Hi, I hope I found the right place for my post.
I am looking for a help to debug a problem I think is something really really small, but still very frustrating for me.
I am currently setting up my machines to use BAMT. BAMT came with Cgminer 2.3.x and it was too old for me so I successfully upgraded Cgminer to version 2.7.4 after first running BAMT fixer for newest BAMT fixes. Mining works for hours straight if I start the miner with command ./cgminer --api-listen --config /etc/bamt/cgminer.conf when in /opt/miners/cgminer/
BUT, my problem is:
If I let BAMT start the miner when machine is started the Cgminer shuts down when system clock reaches HH:MM:01, every single time.
And Cgminer starts again at 15 seconds later (HH:MM:16). This happens if I start the machine, or start the mining by command /etc/init.d/mine start or restart
I guess this might have something do to with me using different version of Cgminer than the one which came with BAMT. New info: I tried with Cgminer 2.3.1f which came with BAMT, no problems with it!
Any ideas for a fix or ways to debug this more? Thank you!
Here is a log from /var/log/bamt.log, which just tells Cgminer is stopped and started again, and stopped again and started again...

And the /etc/init.d/mine which somehow starts/controls(?) mining in BAMT, I have NOT modified this, I think this is important:

And /usr/sbin/start_mining is here http://pastebin.com/z2FC1NL6
and /usr/sbin/stop_mining is here http://pastebin.com/0yJsmFaj
and /usr/sbin/mine is here http://pastebin.com/ZJMRL2cp
these are not modified by me.
