Is that your login info for burnside's youre entering in? you need to setup a worker and worker password in account settings. you then use the workers user/pass in your miner config. your login for burnside's workers should be like user.something. What youre putting in above is the site login info, not the worker.

correct, psillypsycho.1 is the worker login name. the original .conf had that in it, and i still receive problems with connecting. i just changed it and i'm still getting errors.

That's really odd if the worker settings are correct, everything looks right on the surface. that's the litecoin.conf within the reaper folder youre editing and not the one in litecoin program folder or %appdata% right?

[zdavidi]

yes, D:/Data/Litecoin/Reaper to be precise.
I adjusted things a bit and finally got a connection. Going at 5.7kh/s

Yeah youre mining with a cpu and really outdated nvidia card, thats probably as good as it gets. glad to see your problem got resolved, and welcome to burnside's pool!

pooler's cpu miner results in nearly 6x the hash speed. i'm sitting at around 35kh/s now. Weird how I was required to delete and remake my one miner in order to make it work.

[turvarya]

ok, i tried this Reaper and it gave me 9 khash for my radeon hd 6870. that doesn't seem much
any suggestions what to do?

Not trying to be a dick, but rather trying to hopefully show you the futility in what you're doing - but that is barely 1/10th of a single low end AMD mining gpu's output. Youre going to overwork and blow out your cpu and gpu, for absolutely nothing. Just a warning, best of luck to you.

Post confs here (without u/p), you have something setup wrong.

[turvarya]

ok, thanks
I have no idea what u/p means ^^

reaper.conf looks like this

Code:

kernel reaper.cl

enable_graceful_shutdown yes
long_polling yes
platform 0
device 0
threads_per_gpu 2
cpu_mining_threads 0
aggression 13

mine litecoin

litecoin.conf

Code:

protocol litecoin

worksize 128
aggression 10
threads_per_gpu 2
sharethreads 4
lookup_gap 2
gpu_thread_concurrency 6144
long_polling yes

isn't there a site with good suggested configs?

also, can somebody explain, when the litecoin.conf is used and when the reaper.conf and which one is used, when I e.g. but aggression in both

[Rawted]

Just about everything in those is wrong. Please read over and redo your confs according to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=117221.0

You didn't have to be a dck about it. He's got a little more than half of the settings in the right direction just not at the perfect spot.

[Rawted]

Wasn't trying to be a dick, was short on time, apologies if i came off that way.

Also, pool is having some serious issues, or the site is at least. no blocks in 6 hours, last 10 blocks sitting at same confirms, no payouts or balance increases.

Close to 1.5 million  shares submitted over 6 hours without yielding a block, something looks amiss..

Should I expect my miner to be pulling shares right now? I'm trying to get Reaper up and running and after successfully compiling and configuring it I'm not getting any errors, but neither am I pulling any work to process... also, my worker is not showing up as "active" on the pool site, yet I don't receive any authentication or connection errors from Reaper.

coldfusionz, burnside's pool was having some issues this morning. It literally just came back up a few minutes ago. Can you check again and let us know?

The simplecoin cronjob that runs once a minute stopped running last night.  (~8 hrs ago)  Naturally, it has to break while I'm sleeping.

The way it works, it takes out a lock, then only unlocks when it finishes.  So something happened that it didn't finish and release the lock.  From there on out, no more can run until I clear the lock manually.  I've looked at the logs and see no reason that it should have failed.  There's no db errors or script errors or anything.  On a hunch I've added a set_time_limit(0); call at the top.  I really hate it when things break with no idea why.  

You can see on the blocks and payouts though that when I released the lock it caught up with the solved blocks and payouts.

Cheers.

I'm leaning toward it being a problem with my Reaper setup. If I run my cpu miner on this machine, it pulls work fine and the worker shows up as active. Running Reaper instead pulls no work and the worker shows as inactive. The only thing I can think of that might be wrong is that I'm running this on an NVIDIA chipset rather than ATI; I thought Reaper is supposed to support both, just that ATI is a noticeably better performer.

Whats your hash rate? nvidia typically is very slow, and the site wont update your worker stats until it receives a share. Also, some of those settings are for amd gpus only.
