[ANN][The Original Multipool - Scrypt/SHA256/Scrypt-N/X11] multipool.us

[Torn]

I just started on this pool today.  I'm getting occasionally "bad worker credentials."  Is this normal?  delays my mining for a bit

now I'm getting non-stop bad worker credentials.  Help plz

What OS, what miner program, what pool you using (What coin or Multiport?), what vidcard, whats your sisters name etc etc. Give some details.. is it when you start or when?

T.


p.s. J/K about sister.. pics or doesn't matter anyway.

You might need to remake/edit cgminer.conf file if you are using cgminer. Verify your workers names on multipool site under your Account .. double check spelling everywhere.

thanks. weird thing is it worked for a while today and just started with the bad worker credentials.  mine fine on other pools.  cpuminer with a stratum proxy

edit: seems to be when we went to FTC?

[flound1129]

Sorry.. Vicurex.

and we are mining FTC now ...?
Maybe should switch to a LTC maybe while we find out?


Cryptsy has temporarily suspended FTC trading while he investigates.. according to Admin there.

If the attacker is able to successfully orphan blocks while we're on the chain, I'll disable FTC.  That would mean he has more than 600MH.  To limit risk for miners, I'll pay up to 4 orphan blocks.  If we get more than that I'll pull FTC off the multiport.

It's a very devious bug in stratum.  I'm currently investigating a fix.

Btw latest version of cpuminer supports stratum I believe.

what should I do now? go to new cpuminer version then I won't need the proxy, and it will work? or go to getwork?

edit: weird, it started right back up when we got off FTC.

Yes it does: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55038.0 no need for proxy anymore

ok it happened again.  Not sure whether this is what you meant about the bug in stratum, but I can't seem to mine when the pool switches to FTC.

EDIT: just switched to new cpuminer and still getting stratum error when it goes to FTC

PM or email me your worker name.

Sent PM.  The new cpuminer is working on and off when it mines FTC.  For instance just got stratum_recv_line failed and stratum interruption.  I haven't upgraded the old one yet and it is stuck at trying to connect every 30 seconds, bad worker credentials (tried restarting).

Should we disable FTK for a while if we suspect there is a 51% going on... ?

Yes, I'm wondering if this has something to do with my issue...miners working 100% fine on all other coins

No, it has nothing to do with the stratum auth issue.

My question was more about it's profitability if it's under a 51%

Ok sorry, but I just thought it was weird I'm only having problems when it goes to FTC.

We've gotten 4 orphans so far, if we get 2 more I'm going to take FTC off the multiport.

One of my miners stops mining a few times a day after displaying "Stratum connection to pool 0 interrupted" it prints two more lines and stops. On my workstation I've occasionally seen that message but it'll recover and go back to mining. Some days a couple other miners freeze. Is there a configuration option or anything I can do to cure that??? TIA

I'm not sure why cgminer (I'm assuming you're using cgminer) sometimes takes a long time to reconnect after the connection has been lost.  You would think it would try again immediately but this doesn't seem to be the case.

Yes, cgminer 3.3.1 compiled with the latest AMD drivers etc.
I added "disable-no-pool" : true a few days ago but it still does it. Which reminds of a suggestion for the todo list.

I wish the Worker status was on its own succinct page. Workers down the left column, coins across the top, and hash rate in the table. No need for Active as that's redundant to hash rate. It'd be great if it auto-updated so I could check all my miners at a glance. You could put ads on the right side and turn the menu vertical on the left side. Cheers, Aurum

So many coins now in low Difficulty: LKY, WDC, ARG, FTC. Want to mine them all at once. But must pick one.

Edit: will make ARG people happy this time - not all low difficulty blocks will be mined by multipool because of the switch to LKY.
