[SOLVED]Why Wallet ip address not responding after finding block

[semajjames]

I am solo mining with 2 rigs and another pc running the wallet ,, everything is fine untill I find a block at this point the coins get to the wallet fine but the miner that found the block says that the wallet ip/port address is not responding and all hashing stops I then have to restart miner to continue

anyone know a reason for this ?

cheers

What wallet is that?

A few old wallets (especially with 1 million+ blocks) can be very unresponsive so if there's some action they spike the CPU and it will take time before it becomes responsive again.

You could try increasing the wallet's priority with task manager.

Or you could try increasing the limit on rpc connections in the wallet's config file (e.g. add rpcthreads=100 in a new line). The default I think is 8 so it might not be the culprit but who knows.

I'm still using version 0.8.7.1-beta-qr because I had plenty of issues with the newer versions and this one works perfectly.

I never had your issue specificly though.

Well I added

rpcallowip= "ip of pc running wallet"

to the wallet .conf and now it all works
