bitHopper: Python Pool Hopper Proxy

[bitcoindaddy]

can someone tell me whats wrong with this api

[btcmp]
name: bitcoin minepool
mine_address:rr.btcmp.com:8332
api_address:http://btcmp.com/
role:mine
api_method:re
api_key: id="field_shares">([0-9]+)</td>
api_strip:' '
url:http://btcmp.com/

Maybe it's missing some of the relavant HTML:  like the end of the table header?

<th class="label">
         round shares:
      </th>
      <td class="value" id="field_shares">
         ...
      </td>

@simonk83, and your miner output was... ? useful to know

My miner output as in... the hash rate?   Sorry, noob here, be gentle

Or, if you mean the pool I was connected to and the flags etc, I'm using AOCLBF (although I was using GUIminer with the same issue), connected to bloody's at the moment, using Phoenix with -k phatk VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=13 WORKSIZE=256 FASTLOOP=false

[joulesbeef]

My miner output as in..

in guiminer view console.. watch for your gpu to cut out.. copy and paste what it say in the console.

as for AOCLBF.. dont know, havent played with it enough

if you are using AOCLBF due to the new phatk.. he refixed it to work with guiminer.

Ok, I'll switch back to guiminer.

I'm actually using this version of phatk - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25860.0

Is the other guys version better (2.1 right?)

EDIT:  To answer my own question, yes it is.

Ok, back up and running.  Couldn't connect to guiminer at all for a while until I noticed it had changed itself to port 8332 and solo mining for whatever reason.  Changed that stuff back (took a few goes to stick) and we're back up and running.   Will monitor for dropouts and post the output if it happens again.   Ta

EDIT2:  Ok, found the culprit (I assume):

I hope everybody isn't completely sworn off Bitclockers - they've found 4 blocks today.

And look who one of their top workers has been:


gnaget are you hopping them or riding 247?
Hasn't been a bad time to be 247, tbh.
Also, I've been running with Cherry Picker on more and more rigs for the last day or so. BitClockers doesn't seem to block, delay, QOS, etc. using CP. Interesting data point.

I've been hopping them with mine_friendly.

phatK 2.1 is better than diablo's kernel for most people right now


the guiminer will do that every single solitary time you close it.

just remember to change it back to 8337


and I guess c00ws newest version is punishing the lazy

Code:

[23:30:38] Database Setup
[23:30:38] writing to database
[23:30:38] Selecting scheduler: SliceScheduler
[23:30:38] Server change to arsbitcoin
[23:30:39] slush: 1954459
[23:30:39] Error in pool api for slush

[23:30:40] btcserv: 1147431
[23:30:40] Error in pool api for btcserv
[23:30:40] bloodys: 329585

I guess i will have to cut all that extra crap in user.cfg


edit: nope cleaned up user.cfg and still get the same problem.. so what is up?

[owowo]

Found this one on the wiki pools list...

http://btcmp.com/

Anyone tried this one? 50+ Gh/s

yes, what about this one?

Looks like a winner, IF that is they are still using prop.

seems to require a cookie to actually grab the share info..



c00w you should set things up to let us choose to mine under your credentials for 1% of the time, to help buy mountain dew

[simonk83]

Gah, it's just flatlining now with:

2011-08-03 14:01:49: Listener for "Hopper": [03/08/2011 14:01:49] Warning: work queue empty, miner is idle

[c00w]

Mining under my credentials 1% of the time?
Yeah that would be pretty easy to set up.

The issue is that I'm on a bad internet connection so my test machine is hard to access and hard to monitor. So feedback is crucial. Any error messages when bitHopper is flatlining?

I'm running the Windows EXE version (Sukrim's) posted earlier in the thread (still can't get it running through python natively).

The only message in guiminer is:

2011-08-03 14:01:49: Listener for "Hopper": [03/08/2011 14:01:49] Warning: work queue empty, miner is idle

[joulesbeef]

c00w is is phatk not you.


guiminer seems to have a problem with phatk and a high aggression for some people

try bumping it down a tiny bit.. I'm running aggression 12.. i just know others have had the problem you are and lowering it a bit helped

if not go back to the AOCLBF.. people dont seem to be having that idle issue with it..

Ok, I'll give that a go (although it was happening with AOCLBF as well).

Ok, I've changed it from 14 to 10.  Lost a few mhash but I'll see if...

nope, just dropped out again.

I'll try lowering it further I guess.

Could it be pool related?  (I'm on bloody's)

EDIT2:  OK, bloody's just went red, so perhaps it is.

This site appears to be using javascript to display the pool stats.  I'm not sure how to pull that into bithopper.

-grassfed all the way-

But, since I couldn't help you with that, re-add bitcoinpool.com

Here's why:
After looking at my account settings I realized that if you donate 1% or more to the pool they will not implement any anti-hopping measures on your account.  I think that's a good system and we should look into making similar arrangements with other pools.  I'd be willing to donate up to 5% at some pools, to be able to hop freely.  The pool can keep it or redistribute it to their full time miners.  Just a thought....

I guess it could be... i just remember a lot of people in the phatk thread having the exact same idle problem..
i'm not.. I'm also on bloody.. but it might still be.

ryouiki says it needs a cookie to pull the stats.
I was using ff 'view selection source".. which looks a bit different than "view source" and it had already pulled in the javascript. .. eh lesson learned. wish i had noticed before I pulled my hair out on it.

Righto.   I've been mining solely at Eclipse for a couple of weeks using Phatk though and never run into this problem.   It's just started since using bithopper.

@beef
Those api errors should be fixed. I messed up my scheduler.

Did you happen to see the error I got on page 109?

[c00w]

I get the exact same error when I close the program with ctrl + c. I should write in a check. Did you get that error without closing the program?
