Paying in BTC or paypal to help with PushPool Setup for my mining pool

[djred]

Hello,

I am setting up pushpool on my Ubuntu dedicated server.
I have bitcoind running and i believe the latest blockchains have been downloaded..

When Running "pushpool -E -F"
I get the following output:

Code:

[2012-06-10 16:41:8.792411] Listening on host :: port 8342

[2012-06-10 16:42:11.427321] HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host

The "HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host" starts to show up whenever i attempt to connect to my host via my miner like so:
"miner.exe -o http://IP:8377 -u user -p pass"

I also have mining farm for the front end.
I have created a worker on mining farm and checked that it was in the database correctly..

Here is my server.json file with important information removed of course:

Code:

{
	# network ports
	"listen" : [
		# binary protocol (default), port 8342
		{ "port" : 8342 },

		# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8341
		{ "port" : 8341, "protocol" : "http-json" },

		# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
		# with trusted proxy appserver.example.com forwarding
		# requests to us
		{ "port" : 8377, "protocol" : "http-json",
		  "proxy" : "<my server IP>" },

		# binary protocol, localhost-only port 8338
		{ "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 8338, "protocol" : "binary" }
	],

	# database settings
	"database" : {
		"engine" : "mysql",
		"host" : "localhost",
		"port" : 3306,
		"name" : "DB-NAME",
		"username" : "DB-USER",
		"password" : "BD-PASS",
		"sharelog" : true,
		"stmt.pwdb":"SELECT `password` FROM `pool_worker` WHERE `username` = ?",
		"stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution, time) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, UNIX_TIMESTAMP())"

	},

	# cache settings
	#"memcached" : {
	#	"servers" : [
	#		{ "host" : "localhost", "port" : 11211 }
	#	]
	#},

	"pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

	# overrides local hostname detection
	"forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

	"log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
	"log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

	# the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
	"longpoll.disable" : false,

	# length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds
	"auth.cred_cache.expire" : 75,

	# RPC settings | Notice how this ISN'T port number 8332 this is becuase the same port number should not becuase inconjunction with the JSON RPC port other wise you'll get 500 errors
	"rpc.url" : "http://127.0.0.1:8338/",
	"rpc.user" : "myuser",
	"rpc.pass" : "mypass",

	# rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
	"rpc.target.rewrite" : true
}

My bitcoin is installed under usr/lib/bitcoin/bitcoind

did you setup your bitcoind conf file correctly?

in my bitcoind conf it has user and pass which is the same as i use in the server.json

[djred]

Code:

{ "port" : 8377, "protocol" : "http-json",
		  "proxy" : "<my server IP>" },

comment that out and try it, I think this is causing the problem

same error:

Code:

[2012-06-10 19:54:46.558094] HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host
[2012-06-10 19:54:46.710146] HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host
[2012-06-10 19:54:48.937414] HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host
[2012-06-10 19:54:51.095895] HTTP request failed: couldn't connect to host

but now to connect it is http://IP:8342 instead of 8377

dont know if any progress is being made lol...

ok, helped him get up and running for now. problem was mostly that he had an ancient bitcoin daemon(version 0.3 generation) and an inproper config - no rpcport/rpcallowip set. should be good to go mining now
