[1500 TH] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool

[forrestv]

I recently started seeing these errors in my p2pool log - and I've never seen them in the previous month of running a node:

Code:

<snip>

Anyone offer some advice on what's going on here?

I've got the latest version of forrestv's p2pool software from github, and like I said, I only started seeing this error today.

EDIT: I'm not sure what, if any, effect it's having, since it appears my miners are still hashing away properly.  The S1s each show a very high Accept:Reject ratio and hardware errors are about 0.1%

It's one of the web frontend pages requesting the share with the hash "undefined," which of course makes no sense. Looks like a bug in the Javascript code somewhere. Are you using an alternative web frontent?

Thanks for the reply.

I am using an alternative front end - a mixture of john doe's interface and some custom stuff that I've written.  Just weird that this would pop up today.  I'll replace the front end with the standard one you provided and see if the errors persist.  Will report back here shortly.

EDIT: removing the custom front end, putting in the standard one and restarting my node results in the same errors thrown.

EDIT 2: And just as quickly as the errors started appearing, they have not again appeared for the past hour or so... wacky.

Excuse my Linux noobness, but what's the command line syntax used to integrate this fix into p2pool? I've tried the "git pull" request using the link above from within the p2pool folder but I get an error - so I presume I'm doing it wrong.......

Thanks.

I've not done it this way often, but I think you'd use:

git pull https://github.com/roy7/p2pool vardiffbyaddress

or

git pull https://github.com/iongchun/p2pool auto-worker-diff

Depending on which you wanted to pull in.

What way do you usually do it? I mean, there must be an official way of merging these requests locally. I've had a read of this:  https://help.github.com/articles/merging-a-pull-request  but the "command line" tab it refers to is not there.......

Thanks.

Can someone point me to the proper linux source/executable for ixcoind?  The block I found didn't generate anything on ixcoin.  Now it's giving me a hassle and not responding to p2pool in a timely manner.  I'm guessing I grabbed the wrong one?

Thanks.

https://github.com/FrictionlessCoin/iXcoin  is the latest one, but there are problems with it:

The ixcoin daemon on the pool has been sporadically crashing. It was down for 5 hours earlier meaning withdrawals weren't possible. I've applied a possible fix and will monitor how it goes.

I'm debating weather to go back to the older one myself.........

EDIT: http://www.ixcoin.co/?page_id=21     Binaries

Updated list to include I0coin:

To help other p2pool ops that may be interested in sharing their merged mining income, I have dedicated addresses you can send to that I'll then convert to BTC and feed back into the pool:

Glad you got I0coin up and running.  I had it, but it never synched with the network, so I dropped it.  Maybe I'll try again

[zvs]

Probably got zapped as an orphaned or DOA share by p2pool... the whole efficiency thing

Same old thing huh? I must say things seem better on that that front than it used to be. Since I've returned to p2pool I've only gotten one orphaned share. Are you still mining bitcoin or have you moved on? What was it noglegg, is that right?

Nevermind I see it in your profile info....

Yeah, haha.

I haven't mined bitcoin in just about a year now.  Maybe about a month before GPU mining really hit the skids, so I could get rid of some of my video cards while the prices were still decent.

I didn't do anything at all for 3-6 months, then I started messing with CPU based "shitcoins" & for several months there it was actually profitable to buy dedicated servers and just mine CPU coins off of them..  not anymore, but...  Now I just mess with dogecoin, mostly because I'm too lazy to sell my hardware.  It makes about $250 a month, $100 of that going to electricity (thx 7c/kwh).

.. and I've always liked to run the pools to try and get the highest efficiency rate

I've got some NMC from merge mining I will send to the address above for the pool.

Got the new front end up and running including miner detail pages with graphs, longer display periods for "recent blocks" & "node shares", more data integrated from the blockchain, etc...

Take a look and tell me what you think

If you have low latency to my server (US East) I'd love to try and get some additional load on it to see how the efficiency holds up.

To figure out your latency Ping mining.coincadence.com from a computer on the same network as your miners.

When your Ping is complete you should see something like below, the number you are looking for is highlighted in orange:

--- mining.coincadence.com ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 10 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 9.674/10.968/11.726/0.748 ms

WindPath's Quick n' Dirty P2Pool latency guide:

Greater then 100ms – To far, look for a closer node
Less then 100ms – Looking good
Less then 50ms – Great, your in the zone!
Less then < 30ms – It's raining hashes...
Less then 10ms – Are you sleeping in my data center?

If you are willing to help out with testing point some more mining power at this node for a week or more, it's currently a 0% fee and I'd appreciate it

Pool URL: stratum+tcp://mining.CoinCadence.com:9332

If you would like to set your own difficulty use YOUR_BITCOIN_ADDRESS+DIFFICULTY for the user name, for example:

Add groupcoin

I got some more memory for my node.  I'm going to rebuild it with a 64-bit OS so that I no longer have memory problems.. will be able to get more transactions in blocks, and will be able to merge groupcoin and huntercoin.

Thanks!  That's unfortunately not enough to convert to BTC yet.  But it'll be included in the next big run.

You'll need that extra memory with HUC. Don't forget Fusioncoin also......

I'm setting your node as my backup for my Ants.  When I bring my node down to rebuilt it, you'll see my miners.

This is so good pool so i ask for a trc addres if you can convert it also, noticed one small btc transfer ... 1000 trc i have to give

Yeah I was angry with the share difficult in the past, and left the pool. Now im back, if you want me or not. I can see things are much better now
This is the best pool now.

Thank you..

I think that its going to the moon now.

After a few weeks well see that donations are coming back to 2% or even more.

Will be happy to have you guys with us, plenty of resources to spare...

It seems like p2pool has awaken, theres nothing I can say against.

Ofcourse its not made for me, but I still cant stop wondering where are we going with this new shiny thing??

On next reboot theres a 2% donation to who ever makes this live.

I can handle 1 orphan in a week, perhaps 2
