does anyone have a mirror/copy of http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/3.1/cgminer-3.1.0-x86_64-built.tar.bz2 or the latest? .


The website has been down for a while now and I'm trying to setup a new miner! I'm really excited to get this one going but the website being down has put a bit of a spanner in the works


Seems its back up if only I was a second more patient.

Quick question when using the api, I am not in front of anything I can test it on and someone just asked me a question.

Code:

 setconfig|name,N (*)
               none           There is no reply section just the STATUS section
                              stating the results of setting 'name' to N
                              The valid values for name are currently:
                              queue, scantime, expiry
                              N is an integer in the range 0 to 9999

Seems to imply that you can use it to change the config file on the fly, I would imagine it would be something like "setconfig|config1.config" and then "setconfig|config.config" to change it back.

Am I right or do I have the wrong end of the stick?  Also, would I need to send a reset to get it to re-read the file?

Nope, the text there is literal.

Code:

The valid values for name are currently: queue, scantime, expiry

i.e. you can only set "name" to one of "queue", "scantime" or "expiry"
... and you are changing the running cgminer with them.

Edit: cgminer doesn't track the source of the runtime arguments
Thus when you write the configuration back it writes the whole configuration in the default or chosen file.

I have a bit of an issue, maybe a bug in cgminer.

I have two machines running, one with 2 x 7950 and 1 x 7970. The other has a single 7970.

I get this error - Which I assume is my internet dropping and reconnecting:

http://users.on.net/pacey/error.jpg

One machine (The big one) cgminer crashes. The other machine with the single card, cgminer just hangs (Doesn't crash), and does nothing (Doesn't reconnect or resume hashing).


Can anyone give me any input as to fix this, or maybe tell it to reconnect? I'm thinking on my big machine, when cgminer crashes, this could be a bit more of an issue than just a simple reconnect?

Can anyone help me? These drops and non restarts at 3-4-5am are making me lose hashes on my biggest machine

It's a unique windows only bug so we've not been able to reproduce it.
Try a debug build on windows.

Thanks mate, really appreciate it.

I have noticed lately that it doesn't crash any more, cgminer just hangs (Without the cgminer has stopped working window).

Does this mean the debugger won't give you the information you need?

Goddamnit windows. A debug build may behave differently anyway so it's still worth a shot.

[The Mafia]

ok thanks, I will give it a shot, or try and make it crash.

Sorry about not using linux, lol.

ckolivas, I think the debug version of cgminer might me a bit old? It doesn't recognise the option "--scrypt"

Sorry to be a pain in the butt!

I just built it but I guess I missed that. Hang on while I make another.

Ok, all done. Its running now. I will let you know when it crashes (If it does) and gives me some output.

Is it ok to just post it here??
