OFFICIAL CGMINER mining software thread for linux/win/osx/mips/arm/r-pi 4.11.1

[dbabo]

Gents,
 i'm getting the following in daemon's log file:

05/01/13 02:53:10 askfor block 78476d7e335cc20fa24d   1367376790000000
05/01/13 02:53:10 ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED
05/01/13 02:53:10 getblocks -1 to 00000000000000000000 limit 500

I run cgimer by pointing it to the PC with litecoind running (solo)

Code:

cgminer --scrypt -o localhost:9332 -u user -p pass 

I'm observing "New block detected on the network " message in the cgminer every 5 minutes or so. Hash rate is ~620Kh/s. I'm on HD 7970.
What does it mean for the current block miner works on - does it mean miner will stop working on current and try to get a new one?

thank you

I have a problem with cgminer. I get only 350 on a 7870GHz editon at 1250 core... But with GUIminer I get 453... I think it is a problem with me changing SDK and drivers finding the right combination and don't knowing how to remove openCL from cgminer.

I have deleted file phatk121016Pitcairnv1w256l4.bin from cgminer folder but this doesn't help... What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: And from the file I would say it is using "flegs" -v -w256 -I4" Can I change them to -w128 since I get better results in GUI with them.

Figure it out... I had to add -k poclbm and it works even better then it was...  Looks like I found a better SDK and driver combination(as one that I had before reinstall) in the last cat 13.4... But that means that cgminer in auto mode didn't used best kernel... Not sure why

Weird. I thought all 7xxx cards defaulted to -k poclbm -w 64 -v 1. Try those settings.

Is there a way to see what cgminer defaults to for the kernel, vectors and worksize?  I read the README's and I couldn't find it, but I could have just missed it.

Besides just running it without any option and seeing what kind of kernel it compiles?

Not sure if it's because I'm on Ubuntu 13.04 or what, but I'm getting this error again when I upgrade to cgminer 3.1:

Code:

./cgminer: error while loading shared libraries: libjansson.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

My bad when I built it. Reuploaded now.

I am having same issue with one uploaded 4/29. Using Lubuntu 12.10. Reverting to older version. Love CGMiner thank you for all the hard work!

For the last day I get maaaany "rejected... <unknown-work>" errors. Hashrate down to bottom. What's going on??

Cgminer says :
Connected to mining.eligius.st diff 1 with stratum as user XXXX

Then I have no idea and that's the first time this bug has been reported, and no other pool has such an issue. Since the vast majority of miners use cgminer on most pools, I'd have had a report. Perhaps since the original owner of the pool wrote competing software, he could go to great lengths to find a way to make sure you use it. Knowing our history I wouldn't put it past him. Maybe when time permits I'll investigate but in the meantime you're free to do what you like, be that mine on another pool or use different software. If you desperately want to use cgminer and that pool in combination, you can probably revert to getwork protocol with --fix-protocol.

Since the exact same problem for this pool is being reported even with their recommended hostile fork software, there is zero evidence this is a cgminer problem so I am going to assume this is a pool problem and not investigate further.

I'm trying to interface with the RPC API via curl, and am always getting "Invalid command" returned in the status string back from cgminer.  I have tried telnetting to the api (to avoid any problems with curl submitting headers, etc) and I get exactly the same thing.  Normally I would expect it to be my fault and I'm just getting the syntax messed up, but perhaps someone pointing it out to me publicly may help other poor shlupps too in the same situation.

I try via curl:

Code:

curl -X POST -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"command":"summary"}' http://localhost:4028

And via telnet:

Code:

telnet localhost 4028
summary

And I get the same reply either way:

Code:

STATUS=E,When=1367429875,Code=14,Msg=Invalid command,Description=cgminer 3.1.0|

Any help pointing out my error(s) would be appreciated.  I'm guessing curl isn't submitting a JSON valid request and thus cgminer responds in plain-text, otherwise it would reply in JSON.  But then, shouldn't telnet work?

My cgminer launch string is "./cgminer --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1"

And via telnet:

Code:

telnet localhost 4028
summary

Use :

Code:

echo -n "summary" | netcat localhost 4028

Commands don't have carriage return/line feeds at the end...

Thanks gyverlb!  Tip sent

I would like to ask since currently I don't have hi enough temperature to test and don't find in readme.

If I use

--auto-gpu
and
--auto-fan

What will be used first to get to target temperature? Fan, GPU or both? I'm getting ready for the summer

[rav3n_pl]

1st fan will be maxed then clock will decrease.

Thanks. I thought that much but wanted to be sure

Hmm, it doesn't appear the wbesite is working...

kaspersky is saying "Malware" "UDS: DangerousObject.Multi.Generic" in cgminer.exe and has deleted it?

From the FAQ in the top post

Q: Is this a virus?
A: Cgminer is being packaged with other trojan scripts and some antivirus
software is falsely accusing cgminer.exe as being the actual virus, rather
than whatever it is being packaged with. If you installed cgminer yourself,
then you do not have a virus on your computer. Complain to your antivirus
software company. They seem to be flagging even source code now from cgminer
as viruses, even though text source files can't do anything by themself.
