I'm plagued with these stratum interrupted disconnects. Several of my miners will print a couple more lines and then just stop. Anything I can do to keep them running??? TIA
There's a bug in there somewhere which only recently got fixed in the git master code, so no official release has the fix. If you're building your own cgminer you can try it from git. Usually trying a different pool will make them go away as a workaround - it's a temporarily blocked network connection and pools with more resources don't suffer from it. There is also a stratum disconnect issue on windows from which cgminer never recovers, no idea if this one has been fixed with the latest changes or not.
Thanks, that's the only thing that correlates. Of my ten miners the ones on bigger LTC never seem to hang, but, the ones mining microcoins do.
I'm trying to install Git and pull the latest changes, but, git pull isn't working. I did the following (from Windows-Build readme.txt) and it seemed (me neophyte) to work fine:
Install Git into MinGW/MSYS:
http://msysgit.github.io/, click Downloads tab for the latest "Portable" git archive.
Copy the git*.exe files from the bin folder and put them into \MinGW\bin.
Copy the share\git-core folder to \MinGW\share.
To test if it is working, open a MinGW shell and type the following:
git config --global core.autocrlf false (note: one time run only)
git clone git://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git
$ git clone git://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer.git
Cloning into 'cgminer'...

Then I tried permutations of the following and nothing worked:
If you just want to update the source after you have already cloned, type:
git pull
"git pull" did not work for me. Try the following which does the same thing:
git fetch && git merge FETCH_HEAD
Now you can get the latest source directly from github.
$ git pull
git: 'pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
$ git pull origin master
git: 'pull' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
$ git fetch && git merge FETCH_HEAD
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
