[ANN] [SHA256]+[CPU] MediterraneanCoin (MED) - REUSE your ERUPTER!!

[nohow82]

i got this message
no suitable long-pool found for http://localhost

What's wrong?

[smallplatf]

i got this message
no suitable long-pool found for http://localhost

What's wrong?

it's ok, mcproxy does not implement longpool mining protocol. cgminer gives that message as a warning.

[Adamlm]

The innovation in algo is notable, but I think this coin needs:

- a new, shorter name
- a new, modern logo "coin like"
- better marketing

i got this message

and got only hw error

Some help?

People having issues with windows 7 64 do this.

1: Download and install this driver (http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx) to make Block Erupters show up as COM devices.
2: Plug in your USB Block Erupters
3. download http://zadig.akeo.ie/
4. go to options--> list all devices
5. select "CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controler" and reinstall Driver.  You just have to do this once.
6. create mediterraneancoin.conf file in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\mediterraneancoin
in the config put:

rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=9372
rpcallowip=*

7. Shift+Right click --> Open Command Window in the folder you installed the wallet and type in "mediterraneancoin-qt  -server".
8. start mcproxy by running the bat file "runmcproxy.bat" that is with the wallet
9. start the cgminer http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/downloads/win32-cgminer-mediterraneancoin.zip
cgminer  -o http://localhost:8080 -u user -p password

do you have java installed?

[nohow82]

yes i have java. in task manager i see javaw32.exe after i started mcproxy.jar.
I' ve launched cgminer with this settings
cgminer  -o http://localhost:8080 -u * -p * --bitburner-voltage  1400 --avalon-cutoff 70
i have the same message
pool 0 not providing work fast enough

i see on cgminer connected to localhost without LP diff 1.05K
I've launched wallet as server, created config file and put him on mediterranean folder but nothing.
Windows 7 64 bit

I use bitburner fury for other sha256 currencies without problems.

trying to get mining to work. does it make sense with a atom cpu and a usb erupter?

in case there are any giveaways:

edit: figured it out. i was using 2 computers for this.

this setup doesnt work:

computer A:

computer B:
mcproxy
cgminer with erupter


but this one does:

Ma659Qz425BnMu3ZbCtBiGXaxs3C1gHX1g

mcproxy has the following parameters:
-s: hostname of wallet/pool (default: localhost)
-p: port of wallet/pool (default: 9372)
-b: bind to local address (default: )
-l: local proxy port (default: 8080)
-v: verbose

so, in the first setup, I would try:
 
mcproxy -s ip_address_of_computer_A

[ehmdjii]

mcproxy has the following parameters:
-s: hostname of wallet/pool (default: localhost)
-p: port of wallet/pool (default: 9372)
-b: bind to local address (default: )
-l: local proxy port (default: 8080)
-v: verbose

so, in the first setup, I would try:
 
mcproxy -s ip_address_of_computer_A

i had the parameters correct for sure. the connection was also working, as you can see from the error message.


anyways, what is the chance to find a block with one erupter at current difficulty?

for information: what OS are you using on the two pcs?


in the last thee hours, I have found three blocks with 4 erupters running.

if I where you, I would solo mine for next 12 hours. Just a guess, of course.

Ma659Qz425BnMu3ZbCtBiGXaxs3C1gHX1g

I am seeing this now too. My block finding ratio is down by a factor of 30. Something suddenly went wrong with the proxy perhaps. Lots of exceptions.

for information: what OS are you using on the two pcs?

in the last thee hours, I have found three blocks with 4 erupters running.

if I where you, I would solo mine for next 12 hours. Just a guess, of course.

the one with the wallet and mcproxy is windows7 64bit and the one with the erupter is ubuntu 32bit.

i noticed that the wallet is taking lots of cpu sometimes. when i then restart the proxy, everything is back to normal.

we have corrected a slowness with the wallet (the wallet blocks when it receives a "getblocks" command from a peer with a high number of blocks requested) and updated the source code on github.
This problem is compatible with what you observe (mcproxy produces errors) since qt-wallet stops temporarily responding to rpc requests (i.e. from mcproxy) when responding to long getblocks requests.


If you are confident with building the wallet you can build it when you want, else you will have to wait for a new gitian build (forthcoming).

[subSTRATA]

For solo mining without LP, in CGMiner reduce scantime to 1 second and queue to 0 over (S)ettings menu.

[digit]

Been mining with one BE for past few days, first 24 hours i was finding a block every 2-3 hours, now its gone up to average 3-5 hours.  Its something interesting to try and if not for MED, my BE would be just lying around doing nothing.

I had some of those errors earlier, i found restarting proxy/cgminer seem fix it temporarily,  also I found more blocks when my computer was idle so better results probably if u used a separate laptop etc for it so CPU is not being shared with other stuff. 

using the the win7/32 bit versions/cgminer that were posted on website for this.
