[XPM] Pool mining primecoin using DigitalOcean (VPS)

[rethaw]

I always get this when I try compiling.  Any tips? 

URCE=2  -MMD -MF obj/init.d -o obj/init.o init.cpp
g++: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7/README.Bugs> for instructions.
make: *** [obj/init.o] Error 4

Addressed earlier: need to build on a larger instance or remove the -O2 flag in makefile.unix.

Yes I believe so (to both), what linux distribution did you pick? I'll try again on a new instance

It's the 13.04x64 instance. You should be able to see the file in the src if make finished successfully.

Ok it's working now, I guess the make didn't complete last time. Thanks!

Let us know what speed you get, I'll add it to the OP.

How do you remove the -O2 flag? Sorry complete Linux noob here.

Try this, I haven't tried it yet.

sed "s/\-O2//" makefile.unix > makefile.unix.new
make -f makefile.unix.new USE_UPNP=-

Mind you this removes some optimizations, its better to use an instance with more memory... and it looks like the new code can take advantage of more headroom!

I deleted -O2, but run into the same error still.

Anyone want to put up a dropbox link to a primecoind? The direct link to a precompiled binary in a previous post is no longer working.

[rethaw]

Its a bad idea to grab someone else's precompiled binary. I'm sure you can find one, but my guess is Sunny will upload one soon.

When you say larger instance are u refering to " 1GB / 1 CPU 30GB SSD Disk 2TB Transfer" or which droplet are u making?

Today's update vastly improves mining. I'm getting up to 200 on the smallest instance, the large instance gets 1500+, I built it like this on the large instance.

Code:

apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/primecoin/primecoin.git
apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libdb5.3++-dev -y
cd ~/primecoin/src 
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-
mkdir ~/.primecoin
echo "rpcuser=ARPCUserName
rpcpassword=SomethingReallyLongOK
gen=1" > ~/.primecoin/primecoin.conf
sudo mv primecoind /usr/local/bin/.
primecoind --daemon
watch 'primecoind listtransactions & primecoind getmininginfo'

Couldn't find any package by regex 'libdb5.3++-dev'
I'm using 13.4 64bit droplets too

Try apt-get update?

libdb5.3++-dev - Berkeley v5.3 Database Libraries for C++ [development]

Otherwise you can use another version

libdb5.1++-dev or libdb4.8++-dev

Yeah I'm aware of that. I suppose I could fire up a droplet with 2GB of RAM temporarily, it's only 0.03 an hour.

So it's definitely an out-of-memory issue?

I'm thinking of going this route too as I can't get it to work either.

So far, this is the only tested way to get the optimized miner in this thread. And since it scales with core count you can get huge pps on an 8 core instance...

Do you have to pay the monthly and hourly cost?   What are the two costs?

[Zalfrin]

I went ahead add set up a 2GB unit and it's compiling happily. Thanks.

For anyone not wanting to give out creditcard details or if you simply don't have one:
1. go to https://bancore.com/
2. sign up
3. generate a card
4. use your new virtual credit card info for registering your droplets

The monthly cost is just the sum of the hourly costs, i.e.

.007 / hour * 24 hours / day * 30 days / month = $5.04 / month

Yeah, it worked with 5.1. Thanks.
But my second droplet, 5.3 is ok, after that makefile failed. Don't know why >"<

Me neither, but glad its working now!

Anyone care to post their pps? I'm getting around 150 on the smalls and 1500 on the 8-core.

EDIT: I should mention you will end up charging your card sooner if you use a larger instance.
