Mining Pool?

[Vizierx]

Is to pay 1 pts wisely ? it grown transactions counts...

[kenpodragon]

I've gotten paid 24 PTS from them. Not sure what the issue everyone else is having.

[luckybit]

NO paidout for me???? SHARES ACCEPTED AND BLOCK TICKKING ON THE SITE LIKE CRAZY!!! BUT NOTHING FOR ME??? WTF,,,??? BAD POOL THATS WHY NO OPEN SOURCE!!!

Took me about 2 hours to receive my first payment..they don't payout less than 1 PTS

Apparently they don't pay out more than 1PTS either. Currently it's not worth it to mine. It costs more to mine than 1PTS an hour or whatever.

How can it only be 1PTS when you have huge pools set up to mine it? it doesn't make sense.

I am alpha-testing a new miner pool with 2x the hash power and less memory requirements...

Mined overnight 120 accepts/ 163 rejects and no payment. Doesn't show anything in my earnings tab either.

Address: PqvKb94R3Kh3TQ8c2Nz6sZuST9kCBLUmin

EDIT: Checked and saw its only 0.3 PTS yet. Seems minng is a total waste  :(

Is anyone on Linux getting decent accept/reject rates? I have 91.1% rejects.

I have 100% rejects on Linux and Windows. What is causing this?

Try starting it with a different -genproclimit #. I got 91% rejects with 8 processes on an 8 CPU server. When I restarted it with -genproclimit 4, my rejects went down to ~60%. Though my hashrate also went down from 11 to 8. Granted, I checked my PTS address after 1 hr and it still shows No Earnings. So take it for what it's worth.

Also, is there a linux client?

Get a the SC out or a linux variant and I'll throw a couple hundred servers at it. :D

Source at github https://github.com/donSchoe/ptsminer

Any instructions on how to get it set up in Linux?

hi try out this guide http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=798.0

just use https://github.com/donSchoe/ptsminer instead of the primecoin version. its the same codebase.

Ah! Now i see it: I have closed the client and start it again. Then the earnings are displayed instead...

A bug in the client?

[3dtr]

I got paid instantly.

Did you use the correct address?

Yes, the address is right. I checked it again.

Is there somewhere something like http://blockexplorer.com/ ?

Now i should have three payouts from 15:35, 16:15, 16:57... But didn't see any of them in my wallet, yet :(
I have good connection to the network and the client is up-to-date...

How long does it take to see earings in my own wallet?

On the the http://54.238.185.113/wallet page i see that i earn at 15:35 but it's not in my wallet, yet.

http://54.238.185.113/blocks/311 are some stats

I´ve never mined before. How can I set my own address in the .bat or .exe file that I downloaded from the pool website?
Thanks for your help.

You edit the .bat file (either x32  or x64 depending on your computer) and replace the PTS address that's in the text file with your own.  That becomes basically your ID, payments go to it.

great. Thanks!

[3dtr]

Some more statistics like eligius would be great.

and a statistic page for every address would be good. e.g.: something like this: http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1EN3EqqQfqq484WNATFAMA13VXpJuJNv5c

Here a variant: I add a "routine" to select the number of processes. In this case you can

Code Select Expand

@echo off

if "%1"=="" (
    start /LOW cmd.exe /V /C %~s0 gogogo
    goto:eof
)

set exe=ptsminer_x64.exe

set proclimit=1
call:select_limit

REM Insert your address here:
set parameter=%parameter% -pooluser=PpwbYJisZ8ga7jdDnKTHSEiQAwQEH8Qtbg

set parameter=%parameter% -poolpassword=0
set parameter=%parameter% -poolip=54.238.185.113
set parameter=%parameter% -poolport=2336
set parameter=%parameter% -genproclimit=%proclimit%

echo %exe%
echo ----------------------------------------------------------------------
echo %parameter%
echo ----------------------------------------------------------------------
echo pause...
ping -n 3 localhost >NUL


:start
    title %exe% %parameter%
    echo on
    %exe% %parameter%
    @echo off
    echo pause...
    ping -n 10 localhost >NUL
goto start

:select_limit
    echo.
    echo Note: ca. 0.75GB RAM needed per process
    set /p proclimit_choice=proc limit [1,2,3,4...x] ?
    if not defined proclimit_choice (
        echo use default proc limit: %proclimit%
    ) else (
        set proclimit=%proclimit_choice%
        echo set proc limit to %proclimit_choice%
    )
goto:eof


You can also change the line call:select_limit with this e.g.:

Code Select Expand

set proclimit=1
if "%USERDOMAIN%"=="Fat_FooBar_Machine" (
    set proclimit=3
)
if "%USERDOMAIN%"=="med_FooBar_Machine" (
    set proclimit=2
    set exe=ptsminer_x32.exe
)
if "%USERDOMAIN%"=="FooBar" (
    call:select_limit
)

started to mine the pool. could someone explain the screen / data on it?

[kenpodragon]

Just to note everyone, because this spawns individual threads you can do genproclimit much higher. i980 24GB I can use genproclimit 8 and still have room for coffee.

[Lighthouse]

I'm getting a high rate of rejections, like 3:1 - does that get better?  Also my khash/s is showing as 0.0000khash/s - should that be updating?   

In the bat file did I need to change anything besides the payout address?

Edit:
Looks like it does get better, my hash rate showed up after about 10 minutes and after a half hour i'm to 55% valid 44% rejected.

[3dtr]

Here is my batch for stating ptsminer:

Code Select Expand

@echo off

if "%1"=="" (
    start /LOW cmd.exe /V /C %~s0 gogogo
    goto:eof
)

set exe=ptsminer_x64.exe

set proclimit=1
if "%USERDOMAIN%"=="Fat_FooBar_Machine" (
    set proclimit=3
)
if "%USERDOMAIN%"=="med_FooBar_Machine" (
    set proclimit=2
    set exe=ptsminer_x32.exe
)

REM Insert your address here:
set parameter=%parameter% -pooluser=PpwbYJisZ8ga7jdDnKTHSEiQAwQEH8Qtbg

set parameter=%parameter% -poolpassword=0
set parameter=%parameter% -poolip=54.238.185.113
set parameter=%parameter% -poolport=2336
set parameter=%parameter% -genproclimit=%proclimit%

echo %exe%
echo ----------------------------------------------------------------------
echo %parameter%
echo ----------------------------------------------------------------------
echo pause...
ping -n 3 localhost >NUL


:start
    title %exe% %parameter%
    echo on
    %exe% %parameter%
    @echo off
    echo pause...
    ping -n 10 localhost >NUL
goto start

A few notes:
The Batch starts himself wif priority LOW, so the mining process will inherit this.
You can change the proclimit=1 by "windows machine name"... So you can use the same script on different machines e.g.: a fat machine with more RAM and a small machine with less RAM.
In the same way works the %exe% thing. So you can use the same script if you have a 32Bit windows and some machines with 64bit ones...

So in two hours of blocks, you only got one pts?

Probably should have been a bit more specific..sorry! :-) I started mining at about 8.30am GMT this morning and it took about 90 minutes to receive my first payment of just over 1PTS. Since then(another 20 minutes) I have received one more payment of 1PTS. I'm not running a lot of mining power against the pool, so I'm not expecting big payments but at least they will be more regular that waiting to find a full block whilst solo mining.

Hope that helps!

Are you seeing your earning here? : http://54.238.185.113/wallet
the date should be entered in yyyy-mm-dd

I've been mining for an hour and a half or so on 5.5 h/pm and still "no earnings".  What's your hash rate?

Yes, my payments are showing up on the wallet page and a calendar pops up to enter the date. I'm hashing at about 16h/m

Mine just appeared as well. Thanks.

the web thingy doesn't work... i have been paid and it still doesn't show... so... just keep at it, i only hash at like 9 so... yeah, about 2 hours...
Other comments retracted!
WANT PUBLIC APOLOGY??

I humbly BOW before the might of the POOL PROGRAMMER!!!

Ha! Good to hear its working for you!

Does anybody know how long a round is on this pool...just interested to know how frequently payments will come?

Thx.

Someone has been working on a pool here http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=16.0

And according their stat - it's working http://54.238.185.113/blocks

Yeah a pool would be good, my laptop isn't getting any more blocks :(

[smith88]

at current diff you get around 1 block per day with 10 hashs/min plus/minus luck.

so with 240 hahspermin you should find 1 per hour :D

excellent, thank you. :)

Hard to mine without pool now. ::)

How many hash were you running?  I agree, haven't seen anything yet.

Thanks for the update...looking forward to plugging into it!

We are working to put one together as quickly as possible.   It will clearly be necessary.

Hi ere,

Just wondering is there any news about a Protoshares mining pool?

Cheers,
