is whitespace, and I have to constantly click each miner to find out simple information like windows uptime. I just want to be able to tell at a glance which machines have low uptime so I can identify the unstable ones. Or I want to know which wallet its mining to at a glance, or which rigs/profiles I didnt configure to use a new software, etc.

And you really, really need to be able to make it possible to ctrl-click miners in different groups. I manage multiple mining farms and I have to keep them in groups so each client can only see information pertaining to their own miners. But when I want to upload new software, apply templates, start/stop miners etc - I have to literally do everything 5 times. Especially when stuff like uploading custom software locks the UI, when you have 50+ miners to update but you can only do 10 at once, I have to constantly babysit it. Something that I could have clicked once, walked away and came back a few minutes later when its all done instead takes a very long time because I have to wait for one to finish to start the next. If I didnt have them in groups I could do this with ease, so I'm between a rock and a hard place. To a lesser extent this is also a problem with the benchmarking - you've been good about adding new software, but in order for me to know whether this software is worth using I need to bench it. We have profit profiles because every software gives different results on every hardware - so obviously I need to bench it separately for each profile. That wouldnt be a big deal if I could bench all 8 of my profiles simultaneously on 8 different rigs, but instead its another thing that takes over an hour of work to do correctly because it locks up the entire UI and I have to go one by one.

Both of these related issues can be incredibly frustrating because kind of the whole point of AM to me is that it makes managing large farms far more practical - but actually using AM with large farms is an exercise in frustration because of UI/UX decisions that result in SO MUCH manual busywork! It may make managing the farms possible but it also makes it so aggravatingly time consuming that I'll be honest, I'm still constantly looking for alternatives to AM that offer a similar level of configurability but require less time and have more informative/flexible UIs. Like AM has great features, but the UI actively makes me not want to use those features because it takes so long to accomplish simple things.
Please check out this feature that allow you to customize the content of the Progress field:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/customizefield.aspx
You can get Windows uptime, miner update and a number of other values. If there are specific fields you miss, like more GPU related information, I can simply expose that as well.

I will enable multi-select of miners across different groups in the next release. It's a very small change and hopefully it will make the experience better for you.

I will also make the benchmark dialog non-modal, making it possible for you to have it running while you continue working with the Awesome Miner main window at the same time. This also makes it possible to benchmarks to different miners at the same time.

Thanks for all feedback.

Absolutely fantastic! I really appreciate your responsiveness to user requests.

Regarding the progress field customization, I'm a coder myself and I tried to achieve this myself a while back, but I found that the documentation of the objects and methods for the C# scripting was somewhat lacking and I couldn't figure it out. I also exclusively use the compact view and it didnt appear to function in that view anyway.
The Customize Progress dialog allows configuration for both the List and Compact List modes. Please let me know what information field that you think I should add to this feature, like GPU fan.

where is the button to add a bat.file

ccminer -a x16r  -o stratum+tcp://cryptopool.party:3636 -u RSb332DHgAdb3v5qasj1MEbUtYBRc8Szmb.1060com -p c=RVN,d=12 -i 21 
pause

where to write the second line pause?!

-i 21 & pause
not worket!!!
What you need here is one pool (the New Pool button) where you specify something like:
URL: stratum+tcp://cryptopool.party:3636
Worker: RSb332DHgAdb3v5qasj1MEbUtYBRc8Szmb.1060com
Password: c=RVN,d=12
You can also go to the Command Line section and add "-i 21"

Then you create a Managed Miner, where you select mining software for X16r algorithm and select the pool you added:

What is the purpose of the pause command? If you need to troubleshoot a miner, please use the Diagnostics button in the toolbar.

Since the latest development release v4.6.6, it is no longer possible to monitor stats from Excavator v1.4.4a as AM shows "Interface Offline".

When you see "Interface offline", please select the miner and generate an API report via the toolbar Tools -> API Report. It's probably something in the response from the Excavator miner that Awesome Miner cannot interpret correctly.
In general, Excavator should work fine with the latest Awesome Miner.

Hello Patrike, I Got 4.6.6 Version with some remote miners (agent updated to 4.6.6 too) configured in profit miner.

Sometimes, when one of my miners  (still the same) switch to Ethrereum with Claymore,  the Awesome Gui shows me the "interface offline" message.

I configured "claymores dual ethereum miner"  section in the profit switching profile  with command line options -platform 2 -mport -4028 (to get read only management)

Looking at the agent log I noticed some errors; i would like to know if it could be related with interface offline error i get.

Please remove the command line "-mport -4028" and it should start working.

If you manually set the API port to something Awesome Miner didn't expect, Awesome Miner will not connect to the correct port and the result will be "Interface offline".

Also, an unrelated feature request - and I hope this is something simple to implement. Please make the columns customizable for the compact list. I dont particularly care about accept/reject stats, but there's a lot of other information in the summary tab that I'd like constantly displayed near each miner - such as the windows uptime, miner uptime, software being used, the worker/pool, number of GPUs active, individual GPU temps/fan/hash, etc. When I maximize the window the majority of the main window is whitespace, and I have to constantly click each miner to find out simple information like windows uptime. I just want to be able to tell at a glance which machines have low uptime so I can identify the unstable ones. Or I want to know which wallet its mining to at a glance, or which rigs/profiles I didnt configure to use a new software, etc.

And you really, really need to be able to make it possible to ctrl-click miners in different groups. I manage multiple mining farms and I have to keep them in groups so each client can only see information pertaining to their own miners. But when I want to upload new software, apply templates, start/stop miners etc - I have to literally do everything 5 times. Especially when stuff like uploading custom software locks the UI, when you have 50+ miners to update but you can only do 10 at once, I have to constantly babysit it. Something that I could have clicked once, walked away and came back a few minutes later when its all done instead takes a very long time because I have to wait for one to finish to start the next. If I didnt have them in groups I could do this with ease, so I'm between a rock and a hard place. To a lesser extent this is also a problem with the benchmarking - you've been good about adding new software, but in order for me to know whether this software is worth using I need to bench it.

- Adjust profit calculations for Yiimp-based pools to actual performance based on past payouts compared to estimates. Configured in Options dialog, Statistics section.
awesome!
Thanks! This feature is implemented in the Awesome Miner cloud servers, where I currently collect statistics from Zpool, Zergpool. AHashpool and HashRefinery every hour. Then it's being processed and a percentage value is calculated.

What's good is that you don't have to run your own Awesome Miner for a period of time to collect this data yourself. I can also make changes and optimizations and everyone will get it right away. Because I store the original pool statistics in the cloud all the time, any new calculations can use all old pool statistics as well.

I'm very much open to any feedback and discussions about how to improve this. At least the infrastructure for the feature is in place now.

This is definitely a great step - its good to have this information, however it begs the question of how to properly use this information.

I've never thought the pools were necessarily stealing or anything, just that the delay between the mining and exchange and the occasional difficulty spikes and drops accounted for most of the variation between them. So looking over the instances where all the pools are mining the same algo, there isnt a clear pattern where one pool has consistently better performance than the other.

Anyway, from the description given, it sounds like all AM is doing is taking the reported 24hr actual, the reported 24hr estimate, and then comparing the two over time to give a score for how close the estimate is getting to the actual.  

If this is correct, there are then two obvious questions:

First...this feature was highly requested because of mistrust of the pools. If all that's being done is comparing statistics reported by the pool, does this really solve the problem? How do we know the pools are actually reporting an honest 24/hr estimate or actual?

Second - what does this say about which option we should choose now? Does this correction factor modify the reported actual rate to come to a theoretically more accurate estimate - meaning that we should now choose actual to get this more accurate estimate? Or does it correct the 24hr estimate to a now more accurate estimate - meaning that we should choose 24hr estimate? Or is choosing current more viable now, because the stats collected by AM now account for the variation - so if a coin is being reported as currently being super profitable, if it remains more profitable after the AM correction, it's probably legitimate and worth taking advantage of?

Overall I think it would be helpful if you could be more specific about how this calculation is made, what the time window is, etc. It's a step in the right direction but it's not really clear at all how to best take advantage of it.

Also, along the same lines, I think it would be potentially even more useful if AM were to calculate some sort of variance factor for pools/algos - in other words how much profitability varies throughout the hour/day. There are some coins/algos that are very stable, and some that constantly fluctuate between high and low profitability on what seems like a minute by minute basis. I've had to disable a few algorithms simply because they keep causing constant switches for no good reason. Even with a 1 minute interval, I could watch revenue go from an extremely high number to a ridiculously low one. It'd be nice to put a number on that so I could have some data as to which algos/pools are too inconsistent to be worth my time. I want to be mining the most profitable coin I can be at any given time - and 24hrs is too long a time window for most of the coins on yiimp pools.

This information is critical because these pools are reporting averages, and outliers throw off averages. (Using simple and unrealistic numbers to make the point) Two algos could report 10 mBTC/GH for 24 hours - but one could be getting to this number by being within +/- 5% of 10 mBTC/GH for 24hrs straight, and the other could be .01 mBTC/GH for 23.9 of those hours with a few minutes or even seconds of 1000 mBTC/GH every day. Mining the latter is a waste of my time when even a 1 minute interval leaves my miners on the wrong side of that for up to a minute - those minutes add up when you've got lots of algos acting like this. I mean I certainly wouldn't want to use 24/hr estimates or averages if it meant my miners were potentially making nearly nothing 99% of the time and hoping that 1% of extreme profitability actually delivers enough to make up for it.

Anyway, this is still good data once it's clear what to do with it. Eventually I'd hope for it to get to a point where AM can identify between consistent earners and inconsistent earners, and use that information to help us exploit legitimate profitability spikes while mitigating the harm of profitability drops. Even something as simple as the profit switching being much more responsive and cutting a poor earner off early would be useful. Like as far as I can tell the stats update and switching intervals are not even in sync - there is absolutely no good reason it should continue to mine something for another second when the stats update showed profitability fell off a cliff, but there's still up to a minute left before it hits the switching interval and does something about it.


I will soon update the web site with more information on how this is working. Right now Awesome Miner collect information once per hour and uses the information from the last three days to compare the reported Actual with the reported Estimate value. The percentage is then used to calculate a new Revenue and Profit value from the pools - no matter if you run it on Current or 24h avg statistics mode.

It will only work as long as the pools report these values correct. If a pool want to steal hashrate from you, it's still possible.

Finding out unrealistic high values would be another feature and is of course also of importance.
