How do you run BFGminer as a blade proxy??

[PatMan]

Ok, I figured out the issue.

Downloaded lastest ubuntu, 13.10 32bit server. Installed updated, and volia, works like a charm.

12.04 didn't have the correct microhttpd.

For those of us still on 12.04 and not wanting to upgrade, what was the correct version/package that worked for you?

It looks like downloading version 0.9.32, configuring it, building it, and installing it is what was required to get it going on 12.04.

EDIT: Be sure to run 'sudo ldconfig' after the install or you might get this error:
error while loading shared libraries libmicrohttpd.so.10

Thankyou-Thankyou-Thankyou-Thankyou!!!!!!!!!!

You, my good sir, have just ended hours of frustration & hair pulling here. I'm a semi noob to Xubuntu, so thought it was me doing something wrong - I've been searching & reading so many different guides on this without success - until I stumbled upon this thread. It worked a treat - I'm forever in your debt my good man.

Praise the Cyber Gods!!

If you are talking to me about getting it working on 12.04 - you are welcome.  It took some hair pulling on my end to get it working so I thought I would share what I learned 

[PatMan]

Yup, I am. I'm surprised Luke didn't put the info in the readme - would have saved us both some time & trouble eh?

Peace

Can anyone provide me a STEP BY STEP on installing this httpd thing?

I cannot download newer versions of debian since I'm trying to get GMAT working, but I can't seem to find any respoitories w/ the correct file.  I have installed httpd5 from the 3 repositories in the list, but that's all I could find.

I found libmicrohttpd 9.20, but that requires httpf10, which requires about 10 other deb packages....  This is so painful and frustrating.  I just want a simply proxy to run on my linux box... in fact, I NEED it on my linux box in order to run my entire blade farm...


please help!!!!

I installed the debian packages here and it works without issue: https://launchpad.net/~rbose-debianizer/+archive/gnunet/+build/4588989

I looked at the 3 deb files, but each depends on each other, so how did you install them? I get errors for all of them when trying to install...

Installed them with dpkg -i. You only need two of them, these are the exact commands I did:

  sudo dpkg -i libmicrohttpd10_0.9.27-0gnu1~12.04_i386.deb
  sudo dpkg -i libmicrohttpd-dev_0.9.27-0gnu1~12.04_i386.deb

Running Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

Help. will give .04BTC for a complete step by step guild on have to configure bfgminer 3.8.0 on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit.
I have read this post up and down and still can't figure it out. I am a little newb so if there is a off site information please include it in your post.
My setup right now
mike@mike-Qosmio-X775:~$ uname -a
Linux mike-Qosmio-X775 3.11.0-14-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 12 17:04:55 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
mike@mike-Qosmio-X775:~$ bfgminer -V
bfgminer 3.8.0

[Lander12]

Woot figured it out. All I need to do was download the 3.8.0 win 32. Not run it on a 32bit system.
Use the --http-port #### on you command line and then run, really simple.

Has anyone else compared the speed running through bfgminer to the speed running through Slush's proxy? Also, does the Proxy miner show up in the bfgminer API Output?

[uberdag]

post so i can find it again

[lin0sspice]

Can you run 5 cubes as same proxy ?
ANd same user ? U:P,U:P ?
on same 5 cubes ?

[Anonymailer]

ANd same user ? U:P,U:P ?
on same 5 cubes ?

yeah but just shows the total hash rate for the whole proxy in bfgminer

If you use separate worker names for each device they show up as separate devices in bfgminer.

I don't know how to set my blade via Slush's proxy,  I was trying use this command:

mining_proxy.exe -o localhost -p 3333 -cu bitcoinrpc -cp password (I already add rpcport=3333 in bitcoin.conf, and my blade point to localhost:8332)

or
mining_proxy.exe -o localhost -p 3333 -cu bitcoinrpc -cp password -sh localhost -sp 3333 -oh localhost -gp 8332

All of them doesn't work.

Would you please tell me how to setuo it. Thank you.
