M's Miner (Ant/SP) Monitor v5.2: alerts,auto/mass/scheduled reboot/mobile miner

[mdude77]

Very nice looking program, but I can't get it running. Scanning finds my 5 ants, but they don't show up in the Ants page. Manually adding their IPs doesn't work either.

All 5 are running the latest firmware, default username/password, stock CGminer, API access enabled for CGremote, and overclocked to 400MHz.

Network looks like this:

192.168.1.x

My PC --> wired to router --> wireless bridge to garage --> bridged router to 8port switch --> 8 port switch to 2nd 8 port switch --> 5 ants

I can access them all normally through Firefox.

My app uses the Windows "browser" object to talk to the Ants.  That's Microsoft speak for imbedded internet explorer.  What version of IE do you have?  Are you able to get to your ants via IE?

M

Aw IE eew, let me install it and try again.

I know. .Net is Microsoft centric.

On the bright side, if you check the code, you'll see they make it really simple to do things like this.

For those that have a problem with it not working for your S1s, or all your S1s, please open an IE browser and try navigating to this URL:

http://<insert your ant's IP>/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=/admin/status/minerstatus/

eg:

http://192.168.0.99/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=/admin/status/minerstatus/

What you should get is the authentication page.  Enter the right credentials, then you should end up on the minerstatus page.

Let me know what happens when you try this.

I get to the authentication page i enter the credentials and see the miner status page no problem...

Okay, so far that's the same as my app.  Now, with that on the screen, change the URL to the next Ant and see what happens.

While obviously this was designed for the S1, does this work with the S2 as well? Can it?

Someone has to try it who has an S2.  I suspect it won't work, as the pages have to *exactly* match what the S1 has.

S2s are still a bit out of my price range.

I get asked for the credentials again, and then when i enter them it brings me to the same page.

Just a hunch.  Can you make sure your browser cache setting are set to "every visit to page"?

tools -> internet options -> settings on that page, and change the radio button from "automatic" to "Every visit to page", if it's not there already.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

Now it's not showing any of them. And when i try to click the refresh button i get the following:

Alright.  Try closing the app, going into the registry, and rename or delete this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\mantmonitor

Then re-open the app and see what happens.

If you don't feel comfortable working the registry, you might not want to do this, as if you delete the wrong thing, very bad things will happen.

Hmmm. If thats the case then I can't see how me upgrading the cgminer patch would affect that since browser access even by MS Explorer is still possible.

That fixed the refreshing issue but still no miner showing up

I agree.

I've got 9 ants here, hard wired via ethernet, and they all show up for me.  I'm at a loss at the moment why they aren't all showing up for everyone else.

I may have add a debug option where it'll display what happens and some output that you can then capture and post for me.

Ok, here is a quick update.

So i have 7 Ants that i have specifically assigned IP to and none of them show up on the list.
I also have 5 Ants that have no specific IP assigned to them and they all show up on the list.

Maybe this helps somehow.

Can you give me an example?  What is an address that you've specifically assigned, and one that you haven't?

[drukoz]

all my miners show up as in the IP's but when i go to the refresh page nothing happens and no miners show up i have 4

[mdude77]

In an attempt to figure out why most Ants seem to work, but some doesn't, I made some minor changes and pushed out v1.1.  The only thing different in this version is there are 3 tabs for each of the 3 browsers that run under the hood to talk to your Ants.  These are full fledged browsers, so you can click on them and enter data, so be careful what you do.

Those of you with Ants being found (which doesn't use the browser object), but not working, please try this and tell me/show me what you see on the browser tabs.

Thats a screen of one of the miners. The Ants tab remains empty.

The only I see different is you don't have all 3 pools populated.  Try adding a 3rd pool, whatever, garbage if it needs to be.
