MPoolMonitor 4.2-monitors most pools, idle worker notification, blockchain.info

[mdude77]

It is correct and I can see all my miners and hash rates. Just gives the error.

Also, if you manually hit the refresh button more than once a minute, BTCGuild will complain.  I'll try to change MPoolMonitor in the future to give better feedback about that.

I believe BTCGuild has been having problems.  Not sure if it affects their API output or not, but they have been having problems.

The DDoS/stratum problems had no affect on API, and there have been no changes to the API other than fixing the displayed PPS rate of the pool (it was showing 0 diff/0 rate).

Then it must be my side, or he was clicking refresh manually and hit the 60 second window.  I know while working on the next pool (slush), I found I missed adding some steps to the last two pools.  I've discovered that I don't find problems that others will because I always test all pools at once, and there are certain things that won't surface unless you're only using that pool. 

I hope to have an update out this weekend with slush support and the aforementioned bugs fixed.

Thanks.

Version 2.3 released:
- added support for Slush's pool
- added more informative error handling for each of the pools to indicate bad API key
- added a note to BTCGuild's pool if you try to refresh manually more than once every 30 seconds (thanks poolop for changing from 60!)
- bunch of bug fixes, things I missed on the last few pools I added support for

thanks !

your <Store DB stats> is VERY good idea.

i kindly ask slush to improve stats https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1976.msg1385087#msg1385087 , let me repeat here

modify https://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/ to know shares per worker per round
for example, last round you gave the data

#   Block found at   Duration   Total shares   Your BTC reward   Block #   Block value   Validity
15104   2012-12-07 17:36:25   0:43:42   1655459   0.04892136   211270   25.28510000    89 confirmations left

modify like below

#   Block found at   Duration   Total shares  Pool Ghash/s   Block #   Block value   Validity
15104   2012-12-07 17:36:25   0:43:42   1655459   2700.550 211270   25.28510000    89 confirmations left

Worker shares Worker Mhash/s Worker BTC reward
32684 5238.4 0.04892136

the question is because i can't find/understand i loosing about 25% shares sent to the stratum proxy ( calculate worker shares sent to stratum proxy and compare to account data Average hashrate in last 10 rounds: 5341 Mhash/s )

it will great if PoolMonitor DB collect all data above.

my question to PoolMonitor is - how can i see worker shares per block ?

IMHO - i less want to see PayOutInfo (which provided by slush) and WorkerHashrates (which easy to calculate based on the data), and VERY interesting into collect worker shares accepted by pool per block


many thanks

[mdude77]

The stats might be in the API.  There are two sets of data available from slush, one is block data.  Right now I'm not parsing the block data, but I'll look to see if what you're looking for is there or not.

The stats might be in the API.  There are two sets of data available from slush, one is block data.  Right now I'm not parsing the block data, but I'll look to see if what you're looking for is there or not.

i don't undertsand how to do that in the right way.

what i'm looking for ? Slush provided https://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/ per block, it is enough for my purpose

#           Block found at           Duration   Total shares   Your BTC reward      Block #   Block value   
15128   2012-12-09 01:56:42   0:55:25   2196844           0.04896872              211453   25.16020000

so, there is available shares per block used

what i need more ? to know shares sent by worker and shares accepted by pool per worker per block

of course, you can say - calculate as <Your BTC reward>/((<Block value>/<Total shares>)*98%) = 4190, but i prefer, if posible, to see raw data - how many shares accepted per block per worker.

i'm using Slush stratum mining-proxy exe Windows (can use linux too)...

may be good idea to add feature to stratum mining proxy - to save file with block data, per block. For example, file name = block number, and data per block and per worker(-s), json or csv format. As you know, Slush's stratum mining proxy show to terminal each shares accepted...

is it possible to modify stratum mining proxy to this way ?

OR may be you will improve PoolMonitor to store data to files per blocks. I thinking many files easist way to collect data for all account's workers per block than manage one data base file. May be this way will simplify pool database and stats historial records.

OR may be you can improve PoolMonitor as stratum mining proxy...

What is my goal ? to improve my miner and to find where is my mistake - i calculated hashrates about 7.5Gh/s, pool (have experience with BTCGuild and Slush) show only about 5.3Gh/s

Great work m, this will also help me when the ASICs start their march on various pools  .

Hello.  First, thank you for this. 

I am receiving the error below from OzCoin:

Value can not be null.
Parameter name: source.

I have tried this with two different API Keys and am receiving the same error for both.
Also, I have only installed this for the first time today, so I can't help with when this may have started.

Hope this helps...

Hi, Oz changed their API since I created this, and I haven't yet updated it to support the new API.  It didn't seem like there was any interest in this program, so I wasn't in a hurry to fix it.  I'll see if I can get this fixed in the near future.

[mdude77]

I just updated to 2.4.

The main change to this was changing it to work with Ozcoin's updated API.  There are a few other tweaks as well.

Please note that due to lack of interest and donations, this likely won't be updated much in the future.  BTC are plentiful and valuable, if you want something added, please consider sending a fraction of a BTC my way: 1EARjDYEY2kKX6xwBuypEBs6BzPn4pWBku.

why dont you opensource? i'm sure you will still have donation rolling after opensource.

This will help the community tremendously. (multiple OSs compatiblity even for mobile phones.)

Version 2.5: changed to properly show KH for p2pool litecoin usage.  Should work for those with less than KH as well, although I didn't test it, and not sure why you'd want to run with less than a KH.

Here's my LTC address if you're feeling generous.

I'd have thought it would be relatively easy to get it working with SharpDevelop (http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/Default.aspx) & Mono.

What's the advantage in keeping it Windows only and closed source?

I know Windows.  I don't know linux, and I get ready to pull out the little hair I have every time I try playing with linux.  There seem to be a plethora of apps out there for linux that do what this does, and considering the lack of interest in my app, I don't see a reason why I should time and effort into trying to port it to linux.

Wasn't trying to cause offence. More pointing out that if you do your .Net / Mono development on SharpDevelop with WinForms then it should work on Apple/Windows/Linux with very little tweaking (depending on what you're doing). WinForms is a misleading title, it's this http://www.mono-project.com/WinForms It's actually a pretty nice setup for Mono development.

I've had a quick look at disassembly of it, but there's big holes in what comes out because I don't seem to have some of the dictionaries referenced installed. (Mostly Visual Studio related I think).
