[XPM] [ANN] Primecoin High Performance | HP14 released!

[cryptohunter]

yeah it's probably been disabled.

Oh well i will try my dedicated server and see what happens.

did anyone try this guide?

 

Try this, just wrote the guide:
http://ecoinomist.com/xpm-primecoin-mining-guide-on-linux

thanks, i'm going to give it a try

will this work ok on centos 6.3 64bit?

I don't know, haven't tested, only installed it on Ubuntu and Debian and both worked.

HP4 crashes on Linux every few hours. Another machine runs Windows and seems fine.

Code:

primecoind: checkqueue.h:167: CCheckQueueControl<T>::CCheckQueueControl(CCheckQueue<T>*) [with T = CScriptCheck]: Assertion `pqueue->nTotal == pqueue->nIdle' failed.

Currently Primecoin seems to be set up with no transaction fees.
I don't know whether that will change when the network is swamped with transactions.
I think that since there is no rigid reduction of mining rewards, transaction fees are not needed to keep miners happy as with Bitcoin :-)

That the wallet doesn't show tx fee in the configuration is a bug. http://www.ppcointalk.org/index.php?topic=333.0

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I must admit I never tried to transfer the ~20 XPC that my aging i3 CPU mined when XPM was young :-)

apt-get install make
apt-get install git
git clone https://bitbucket.org/pankkake/mikaelh2-primecoin
apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libdb5.3++-dev -y
apt-get install libgmp-dev
cd ~/primecoin/src
make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-
mkdir ~/.primecoin
echo “rpcuser=SomeUser
rpcpassword=SomethingReallyLong
gen=1″ > ~/.primecoin/primecoin.conf
sudo mv -f primecoind /usr/local/bin/.
primecoind –daemon -sievesize=200000
watch ‘primecoind listtransactions & primecoind getmininginfo’

it seems the guy didnt test it out and there are a few mistakes in there that stop it working?  someone told me this mikaelh2  version would work way better but i like a few others could not get that to work at all?  

Try this, just wrote the guide:
http://ecoinomist.com/xpm-primecoin-mining-guide-on-linux

Is that multiple machines using the same wallet ecoinomist? You are getting a crazy number of blocks for one machine.

Is it possible for multiple machines to share one wallet? How would I do that? copy the wallet.dat around?

[eCoinomist]

yes

actually it worked fine   however the server says disconnected now. i think the vps provider is not good. I try the dedicated one now with centos and see if that works.

[eCoinomist]

You must have failed to compile, I guess you are running the low ram droplet. Try again, I updated the guide to include swapping:

Yes it didnt compile the first time. I am going to test on the dedicated server now because that vps is not any use. In fact in the first swap commands it said not permitted so i think the provider is a pest.

[cryptohunter]

ok well on centos

apt-get is not a command it knows?  what to put on centos?  anyone here use centos ?

can someone edit the guide for centos, i think lots of people use centos on their servers even more than ubuntu?

[BitRock]

which vps are you using?

i scrapped that now since it wasnt working. I am trying on my dedicated server however

apt-get does not work

and when i try yum install build-essential libssl-dev libboost-all-dev libdb5.3++-dev -y


i get

so i'm guessing that yum install either wasnt correct or else libdb5.3++  etc does not work with centos 6.3 64bit?

Bro, if you want it work, just install it exactly as I did. I have had that exact same code running on three different VPS providers, including the big buy Amazon EC2

i tried your exact way but with centos 6.3 apt-get does not work it seems

[eCoinomist]

No you didn't. Trying exactly my way means Ubuntu 13.04 x 64 bit.

[cryptohunter]

No you didn't. Trying exactly my way means Ubuntu 13.04 x 64 bit.

Ah well sorry that is not possible since the server has already been running with centos for months and has websites hosted there so i can't really put ubuntu on it.
Was hoping there was a simple command change for centos to work.

Why on here is ubuntu so popular?? most hosts put centos on as default?

[hasle2]

yes

Do you know how to share a wallet after the fact? If I transferred all my coins to one and then copied that wallet.dat to all the other machines would that do it? That would make my life a lot easier.

[BitRock]

No you didn't. Trying exactly my way means Ubuntu 13.04 x 64 bit.

Do I have to achieve 4k pps for each vps to get a block? Thanks

Just use yum. "Yum search" should get you what you need.
