NEW VERSION 3.0.0, APRIL 5 2013

Please note that libcurl 2.79.0 has a socket leak with request failures, which can lead to BFGMiner running out of file descriptors and/or crashing if you have a dead pool! All older and newer versions of libcurl should be fine.


You mean 7.29.0, right?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

How can I get crash logs to you from windows?
Unfortunately, I don't know any way to get useful information from Windows. Sad

Core dumps and/or backtraces would be very helpful to debugging any crashes. Did the 2.99.x versions work stable for those experiencing this?

I ran it a while with "-ggdb -O0" and the debug output, but it was a lot slower than otherwise, so I removed it. I did get a core dump though afterward, I hope it points you in the right direction:

Bummer. Would having two mining rigs mine for the same btc address on eligius cause issues?

Like my post? 1H7bfRYh7F89mfmFgsRCdn4awDaUHQmYqY

I get an error when tried to build bfgminer 2.10.6 or 3.0.0 with MingGW on Windows. I have all dependencies and successfully build BFG 2.10.5 from source.
Any suggestions how to fix this problem?

This suggests a broken jansson install - please find your jansson.pc file and PM me a copy (it should be small and plaintext) so I can add a workaround.

I've been mining in failover mode which seem to work great most of the time.

I set pool 0 to Eligius, and it will mine while it can connect to this pool, then it fails over to what seems to be the first pool in the list below pool 0 that reponds.

This works out great for me and I like it. However, when I have more than 5 pools in the list, when I use the [P] option to list them, I cannot see all the pools, just the last 5.

It would be nice if you could include a --- Pool 0-4 - hit any key to display the next 5 pools--- option or something... just a thought

Is the core code for a basic GPU miner different than cgminer? I thought there was a lot of overlap in the code bases between the two projects, but honestly have no real idea. I did try 3.0.0 last night though and have to say for the same .conf I used in cgminer I seem to have a higher long-term average hashing speed (not a huge amount, but noticeable).

Just an FYI: After my recent bfgminer 3.0.0 crash of a few days ago on bitminter, I decided to point 3 separate miners to bitminter to see if it would happen again. Last night, I had a crash again. But only with 3.0.0; 2.99.1 worked fine. Here is what I had:

miner1: bitminter, bfgminer 3.0.0 win7/64, 15 fpga devices. Crashed overnight.
miner2: bitminter, bfgminer 2.99.0 win7/64, 15 fpga devices (identical to miner1). No crash.
miner3: bitminter, bfgminer 3.0.0 win7/64, 2 fpga devices. Crashed overnight.

I`m new user of bfgminer.
I just compiled it on xubuntu 12.04 (cat 13.3beta + APP 2.Cool with --enable-scrypt to mine LTC.
My oldschool 5870 wont mine at all. My brand new Gigabyte 7970 SOC mine, with 420Khasy with 30% of HW error.
When i try to put any other options than --shaders, i have (core dump) error :/
When i try to mine BTC - (core dump) error

any ideas ??

EDIT:
It seems that my old rig has just 1GB of ram, witch is a bit less than recomended/needed.
I`ll upgrade in next 5h.

Running on Windows on a Toshiba laptop with an ATI Radeon HD 6520G.

Can't get either version (stable or 3.0) to work, period. Starts and hangs immediately after I put in the URL/username/password for the pool. Tried 4-5 times with 3 different pools. No dice.

Normal hash rates for this laptop using cgminer are in the 30 MHash/s range (yes, slow, I know, but it's what I've got). Am looking at getting an ASIC, but haven't committed yet. Would love some software which works for the ASIC that I can just switch settings for.

Is there a super-verbose logging mode that might help, that I could PM you the results, to kinda see if the problem surfaces?

I think I spoke to soon about my pi setup not crashing ...

Last night I had a network glitch when my network was down for about 10-15 minutes ... obviously in this time my mining was stopped and all my pools where not responding but the bfgminer 3.0.0 behaviour was not as expected ...

First let me say that I use only stratum protocol with both GBT and getwork disable via command line (--no-gbt and --no-getwork).
My setup use only 2 pools, both setup using "stratum+tcp://".

I think for my network glitch it was expected to retry pool connection alternating available pools for a while until one of them was available but ... after all stratum pools where not responding bfgminer tried to switch to getblocktemplate and even getwork and get stuck there for about 6 hours -  I guess because both where disable.

Here are the tail of the log as I found it in the morning before restarting it:

Code:
[2013-04-10 02:03:53] Stratum from pool 1 requested work update
[2013-04-10 02:03:57] Accepted 11b12ca2 BFL 0  pool 1 Diff 14/3
[2013-04-10 02:04:05] Accepted 1b332214 BFL 0  pool 1 Diff 9/3
[2013-04-10 02:04:25] Accepted 0754c848 BFL 0  pool 1 Diff 34/3
[2013-04-10 02:06:26] Stratum connection to pool 1 interrupted
[2013-04-10 02:06:26] Lost 14 shares due to stratum disconnect on pool 1
[2013-04-10 02:06:56] Pool 1 stratum+tcp://us.ozco.in:3333 not responding!
[2013-04-10 02:06:56] Switching to pool 0 stratum+tcp://pa.mtred.com:3333
[2013-04-10 02:06:56] Pool 0 stratum+tcp://pa.mtred.com:3333 not responding!
[2013-04-10 02:07:01] Pool 1 failed getblocktemplate request; falling back to getwork protocol

Almost vanilla, I only had to do a slightly patch to permit both cgminer and bfgminer installed, using /usr/share/bfgminer for kernels instead of /usr/bin. Maybe you should do that upstream too (having .cl files in /usr/bin is against FHS hier) Wink

Actually, this is what I'd consider completely vanilla - "make install" isn't really supported right now.
I'd welcome a patch to fix this, but it's not really a high priority.

For some reason, I can't seem to access the archlinux.org URI.
