[0Th]Ozcoin Pooled Mining |DGM 1%|Stratum+VarDiff port 80|NEW CN mining|

[Graet]

I've had Ozcoin set up as a backup server for a few days now and it always shows up as dead in cgminer.

Thanks for giving us a try, from the DB it looks like you made an "auto worker", would you mind making a custom worker and see if that works?
Unfortunatley auto worker fails randomly for new members - we are trying to pin down the cause.

That worked.

I thought I saw somewhere that it was the other way around (custom workers were the ones giving problems) so I made an auto.

[Graet]

cool
heh, yep, unfortunately it has happened both ways, custom does seem to be working best currently

[BCMan]

 I've tried both custom and auto miners and cant get them to work. Failed connection.

which mining node and what mining software are you using?
A few clues would help us troubleshoot


Breif downtime coming up, doing patches to bitcoind.
Nodes should only be down a few minutes.

BIP30 and BIP16 patches applied.

Mining with Phoenix, tried EU and US nodes, no luck. Always getting "failed to connect" message.
 Ok, found the problem! Had "http://" in node address (copied from the site page). After removing it, now its working as intended.

[Graet]

Did some updates to the site frontend overnight (my time) mainly security updates.
If anyone sees any issues please let us know, looks all good from our side tho

Working on some more graphs and stats for those that need their chart pron

We now have staff in EU, US and AU so our IRC is manned pretty much 24/7. We are at #ozcoin on chat.freenode.net and have a direct link to #ozcoin via webchat on the site - drop in for some help or just to say "Hi" sometime

Ah the joy of random statistics - makes for one very cool pie chart today

(I guess there's some delay in the figures so it may be even better later?)

Using the pool block finding for a four day period lets the chart show some other pools' block finds. Ozco has 22 blocks (@ +12% luck) here vs Deepbit's 162 (+3% luck), so ozco's hashrate is still a bit less than shown.

The smallest pools not relegated to "other known" have three block finds. "Unknown" is mostly the mystery 0-TX miner, with more blocks found than ozco, although there are surprisingly a lot of single-block solo miners still.

Is the pool down?

My miner was hashing away, but when I checked the web site it says my hash rate was 0 and that my miner was stopped.

The US server was down for at least a few hours, but it just came back up while I was checking other ports and other countries' servers.

Seems to be down at the moment.

[deepceleron]

Got a couple of these:

MSG: Server is terminating!

MSG'd graet in IRC, he's working on it..

[Graet]

US server is having some issues communicating with DB
I have moved the US and AU mining subdomains DNS to the EU server until we can resolve US issues.

[Miner612]

Best pool out there, best pool operator by far.

This is the pool to be at.

[Graet]

Thanks for the kind words Miner612

Swapped mining subdomains back to normal

[Graet]

Going away for a few days in the country, I will keep an eye on stuff as I am able but if anyone needs urgent help jump on IRC via the webchat. There is usually someone around that can help
