Pushpool - Tech Support

[hotbiscuits]

Willing to pay 1.5 btc to anyone that can tell me how to fix my issue!
I have installed pushpoold following the tutorial on the first page however I am stuck

Whenever I run pushpoold I receive this error: http://puu.sh/3PLK  (After initialised I tried to connect using guiminer from my machine, pushpool is being hosted on a VPS)

my bitcoin.conf:

Code:

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rpcport=8331
rpcallowip=*.*.*.*

and my server.json (With my SQL details removed, however I know they are correct)

Code:

{
	# network ports
	"listen" : [
		# binary protocol (default), port 8342
		{ "port" : 8342 },

		# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8341
		{ "port" : 8341, "protocol" : "http-json" },

		# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
		# with trusted proxy appserver.example.com forwarding
		# requests to us
		{ "port" : 8334, "protocol" : "http-json",
		  "proxy" : "127.0.0.1" },

		# binary protocol, localhost-only port 8338
		{ "host" : "74.63.212.182", "port" : 8338, "protocol" : "binary" }
	],

	# database settings
	"database" : {
		"engine" : "mysql",
		"host" : "localhost",
		"port" : 3306,
		"name" : "---",
		"username" : "---",

		"sharelog" : true,
		"stmt.pwdb":"SELECT `password` FROM `pool_worker` WHERE `username` = ?",
		"stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"

	},

	# cache settings
	"memcached" : {
		"servers" : [
			{ "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 11211 }
		]
	},

	"pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

	# overrides local hostname detection
	"forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

	"log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
	"log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

	# the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
	"longpoll.disable" : false,

	# length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds
	"auth.cred_cache.expire" : 75,

	# RPC settings | Notice how this ISN'T port number 8332 this is becuase the same port number should not becuase inconjunction with the JSON RPC port other wise you'll get 500 errors
	"rpc.url" : "http://127.0.0.1:8331/",
	"rpc.user" : "user",
	"rpc.pass" : "pass",

	# rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
	"rpc.target.rewrite" : true
}

Frankly im completely confused. Also here is a screenshot of my IPtables: http://puu.sh/3PMh
As you can see the ports that i think pushpool use are open... Any suggestions?

[hotbiscuits]

Where is everyone getting the change their port to 8332?

Notice this line:

RPC settings | Notice how this ISN'T port number 8332 this is becuase the same port number should not becuase inconjunction with the JSON RPC port other wise you'll get 500 errors

You're getting those 500 errors.

I might retire from people needing help and paying for support on pushpool haha.

Make sure you can connect to bitcoin rpc on your port 8331. I would recommend changing it to 8332 in both the bitcoin config and in the server.json unless you are using that port for something else.

Something I also see a lot of people doing which is such a security issue is: rpcallowip=*.*.*.*

Set that to frikken rpcallowip=127.0.0.1  If you have bitcoind running on the same machine as your pushpool why would you let everyone on the internet have rpc access to your bitcoin if they can guess your username and password and then drain your wallet?

You're getting a 500 error because two things look like they are trying to hit 8331. Give us a netstat before you start pushpoold.

If you read the codes you would notice that in fact, bitcoin.conf listens on port 8331, and server.json is configured to port 8331. I have no idea where you got the idea otherwise, nowhere is port 8332 used at all. rpcallowip is *.*.*.* because I was directly connecting to bitcoind from my computer to try debug where the issue was.
I dont understand why you pointed out port 8332, its not in there

Actually that is not why he is getting 500 errors I put that their so new comers would change their bitcoin port so users won't have to memorize ports for different pools.

[hotbiscuits]

An interesting note to add to my issue, If I set bitcoin.conf to run on testnet it runs 100% perfectly

Which makes me thing I have got my ports setup correctly, however bitcoin cannot connect to the real network for some reason, does anyone agree with this?


edit: I have just tried installing it on a different server using the same settings and I am still getting error 500s. Can someone please PM me or post their server.json and/or bitcoin.conf (with senstive data removed of course   ) from a working box? I really want to figure this out.


2nd edit: On the second server now, I have the exact same issue still, it connects perfectly to the bitcoin testnet. However the moment I take testnet=1 out of bitcoin.conf, and restart both bitcoind and pushpool I receive error: 500s. Please can someone provide some insight into this. It must be something Im doing wrong...
2 BTC up for grabs to whoever can tell me whats wrong  

Thanks

Notice this line:

yea, that's confusing.  Xenland you should remove that line.

I just set up a new centos server.  It is working.  The config files:


Here's my bitcoin.conf

Code:

# bitcoin.conf configuration file. Lines beginning with # are comments.
# Network-related settings:
# Run on the test network instead of the real bitcoin network.
#testnet=1

# Connect via a socks4 proxy
#proxy=127.0.0.1:9050

##            Quick Primer on addnode vs connect            ##
##  Let's say for instance you use addnode=4.2.2.4          ##
##  addnode will connect you to and tell you about the      ##
##    nodes connected to 4.2.2.4.  In addition it will tell ##
##    the other nodes connected to it that you exist so     ##
##    they can connect to you.                              ##
##  connect will not do the above when you 'connect' to it. ##
##    It will *only* connect you to 4.2.2.4 and no one else.##
##                                                          ##
##  So if you're behind a firewall, or have other problems  ##
##  finding nodes, add some using 'addnode'.                ##
##                                                          ##
##  If you want to stay private, use 'connect' to only      ##
##  connect to "trusted" nodes.                             ##
##                                                          ##
##  If you run multiple nodes on a LAN, there's no need for ##
##  all of them to open lots of connections.  Instead       ##
##  'connect' them all to one node that is port forwarded   ##
##  and has lots of connections.                            ##

        ],

                "stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

        },

        "pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

        # overrides local hostname detection
#       "forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

        "log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
        "log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

        # the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
        "longpoll.disable" : false,

        # length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds

        # RPC settings | Notice how this ISN'T port number 8332 this is becuase the same port number should not becuase inconjunction with the JSON RPC port other wise you'll get 500 errors
        "rpc.url" : "http://mypublicipaddress:8332/",
        "rpc.user" : "masterusername",
        "rpc.pass" : "masteruserpassword",

        # rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
        "rpc.target.rewrite" : true
}

To test to see if it works I start with guiminer.  I point guiminer at the bitcoind port.  The console reads:
 Running command: poclbm.exe --user=masterusername --pass=masteruserpassword -o mypublicipaddress -p 8332 --device=0 --platform=0 --verbose

and it starts to download the block chain.  So I know bitcoind is working and the correct port (8332) is open in my firewall.

now since I'm using pushpoold I can actually close that port in my firewall.  Pushpoold, running on the same machine (127.0.0.1) doesn't need to go
through the firewall.  In server.json I set the pushpoold public address to 8334 in this line:

                # HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
                # with trusted proxy appserver.example.com forwarding
                # requests to us
                { "port" : 8344, "protocol" : "http-json",
                  "proxy" : "mypublicipaddress" },

#mypublicaddress is the public ip address of your machine


In order for pushpoold to work I need to make sure I have a user in mysql, in my case I use:
user: test
pass: x

so running on port 8344 my console shows:
Running command: poclbm.exe --user=test --pass=x -o mypiblicipaddress -p 8344 --device=0 --platform=0 --verbose

The only port you need to open in your firewall is 8344  (8344:tcp)

This setup works for me under Centos 5.6.

I am a total newbie to Ubuntu,
but i could reach the install of the push pool on the server , and get the ./configure to work .
Now the hard part is to put the configure the server.json file . I have a big experience with other scripts like phpbb and vbulletin and joomla , is it the same way ? I make a SQL Database and a user, allocate all the privileges, then i enter the right credentials to the Database information in the raw server.json file, and what about the port of the DB ?  .
Do i need to edit the other ips ? i mean the 127.0.0.1 ? And what address to use to put in the miners ?

Thanks a lot !
Please help

I make a SQL Database and a user, allocate all the privileges

Yep.  

First you need to create a database:

Code:

delimiter $$
CREATE DATABASE `bitcoin` /*!40100 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 */$$

Then you need two mysql tables in that database:

Code:

use bitcoin;

CREATE TABLE `pool_worker` (
  `id` int(25) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `associatedUserId` int(25) NOT NULL,
  `username` varchar(50) default NULL,
  `password` varchar(60) default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  UNIQUE KEY `username` (`username`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=100000 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1$$;

CREATE TABLE `shares` (
  `id` int(25) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `time` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  `epochTimestamp` int(50) NOT NULL,
  `rem_host` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `username` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `our_result` enum('Y','N') NOT NULL,
  `upstream_result` enum('Y','N') default NULL,
  `reason` varchar(50) default NULL,
  `solution` varchar(257) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=100000 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1$$;

enter the right credentials to the Database information in the raw server.json file

see my samples above.

what about the port of the DB ?

3306 is the standard port for mysql.  it SHOULD NOT be open in the firewall.    There is NO REASON
for most users to open port 3306.  It is dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.  You should
access mysql through a tool like mysqladmin (or mysql workbench but ONLY through an ssh tunnel).

Do i need to edit the other ips ? i mean the 127.0.0.1 ?

follow my example.  127.0.0.1 = localhost = local machine.  never change that.

And what address to use to put in the miners ?

In my case it's 8332 to connect to bitcoind and 8344 to connect to pushpoold.

Thanks a lot Viceroy !
I wonder why this tutorial never posted these SQL queries. Will the front end make all these tables ? because i planning on firstly to install the pool, then install the front end, will this be enough ? or these sql queries are required ?

Another question, i am not using from github ( the experts release), and in the simple one there is no file called bitcoind , and i can't run ./bitcoind . Is it already included in the ./pushpoold command ?
Thanks !
I really thank you ! Things seems to be more clear now .

The quries were in the original to get started but with the new version out i decided to scrape the whole tutorial and rewrite it.
and yes you'll need a table for containing the list of workers and their passwords named `pool_workers` in mining pool


FYI about Mining Farm
major performance update comming soon with the next mining farm update

bitcoind is the "no head" version of bitcoin.  Before compiling and running pushpoold, you need to compile and run bitcoind.
Bitcoin is easier to build than pushpoold, so go build that and then come back here.

Here are the instructions for centos:

I am really sorry but i am a total newbie to opening such kind a thing . I am already there at the end . Can you please answer this ?
So what i understood , i must install bitcoind on my ubuntu server compile it and run it , then install pushpool then compile it , configure it , and run it .
And bitcoind is the bitcoin client i download from bitcoin.org for linux ?

Can you recommend a host for me ? And i am already with ubuntu, will it be enough to run the pool and the front end site also ?
Thanks a lot !

Bitcoind is the bitcoin client from the linux download on bitocin.org yes... but it comes with a GUI(the interface that you should be use to) and it comes with a daemon(the server version of bitcoin) which is the one to you want to run.

[Viceroy]

that is correct.

Can you recommend a host for me?

you will be your own host, yes?  you will point people at your server.

And i am already with ubuntu, will it be enough to run the pool and the front end site also ?

Xenland built a front end called miningfarm (http://miningfarm.com/).

There is also a for-pay front-end (http://gbyte.dk/)

I'm sure there are others.

[sareea]

Thanks alot guys for helping me
I meant by hosting, a server service provider, like leaseweb, but i am planning on starting with VPS , then upgrade to a dedicated .
What do you recommend ?
i have 30-35 euro budget as to start .
Thanks

[Viceroy]

Don't really have any suggestions on a host.


Ok, here's a question for everyone.... what's this mean?

I'm currently using thegcloud.com/ but for some reason their website keeps saying system invalid although I can login and I'm still receiving tech support quick like.
I would reccommend RackSpace the same people who host GitHub they been around for years.

bump for my last post.

[Vadtec]

Question about rpc.target.rewrite setting in the config file...

Does this setting make pushpool behave like a pool vs a proxy to bitcoind? As in, when disabled (false), it is just a proxy to a bitcoind that doesn't bother logging any shares to the DB? And as in, when enabled, it is a proxy to a bitcoind that logs shares to the DB?

This would explain why when I set it to false I see shares generated in my miner but nothing gets logged to the DB. But, as I read the code, shouldn't it go ahead and process the share even though it's not an "easy target" and log to the DB? Looking at the git repo, in msg.c @ line 339, it should just skip over that section and continue processing. However, when I run the code with custom debugging lines inserted throughout submit_work(), I do not even see the custom debugging lines. To see the custom debugging lines, I must set rpc.target.rewrite to true.

So, why is it that when I set rpc.target.rewrite to true pushpool logs to the DB and I see my custom debug messages, but if I set it to false, everything seems to take a nap?

Also, what exactly is it rewriting? I'm still trying to figure that part out...

Hello,
I am getting these errors when i run the ./pushpoold -E -F
i run the ./bitcoind and the server says it is starting, then gives a warning .

/home/bitcoin/bin/32# ./bitcoind -daemon
bitcoin server starting

daemon" option, you must set rpcpassword=<password>
in the configuration file: /root/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
If the file does not exist, create it with owner-readabl
e-only file permissions.

/home/pool# ./pushpoold -E -F

Looks like bitcoind isn't starting up, you need to fix that first before you can get pushpoold to work and the error bitcoind is spitting out says you haven't setup a bitcoin.conf file for credentials.

Looks like bitcoind isn't starting up, you need to fix that first before you can get pushpoold to work and the error bitcoind is spitting out says you haven't setup a bitcoin.conf file for credentials.

Also, pushpool can't find your pushpool config file.  You have to specify it explicitly on the command line.  Unlike bitcoind, it won't look in a default path for the config file.
