Need p2pool for BitBar. Any p2pool gods??

[rbdrbd]

There is a protocol switch at block #9869 in the BitBar code.  Using p2pool before we have reached that block is not possible.

Good to know we weren't insane or stupid with trying to set up p2pool.

Can you provide a github link to that part in the code? Seem like an intentional thing by the authors?

Search for "p2pool" in main.h. 

Yes, I think the switch was added by Balthazar to make it compatible with p2p, probably close to block 9869 for PPCoin.  But for BitBar this is still quite a bit off (30 days or so).

Those are kernel tweaks via sysctl.conf, mostly around networking. You could also try http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-nginx-too-many-open-files/ (see the section on "Increase Open FD Limit at Linux OS Level")

http://linux-quirks.blogspot.com/2011/02/too-many-open-files.html may also be helpful.

i was change limits for open files already, but also i was forgot close the screen.. but it's not enought still.. i need to reboot the server

yup, found that:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=143221.msg1550632#msg1550632

looks like taken straight from NVC code.

i don't want to disturb your conversation, so i was made new topis https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=194781.0 for pushpool

Holy shitsnacks, 0.1 BTB a day with 1 m/hash wtf. These things ARE rare!

Any p2pool forks ready once we hit block #9869 ?

Ready

[walf_man]

i hope you success.

i want to study how to mining new coin in p2pool

[Invest0r]

Just a few days more.. I'd really like to see p2pools for bitbar.

[whitedragon]

So is anybody out there ready to make a guide on how to modify p2pool when new coins come out yet?  Would be great if more of us out there could get pools going faster and maybe not have the orphan conventions on coin releases.

Then again...there are alot of coins that should just be allowed to orphan and fork themselves into oblivion as quickly as possible....

Hello!

I have found some lines that have to be modified here https://github.com/j980/p2pool

1) p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py line 11:

Code:

bnLowerBound = 0.0001

2) p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py line 15:

Code:

while bnLowerBound + 0.0001 <= bnUpperBound:

3) p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py line 25:

Code:

nSubsidy = nSubsidy - 0.0001

4) p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py line 39:

5) p2pool/data.py line 16:

Code:

minout = pow(10, 6) / 10000;

Also, concerning block 9689 switch, I can't figure out what the stake entropy bit has to do with proof-of-work mining  

Now testing the pool at http://78.27.191.182:8333/. Unfortunately, I have less than 1MH/s

Commited some more fixes. Already found 2 blocks. Read this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217894.0

PoW blocks are used as the entropy source as well as PoS blocks.

Hi , i am curious - how did you found this lines:

4) p2pool/bitcoin/networks.py line 39:

Code:

SUBSIDY_FUNC=lambda target: get_subsidy(6, 1, target),

here is the change from 100 to 1 (NVC vs BB) but why? (i try to get any direction - thx)

5) p2pool/data.py line 16:

Code:

minout = pow(10, 6) / 10000;

trying to mod your pool to Orbitcoin specs.

Because BTB is NVC clone with 100 times less coins, i.e. the block reward is 100 times less.

5) p2pool/data.py line 16:

Code:

minout = pow(10, 6) / 10000;

The same here: minimal output (and minimal tx fee) is 100 times less in BTB (0.0001 vs. 0.01 in NVC)
