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

[michelem]

Suddenly I'm locked outside Minera. I am 100% sure of my password, but the page simply does not open. meanwhile the miner is running, as I can see on the pool's webpage... What's up here? Should I reset my install?

Minera version? Did you update recently?

0.4.1

No recent updates Didn't change anything recently... I just leave it running and check from time to time.

Well, weird... Is your Minera reachable from the internet? You could investigate in the logs, but by now to reset the password to "minera" just do this in a terminal:

Code:

echo -n "f6048a781885a51d7156afc13f2fb477" | redis-cli -x set minera_password

EDIT: eh oh well, there is also this bug https://github.com/michelem09/minera/issues/123 as workaround you should use only letters-numbers to be sure your password is saved correctly. I just fixed this but I don't release it yet.

Yes, it's reachable as usual, but can't login, either in my network, or from the outside.

Are the logs in the minera folder?

I've tried your code, and I still cannot login. Also, my password only has letters and numbers

Bro, from what I can tell, your OS doesn't like all the different devices I guess.  So I've limited to just Blades and Zeus and your system loves it now.

I wanted to have different Pi's just running one brand of hardware only but now that little test I was working with confirmed what I was thinking the whole time.  Thank you for taking your time out with me.  Back to to the mining pits...

[Bluecheese]

mich where is the database file for the gridseed's that i can find threw putty ?

You probably didn't understand me or I explained it badly, Minera can save the current frequencies (for CPUminer only) into its local database (Redis), so you can get them every time you want and restart your miner with the right frequencies.

Please look at the picture below, there is a button to save them and a button to get them. Once you get them, you need to put the command line options in your current config from the settings page, so when you restart CPUminer you get the last frequencies you saved.

Yes!!  This was what I was hoping for.  But it's for CPUminer.  What about BFG?  That can change on the fly.  CG need that restart every time.

Okay, okay.  Small steps.

Mmm probably you have a different problem, please look at logs at /var/www/minera/application/logs/log-*
Also check the php log:

Code:

sudo less /var/log/php5-fpm.log

Try to login then check the logs.

Can you tell me what kind of mixed devices aren't working? With what miner software?

[dukester99]

Great Software!

Just a glitch I am experiencing.

On the settings page when I go to change my pool info and click save or save and restart all it does is jump the screen to the middle of the page.

Looks like it just jumps to a different area on the page on other save buttons without doing anything.

I am using ver.0.4.1

Probably you need to fill the Mobileminer data or disable it. Look at settings page, Mobileminer section.

Minera has a nice interface.  I like the graphing and details.

I am also having a problem getting into the web interface after several hrs.  I can SSH in and use the echo command above, but then several hours later it I get locked out and have to do it again.  I am running the 0.4.1 with a single BFL Monarch.  Also running with su level to get the monarch to be detected.  Happens with both bgminer 5.1.0 and cgminer 4.9.1.  When I am locked out it switches the pool priority and the first pool's user name is changed(instead of the full bitcoin address it is half the letters long). I am also using the default password to be sure that isn't the problem.

I did some checking in the logs, but really couldn't see anything odd.  Using 91% of disk space, and 1% of CPU, so that should be ok.  Any suggestions?

oh well, really weird, you should check what the password becomes when this happens. Try to do this from SSH:

Code:

redis-cli get minera_password

Just to know if the password disappears completely or get changed by someone/something.

The pool switched is weird too, can you see if the miner_conf.json file get changed too? It's in /var/www/minera/conf dir, look at the date or look at it.

Is it your Minera reachable by the public Internet?

Thanks for feedbacks

Any ideas?

I did have it exposed to the outside, but now I have that blocked for now.  I also changed the W:192.168.0.1/16 to R:/192.... so now any program can read but can't make changes through the cgminer api.  Also disabled the scan-all.  So far it has been working correctly.  Will update with password details if it happens again.

I did notice another glitch.  If you try to move the 2nd pool to the first spot(dragging with mouse) it will switch the pool urls but not repopulate the first pool username.  You end up the 2nd pool username for both spots.

I've forgot password to minepeon and I decided to give minera a chance.
I have one string miner, bitfury chips, it worked great on minepeon. cgminer and bfgminer on minera can't detect device:

Got two issues i would like some hints on how to start debugging
1) cgminer stops (and restarts) quite often. The cgminer log from the gui seems to only show logelements for the currently running cgminer. how to see what caused issues and then a restart of the miner?
2) Minera stops responding every once and a while. both ssh and http. And no work put forward to the pool either. Where should i like to figure this out?

Very happy with the minera concept by the way;)

Thanks!

[ihascryptos]

i have 8 gridseeds that run great mining scrypt minera (latest release for RaspPi). The seeds fans are removed and i do not want to mine SHA with them. I have a Chili miner that i would like to plug into the Pi with the gridseeds.

is there any way to mine scrypt with the girdseeds on one pool and mine SHA with the Chili on another pool?

[cavaliersrus]

if i remember right i think i seen something about not being able to mix miners... or algo's like sha256 and scrypt i think they have to be the same algo... but i could swear that you cant mix algos... part about miners not 100% sure on but mich could tell you more
