Sorry to drop this noobish question on you, but it is something fundamental that I am just not sure of  :D

When pool mining (or expecting any other transfers) does the client have to be open, running and correctly synced? Do the coins still arrive if client is not running? What if client is running but lost sync? So far I have been keeping client open at all times and making sure it stayed synced just to be safe  ;D

EDIT: In case I wasn't clear, with client I mean the qt client, or wallet.

Wallet doesn't have to be open.  Look at the wallet as an image of whats on the network.  Its looks at your account and updates.  That data is held on the infrastructure so no, you don't need your wallet open but good to update once a day i suggest.

Thank you very much sir :)

i think i've figured out the problem, just need someone with a ready linux box to test out my theory. PM me if you have one.

You can create a droplet for a few cents an hour to test it.

no need,
I pmed about a machine I own

Hello everyone... the reason I shut down the pool is due to a bug in protosharesd that causes it to randomly crash.  Others are experiencing this bug since the fork and we are unable to determine the exact cause.  I have started a 1 BTC bounty to help identify and resolve the issues associated with the command line version crashing on linux.

Anyway.. I will be away from my computer for a couple of hours, but I (and others) need this fix urgently because we cannot keep our linux server processes going.

Confirmed. Happening on my protosharesd as well.

Weird thing is, I coulnd't even compile at first. I had to search and replace this file all occurrences of "TIME_UTC" with "TIME_UTC_", as Snard's suggested on irc :

/usr/include/boost/thread/xtime.hpp


Can the bug be somehow related? Debian 7 x64, btw.  I got protosharesd to compile on ubuntu 13.04 x64 with no problems, but it crashes.
I'll check if protosharesd also crashes on my debian.

edit:
Here's what I have :

Ubuntu 13.04 - protosharesd compiled normally and now crashes every few minutes
Debian 7 - Was unable to compile both protosharesd and protoshares-qt,  edited above file, now compiles normally and does not crash

Do I get a btc? :)

maybe lost some environment

Good morning.  And hope someone comes forward.

PS.  I can post a job at freelancers if you like?
