I'm trying to set askrate since there's no longpolling but it fails. This is what i do:

python phoenix.py -u http://xxxx.xxxx:xxxx@api2.bitcoin.cz:8332/;askrate=10 -k phatk DEVICE=1 VECTORS AGGRESSION=12 WORKSIZE=128 BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false

Then i get this:

phoenix$ python phoenix.py -u http://XXXX.XXXX:XXXX@api2.bitcoin.cz:8332/;askrate=10 -k phatk DEVICE=1 VECTORS AGGRESSION=12 WORKSIZE=128 BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false
No device specified or device not found, use DEVICE=ID to specify one of the following

    

• AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 250 Processor
[1] Cypress                        
    [2] Cypress                        

[0 Khash/sec] [0 Accepted] [0 Rejected]-k: command not found

Anyone knows what i got wrong here?

replace the ; in the command with \;
all semicolons need to be escaped, otherwise bash treats them as separate commands

Like this? api2.bitcoin.cz:8332/\;askrate=10 -k  let me try

That does it thanks a lot

I cant connect!
api is only taking 2 connections and api2 is taking 10.
I need 2 more!

I have 3 workers, each one running in a 5850 with phoenix/phatk and all pointing to api2.

I have just seen that two of them have the same amount of submitted shares after 48 hours (last reboot), but one of them have 3 times less than the other two in the same time. May be a problem connecting to the pool ?

BTW, what is an approximate "right" value for stale/invalid shares ? I'm having about 1.5%

api2.bitcoin.cz isn't letting all of my miners connect. it took me hours to figure out to try api.bitcoin.cz
you should really say why api2 exists, newer server vs second server for more connections

Actually there's no difference between api.bitcoin.cz and api2.bitcoin.cz. Your miners should work with both URLs. Can you try some network tools to analyze connection between you and servers? Ping, traceroute, telnet (mainly if server let you open the connection to put any request).

Do you see any error messages in the 'bad' miner? Idling messages or higher stale ratio? If it is just lower miner performance, it might be some hardware issue. But hard to say without more info...

1.5% is in expected range.

Seems to be more stable for the las 24 hours. No idea what happened before:

  Temp    Fan% (rpm)    Load  Rate     Accept/Invalid   Status
0: 70.5c   80% (3744-)   97%   383 Mhs  7312/109 (1.47%) api2.bitcoin.cz
1: 67.5c   70% (3400+)   99%   389 Mhs  7529/132 (1.72%) api2.bitcoin.cz
2: 68.5c   70% (3466+)   99%   389 Mhs  7500/104 (1.37%) api2.bitcoin.cz

Total: 1162.54 Mhash/s  22341 accepted, 345 invalid (1.52%)

I can not figure out why I can't  access http://mining.bitcoin.cz/ web page from my laptop but it works OK from my PC (same network)
I can access http://www.bitcoin.cz/ from both computers (and all the other web pages out there too).

Any ideas?

Bad miners simply do not connect at all. Ever. Miner before that would get ZERO connection until i switched from api2 to api.. Pinging them works great though.

[progre55]

Why is the reject rate THAT hight? so far, I have 49 accepted and 39 rejected!

What miner are you using? There were such troubles with phoenix older than 1.50...

I don't have enough info, but - of course - it does not sounds healthy . What miner parameters are you using? Something might be wrong here...

Using diablo linux, with -f 10 -v 2 -w 128
got two 6950 cards, with a combined hashrate of 666 Mh/s
had to switch to a different pool after mining for several minutes on your pool with a ratio of 82 accepts / 74 rejects

Oh well... Diablo isn't working properly for some technical reasons; Diablo changed some stuff in his miner few weeks ago and refused to "fix" it to be backward compatible. Please use another miner (I recommend phoenix or poclbm).

I'm using poclbm and I'm getting ridiculously high reject ratio as well. Is there a limit to how much work can be turned in per worker?

I'm showing at least 60% or so of my work that is being turned in rejected by the server. It wasn't this bad when I mined at slush while back, but I then I had it with separated to each gpu per worker for monitoring at the time. Now that I'm back and trying to setup slush again, it's giving me massive rejections because I am trying to turn in work to a single worker instead.

[noob_jul11]

I'm new to SLUSH. How do I withdraw immediate? Before I continue to mine at SLUSH, I need to know if
1) If I can withdraw immediate
2) if I can withdraw all 8 decimal places of btc.

I have set it at 1.0 btc for auto payout; but now I just set it at 0.01 btc. I have more confirmed btc than the 0.01 threshold but the payout was not initiated. HELP!

[FoxMURDER]

just fyi diablo works just fine for me ...


mhash: 389,5/388,7 | accept: 528 | reject: 1 | hw error: 4

Hmm... something is wrong with your pool.

Using cgminer or even the latest phoenix, which i turn you do recommend,  gives a very high reject ratio. Here a sample of phoenix:

Your pool works well only with poclbm but with poclbm I have over 20Mhases/sec less. I don't know what is wrong with your pool, but it occurs only mining with your pool. Btcguild, deepbit, arsbitcoin, eligius and other smaller pools, all are working very well with reject ratios about or less than 1 percent.
