[XPM] Primecoin High Performance Linux Compilation Guide

[j28]

THANKS A LOT 

[Greenny]

Thanks, the instruction worked flawless on fresh Debian install on the Hetzner EX40 server.


P.S.
Is it possible to use Prime Coin mining in the pool? How?

[altsay]

I completely followed the instructions and run on two different computers with Ubuntu 12.04 and 13.04

On either one i get the following error after a random amount of time the daemon began:

Code:

primecoind: checkqueue.h:171: CCheckQueueControl<T>::CCheckQueueControl(CCheckQueue<T>*) [with T = CScriptCheck]: Assertion `pqueue->nTotal == pqueue->nIdle' failed.

[eadmanday]

I am trying to get this installed on an online AWS server. like digital Ocean. I have compiled everything and i am trying to run everything. but when i check the mining, i get little to nothing.

it seems like its very low for the server.

also i have changed my rpcuser to my beeeeer address and password. was that where i mine for a pool? or could i put my wallet address in  the config somewhere?

When i use primecoin-hp11 binary (downloaded from sourceforge) everything runs fine. Let's call this one A.

When i use the binary i get after compiling from source (either sourceforge, github or bitbucket) -- let's call this one B --, i get these kind of messages in debug.log:

Code:

In fact, no new "ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED" ever happens. Even if I return to A, the same error is now showing (it looks like the chain was corrupted by B). I am, unable to reindex the chain with B (InvalidChainFound appears around height 85431).

Any idea what's wrong?

I am on a Fedora 19 box.

If you want to pool mine, you need to use a pool miner, not the full client. There are a number of threads on this, check out this one! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=252944.0

Well, it could be a compiler issue in Fedora 19. Did you use any special compiler flags when compiling? Also, it could be an issue in your version of OpenSSL. In the past Redhat has removed support for EC crypto from their version of OpenSSL. Did you compile your own version of OpenSSL, or did you use Fedora's version?

In the past Redhat has removed support for EC crypto from their version of OpenSSL. Did you compile your own version of OpenSSL, or did you use Fedora's version?

Thank you for your reply! Here is some additionnal information:

1) Before compiling, I made no change to makefile.unix. Thus the flags were:

Code:

-O2 -pthread -Wall -Wextra -Wformat -Wformat-security -Wno-unused-parameter -g -DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DUSE_UPNP=0 -DUSE_IPV6=1 -DHAVE_BUILD_INFO -fno-stack-protector -fstack-protector-all -Wstack-protector -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2

2) I am using the OpenSSL from Fedora:

Code:

openssl-devel-1.0.1e-30.fc19.x86_64
openssl-1.0.1e-30.fc19.x86_64
openssl-libs-1.0.1e-30.fc19.x86_64

3) During compilation there are no errors but some warnings, namely:

Ok, it looks like Redhat is indeed shipping a crippled version of OpenSSL in Fedora 19. So you need to compile your own version. Step 2b in my guide shows how to do that.

Thanks, i'll try that.

After these staps I start screen and run primecoind:

Code:

primecoind -deamon - printtoconsole

When running in screen, detach the screen console with crtl+a+d. and you can logout of the server. When reconnecting with ssh to the server you can reconnect to screen to see how you are doing with

Code:

screen -a -r

[DieJohnny]

I am not a developer but am willing to tackle this thread if someone can give me some feedback.

I have 40 circa 2008 poweredge servers (xeon 2.2 ghz processors) sitting around doing nothing.

They have no OS, so I am contemplating buying 40 usb thumb drives and booting linux and mining PrimeCoin with them.

Any thoughts?

[AnhBen]

How can I send my XPM automatically to an address?
I'm using Spot Instances on AWS and you will never know when it's terminated but if someone can have a little script to send it out to an address. I'm offering a couple of XPM for a few lines of code.

[Dumbo]

So if I want to use the primecoind just as a node, and interact with php for payment ...

the .primecoin/primecoin.conf file should just include :

server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=primecoinrpc
rpcpassword=SOME_SECURE_PASSWORD

right?

[nanobtc]

AnhBen: Try this article. It's about combining outputs of miners to a common wallet.

DieJohnny: They have no OS? Do they have drives? Seems like it would be easier installing on regular drives if they are unused. Mining these is CPU intensive, don't think it's so I/O intensive, so it would probably work OK on USB. Once you get one configged on USB you could easily clone it with dd if=/dev/completedusbdrive of=/dev/otherusbdrive   You'd have to change /etc/hostname of each one so they're not all named the same.

Do you have free electricity? If so, you've got nothing to lose.

I followed the instruction how to solo mine using this high performance client, but after finding a block the address is different from my primecoin addresses.

That's normal. The miner chooses an unused address from the wallet.

Great, thanks!
