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

[smallplatf]

hi, i'm trying to mine with my bitburner but i got only hw error.
Mcproxy seems to work, but cgminer show 0.000 h/s
Config file ok (i use also a blade)
.bat file
cgminer -o http:localhost:8080 -u *********** -p******* --bitburner-voltage 1400

some help?

ok, hw error could be due to problems with software drivers of bitburner.
which os are you using? it seems win32 (.bat file).

edit:
also:
if you have the original cgminer binary, does it work without hw errors with the same pc and bitburner?
this test is useful to understand if there is a problem with the windows software drivers for bitburner or if there is a problem with the build of modified cgminer.

There is also available for download the binary of a modified bfgminer, in case.

i use .bat file also to mine other altcoins Sha-256 and i haven't problems... on cgminer 3.9.0

ok, we have to check bitburner support in the custom cgminer build. We will come back later on this.

In the meanwhile, can you try to use the custom build of bfgminer?
you can download it from here:

https://github.com/mrtexaznl/bfgminer/releases/download/v3.9.0.1-med/win32-bfgminer-1.zip

[nohow82]

bifgminer doesn't see my bitburner.... also normal bfgminer.... it's normal?

[smallplatf]

bifgminer doesn't see my bitburner.... also normal bfgminer.... it's normal?

can you post the complete output log of cgminer? are there any messages like "usb_write error" or similar?

MediterraneanCoin v0.8.5.2 has been released!

This update covers the following main aspects:

- increased the default number of threads for RPC server (improves responsiveness for solo mining)

- improved behaviour of mcproxy; improvement of performance of mcproxy

- Reduced Transaction fees (does not affect mining; it will reduce fees for forthcoming applications)
limitfreerelay              15 (thousand bytes per minute) Limit of free transaction the client will relay to other nodes
mintxfee                    0.01 (MED) Minimum fee per KB for non free transactions (creation)
minrelaytxfee             0.001 (MED) Minimum fee per KB for non free transaction (relaying)
blockmaxsize             250000 (bytes) Maximum block size
blockminsize              0 (bytes) Minimum block size
blockprioritysize         27000 (bytes) Size of the block reserved for highest-priority transactions (without fee)
maxhighprioritytxsize 5000 (bytes) Maximum size of a transaction to be eligible for highest-priority
DUST_SOFT_LIMIT      0.01 (MED) Minimum output to avoid an additional mintxfee charge
DUST_HARD_LIMIT     0.001 (MED) ignored as wallet inputs (mininput default)


As usual you can donwload both source code and ready to use binaries (produced from gitian builds) of the wallet/daemon:

mining tutorial in windows, where is??

[smallplatf]

mining tutorial in windows, where is??

here it is:


first time run, complete tutorial for solo mining on windows:

0 - prerequisites: you need to have Java 1.6 or greater installed.
If you are unsure if you have Java, go here and follow the instructions to check: https://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp
To install Java, go here and click on the Download button: https://www.java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp?locale=en

1 - download the Windows Wallet binaries from here: http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/downloads/medcoin-win32-v0.8.5.2.tgz
[i.e. you download the archive in "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads"]

2 - uncompress the archive
[i.e. you can uncompress the archive in a directory named "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads\medcoin-win32-v0.8.5.2"]

3 - open an msdos prompt (start button, run, type "cmd" and press enter) and go in the wallet directory with the command:

cd "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads\medcoin-win32-v0.8.5.2"

4 - launch the wallet the first time with the command:

mediterraneancoin-qt.exe -server

if this is the first time you execute mediterraneancoin-qt.exe, you will get a long error message; then you must create a configuration file with username and password:

5 - create and edit the following file "c:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\mediterraneancoin\mediterraneancoin.conf"

this configuration file will contain the following data:

server=1
rpcuser=mediterraneancoinrpc
rpcpassword=<a very long and casual string of characters>
addnode=node1.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node2.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node3.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node4.mediterraneancoin.org

6 - now launch the wallet the second time:

mediterraneancoin-qt.exe -server

now you will see the wallet running and syncing the blockchain; you have to wait for the synchronization to finish before you can solo mine.

7 - in the same msdos prompt (staying in the same "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads\medcoin-win32-v0.8.5.2" directory, now type:

java -jar mcproxy.jar

If mcproxy has started correctly, you should see a message like this:

MediterraneanCoin Proxy
parameters:
wallet hostname: localhost
wallet port: 9372
bind to local address:
local proxy port: 8080

leave the window there, do not close it.

8 - download che modified cgminer (or the modified bfgminer)
you can download the modified cgminer binary from here: http://www.mediterraneancoin.org/downloads/win32-cgminer-mediterraneancoin.zip
or you can download the modified bfgminer binary from here: https://github.com/mrtexaznl/bfgminer/releases/download/v3.9.0.1-med/win32-bfgminer-1.zip

9  - uncompress the archive
[i.e. you uncompress the archive in a directory named "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads\win32-cgminer-mediterraneancoin" if you are using the modified cgminer]

10 - open another ms-dos prompt and go in the cgminer directory:

cd "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Documents\Downloads\win32-cgminer-mediterraneancoin\build-win32"

11 - launch cgminer (or bfgminer)

type the following command:

cgminer -o http://localhost:8080 -u mediterraneancoinrpc -p <the_same_password_of_mediterraneancoin.conf_file> -D -T
(the -D option provides a lot of debug information; it can be useful to provide to the forum for help/debug)

[if using bfgminer, the command would be:
bfgminer --submit-stale -o http://localhost:8080 -u mediterraneancoinrpc -p <the_same_password_of_mediterraneancoin.conf_file> -Q 0 -S all -T --verbose
]

if everything works, after a while you should see something like this:

do you need the full windows installer? we omitted it because of the size, but we can make it available on another link, if you want.

[battsali]

no i have some trouble with my PC
first start and work normal older version , then i read here for new one
and try it and .,.,bam ,.the both stop working
i will find the problem thanks

[smallplatf]

hi all,
in order to speed up sync of the blockchain, if you just downloaded the wallet,

add the following to mediterraneancoin.conf:

addnode=node1.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node2.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node3.mediterraneancoin.org
addnode=node4.mediterraneancoin.org

[battsali]

My problem - when start mediterraneancoin-qt.exe Windows give me error

"Microsoft visual c++ runtime library
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Pleas contact the application's support team for more information."

was so trivial, but message doesn't say anything 
i post here if any have same problem
decision is -> I (you) have error in *.conf file
my error was "rpcpasswordxxxxxx" without "="
i hope to help someone

[arc45]

I'm been minnig for a few days with the help of the developer.

Some tips:

- Try a different port than 8080 if the batch file isn't working. (i.e. java -jar mcproxy.jar -l 1999)
- Try typing in the command within the mcproxy batch file in a cmd window.
- You may need to restart the proxy or custom cgminer after mining for a day or two.

ok, we will have check the source code and see to give a more meaningful message for this error.
