I also can't seem to locate the git for non-AES-NI for cryptonight-lite miner. The one I built from git was for AES-NI only. And the other was a readme file only. Can someone point me right direction , thanks.

Hi, my pool is currently unable to mine. Not sure exactly what's going on, the daemon rejects mined blocks, even though I've reverted blockchain and daemon to earlier versions.

Please mine on http://52.8.47.33:8080/ which is Arux's pool for now.

51% attack ?

That is the one that only has only a README file in it.... you will have to forgive me my linux is rusty but it's coming back, I have and do quite a bit of mining using linux but I'm struggling on this for some reason.  Any help is appreciated.

btw I ran the following :

wget https://github.com/Arux-BTT/CPUMiner-Multi-cryptonight-light/archive/04082015.tar.gz

tar zxvf 04082015.tar.gz

Then shows only as README.md under ls command.....I imagine I'm just forgetting something, but I did compile the one for AES-NI just fine, however it was a .git file and not a .tar file ...

No, it looks like a bug in the recent update. Currently it appears that only MoneroMooo's pool was affected (the problem occurred when the pool was trying to make a payout). I'm preparing a new release which reverts the changes while continuing to look for a longer term fix.

[Arux]

52.8.47.33:8080 not affected, daemon is still 0.9.1.1

Sometimes happen on cryptonote coins, even when it says its "now synced " might be syncing.

Yes it happens with all of them. It means that you have caught up to a peer, even though that peer is behind the longest chain. So you will keep syncing from other peers.

I'm not sure how Arux is compiling the non-AES cpuminer for Windows, but it's mentioned that mooo's source tree was used:
https://github.com/moneromooo/cpuminer-multi
I would think  it should work with both AES-NI and non-AES systems, although I have never tested w/o AES-NI.

I also can't seem to locate the git for non-AES-NI for cryptonight-lite miner. The one I built from git was for AES-NI only. And the other was a readme file only. Can someone point me right direction , thanks.

[MoneroMooo]

Anyhow I have converted to my R410 server to ubuntu in anticipation of running a pool. I'm wondering if any of you could give or have a "grocery list" of prerequisites, libs, and tools for most of the things we do.

The pool software has a README with the list of steps you need and the prerequisite versions (mostly redis and mode 0.10).
The patches for cn-light are in https://github.com/moneromooo/cryptonote-universal-pool

That's the Wolf miner, which only works with AES-NI.
The one that works without it is https://github.com/iamsmooth/cpuminer-multi

Network update

It seems to be the case now that there was no network problem after all, just a problem with MoneroMooo's node. It wasn't able to propagate any bad transactions or blocks to any other nodes, so only his was affected. This was likely triggered by problem with one of the new features or possibly the upgrade process, combined with the way the pool submits payment transactions to the node.

To prevent this from happening again, I'm creating a new bug fix release that unfortunately reverts all the recent changes that relate to blockchain and transaction processing (including the reduced memory usage). That will restore things to a stable state while I continue to investigate the underlying cause. The other changes such as fixing the mining performance on Windows, transaction fees, improved anonymity, etc. will remain in the new release.

Once the exact cause of the bug is determined the remaining feature improvements can be fixed if necessary and then restored.

I'm finishing final testing on the new release, ETA 1-2 hours.

[smooth]

New version (0.9.4.0)

Mandatory if you are currently using 0.9.2.0 or 0.9.3.0

Recommended for all users

In order to avoid any future problems like the one that happened to MoneroMooo's pool, this release reverts the recent changes to optimize blockchain memory usage and remove stuck tx key images. It is very likely that one of these changes (possibly in connection with some existing bug) caused Mooo's blockchain to become corrupt. Those changes are also present in the pruning test so I recommend discontinuing the test until further notice.

The other recent improvements such as fixing the mining speed on Windows, anonymity improvements, transaction fee, dust reduction, etc. remain in this version.

You will need to download a bootstrap from before the 0.9.2.0-0.9.3.0 changes or resync. Your existing blockchain will be ignored. Resyncing should be significantly faster than before in most cases. The older bootstraps from OP will likely work thought they will require a bit of syncing.

The pruning test branch has been updated to 0.9.4.0, so if you are using that you will need to fetch the update and recompile or wait for a new community-provided build.

Other changes in this release

Optimize sync speed in checkpoint zone
Update seed node list

Good work! Keep it up dude

Great work being done here.

[muchoman]

Nice job! I just have to wait until someone compiles it.

Yes, that branch is what my pool runs. Note that it has other random stuff merged from other places, but it's known to be working (well, as a matter of fact, it's known to be broken just now, but nevermind that).

[smooth]

The pruning test branch has been updated to the latest release 0.9.4.0 so it can be used again, but you will need to pull the latest commits from github (same location as before) and recompile it.

As before I warn not to use it for important services such as high hash rate mining/pools, exchanges, etc. Strictly for experimental purposes right now.

for wolf's version, i used https://github.com/moneromooo/cpuminer-multi.
cross-compiled from linux for win64.
AES-NI was configured as usual (aka nothing particular), non AES-NI was configured with --disable-aes-ni
if you use non AES miner on AES cpu, you will lose AES optimisations! (not tested but it will be very slower)
if you use AES miner on non AES cpu, it fails.

for lucasjones version, i used https://github.com/iamsmooth/cpuminer-multi
cross-compiled from linux for win64 too.
