[Minera v0.9.1] Your next mining dashboard - Antminer/CPUminer/CGminer/BFGminer

[darkfriend77]

Thanks for the feedbacks! Many of the stuff you listed is on development and I hope to release something by the end of the week.

For the issue with the graphs, can you check if you have php5-cli installed? Try installing it and see what it tells you:

Code:

sudo apt-get install php5-cli

Please let me know. Thanks!

I think it's still cron_stats instead of cron

If it's so, then just update your Minera, there is a redirect controller for that:

Code:

cd /var/www/minera && sudo git pull

Then if you are still in trouble, check your file /etc/cron.d/minera, it should be:

Code:

*/5 *	* * *	minera	php /var/www/minera/index.php app cron

Hello,
I just update Minera with some new features:

* Miner details table with new data (percentage, serial, last shares)
* Logging, I added some logs you can find in application/logs if you are in trouble it could be useful. They are written all as ERROR log but don't bother that, those aren't (usually) errors
* I added an upgrade script for who have previous versions and there are system updates to do (like changes to the cron file, sudoers or whatever related to the OS) it could be useful to run after a code upgrade.

Said that, this time you should run the upgrade script if you have version previous than 0.1.5:

Code:

sudo ./upgrade_minera.sh

Feedbacks are welcome.
Enjoy!

[highwalker]

any chance this can be used on a linux PC ?

Yes, this should perfectly work on linux box. Which linux flavor are you using?

[highwalker]

michelem, thats great news!! While I can't wait to try the new version, I am having a great run currently and the gridseeds have stabilized after running on autotune for over 7 hours, so currently observing for any hardware errors. I will upgrade soon and share feedback.

One thing I noticed is this on the Dashboard page:
Miner started NaNd 7h 5m 5s ago on Thu May 08 2014

What does that signify(in bold)?

I believe it's supposed to be 0 days and that's how Javascript displays null values.

Correct, NaN means Not A Number it' a small bug think it is a zero

I've run Hashra Mini Controller against Minera for almost 24 hours at Coinshift and here are the results.

Minera Dashboard-much higher rejects and HW, lower hashrate

The results really took my by surprise.  I have been using Hashra's stuff for quite a while with mediocre results.  Their last update really upped the ante.

I'm very new to Minera, so if there are some settings I've goofed up, let me know so I can revise the review.

Thanks for sharing this, what kind of miner software do you run on Hasra Controla? Is it always cpuminer-gc3355?

Are you using the auto-tune feature on Minera? "--gc3355-autotune"

Is 24 hours really enough for auto-tune to do its work? I thought it could take a while to figure out the optimal clocks.

[natbyte]

Hashra Blade CONTROLA version 1.4.5 on an RPi uses a fork of BFGMiner 3.10.0

Is 24 hours really enough for auto-tune to do its work? I thought it could take a while to figure out the optimal clocks.

If it takes over 24 hours to achieve best results, I'm not interested. That would mean every pool change, software update, reboot, power blip, etc would require it to start from scratch. That doesn't work for me.

My understanding is that the auto tune feature maximizes the frequency for the hardware, and that that is unrelated to pool changes.

You can use the API to obtain the frequency values after auto-tune is done and use those to create the command line for any subsequent runs. In fact, this person coded a PHP script to do that:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=482352.msg6603449#msg6603449

Note that in order to tell when auto-tune is done, you should use the --debug option.

[dloganbill]

If that is the case, Sandor and/or Minera should incorporate this.

API now has autotune status for each chip.
0 = autotune off
1 = autotune running
-1 = autotune stopped
So it will be easy to save the resulting frequencies when autotune finished.

very good! I will add this to Minera of course! This could be like the "Lab" page where you see all your previous freq saved in tables, so you can easily start your miner with the table desired. Cool. Let me finish the new stunning settings page and I will work on this too. (ohgod I wish I had 48h days long... )

Can't wait the commit, I need to share with you



And you should see the new dashboard widgets you'll love them

Soon on your best mining controller.

Have a great Weekend guys

[dloganbill]

Looks like a nice improvement.  Can you add up/down arrows to the pools to shift priorities?

[highwalker]

Awaiting the commit to start pulling the latest version!!

Can you also add the two new API features:
1. Dynamic frequency change
2. Auto tune status
