It's getting there now finally; looks like we did have a couple issues...

*** ABN (Anti-bot-net changes) - ABN is no longer required ***



All, we have been discussing potential future growth changes for BBP: https://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?topic=461.msg6381#msg6381
and following the suggestions from the DSS model, showing that we need a positive UPD (+1 or more new user per day), and also with the complexity of requiring people to unlock wallets and support ABNs in the pool(s) is probably not worth the benefit, since we are going to be moving to a new environment soon with stronger anti-bot-net possibilities (rewards for cancer mining/aids, limiting rewards to PODC, etc).

In light of this, I have disabled ABN (the sanctuary vote is largely pointing to this).  This is primarily being done now - so the devs can finish the NOMP pool now with simplicity in mind for the new users.

So, starting now, you no longer need an ABN to mine BBP.  The NOMP pool has been updated to pay equally. 

You may now move to the easy setup, and you no longer need to send single threaded abn's to pool.biblepay.org to mine.

The easy start guide has been modified for NOMP.

Pool.biblepay.org is being modified now to make payouts equal across the board.

(I am analyzing nomp's share rejects today, and will make a post ASAP about that).

Sorry for the delay; I added windows32 to our build process for the BiblePay CPU miner.

Please try this one on windows32:
https://github.com/biblepay/cpuminer/tree/master/binaries

bbpminer32.exe

I just tested it on windows7 and it appears to work.

I'll be announcing the change in ABN requirements asap.  Of course with the end of the month, there is a lot going on.

I'm looking into the invalid shares.

Yeah, I went ahead and upgraded it to the new version, give me another 5 mins to restart it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I wanted to mention this, I believe we are the First coin to support Windows Sancs!

If anyone wants to try it, go for it.  I believe it will work, since we are the only coin with watchman-in-the-wall compiled in.

BiblePay - Core Wallet
1.4.5.1-Leisure Upgrade

- Prevent wallet from crashing when using getblock to query a block with
missing element

** Release Ready **

Chainz has been updated.

They are purring like a kitten again, as usual.

EDIT:  Thanks Togo!

Yeah, the pool actually checks the name with base58, then tells the client to say unauthorized.  So another words he probably stopped mining until he sees the message.

Yeah, I also just turned on the feature where the wallet will show 'unauthorized' if they enter an invalid username.

New release will be out in 30 minutes to fix this;

In the mean time, linux users - and Togo you can upgrade using git pull.

I'll notify chainz right now.

That does not make me very happy - Im glad we got past 153103.

I confirm that if you type this command, you will crash.

I believe we will need to work on this issue today and fix this next.

Ill make this the next high priority.

I am about to propose that we disable ABNs based on the DSS thread winning, and, the complexity its causing in the pool reqs and for the sake of onboarding new users.

So I just temporarily disabled ABN reqs while I put this code test together in nomp without abns; I will make a post for this today.

EDIT: Ill make sure I add my vote first, but its clearly looking like it will be approved.

Great!  Yeah, I see how opaque the payment system is.
We probably need to dump the data out of redis into something we can understand and make at least a running transaction log.

If we had the miner address, the payout amount and height in a running log we could at least expose that on the web and make sense of whats happening.

First let me switch over to the new wallet.

You will be in for a pleasant surprise when installing this one.  Compared to pool.biblepay.org.  This one can be installed on a linux box with only a couple paragraphs.
Ill be sure to update the build instructions as it was pain free on both boxes.

The entire headache Ive had this week had to do with ABNs.

Let's get it to be stable and working properly first, and be an appropriate replacement for pool.biblepay.

Then, I will enable the github "issues" on that branch also - the branch is already checked in, but its not ready for github issues quite yet.

EDIT:
Nomp does have a configuration for recouping costs; we should expose that under the home page.  Ill look at doing that also.

Ill also look at MH/KH.

Thanks, I am looking at making a dedicated wallet for the pool next (in contrast to sharing the wallet with the other pool).

One thing I have to do first however is check to see if ABNs are actually preventing us from mining.  Im working on this next.

Oh, interesting, I think Ive only been building the win64 build. 
Alright, we can potentially add one more build to the build script.

First, let me take a look at these ABN issues; we have a discussion going on in the other thread about disabling ABN in the current vote.

Ill take a look at this next.

No crashes have occurred in 1007 for any of the win boxes.

If you crashed, please take a screenshot of 'bbpminer -x1', then one of the crash, then one of the command line, and the events that led up to the crash.

For Nomp, it only takes the BBP address currently.  For example here is my command line for windows:

bbpminer-x86.exe -ostratum+tcp://nomp.biblepay.org:3008 --user=BEsraanMpV3tzQ4dhJV1y9EkdEvf8MonF8
