[ANN] [QRK] Quark | Core 0.10 upgrade

[bitspill]

Sadly it has happened again... Successfully earn ~2 QRK per block for an hour then they stop coming hashrate is ~50kh/s

Restarted minerd and now its earning again, hopefully it won't stall at an hour again.

Anyone knows how to solo mine with the minerd?

Same as a pool but the information comes from quarkcoin.conf and you must have the daemon running
-o 127.0.0.1:rpcport
-u rpcusername
-p rpcpassword

The defalut rpcport must be 11973, i suppose. Thanks i'll try that out.

Qrkpool.tk stalled after 2 hours this time... Back to solo

That's how p2pool is designed to work, if your miner is slow, you won't get a payout every time the pool finds a block. Have a look at this, my 200kH miner was running all the time:

The share difficulty rose quite a bit too, resulting in a higher variance for slow miners. You could try adding +0.005 to your address to mine on a lower share difficulty, but I have not tested that long enough to be sure that payouts are correctly sent out when you do that.

i get a error if i want send qrk from my windows wallet:

"transaction too large"

a amopunt what i want to send is 4000 qrk my fee i increase too 40 qrk for transaction but same error!

this thread should help
http://forum.quarkcoin.org/Thread-Unconfirmed-transactions-total-400k-QRK

don't forget there was a new quark wallet launched, see firts post of this ANN thread for links

basically:

1. Backup your wallet
2. Run quarkcoin-qt -salvagewallet
This will take a while. After it completes your unconfirmed transactions should appear as unspent again.
3. Resend the coins in smaller amounts. The new version of the wallet should warn you if the transaction is too big.


(save your wallet in same way as bitcoin, click file icon and save, save as : wallet.dat

also there is a new wallet version out, so once you have done new transactions and sorted this problem. download new wallet and add saved wallet.dat by uploading)

[eule]

You just need to send smaller transactions. If you got many small transactions, e.g. from a p2pool, and want to send them to another address in one transaction, the transaction becomes too large. Try sending in chunks of 1000 for example.

edit: beat you to it

Try sending smaller amounts. A transaction only allows 160 inputs, so if you try to combine lots of small inputs (for example 0.1 qrk) from a p2pool the transaction will be too large.

I can't get mine working properly...   it's getting some error about 'quark-hash' not being found or some such & not loading headers...   just going to take it down instead of leaving that shell up  

I had the same problem until I looked around in Neisklar's Github. Git clone this https://github.com/Neisklar/quarkcoin-hash-python , then python setup.py install, then the pool should work.
Thanks to everyone testing, seems to run good so far, weirdly my yacpool had some hiccups this morning, investigating.

Ah, cool.. yeah, that fixed it.

I put your IP as a bootstrap address, but I don't guess it'll work properly until you change that persist value to true instead of false?

ed: nm, it does seem to be working.  i'm getting mined payouts already and it looks like your node accepted my share

So, http://nogleg.com:8372 is working now, 8372 is also the mining port (username is quarkcoin payout address).  It's set to 0% fee, etc, etc

Cool, the more nodes the better!  

Do you guys think I should put Neisklar's node as bootstrap addres? Maybe it is wiser to have a number of separate p2pools so that users get fewer but higher payouts, minimizing tx fees.

I dunno, it seems to me like it'd be better to have all the p2pool nodes connected..   I noticed that your pool had a number of double solved blocks (115761, 115750, 115742).  So some orphans there..

But, anyway, hooking up all the p2pool nodes would mean less orphans for p2pool solved blocks.  it should already be reduced a decent amount (from solo miners), since my quarkcoind has tons of connections

ed: tho the pool i just put up will get more p2pool orphaned shares, since it's 500khash vs 50mhash or whatever.  soon to be 0 since i'm turning off my cpuminer..   oh, i'm getting the right # of shares, but it seems to be underreporting my hashrate (should be that 500khash, says 50khash.  but for shares found, it's like 350khash)

Your miner is "outdated", a fresh git clone should help https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260031.msg3021932#msg3021932

I'll think about the bootstrapp address, slow miners on a 200 MH pool would recieve <1QRK payouts, not sure if that'd be worth it.

Ah, I'm using a windows build, too much work, heh..

I might mess w/ it later on my virtual machine w/ ubuntu.. 

I guess for now I'll disconnect my node and run a 'separate' pool if we aren't going to connect everyone up...  right now I'm just shooting myself in the foot (much higher chance of shares being orphaned).

Though I guess it's not much of a pool, if nobody switches...  I might run 1 or 2 threads on my CPU, I guess 

[ahmed_bodi]

i can fire up a pool like my SRC Pool if needed like crypto-expert.com/SRC however the fee will be 3% so i can recoup the costs of coding the fresh backend

[eule]

@ zvs: The 0% fee will surely attract some people. Latency is very important too especially with p2pools.
My server is in Frankfurt, Germany so should be good for EU people. Where's yours?  

@ ahmed: More pools, more network security!
