Ok I got stratum to work now.

However still a small problem

4 GPUs on 1 PC with 1 instance of GPUMiner running cgminer

3 of the GPUs are getting 270 mhash each, and 1 is only getting 145 mhash.

Before I did this switching around, all 4 got 270 mhash each.

It's always the last (4th) GPU that I start mining that gets the lower MHash, so I know the GPU isn't broke because the same thing happens to them all depending on which order I start them

Any idea whats wrong?
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Do you have any hardware reports in cgminer? Overheating/throttling? Looks like hw problem.

Stratum proxy 1.2.0 has been released. Changelog:

* Fixes major bug in C extension for calculating midstate (thanks verement for bug report & pull request).
* Fixes network issues - proxy now actively reconnects after two minutes of pool inactivity (also disconnect miners to indicate connection issues).
* Fixes get_version message.

Update is recommended for all proxy users.

I spoke too soon...all 4 of my 5830s are averaging 220 MHash each now, and they aren't overheating because the temp is only 60c for each of them

Sigh...so frustrating, maybe its time to finally quit after mining for 1.5 years.

All because I decided to switch to stratum Sad

tealover, you see higher hashrate on old getwork interface? Or is is just by updating cgminer? I really doubt that it is because of stratum itself.

Higher hashrate when I was using old version of GUIMiner (so no stratum), and I was using phoenix before

But now I'm using new guiminer and cgminer with it and it sucks.

The flags are completely different too, but ive tried a bunch and getting low hash no matter what flags

If phoenix works best for you, just use phoenix and stratum proxy...

When I used phoenix with newest GUIminer, your site said I wasnt using stratum. Even after you said you fixed things and to try it again

Yes, phoenix does not have Stratum support. But you can install Stratum mining proxy and connect phoenix to it. There's step by step howto: http://mining.bitcoin.cz/mining-proxy-howto

Everything was so much more simpler when I first started mining...

Just ditched guiminer and using cgminer directly now and mhash are 300 each on my 5830. Thats good.

However it's combining all 4 GPU into 1 entry on your website, so I don't know if 1 GPU crashes or not to start it back up.

Any way to change that?

By the way, thank you slush

tealover, it is still pretty simple, you only need use up-to-date software instead of phoenix which has no development for months :-). I recommend you GUIminer (poclbm backend) or cgminer, both works perfectly with Stratum.

Stratum protocol supports more workers without problems. But latest miners can manage more gpus at once and they unfortunately don't allow entering worker name per gpu...

Edit: Still, as I said, if you prefer phoenix, use Stratum proxy and everything will be the same as previously. You can use own worker names for every miner instance as well...

tealover, honestly, there's no reason to repost everything to more threads. I already answered this to cgminer's thread.

I'm getting the no stratum notice too, even though I'm running the latest cgminer and have been on stratum for quite a while.

Now I don't understand your problem. cgminer looks ok ("Switching pool 0 ... to stratum+tcp ...").


Yeah, I have been running on stratum for a while, but I was getting a notice on the website that claimed I wasn't. It seems to have stopped now.

Btw no need to run backup pools for api, api2 and api3 - all three IPs are using the same stratum backend...

I'll change my startup script then Smiley

No matter if I enter the info manually with a blank config, or copy the config over, it doesn't connect.

Please be sure you typed worker credentials correctly. Everything is case sensitive. If it still fails, can you report it to cgminer thread?
Ah, Before it worked due to non-case on GPU, had it .Gpu instead of .GPU. Getting the latest version and changing that worked.

So will I receive any back-transaction fees or just continuing from here?
Also will the stats page show block reward share vs transaction fee share?

Slush, I'm getting the no-Stratum notice also. My situation is a bit unusual. I have two core-i7 machines in your pool, each using nVidia cards and therefore cuda (it's a long story).

I use GUIminer and switched both machines to the 2012-11-18 version when it came out. GUIminer shows a path "\Program Files (x86)\guiminer\miners\puddinpop\rpcminer-cuda.exe"

On one machine, a message flashes by on GUIminer startup to the effect that it IS using Stratum, starting a week or two ago. Unfortunately, my router has failed and I can't get Net access on that machine any more until the replacement router arrives from Newegg in a few days. Your site shows "Stratum -" in the Workers section of "My Account" for that worker - neither yes nor no because it has not been active since the router failed a day or so ago, I think.

The other machine is now connected directly to my ISP line (no router involved). I have never seen the GUIminer Stratum startup message on it, and your site shows a definite "Stratum no" for it in the Workers section of "My Account".

The software and settings for the two machines are identical, as far as I know. When I download a new version of GUIminer or bitcoin onto one machine, I carry it by sneakernet SD card to the other machine, for example.

Bottom line: two apparently identical machines, each updated a while ago to GUIminer 11-18, one apparently did start to use Stratum and one apparently did not. Due to bad router luck, I can't do much testing/confirmation with the "good" machine for a few days.

I hope this is useful, and I realize my setup is not a common one. I'll be double-checking my file paths in case I am somehow using an out-of-date component somewhere, but the GUIminer heading definitely says v2012-11-18 on both machines.

Thanks!

algeezer - only poclbm backend (OpenCL) in GUIminer supports Stratum. So if you're using rpcminer-cuda, you still need to use Stratum proxy...

"-" indicates that worker is not active, so pool don't know if it uses stratum or getwork
"yes/no" indicates stratum or getwork connection for active workers.

Edit: I also added information about OpenCL-only support in GUIminer to that profile message...

So awhile ago you were talking about changing the payment method to something non-hoppable (DGM IIRC).  What ever happened with that?

Thanks, slush. I was expecting something like that but I was still puzzled as to why I saw a Stratum startup message flash past quickly on one machine but not the other in the one-line GUIMiner display where it says things like "allocating cuda resources". I was sure both were rpcminer-cuda.

The error is mine. Sorry! I had somehow generated an OCL miner on the one machine and labeled its GUIMiner tab as a CUDA miner. It is of course the one that was showing the Stratum startup message. I'll relabel it.

I've just switched the other machine from CUDA to an OCL miner. It seems to work fine (and gives a Stratum startup message).

Thanks again. Sorry for the hassle.
