Do you have mysql or any other database engine running? It's mandatory, also, bitcoinD should be running prior to launching pushpool

Yeah, mysqld running and bitcoind running as well. How strange, it just exits right after launching pretty much ... I've recompiled it, restarted processes - nothing. What am I missing here?

EDIT: Fixed it. Looks like I had the some issue someone else had, permissions problem. I changed all references of '/tmp' to /home/user1'

Woohoo! That consumed way too much time ... I wish pushpoold had kicked out an error or something about it.

Yeah you are find out all my frustration I incurred in the IRC chat, You really do just have to "play with it", server.json.
One thing is to make sure that you set your bitcoind RPC details correctly at the end of the server.json file.
The next thing to do is to change all the ports to something different, one-by-one. As I released the server.json file with the original but better commenting, which means its the original that your seeing. On my personal VPS I had to change one of the RPC ports for it to initialise for some reason port 8333 was open and unknown in the ping scan but when I changed it to something like 8338. It finally initialised, after that I started getting connected clients from my miner but pwdb query errors then i knew right away it was MySql database problem so I fiddled around a tid-bit and realised i was connected to my local database on my computer and not the local database on my VPS server. So i fixed those details and then all of a sudden I started getting "RPC not responding from my server" the second I uploaded the correct database details. Well after much frustration I realised that push pool dosen't properly alert the user that it was a bad user name and password and/or port number. So I typed in the right port number with the right database details and vola... after 18hours I got my pushpoold server to work..

This was my whole experience on pushpool, and what problems was caused by it..... Its the only I go off of because pushpool fails to give out logging messages

Hi. Me and my friend turlando are triyng to set up pushpool.
On an old server all went fine, but on a new server, with the same config (except for some passwords), we get this error:
[1307382484.476195] tcp socket: Address family not supported by protocol
This is the config:
Code:

{
   # network ports
   "listen" : [

      { "port" : 8342 },

}

We did some search but we didn't found anything. Someone can help us?

I am having an issue with Installation... I am running Ubuntu 11.04 Server and when I get to the point to configure the files for install I get:
 I Enter this:
Code:
./configure --prefix=/home/[b]my_user_name[/b]/pushpool/


I Get This:
Quote
configure: command not found


Am I missing something that needs to be installed in Ubuntu?

Sorry I am kind of a Linux Newb.

./configure --prefix=folder you want to install

make sure that you acknowledge that this is working directory after the "--prefix=" usually your home folder other then that why it doesn't recognise "./configure" command(notice the ./) type it in exactly as I have except for the prefix part.

Made sure and it def. does... I am signed in as root so its not a permission issue... After installing a few extra packages like build-essentials I now get this.


Code:
bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

Yeah it looks like configure isn't there, I would try downloading pushpool tarball again,
Latest release: http://yyz.us/bitcoin/pushpool-0.4.1.tar.gz
(You may have downloaded the developer version of pushpool)

I experienced an odd problem with pushpool.

I got it setup, and accepting shares against a bitcoin --testnet client setup correctly with RPC. So, everything appeared to work. I even found a few blocks, and those submitted fine.

However, at a difficulty of 38, and >1000 shares, it had only found 2 blocks.  Huh That's either really bad luck, or something was broken.

So I tried pointing the miners at bitcoind directly, and they found 3 blocks in a few minutes (as expected for the hashrate).

ls -a:

These are two example configuration files, one for pushpool, one for blkmond which is used to notify pushpool of new blocks when longpolling is used

I think you mean it found shares, unless your running a mining farm with a bunch of computers, if you find 3 blocks in a few minutes that should be a problem. but then again a finding a few shares every couple of minutes isn't really a problem either. I run at about 85000Khash/s and i find a share on average 2-3 minutes.

If your getting alot of connected ports and no connected miners then your most likely connecting on the wrong port. When i use poclbm I specifcly have to use the -p flag and write the port number and not type with the --host flag, other wise it just dosnet connect at all for some reason. Hope this helps!

Nope, I mean blocks. I threw ~3GH/s at it for a few minutes, and it was running against testnet (Difficulty == 38). Running against pushpool, I got tons of shares but very few blocks (2 blocks with >1000 shares). Running directly against bitcoind it found 3 blocks in a few minutes.

Hey! I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and everything is setup correctly, as a client attempts to connect this error is produced

I installed pushpool on a fresh ubuntu 11, but for some reason it seems the configuration files are not recognised. I tripple checked that the .conf and .json files are in the right folders, but bitcoind doesnt seem to see the file, it just keeps asking for it. If I set rpcpassword and rpcuser when starting bitcoind it seems to start. If I then try to start pushpool I get a "json parse error".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
