[zulzedd]

Hi zulzedd,

what is shown if you do a listitem cpids in debug console?

Hi!. Only this:

Code:

17:34:53   listitem cpids


17:34:53 [
             {
             "Command" : "cpids"
             }
             ]

So that is the reason why gridcoin doesnt mine, only projects in that list are considered. Make sure that the mail address you used in gridcoin.conf is related to your project account and that you are a member of team gridcoin. If you changed these setting recently it may take some time to be picked by gridcoin. Try execute resetcpids in debug consule to enforce an update.

Can someone please help? I get this: "CPU projects are exhausted. Sleeping; BOINC Magnitude: 0.000"

[traderman]

I think you have to add more projects to Boinc because the amount of blocks that are dedicated to CPU mining are limited.

I just added another one, I have World Community Grid and Rosetta@home and BOINC seems to be running fine, but I still get the same error

[s4mmy]

I had the same problem that listitem cpids showed only "command:cpids"

I have boincData folder in not default location so I had to set boincdatadir=.....

It seems that those parameters have changed a bit now. Hope this helps for those who have problems.

Thank you! I done this and now i got at least positive BOINC Magnitude, but listitem cpuids still shows me same and "PoB Mining Errors" : "Last block is a CPU block (sleeping)" . Here is screenshot:



Any thoughts?

the last block message is not a real error it just indicates that you are currently not mining because there cant be two cpu blocks in a row, its by design
try listitem cpids instead of listitem cpuids

my boinc is in a non default location
it used to be recognised now my projects are not

settings in gridcoin.conf
boincappfolder=D:\Program Files (x86)\BOINC\
boincdatafolder=D:\Program Files (x86)\BOINC\Data\
Project1=108xxx
Project2=13xxx
Project3=494xxx
Project4=95xxx
Project5=101xxx

In a post above, s4mmy hints that the parameters for the app folder and data folder have changed, but I can't find any documentation of such a change yet.

Anyone?

Edit: changing "folder" to "dir" does seem to fix the problem though, as s4mmy suggests (boincappdir etc. replacing boincappfolder).

try listitem cpids instead of listitem cpuids

Yes, it's working correctly now. Thank you!

Hm... But i got now trouble with WCG project - i can't specify my wallet address as my profile name. It's not enough space in text field to paste GRC address. 4 last symbols are cut.

[traderman]

I don't think you need that anymore. Just the email to be specified in the gridcoin.conf

Yepp correct you can choose any name you want

@zulzedd: do you know what the reason was? which action solved your problem?

Nice! Missed this one.

@zulzedd: do you know what the reason was? which action solved your problem?

Looks like after i updated BOINC manager datadir and appdir pathes changed, so i specified them in gridcoin.conf. Now my configuration file for wallet looks like this (Windows 7 x86):

Code:

server=1 
rpcuser=zulzedd
rpcpassword=my_pass
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 
rpcport=9332
poolmining=false
cpumining=true
email=my_email@gmail.com
suppressminingconsole=true
closeconhost=false
Project=489***
UpdatingLeaderboard=false
boincappdir=C:\Program Files\BOINC\
boincdatadir=C:\Users\All Users\BOINC\

Now i'm adding new projects and configuring pool mining.
