[ANN][RIC] Riecoin: constellations POW *CPU* HARD FORK successful, world record

[fairglu]

if you get illegal instruction try this

make clean LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib make -j4 -f Makefile.mtune

and run it again. If it still gets a segfault, (let me know, please) and try this

make clean LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib make -j4 -f Makefile.nomarch

This has a default 2% donation that can be set using the -d option (-d 2.5 would be 2.5% donation)

I've compiled it yesterday and it works fine on www.xpoolx.com

Both mtune and nomarch fail to compile, only default makefile compiles :/

This under 64bit Ubuntu 14 LTS, running on an E3 processor.

ypool appears down for last 6 hours or so , cannot log in

xpool is working but usually after a few minutes logged in all submitted shares become invalid

maybe ill open a few vm's for solo mining but that is unlikely to be easy for me to hit a block easily , taking long time to get blockchain

[xpoolx]

You can't solomining cause wallet is stuck at block 355665 that's the reason of the invalid shares on xpoolx.com

Solo mining would work, and ypool is back online now. I'd like more pools so I still want to see xpoolx working, I'll investigate the invalid shares problem. The issue is either on the pool or the miner, not the wallet.

[xpoolx]

Wallet was stuck at block 355665 for 24 hours +/-. Looks like its working fine now and xpoolx.com is back online. Feel free to test it!

[cinnamon_carter]

solomining always works in a peer to peer system even if all pools are down,

even if a block was not found in weeks or months if you are able to solve one and are connected to a network you become the tallest chain

if you wallet was not synching up , restart it (and if on linux maybe your machine )  and try the daemon again !

 

Gatra is quite correct the client is functioning 100% ok --

if i can help out in any way let me know !!

edit one::  ypool functioning normal,  xpool cannot connect to at the present .... all my wallets are synched , block height 355996 epoch time stamp 1446248223


edit two:  7 hours later cannot log into ypool or xpool, I am sure they will be up and running soon .....  solomining is working great .....except for one thing,  my calculations show each miner I have running has a 50% chance of solving a block in the next 37 moinths...... one of these days...... when I really get some free time I am going to try to work on an optimized miner,  I know it is possilbe I can imagine it.... but will need study to get my thoughts into code.....

How can you soloming if wallet is stuck at block 356094 and 13 hour unsynced?

Synching does not require mining to be undergoing, just having connections to peers with the latest mined block.

However the current difficulty is very high, and the solominer built into the wallet is quite inefficient compared to xptminer, so finding a block is even more difficult... also there are just a few dozen machines running full nodes (which could potentially mine), vs hundreds of machines running miners.
A few solominers could take months to find the next block...

If you have trouble synching, I could put a bootstrap somewhere, otherwise adding the addnode list from https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ric/#!network should be enough.

If you have a wallet up to date u will see it's stuck at block 356552 for 24 hours. If you restart the wallet u will see it's 24 hours unsynched and if you see the blockchain u will see block 356552 was solved by ypool 24 hours ago. So what can we do now?

ypool crashed so mined no new blocks, 356552 is the last block mined (you can do a "riecoin-cli getpeerinfo | grep startingheight | sort" to see the last blocks known to other peers)

Besides having ypool restarted, all we can do is set the wallets to mining, and hope to sludge through the next retarget...

Other option would be to get a stratum pool working, but that has proved problematic, and with a chain stuck at high difficulty it would be hard to get it fixed, so I guess first order of things would be to get the stratum pool working on testnet (with low diff), and once it's stable enough, switch to mainnet.

(for the moment I've been unable to run the stratum xptminer under Ubuntu, cf previous posts)

Thanks for the information. With yout help finally i fixed the problem with invalid shares on www.xpoolx.com

Now you can mine at www.xpoolx.com Riecoins and lets try to solve the stuck block

[bcie]

things are moving again, albeit slowly.

[Simba84]

I do not like the protocol stratum, which is slow in the connection and shares lost ... We're all waiting ypool

Nice!

I have finally found some machines on which the stratum xptminer, I guess there is some distribution-specific bug, it crashes with a segmentation fault on all Ubuntu 14 LTS I ran it on, but works on Debian 8.

Pity the ypool crash happened just after a retarget, now there are many blocks to go through until the next retarget.

XpoolX now tagged in the explorer!

[Simba84]

ypool is finally closed???

[merc84]

ypool is finally closed???

Ypool has been under ddos for several days or more now, admin is waiting on hosting provider to apply ddos protection not sure what the cause for delay is on their end.

[fairglu]

xpoolx now has enough hashrate for the chain to advance, but 230 blocks until next difficulty adjustment means something like 3 to 5 days.

I would help out, but the compiled miner binaries segfault (with Illegal Instruction) on my AMD machines on CentOS 6.5 
Gatra ... if you still involved let me know how I can actually debug this.

[xjodoin]

I created a working docker image for ubuntu 14.04

docker run -d xjodoin/docker-fastrie /usr/fastrie/xptMiner/xptminer -m -o xpoolx.com:3333 -u username.workername -p password

Have fun

[xpoolx]

Hi

Finally i made some changes with the stratum code and i fix all the problems with the pool

No more invalid shares or non-submitted shares

Now you can connect all the hashing power to www.xpoolx.com

Thanks!
