Why don't you make like a bee and buzz off?

Mmm looking at your username and profile, funny this comes from you after asking if there is Monero support in the works.

Didn't know that computers, code, etc, had a 'country'. Isn't this forum supposed to be about sharing/gaining knowledge & incite? Helping those who understand less. It's done for the common good. The love of a hobby, for some. Maybe this forum is here because we have fun. None of that says 'I'm from whatever country'. And it certainly doesn't scream that so 'n so is smarter than the other. We ALL have something to contribute. So, be humble. Be inquisitive. Be grateful. Can't we all just get along?

That being said...still need help with a .bat for nicehash/westhash. I don't get what I'm doing wrong. Can't be that dang hard but getting workio thread terminating error. Sample plz.

Thank You

Yes it is. You don't have to agree to share knowledge though.

As far as a bat file, it's pretty easy to make one. If it's crashing you probably don't have the most up to date driver.

Here is what I have in mine

Code:

ccminer.exe -q -a quark -o stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3345 -u  -p x -o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3345 -u  -p x

once again - no more from me on that subject ...

as for the workio error ...

it seems that i can duplicate that error on my end also ... simply by increasing the intensity ( -i ) ...

do you have -i set? ... if not - then maybe the default intensity is too high for the setup of your cards ...

especially if you are overclocking them already ( at least thats what i understand - as the intensity setting increases the number of cuda threads ) ...

simple bensam ... watch ...

btw - that batch file can be simplified ( if you want it that way ) to include the username and password in a single command rather than two separate .. if you want it that way that is ...

-O username:password ... rather than -u username - p password ...

also - sp does have a cryptonight optimized miner ... its just a private one ...

so become a donor and you get it as a private miner ...

Ok....must be having a brain fart today. Setting up a .bat file for running nicehash. Solo mining runs fine for x11, but I'm having trouble with quark. Comes up telling me workio thread terminating. Would somebody else that mines on nicehash mind showing me a sample of a Windows .bat.

I assume your URL and algo are correct? I have seen a very similar problem and it only happened on nice/westhash and
only when running from a bat file. First, try the same ccminer command directly from the command line. Also try
another pool (like yaamp) from the bat file. If you only have problems with nicehash and only from the bat file it may
be the same problem I had.

In my case the bat file was working then it stopped working, failing to connect to the startum server.
A reboot fixed it (good old Windows). I have no idea what caused it. Gice it a try.

another 4 machines to be rebuilt with f20x64 today and will have those on again and mining ...

You do realize that F20 is scheduled for EOL at the end of June? I'm planning to upgrade to Centos 7.1
and Cuda 7. I did a test compile on a Virtualbox VM without any issues as long as I use the Cuda run
file installer so I can skip installing the drivers (the VM don't like Nvidia drivers). Won't have to upgrade
the OS for several years.

I hope this question isn't off topic, I'm not aware of a cuda HW thread.

Does anyone have any experience with Gigabyte's half length 970? I'm concerned heat
would be an issue with everything crammed into half the space. If not it could be
suitable in a smaller case.

I run a Zotac 970. It is "half-length" as you describe it.

Heat comes mostly from the GPU core, (yes, VRAM and VRM's etc do generate some heat, but not like the GPU core does) so while I do not have experience with any of the longer length cards, I can say that my card works just fine. OC's decently well with stock BIOS.

Hey all,

Thanks for the input for my .bat. I had already done everything mentioned so I have no flippin idea. Something is kicking me in nice/west. Works fine in yaamp. I'll work on it.

Thank you

yes - i do understand that ...

all of the servers we have are RHEL based - scientific linux - that have the same support lifespan ...

unfortunately NONE of them have the bleeding edge tech that fedora has ...

then again - there really isnt any need to have that for miners when the new ones are built ( custom framed ones with 12 cards per rig ) ...

i used to use centos AGES ago until the kernel itself refused to run with more than 1 280x in it ...

thats all fixed now - and we mostly have nvidia cards in the farm - so may try it out ... both scientific linux AND centos ...

for now though - the rebuild of the current farm needs to finish as we are missing almost 1/3rd the hashrate because they are down ...

does cuda 7 work well - compiling and stability and all? ...

thats actually strange - as yaamp seems to be more of an issue than westhash with regards to rejects / drops in connections ...

only an hour ago - we couldnt access the site at all ...

could it be a firewall issue somewhere? ... just a stab in the dark there ...

Reject rate on lyra2 is still high on release 50. I am only about 81% accepted. I have no special settings in the bat and using Windows 7 64bit.

This is a disconnect from the pool. Happens when there is a lot of traffic. You need to use a bat file  wait and loop.

or use a minercontrol software like "miner control"
