My balance is 0 at Bitminter. I can't.
I'm pretty sure that setting up a good old address for spontaneous donations would make lots of people happy.
You could always wait until you have a balance in your account.  |

Simple web backend crash I guess.
Apache is bad. Nginx is better, as a proxy and as a webserver.

negatory on this end.. last one I received was at 0900 something EST, after that was the massive block that was around 95-96% before the website stopped working for me. |

I just received an automatic payment. Everything except the website seems to function nominally.

Website is back up again. Sorry for the downtime.  Mining, payments, everything was running, you just couldn't access the website. And yeah, it was the backend behind Apache that locked up. I might switch to Nginx, I was actually planning to, but Apache has actually done a surprisingly good job. |

Nginx Rocks! and it will beat the apache for sure. But it is a challenge to configure it right  Website is back up again. Sorry for the downtime.

Lately they are finding security holes in Java every day. It is recommended to disable the Java plug-in in your browser. If you are using BitMinter client this should not be a problem. You can start it from the command line instead: javaws http://bitminter.com/client/bitminter.jnlp |

Is this for only people using the bitminter mining client or anyone using site to check live stats etc.? |

I believe the reject percent is dropping now. The restart must have rejected all work for a little while. It will probably converge on an average reject percent or be reset with the next block soon. Let's hope the latter  |

If you have Java plugin activated in your browser then a hacker could leave something on a webpage to take control of your computer if you view that webpage. It can happen to anyone using a browser with Java plugin turned on. It's a bit annoying because Java is how BitMinter client is so easy to start, just clicking on a webpage. If you turn off Java in the browser to protect yourself from hackers then you can't start the miner that way. But as long as Java is still installed it should be possible to start it from commandline with "javaws http://bitminter.com/client/bitminter.jnlp". So you can protect yourself and still use the client. Why are rejects so high right now?
I just restarted the mining server, that causes some rejects. Sorry about that, I try to keep it to a minimum. Update now is faster authentication, which should speed up response a bit especially just after a restart when all users have to get re-authenticated. Also turned off rollntime for cgminer and bfgminer below version 2.7. Please upgrade to the latest version if you use one of those two miners. Once in a while when those old miners start DDoSing the server some miners experience response times up to 30 seconds. It is worst in the "slow response queue", so those miners are mostly DoSing each other. But hopefully this update will help reduce the problem. |

Suggestion: Add a clock to the website. Local server time.

The server is running very smoothly now. We had 1.8 TH/s earlier today and the server load was pretty low. Sorry for the daily restarts and sometimes high response times the last couple days. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing now. It is certainly looking pretty solid. Suggestion: Add a clock to the website. Local server time.
Not a bad idea. Is it annoying to have one ticking away at the top of the page? I suppose better might be to display the timestamps in a timezone chosen by the user, but that would take a bit more work. |
