Regarding the stability of mcproxy, can you report the CPU usage for the java process?

Peaking at 50% and mostly around 35%, going as low as 0% occassionaly. CPU is Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 (2.40GHz)
on Lenovo T500 notebook. RAM usage is around 40MB, no wild swings. Machine runs Win7 64-bit and has 4GB RAM.

what is the hashrate reported by cgminer? A very high cpu usage by mcproxy could be caused by a high hashrate.

[subSTRATA]

I'm using 5 USB Erupters so hashrate is around 1.65 GHash

I was not so smart to compile the modified cgminer in windows: i follow this bible..
https://github.com/mrtexaznl/cgminer/blob/master/windows-build.txt
but now i cant execute "autoreconf" (and dunno why)

Can anyone successfully build it and can share?

thanks

we have provided a win32 build of the modified cgminer, you can find it here:

I like this coin's concept. But I think the name needs to be change to something else. It is too long to spell. Also it is restricted to Mediterranean. Also I suggest to make a pool instead of mining solo.

I got the wallet working, also the cgminer. But the server and solo mining thing just didn't work for me.

[nickolo]

Can anybody post here guide how to solo mine this coin on Windows with USB Erupter?
There is linux guide on the official site but I can not figure out how to make it work on Windows 7 64 bit.

Downloaded the wallet, installed Java, cgminer for medterranean, but can not start it properly... please help!!!

[retek]

Thanks for the win build of cgminer

Now I have this problem: cgminer can't see my erupter..
In cgminer 3.1.1 I use this switch:
-S //./COM6
to let cgminer use my erupter..

I see this version have the icarus support, but how I can tel cgminer where is my erupter?

thanks !

ok, you need to:

1 - start the wallet with -server option; you need also to define rpcuser and rpcpassword
example:

from msdos prompt, cd to windows-build directory and type:

mediterraneancoin-qt  -server -rpcuser=test rpcpassword=choose your password

2 - start mcproxy:
from the same windows-build directory type:
java -jar mcproxy.jar

3 - start the modified cgminer:

cgminer  -o http://localhost:8080 -u test -p <your rpc password>

What about mcproxy? With everything setup properly, you need to run MED wallet then mcproxy and then CGMiner.

try Medit Coin - it's easier to remember

If anyone gets this running on their asic cube or blades please post. I gave up trying.

let's try to troubleshoot the problem:

can you post the output of:
- cgminer
- mcproxy

- is the wallet synced?

[Xaltotun]

I'll just quote myself from my earlier post. Basicly I think cgminer doesn't have drivers for these type of asics and you need a proxy. It seems the proxy works and when I login to the cube I see shares accepted (no rejects).

I was able to get sync'd up after awhile w/ those nodes provided above. It also looks like the windows proxy is running (reminds me of the matrix screensaver). Running the modified cgminer looks the same as the other. But I'm not getting any blocks and cgminer is stuck on the no suitable long poll for localhost. I'm using an asic cube (38 gh/s). It's reporting some activity at 12 gh/s and accepting shares w/ no rejects but cgminer isn't. Any suggestions?

Edit. I'm guessing it's because cgminer is not seeing my cube but the proxy is working and the cube sees that.

ok thanx; instead of cgminer and outside of mediterraneancoin, what miner are you using with your cube?

Judging from you wrote and what I see on my screen (successfuly mining for hours now) you should be getting some blocks.

Unless CGMiner is working mcproxy does not do "Matrix" thing, it just idles. Does CGMiner shows any hashrate at all? I mean,
at 12 GHashes you should be getting 1 block every few minutes. At 38 GHashes it should jump to more than 1 block per minute.

we are asking this in order to evaluate if it the case to modify some other miner (i.e. bfgminer) to work with the modified PoW algorithm.

How about creating a mining pool? No Medit Coin doesn't sound good.
