Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Miners terminate after about a day

on: August 17, 2015, 03:27:59 PM

I created a script to check for the cgminer process, checkminer.sh:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
ps cax | grep cgminer > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
/bin/bash /root/launchminer.sh
fi

Then created launchminer.sh:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
screen -dmS cgminer sudo /root/cgminer/cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:0.57 -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u [mybtcaddress] -p x  --bmsc-voltage 0800 --bmsc-freq 1286

then using crontab run the script every minute:

Code:

1 * * * * /bin/bash /root/checkminer.sh

Seems to be working to keep the miners online.

cd /root/cgminer screen -dmS cgminer sudo ./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:0.57 -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u btcaddress.0 -p x --bmsc-voltage 0800 --bmsc-freq 1286 in rc.local I'm wondering if minera would be a better Raspberry Pi platform to use instead of raspbian and using the auto-reconnect/reboot feature. I tried loading minera but I didn't spend enough time on it to get it running.

I am a new miner, FYI. Will the screen command time out after a certain amount of time or is my controller shutting down the process? I managed to get two U3 miners online controlled by a raspberry pi b+ with the screen command. It's happened twice where both miners go offline after about a day of mining. I've set the miners to execute from command line with screen in rc.local using cgminer. Yesterday I executed screen -x cgminer and left it on in the terminal only to find later both were offline. The terminal window said screen cgminer terminated. I rebooted and both miners came back on.
