Hi, im want to try linux agent for awesomeminer, but having issues with it. Maybe anyone know how to solve it ?

Thanks for your question.

Is it only Bminer that doesn't start or are no mining software starting? If you go to the folder below, do you see any bminer files or folders?
/home/tonis/.config/AwesomeMinerService/

Yes its same for all, im using Ubuntu 16.04, tryed 18.04, same for all. Tryed on Hiveos, works well.

Thanks for the update. Can you please check that the packages for both "screen" and "bash" are installed on this system?

"screen" was one of the problems, but one more problem is that AwesomeMinerService by default located in /AwesomeMinerSerivice/bminer......... After i copied  to /home/user/AwesomeMinerService, miner started and work all well.
Another problem, i cannot controll Overlock Settings. coolbits set to 28, nividia prime, still nothing. Any advice ? ubuntu 18.04

Thanks for the update. I assume you are on development version 6.1.12 for the clocking on Linux.

When you perform a clocking operation on Linux, there will be a log file entry "NV:ExecuteCommand" in the Remote Agent log file (~/.local/share/AwesomeMinerService/) that will state the command line used to set nVidia clocking. If you manually execute this command, do you get any more detailed error messages?

Hi Patrike, two suggestions for the program.

You have already put in the pool of each coin the field NOTES: to leave notes on the currency, if you miss the difficulty, if you do not have exchange etc ... But you have to go to coins and look for it. You can do that in COINS when you click twice on the coin, leave also the same NOTES field that we have in the pool. And I do not mean a different one, if I put something in notes in the currency pool, it would also come out in coins when I double-clicked it. It is quicker to access this information and edit it from coins, because it is only a double click, than to access options> pools> find currency> edit. I think it's quite simple



Another suggestion: THE exchange filter for each currency is fantastic, I can not express how much I thank you, it is very useful. I was wondering if when displaying the exchange list of a currency you would put in bold color, or with an Asterisk, or even that only the exchange would come out where you have data. Something to know at a glance by scrolling which exchanges we have data for that currency. If not, I have to go and look for that information elsewhere. But as you receive it by API, if it is in 3, highlight those 3, or put them first, or underline them, be as it is to highlight them of the rest of exchanges that do not have data of that currency. It would be even more functional.

Thanks for your attention

Hello Patrike,
I think the new way AM calculate grin is little too optimistic. In my own example, for a hashrate of 45 H/s, with stats set to "current", AM tells me i would gain around 1.89 coin per day. For real, i get around 1.12.
So to have a more realistic number, i had to set a profit factor of 0.68 in coin properties.
I don't know it it's a real issue but i prefer to make a feedback on this...

in currency settings, advanced, PROFIT 0.80

No coin makes exact what wins. You have to measure pools / currency, the PROFIT of 0.80 is Grin29 with Sparkpool

I do not feel like experimenting because I do not deconfigure.

How to use the native AW overclocking? I have no idea how to do it. I know that if I frame it, the aftherburner configuration is unchecked, but I do not know anymore.

Do they serve the same profiles that I already have?

The Awesome Miner overclocking works very similar to the Afterburner overclocking feature. As you notice you just have to enable it via the Options dialog and then it's being used automatically.

The GPU properties you can adjust may be a little different depending on what card you have if you compare Awesome Miner and Afterburner, but in general you should be able to use the same clocking profiles like before.

As this feature is currently in a Development version right now, the documentation on the web site is not yet updated to reflect this new feature.

Even if I use the AW version, can I leave the Aftherburner installed in the rig, without the MSI SERVER, just to see the OC applied by AW? does not interfere with having Aftherburner installed?

Until I'm sure I do not want to touch anything that could cause problems

[Binary100100]

I have no idea what happened but on my AMD rig nothing is working right anymore. I'm trying the 6.1.12 version but since installing I can't use the rig at all. I'm trying to avoid doing a clean install of Windows 10 since I'm not sure that's the problem. It's not virtual memory because I have 256G allocated for that.

Anyway, here's what I'm experiencing:

For Grin using GrinPro Miner 1.1 it starts and stops a few times and then crashes the Remote Agent (updated to latest version as well.)

====================================================================================================
C:\Users\Greg\AppData\Roaming\AwesomeMinerService\grinpro_1_1_5\GrinProMiner.exe  api-port=4032

...

====================================================================================================
Mining Engine Process started, PID: 2364
> Failed to initialize CoreCLR, HRESULT: 0x80070057

====================================================================================================
Unexpected exit of mining software. Possible cause: Incorrect configuration or crashing software
Diagnostics completed

This error message indicates that GrinPro miner failed to load because it couldn't find or initialize .NET Core 2.2.1 (or ASP.NET Core 2.2.1). This is however a bit strange as you say you can run it manually which indicates that you should have these packages installed already.

If you open cmd.exe and execute the following two command, do you get the same error?
cd C:\Users\Greg\AppData\Roaming\AwesomeMinerService\grinpro_1_1_5
GrinProMiner.exe  api-port=4032

ERROR   Listen errorUnable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
-

This isn't just GrinPro miner related either. I tried to mine ETH and it yielded the same results.
I opted for pastebin for the Windows logs so I wouldn't spam the forum thread more than I already may have. Sorry about that. I couldn't find an option to attach text files.
Any help that you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks.

I tried a bit with F2pool grin and found out that for the error message above, you need to force Grin Pro to use SSL connection. In the Properties of your pool in Awesome Miner, please set the Pool Connection URL to:
stratum+ssl://grin29.f2pool.com:13654

So if I use the command it comes up, receives about 6 shares and then gives the error. Now if I try Awesome Miner the command prompt pops up and then disappears instantly and then remote agent crashes then Awesome Miner says "service offline"

EDIT:
Well out of frustration I just did a clean install of Windows 10 and reinstalled everything from scratch. So far everything is running fine. It's strange that this happened in the first place.
Sidenote: I attempted to inquire on another thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5090427.940 but the people there aren't in the least bit helpful. So thanks for your time and patience at least.

I just did a test in a small rig. I have stopped MSI SERVER and in AM I have put the OC to be awesome miner.

I have forced several changes of something with different OC but in the rig the OC has not moved. I have left Aftherburner installed to know if the OC changes.

When I finished testing I went back to the usual with MSI SERVER and changed to AM and left it as usual.

That rig gave me problems, I had to go to the GPU and do the Mapping of the GPUs again to make it work.

As you said no info in your documentation please post the link here when you update it. I would like to use the most stable system. Sometimes the MSI SERVER stops working and you have to change the name of the folder in all the RIGS.

Right now I'm still with Aftherburne and MSI SERVER until there's more information on how to use your new OC version correctly.

I've been playing around with the Linux remote agent.  My first rig came up and started working right away, but I'm having issues with my 2nd rig.  When I look at the remote agent log, I see a bunch of these:

Code:

So in AM, the miner shows up as "Service offline", but when I go to Managed Hosts and click "Test connection", I get the following message:

Successfully connected to Awesome Miner Remote Agent/Service 6.1.11

I uninstalled and reinstalled the remote agent, but I still have the issue.

I'm running nvOC 19.30 (Ubuntu 18.04), btw.  I like this distro since it is all setup for mining out of the box and has a bash file where I set the GPU clocks and power.

If there's another distro that provides basics I need, I'm not opposed to give that a go.  What Linux distro do you guys use with AM?

EDIT: Did a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server and after getting it all setup with the latest drivers, etc, I installed the remote agent.  Getting the exact same errors as on the nvOC distro.

Hello Patrike.

I think the Native overclocking does not work correctly or I can not configure it correctly. First, I do not understand why when we create an OC profile, we have to choose a particular miner and then a card. I guess a link is created between the OC profile and the miner or the card, right? I think this fact can be a headache because the ideal is to use it automatically in each algorithm that is needed applied only to profite profiles. Well, I'll explain. I have two different cards, one 1070ti and one 2070, and I have created several different OCs. The fact is that I apply the OC that I consider in the algorithms that I consider in each different profite profile, which is how we finally identify each one of the miners that we have. The fact is that when applied in a profite profile, the power limit is respected, but both the Core and the Mem are activated in the other profit profiles although they are not activated in the second. Logically, I keep the AB to see how the OC behaves. Can it be by using the option to clone profiles? Something does not work correctly  

To provide more information:

I started to realize when I noticed that some miners gave me an error. This happened because I have an OC for 2070 wild memory (+850) that the 1070ti can not support. The fact is that when the OC was activated for 2070, the 1070ti gave error by hanging the miner.

In this rig I only have two cards, but I have one rig with 6 cards and with 3 different types and I was going crazy

Another thing:

At the beginning I tried using the AB OC, since I have OC profiles in curve mode for the Core, that is, the AB allows you to create curved profiles for the different memory sets, so if your card is stable to +500 mem with Core +200 in power 70%, it is possible that with power 100% it is not, and these curved profiles allow you a stable OC setting only Mem, and vary the Core according to the Power that you set. The fact is that in the first tests, I left without clicking the Core, so that AM respected the core of the AB. The result is that when activated in a defined algorithm, it is respected, but at the same time the value is fixed in the AM, so in successive Oc profiles in AM, the core is fixed in advance, not respecting the changing value of the OC curve. I do not know if I explain myself very well.

This last one is the reason why I have rejected to do OC with the AB and to put myself with the native one, finding the problem exposed to me first.

@patrike or @mopiddo I have a problem. For days I have noticed that Bminer does not work well for me and I use other miners.
Today reviewing optiona> managed software when entering Bminer, I see that it has some enabled by default, but they do not have the text of "A-l-g-o" does not put Cucka29, or tensory. But he does not let me put it manually either.

If I enter any other miner, I see that if they have defined the "A-l-g-o" or I can define it manually, but it does not leave me.

How can I fix this, right now I can not use Bminer in anything.

Default AM BMiner URL for version v6.1.12 is:

Code:

https://www.bminercontent.com/releases/bminer-v14.1.0-373029c-amd64.zip

This requires CUDA 10 and I have not used this version since not all my rigs are migrated to the CUDA 10 drivers.

BMiner doesn't require the algo input parameter and thus the screen says you're unable to configure command line arguments in the said screenshot. I beleive it just negotiates and choose the algo automatically when connecting to pool stratums.

You may need to deliberately run diagnostics and see the output as to why it hasn't been working properly for you, either manually execute the command line through command prompt window, via .bat file, or if you want to do it in AM for a profit miner, probably easiest to do is to

-> Duplicate a profile (or just create a blank profile) for the problematic miner
-> Disable all software except bminer in profit profile
-> Optional (artificially inflate hashrate one of the BMiner supported algos that you have identified as problematic)
-> Assign the problematic miner with this temporary profit profile
-> Right click -> Diagnostics
-> Share the output of the diagnostics and see if anyone can pickup what might be wrong if it's not trivial.

Thanks for the suggestions.

About the notes field -  I understand your point here, but it's a bit similar to the discussion we had about Pool Profit Factor where a pool property would be related to a coin. I think this will have to be part of a concept later on where you have a Pools tab in addition to a Coins tab.

It's no problem to leave MSI Afterburner installed. You can switch overclocking provider in the Options dialog as many times as you want.

I've updated the documentation page for GPU overclocking. It also contains information about how to troubleshoot if needed.
https://support.awesomeminer.com/support/solutions/articles/35000086015-gpu-overclocking

Please note that for several of the OC settings, it's not possible to use MSI Afterburner to detect if it's applied correctly. For some settings, MSI Afterburner must be restarted for the new settings to show up and for a few other settings MSI Afterburner have it's own way of reading/setting clocking so any changes you define using other applications will not show up. For this reason I pointed out in the documentation that you should use the Reload-button in Awesome Miner to verify the settings.

EDIT: Did a clean install of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Server and after getting it all setup with the latest drivers, etc, I installed the remote agent.  Getting the exact same errors as on the nvOC distro.

Thanks for your question

I assume you only have one single Host for this Linux miner defined in the Options dialog, Managed Hosts section. This host must have the "Linux" checkbox active and there shouldn't be any other hosts in the list connecting to the same computer. Can you verify this?

Can you also review the Awesome Miner application log file for any error message about this connection problem?

I know that a number of users have been running Remote Agent on HiveOS. I will however give nvOC a try to see if I can reproduce the problem you point out.

Hello Patrike.

I think the Native overclocking does not work correctly or I can not configure it correctly. First, I do not understand why when we create an OC profile, we have to choose a particular miner and then a card. I guess a link is created between the OC profile and the miner or the card, right? I think this fact can be a headache because the ideal is to use it automatically in each algorithm that is needed applied only to profite profiles. Well, I'll explain. I have two different cards, one 1070ti and one 2070, and I have created several different OCs. The fact is that I apply the OC that I consider in the algorithms that I consider in each different profite profile, which is how we finally identify each one of the miners that we have. The fact is that when applied in a profite profile, the power limit is respected, but both the Core and the Mem are activated in the other profit profiles although they are not activated in the second. Logically, I keep the AB to see how the OC behaves. Can it be by using the option to clone profiles? Something does not work correctly  

To provide more information:

I started to realize when I noticed that some miners gave me an error. This happened because I have an OC for 2070 wild memory (+850) that the 1070ti can not support. The fact is that when the OC was activated for 2070, the 1070ti gave error by hanging the miner.

In this rig I only have two cards, but I have one rig with 6 cards and with 3 different types and I was going crazy

Another thing:

At the beginning I tried using the AB OC, since I have OC profiles in curve mode for the Core, that is, the AB allows you to create curved profiles for the different memory sets, so if your card is stable to +500 mem with Core +200 in power 70%, it is possible that with power 100% it is not, and these curved profiles allow you a stable OC setting only Mem, and vary the Core according to the Power that you set. The fact is that in the first tests, I left without clicking the Core, so that AM respected the core of the AB. The result is that when activated in a defined algorithm, it is respected, but at the same time the value is fixed in the AM, so in successive Oc profiles in AM, the core is fixed in advance, not respecting the changing value of the OC curve. I do not know if I explain myself very well.

This last one is the reason why I have rejected to do OC with the AB and to put myself with the native one, finding the problem exposed to me first.

Thanks for taking the time to try out this.

The Clocking Profile concept will be redesigned soon. The difficulty is that depending on which GPU you have, the clocking properties are different. Some cards support Target Temperature while others don't, and so on. By forcing you to setup a Clocking Profile based on what a specific card supports will make sure you don't try to set properties that isn't supported.

Please note that as soon as you save the Clocking Profile, it has no link to the specific miner or GPU, and it can be applied to any miner and and GPU. If you try to apply it to a GPU where a property isn't supported, that specific property will be ignored.

Just like before when you used MSI Afterburner, you have to define a Clocking Group if you have a mix of GPU types and want to specify a unique profile for each GPU type.

I've also updated the documentation for GPU overclocking with the Native feature and some troubleshooting suggestions:
https://support.awesomeminer.com/support/solutions/articles/35000086015-gpu-overclocking

The curve you are referring to, I assume it's the one in the "Voltage/Frequency curve editor" inside MSI Afterburner? Awesome Miner doesn't support this VFC feature yet but it's on the todo-list.

bminer-v14.3.0-cbb8683-amd64

It can not be that, several people in my telegram group have the same url, which is the default one in AM and to them if it works, although it does not include the ticket of each a-l-g-o

It is the default download on your page, you can see it on the Ann link of BTC talk
and also I repeat that it is the one that AM includes by default

What is your Bminer url in the options> managed software> BMINER panel?

Default AM BMiner URL for version v6.1.12 is:

Code:

https://www.bminercontent.com/releases/bminer-v14.1.0-373029c-amd64.zip

This requires CUDA 10 and I have not used this version since not all my rigs are migrated to the CUDA 10 drivers.

BMiner doesn't require the algo input parameter and thus the screen says you're unable to configure command line arguments in the said screenshot. I beleive it just negotiates and choose the algo automatically when connecting to pool stratums.

You may need to deliberately run diagnostics and see the output as to why it hasn't been working properly for you, either manually execute the command line through command prompt window, via .bat file, or if you want to do it in AM for a profit miner, probably easiest to do is to

-> Duplicate a profile (or just create a blank profile) for the problematic miner
-> Disable all software except bminer in profit profile
-> Optional (artificially inflate hashrate one of the BMiner supported algos that you have identified as problematic)
-> Assign the problematic miner with this temporary profit profile
-> Right click -> Diagnostics
-> Share the output of the diagnostics and see if anyone can pickup what might be wrong if it's not trivial.

Thanks for sharing all good points above.

I just wanted to give a short comment about why Awesome Miner don't have the algorithm names listed in the Managed Software dialog for Bminer.

For most mining software you have a concept of a command line argument specifying the algorithm, for example "phi2" that will give the result "-a phi2" for example. Using the Managed Software dialog you can customize this per algorithm to make it "phi2 -I 15" resulting in "-a phi2 -I 15".

For Bminer you don't have a separate command line argument for the algorithm name, instead it's part of the generated URL parameter that looks something like "cuckaroo29://username:password@grin29.f2pool.com:13654" where Awesome Miner automatically set the part "cuckaroo29" based on the algorithm you have for the pool/coin. As the algorithm argument is part of the URL with Bminer, it's not possible to simply add additional command line arguments to it with the current design.

I agree with all troubleshooting steps above. The Diagnostics button is my best friend
