I'm having the same problem and the "fix" doesn't work.  My GUI Miner is not even mining.  It opens up and shows as a tray icon and just sits there.  Turning off virus detection and windows defender software didn't do it...  Not sure what else to try.

As I stated, that didn't work.  The program isn't actually running anything, it only shows up in the task bar.  It doesn't start the miners like the other problem with the disappearing window (which I tried several times anyway).  Learn to read idiot.

What is it suppose to run? Are you talking about, guiminer is not running the kernels? What other program? GUIminer is the program with the missing window.

All I can prob. say is

Nothing seems to be doing the trick.  It just says connection problems.  A shame because I've been using this for a while with no issues.  Weird because mining without this GUI still works fine.

oh, Try a different pool, if it is the pool, use your secondary pool for a day then change back to the one you were having a problem with and see if it is a pool problem.

Not sure if someone else posted this, but ill give at a go anyways...

Sometimes, when I check my computer after it has mined for a day, it makes these weird errors.. The error bar (the one which usually shows how many shares have been accepted) flashes and shows a couple of different error messages...
This is a problem in itself, since it means that the miner isn't running... But something else is that everything goes to the log, and everytime this happens, I have like 56kb left on my C:/ drive :S

Has anyone else experienced this?
I will take a screenshot next time it happens

If you only have 56 KB left on your hard drive, you have more problems than just this one.  You need to have at _least_ a couple of hundred MB free on your machine for windows to run and preferably closer to a GB or you'll have all sorts of problems.

From what you said, my guess is that you're really low on HD drive and windows and it's programs need to have some free 'scratch' space on the hard drive to read/write temporary files.  If you don't have enough room, programs will start having problems and windows may start acting up.

..I think you misunderstood me, I have a couple of gigabytes left, but whenever it starts failing, it fills a log, which in turn fills my harddisk. So it's AFTER it starts making these errors that my free space goes down.

Not sure honestly, but I'm surprised a log/text document will fill up a few GB of space.  You sure something else isn't killing the drive space?

Latest version is working like a champ, one request if there's any new updates on the horizon.

There any way 'failback' can be added to the phoenix miner?  Setting up backup pools with -b works perfectly, but it'd be nice if it tried to automatically failover to the primary servers.  Right now the only way to get back to your primary is stop the miner and restart it.

Thanks!

Could someone please explain to me what
Code:
long poll: IO error
means?

Edit:

I moved from GUIminer guiminer-20110824.exe to guiminer-20110701.exe

I am no longer receiving these long poll: IO errors. Also, my rejected shares has dropped significantly. Tested on Slush's and Deepbit.

Connection for long polling was interrupted for some reason. There are many reasons, usually pool or some router on the way don't handle long living connections properly. Because you sent me full log in PM, I know that's not an issue of my pool, but something on your side is closing connections. From my experience some modems don't handle long living connections properly, maybe something like might be your case...

Ok, I'll jump back to v20110824 and test again @Connection for long polling. Brand new router & modem might be busting my balls.

Thanks, Slush.

@pekv2 - I have found that if you don't use the -v option that the shares are counted by the gui. This is with the phoenix miner, just thought you'd like to know.

Hey thanks, I'm using poclbm, thing is, I need -v or my mhash/s drops by half.

Least others will know of this for phoenix.
