Hello,

Just started mining with minred. Everything is going fine in CMD finding a lot of blocks, but after about an hr or so I still have not received anything in my wallet. My wallet will sync and then 5 minutes later say out of sync and sync again. Is this causing this issue?. My .bat file is below

minerd -o http://treasurequarry.com:9844 -u iRP6gNuHYPBfoRprs3EMYYoDf4ay5Ayz21+0.00001164 -p x

Really appreciate your time, and any help or advice you can offer.

Thanks!

[boodaddy]

I took off the +0.00001164 at the end of my address to see if that helps any. Not sure if this will help or not

Hello boodaddy and thanks for mining at TreasureQuarry.  Your bat file is absolutely fine but the graphs page at http://treasurequarry.com:9844/static/graphs.html?Hour seems to indicate that your hashing may be ending up as "dead" for some reason (although sometimes it seems to look like that on the graphs with very low hashrates).  The +0.00001164 makes your miner report pseudo-shares, not real shares....you don't seem to have found  real share yet.  You may want to read my post at http://infinitecointalk.org/index.php/topic,325.msg1228.html#msg1228 about pseudo shares.

Without the  +0.00001164  your miner won't report any pseudo-shares and your graph won't display your hashrate with any accuracy at all.
Just an idea but in your particular case it may actually help your graph to display better if you try reducing the +0.00001164 number.  Try something quite low like +0.00000250 .   

minerman1234, thanks for that info.  Could you try my fix at http://infinitecointalk.org/index.php/topic,350.0.html .

Appreciate the help. I made the change, and I am getting a lot more accepted, but still don't no if they are orphans or not. Is there a way I can tell? How often is the rewards paid out? Appreciate your time, and help.

Hey Treasure,

If the fix is working and addressing the sync issues, I would recommend making it available as a beta and compiling it for others rather than having others try to figure it out on their own.  I'm sure that I (as well as a few others) would appreciate an easier process.

Also, is there a reason why your client is only offered as a download from http://infinitecoin.wordpress.com/?  I'm wondering why it isn't available and/or being supported on Github.

[TreasureSeeker]

boodaddy, you'll be getting more "accepted" messages from your miner with the +0.00000250 but bear in mind these are just pseudo-shares,  not real shares.  It's only once you find a real share that you'll start getting payouts.  Then you'll get a payout each time a block is found by the pool until your share "runs out" (see http://infinitecointalk.org/index.php/topic,325.msg1228.html#msg1228)

minerman1234, Infinitecoin itself is not my client  The Infinitecoin client was created by fisheater and is being upgraded by other people including AlexBoyle at the moment.   The source for Version 1.8, the latest official version, is available on github at https://github.com/infinitecoin/infinitecoin .  

[Updated - please ignore the rest of this post - on further testing this is not currently reliably working. Please use the conf file method posted ny TECSHARE for now until the dev team release a permanent fix.
I've uploaded a precompiled linux qt executable which has my checkpoints fix .  Just unzip, do the stuff I mentioned in the other thread to clear out your old block details, in other words:

IMPORTANTLY BACK UP YOUR wallet.dat FILE (just in case you accidentally delete
it in the next step).  In fact, back it up twice, just to be sure.

In your .infinitecoin directory, delete everything EXCEPT your wallet.dat file

Create an infinitecoin.conf file including rpcuser and rpcpassword as detailled in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=225891.0

Then double click on your newly unzipped infinitecoin-qt to run.

If you try this, please could you report your success or failure in syncing to the correct chain.  Thanks.

Is this mining pool still working?  I mined all last night at 680 KH/s with my IFC address as my username, but I never received any IFC.  My client keeps iterating over different blocks and then it says it's up to date, but then the block checking starts again at 16920.  (It varies slightly, though.)  Infinitecoin seems to be unstable as there appears to be a fork in the block chain where the client can't figure out which path to take.  Is IFC flawed with it's initial easy mining?  I'm new to infinitecoin, so I have no idea what to expect from it.  I decided to mine one night and see if I got anything from it and if so how much, but nothing happened.  Unless I can find out what's going on, I'll be mining LTC again tonight instead since it seems more stable.

Thanks again for your help!

Same here, got 0 IFC. https://i.imgur.com/Xv0Hmyy.png

If your Infinitecoin client on your home computer (or wherever you have the wallet whose address you're using to mine with) is currently on a forked chain, you won't see the IFC that you've mined at TreasureQuarry in your wallet until you sync your client to the correct chain.

If you can tell me the IFC addresses you're using to mine with, I can check the block explorer to see if it's showing IFC waiting for you when you sync.

Mine is: iR68oM7NjkoSS2sh4nczrbVgBKxjVgrnyn

Also, how do I sync to the correct fork path?

[TreasureSeeker]

There ya go http://exploretheblocks.com:2750/address/iR68oM7NjkoSS2sh4nczrbVgBKxjVgrnyn   ...you've got 83504.0677417 lovely Infinitecoins patiently waiting to jump into your wallet when you sync

At the moment the most reliable way to sync seems to be TECSHARE's temporary fix at http://infinitecointalk.org/index.php/topic,315.0.html

I've also done some refining of my checkpoint fix (needs more checking before I post it).  AlexBoyle and others are also working on the wallet for a permanent fix and other updates.

Stay with Infinitecoin.  From what I've been able to find, the problems have come from past issues when difficulty was rocketing up and own due to large coin-hopping pools.  A past fix to the difficulty algorithm made things arguably worse at that time for a short while, and forks have occurred relating to that time.  The difficulty algorithm is now fixed but we're now needing to ensure that clients follow the right path to the correct blockchain and avoid the past forks.  I'm 100% sure that this will be fully fixed shortly.

Oooh!  Awesome it's working now.  On page 6 of that thread you linked to, there's a "true chain" file to download from Mega.  I downloaded that and replaced the old data while keeping my wallet.dat and everything went well.  I have my IFC now.  Hopefully others find this thread for the Infinitecoin fix for it not syncing.  Thanks again!  =)

Is there posted anywhere code used on this pool?
It have 0/0 connections, so in fact it is not a real P2pool...

[d7o1n4]

same problems..IFC still not showing in wallet after syncing.
Thoughts?

IFC: iN2etF3rXBR3XfdzPAqzCXak9nT2AwfKv7

[d7o1n4]

...but then again, I've never had any IFC in this wallet. Can someone send me one to test?
Thanks

IFC: iN2etF3rXBR3XfdzPAqzCXak9nT2AwfKv7

[TreasureSeeker]

d7o1n4, your mined infinitecoins are showing on the block explorer at http://exploretheblocks.com:2750/address/iN2etF3rXBR3XfdzPAqzCXak9nT2AwfKv7 so they should definitely be in your wallet if you've synced.  Are you absolutely sure you've synced to the correct chain?  

In your Infinitecoin wallet's console (located at Help --> Debug Window then Console tab), could you enter

getblockhash 447754

and tell me what the result is?

Could you also check that that address of iN2etF3rXBR3XfdzPAqzCXak9nT2AwfKv7 is showing in your Infinitecoin client's
"Receive Coins" tab   (just in case you've accidentally created a new wallet).

I've sent a dozen Infinitecoins to your address to further check whether you're receiving them. (transaction 3a50e1048c4cffd60f4a11a96a0f1a9c4dd62cf2d449c9137afb2b59cefdc11e    ...   http://exploretheblocks.com:2750/tx/3a50e1048c4cffd60f4a11a96a0f1a9c4dd62cf2d449c9137afb2b59cefdc11e#o1 )

Thanks TreasureSeeker. Last night  I ran this fix from http://infinitecointalk.org/index.php/topic,315.90.html...user Makabress....https://mega.co.nz/#!wERQESKT!VjDLhD51Tscp0YGUuLLGHXCu29dtxDuaabk0F7csQgI
Wallet synced and showed your 12 ifc depsoit (thank you!) and the deposit from my mining a few days ago.
I ran the getblockhash - ddd2f46f72092cb1e06973c068ce2b304936df9ed32ff246804c5dec9b0a424e.
I started mining with minerd from cmd last night and seem to have had success but I'm unable to connect to exploretheblocks. Nothing new is showing up in my wallet.
It seems I'm synced to the right block now.

[TreasureSeeker]

d7o1n4 ,are you using the +number after your Infinitecoin address when mining?  It's recommended to do this to tell your miner to report psuedoshares, which helps things display well your graphs page.   I'm asking as your mining graph doesn't appear to be showing very well on the graphs page...as I speak there's just a peak at around just 85H/s just before 6PM UTC last night.  Going by this if you're mining at 80H/s you will have long delays between finding shares and therefore getting a run of payouts.

The block explorer at Exploretheblocks is having intermittent problems with abe block explorer freezing up.  This has no connection to the sync issues.  I'll be working on trying to get a more stable explorer working this weekend.

[dustofdeath]

is it broken today or what?
Im not recieving any IFC for all the work iv done.

http://exploretheblocks.com:2750/address/iLc1zFgbyTN5wihA74E7aJjoPPKPf3hgZi

The last one is there, the 48.8... one at  14:48 (local time) - but iv mined at least another 4-5 hours after that (its 23:53 by now) and not a single coin shows up at the explorer o in my wallet.

I had loads of accepted shares.

So whats up with that?

I've been using +0.00000116...I mined all night from cmd....then switched back to mining from the wallet today....the IFC I earned a few days ago had the +0.00000116 attached as did todays mining...my system froze after about 18000 accepted...exploretheblocks doesnt show anything new...
