1  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: How to start your own mining pool using bitcoind + eloipool. on: November 08, 2016, 04:58:41 AM
So... funny thing...

I start looking into starting up a pool again. So I come across this thread thinking "oh good, step by step". Then I realize, oh $#!t ... I WROTE THIS.

I'm happy that this is helping people still, I'm working on getting mine back up and running on 16.04.1 LTS and have found a couple of things in the guide that could be improved on. Currently
re-syncing my blockchain.

Have just finished installing and setting up. Managed to get through everything reasonably well.

Started mining via the testnet to confirm all is functioning only to get this error below

A known fix is to change the line in python-bitcoinrpc/bitcoinrpc/authproxy.py
somewhere around line 72

Code:

self.__auth_header = "Basic %s" % base64.b64encode(authpair)

to read:
Code:

self.__auth_header = "Basic %s" % base64.b64encode(authpair).decode()

Unfortunately, and not knowing how to code at all(Close friend who does do a lot of coding and away overseas at the moment) has actually banned me form coding, apparently I am  Huh
Quote
"a menace to all society if I attempt to code")
The closest line to the answer above is
Code:
   self.__auth_header = b'Basic ' + base64.b64encode(authpair)

I added the ".decode" as instructed above to this

Code:
   self.__auth_header = b'Basic ' + base64.b64encode(authpair).decode

But this prevents the miner form connecting or finding the pool at all.  Shocked

I have spent hours on this, and have exhausted my frustration.. Cry

Could anyone assist with this.   Grin

Cheers


You have to add the () to the end of decode.

In programing, parentheses "()" is where you put the input for a function or identifies a function. Because the "decode" is a function, it requires that parentheses at the end.

I'm overseas right now as well, but the magic of the internet allows such collaboration :-)

I can't comment on the error, I've never seen it.

As for the calculation of speed (in php even):
Code:
$shares = 200; //Number of shares of a given time.
$timeLen = 10; //The given time in seconds.


$hashrate = pow(2, 32) * $shares / $timeLen;         //85899345920
$hashrate = $hashrate / 1000000000;                   //85.899345920
$hashrate = round($hashrate, 2);                        //85.9

returns 85.9 which is 85.9 Gh/s

1000000000 could be changed to:
1000000000000 for Th/s
1000000 for Mh/s
1000 for Kh/s

However if using VarDiff you need to modify your DB and config.py to log the Minimum difficulty of each share a 2 diff share = 2 shares, 32 diff = 32 shares.

Or you can join my pool... just saying.
NoctumDesign

Thats awesome, I appreciate that. How are you pulling shares per time length though? I understand grabbing a specific item in a column in a table, but over a specific time frame? Are you doing a comparison with the time column?

EDIT: Here's a new one for you:

Every now and then I see this in the log:

Or this:

    data = self.socket.recv(buffer_size)
socket.error: [Errno 110] Connection timed out

Is this normal? Also, how are you guys calculating hashrates? The sharelog isnt providing much information in terms of hashrates. Should we be deducing this from the "shares" table and "time" column? If so, how are you doing this (in PHP if possible, if not thats fine)?

7  Bitcoin / Mining support / How to start your own mining pool using bitcoind + eloipool. on: March 02, 2014, 05:21:27 AM
This was a struggle for me. So my struggle bears fruit for you!

Eloipool is a Python3 based pool server with stratum support. You can read more about it
on Luke-Jr's post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=61731.0

I would like to thank Luke-Jr, jgarzik, and the folks at the
following threads for helping me get this sucker rolling.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=61731.0;all
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=158105.0;all


This is example is being installed on Ubuntu (Precise). You may have to adjust the downloading of packages to fit
your system.

1. Add the bitcoin repository to your sources and update (ubuntu)

Code:
add-apt-repository ppa:bitcoin/bitcoin

Code:
apt-get update

2. Install bitcoind

Code:
apt-get install bitcoind

3. Run bitcoind

Code:
bitcoind -daemon

You should receive an error that says something like this:

Code:
 lsError: To use the "-daemon" option, you must set a rpcpassword in the configuration file:
/home/user/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
It is recommended you use the following random password:
rpcuser=bitcoinrpc
rpcpassword=*password redacted*          <----This password is randomly generated by bitcoind
(you do not need to remember this password)
The username and password MUST NOT be the same.
If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readable-only file permissions.
It is also recommended to set alertnotify so you are notified of problems;
for example: alertnotify=echo %s | mail -s "Bitcoin Alert" admin@foo.com

4. Edit your bitcoin.conf file (at ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf) to read

Code:
server=1
rpcuser=bitcoinrpc
rpcpassword=*the password in the error above*
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
logtimestamps=1

5. Run bitcoind again

Code:
bitcoind -daemon

If you check the log file ~/.bitcoin/debug.log you should see it start the block download.
This syncs up with the network. This will take a long time so run this now and you can finish
set up. If you want a better visual representation and your system has a desktop installed,
install bitcoin-qt (apt-get intall bitcoin.qt). By leaving it up you can watch the progress
bar at the bottom.

6. Make eloipool directory

Pick a directory where you want to store eloipool.

I used "/bitcoin". This is in the root directory and different than "~/.bitcoin"

Code:
mkdir /bitcoin

7. Install python 3.2

Code:
apt-get install python3.2 python3.2-dev

8. Download python-bitcoinrpc

Code:
cd /bitcoin
git clone https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc

Make sure you check out an older commit due to bugs with the current commit:

Code:
cd python-bitcoinrpc
git checkout -b 770881c8bd9b1f92427290270b37a28751cf9df0

Then go back to the main folder

Code:
cd ../../

9. Download python-base58

Code:
git clone git://gitorious.org/bitcoin/python-base58

10. Download and compile midstate

This is the only one you will have to compile yourself.

Code:
git clone http://gitorious.org/midstate/midstate
cd midstate

We have to edit midstate's Makefile to adhere to our system. Verify your python
flags are correct first by running these two commands:

Code:
python3.2-config --ldflags
python3.2-config --cflags

The output of these should match the last entry in the CFLAGS line and LDFLAGS line.

I edited mine from this:

Code:
CFLAGS = -march=native -Wall -funroll-all-loops -O3 -fstrict-aliasing -Wall -std=c99 -I/usr/include/python3.2
LDFLAGS = -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -lpython3.2

to this:

Code:
CFLAGS = -march=native -Wall -funroll-all-loops -O3 -fstrict-aliasing -Wall -std=c99 -I/usr/include/python3.2mu
LDFLAGS = -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -lpython3.2mu

Then make

Code:
sudo make

Then go back
Code:
cd ../

11. Download eloipool

Code:
sudo git clone git://gitorious.org/bitcoin/eloipool.git
cd eloipool

12. Edit config.py

Copy the file "config.py.example" to "config.py" and edit it.

Code:
cp config.py.example config.py

Change "TrackerAddr" to reflect the address of the local machine's bitcoin wallet.
MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE THIS TO YOUR ADDRESS!

Code:
TrackerAddr = '14tpWuy3pMf8A1zMxysg3rrEhD3bpveXGC'

If you are solo mining with a private pool, comment out the following line:

Code:
CoinbaserCmd = 'echo -e "1\\n$((%d / 100))\\n1579aXhdwvKZEMrAKoCZhzGuqMa8EonuXU"'

Update Template Sources primary and comment out the secondary entry:

Use the rpcuser and rpcpassword you listed in your ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf file
Code:
TemplateSources = (
{
'name': 'primary',
'uri': 'http://rpcuser:rpcpass@localhost:8332'
'priority': 0,
'weight': 1,
}
)

Comment out or delete all entrties in TemplateChecks

Code:
TemplateChecks = (
)

Change UpstreamBitcoindNode to:

Code:
UpstreamBitcoindNode = ('127.0.0.1', 8333)

Change UpstreamNetworkId from testnet to main

Code:
UpstreamNetworkId = b'\xF9\xBE\xB4\xD9'

Disable (comment) transaction-related but workaround:

Code:
#POT = 2

Unless you want to use SQL for sharelogging, comment out all but the entry
with type 'logfile'. In order to use MySQL, you must install PyMySql.

Code:
ShareLogging = (
        {
                'type': 'logfile',
                'filename': 'share-logfile',
                'format': "{time} {Q(remoteHost)} {username} {YN(not(rejectReason))} {dash(YN(upstreamResult))} {dash(rejectReason)} {solution}\n",
        },
)

For your LogFile setting, I recommend changing the backup count depending on your preferences. It backs up every midnight,
and the number reflects how many backups to keep (the oldest being deleted).


13. Create scripts

Go to your "/bitcoin" directory and create a file called "run-bitcoind.sh" and enter the following. NOTE: your paths may
be different depending on where you chose your directory. For this example I used my /bitcoin one.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/bitcoind -daemon -blocknotify=/bitcoin/newblock.sh

Now create the file "newblock.sh" and enter this VERBATIM:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

killall -USR1 eloipool.py

Now change directory into your "eloipool" folder (for me it was /bitcoin/eloipool) and create this
script called run-eloipool.sh. Again, your directories may be different, but leave "./eloipool" as is:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

PYTHONPATH=/bitcoin/python-bitcoinrpc:/bitcoin/python-base58:/bitcoin/midstate \
     nohup ./eloipool.py 2>&1 >/dev/null &

Make sure all the scripts are executable by issuing these commands:

Code:
chmod 0755 /bitcoin/run-bitcoind.sh
chmod 0755 /bitcoin/newblock.sh
chmod 0755 /bitcoin/eloipool/run-eloipool.sh

14. Run!

Bitcoind/bitcoin-qt MUST BE FULLY SYNC'd TO THE NETWORK.

Make sure you're firewalls and port forwarding allows port 3334 on TCP. For a better connection
to the bitcoin network, allow 8333 in as well (such as you notice only 8 connections max when synchronizing)

Make sure all related processes are not running.

I added the scripts and eloipool in case you tried a different setup first:
Code:
killall bitcoind
killall run-bitcoind.sh
killall eloipool.py

Run bitcoind from the script.

Code:
./run-bitcoind.sh

Wait a little bit for bitcoind to start up. Then run eloipool from the script.

Code:
./run-eloipool.sh

To verify that both processes are running, run the following commands. They should return
with a PID and the name of the process. Such as:

Code:
ps -e | grep bitcoin

should return something like:

Code:
26762 ?        03:27:37 bitcoind

Code:
ps -e | grep eloipool.py

should return something like:

Code:
26788 ?	       03:30:00 eloipool.py

15. Check connection

Now test your connecton by pointing your miner at your server with the settings:

user: YourBitcoinAddress
pass: x (this doesnt matter, it is ignored with the allow all setting in config.py)
address: stratum+tcp://IpAddressOrDomainName:3334

An example for bfgminer:
Code:
bfgminer.exe --userpass 134dV6U7gQ6wCFbfHUz2CMh6Dth72oGpgH:snoogins --url stratum+tcp://192.168.0.22:3334

Port 3334 is the port used for the Stratum Protocol.

the result is:

any ideas?
My guess would be a non-BASH default shell...
I found the reason
Code:
p.stdout.readline()
return
Code:
b'-e 1\n'
My default shell is Bash,I use Python 3.3.1 on Ubuntu
If your default shell was BASH, you wouldn't get that result.

i have the same with BASH, python 3.2 , on ubuntu 12.

commenting CoinbaserCmd, may help but it isn't good solution...

I can verify this. I switched my shell to bash and ran the same command. Same issue.

This is a known bug in pymysql. You have to modify pymysql, I can't remember exactly what line or file but I remember finding the solution in a google group somewhere.  I found it with a little googling.

Thats the funny thing though, it WAS working. I am not much of a PHP-fu master to use the data yet, but I knew that was the best way to utilize it for the future.


Also, an update: I started screwing around with things due to the bitcoinrpc bug and fucked up everything so I started from scratch again. Its ok though, since i'm documenting what works for me the more I struggle the easier it will be on others.

Weird.. Other than a couple extra signals, for restarting and stopping, my eloipool is unmolested.

Code:
2014-02-27 10:44:50,958	BitcoinLink	DEBUG	Received block inv over p2p for 0000000000000000fff2604f9110d1af25e302ae2c3bdd8fe4be10dc37c788ac

2014-02-27 10:44:56,920 JSONRPCServer INFO Longpoll woke up 5 clients in 0.092 seconds

and my debug logs only show errors when I have restarted the server.

So do you just get the new block notifications and the standard longpools in your logfile?

Luke-Jr seems to think this is a problem with the bitcoind rpc.  I see this error when bitcoin isn't up to date or still starting.  the first error I've not seen before.

So is there a specific build of the bitcoind rpc that works works?

I use this PPA, for my ubuntu box. It doesn't produce any errors for me.

Interesting, I just checked my repo and I'm using the same one you are (Also ubuntu user)

Greetings! New poster, solved MOST problems. The only problems I have now are:

Code:

    data = self.socket.recv(buffer_size)
socket.error: [Errno 110] Connection timed out

and

Code:

I've solved some of the issues I had already with this thread (thank you very much guys).

Once I get this sucker running without errors I plan on helping out (if thats alright with you luke-jr) by documenting the whole process thoroughly. Also eventually working on a basic frontend.
