Hi @scprv55 and thank you, hope you like the miner :)
The error you see is on the server side (502 Bad Gateway) - most likely the server is under heavy load or under a DoS attack.
It can be, that you will get 9 from 10 times an error, and 1 time the actual mining info. As long as you get it, everything is ok.
If you really want to, you can change"miningInfo" : "http://pool.burstcoin.party:8081/"to another location that is not under heavy load (for examplehttps://wallet.burst-team.us:8125), but then it can be, that your mining info is not in sync with the pool.To activate the webinterface you need to change
"serverUrl" : "http://192.168.0.100:8080"to your local ip. If you want to use it only on the computer where the miner is running, you can uselocalhost:8080(or some other free port instead of8080).

@crk The percentage shows the plots that were read for the current block.
It should go up to 100% every time. Can you please copy paste your config? How big are your plotfiles and where are they located?For example if you have 2 different plot dirs on the same drive, it will be very slow to read them because the drive will spin like crazy.

Hello,
I have been trying to use this miner and it appears to look through the plots ok but never seems to find or upload a DL?
I have tried with a target deadline of 20 days and now with a target of 3.
I am mining around 10TB on a cloud account and using netdrive to map the cloud to a local drive letter
Any ideas?15:17:23: Submission Max Retry : 3 15:17:23: Buffer Size : 128 MB 15:17:23: Pool Host : http://burst.lexitoshi.uk:8124 (192.99.181.236) 15:17:23: Mininginfo URL : http://burst.lexitoshi.uk:8124 (192.99.181.236) 15:17:23: Wallet URL : http://burstpool.ddns.net:8124 (80.241.208.128) 15:17:23: Target deadline : 3d 15:00:00 15:17:23: Mining intensity : 3 15:17:23: Max plot readers : 8 15:17:23: Log path : creepMiner_20170602_131618.405757.log 15:17:23: -------------------------------------------------- 15:17:23: block# 366696 15:17:23: scoop# 753 15:17:23: baseTarget# 550311 15:17:23: -------------------------------------------------- 15:17:23: -------------------------------------------------- 15:17:23: last block winner: 15:17:23: block# 366695 15:17:23: winner-numeric 16551335739434126739 15:17:23: winner-address 7MEM-787M-ZJE4-GAKED 15:17:23: winner-name Toshiba_worker 15:17:23: -------------------------------------------------- 15:17:30: Dir D:\Burst\plots\0 read (12 files, 231.00 GB total) in 7.484s (~7.72 MB/s) 15:17:35: Dir D:\Burst\plots\45 read (55 files, 1.29 TB total) in 12.296s (~26.84 MB/s) 15:17:38: Dir D:\Burst\plots\44 read (56 files, 1.31 TB total) in 15.390s (~21.83 MB/s) 15:17:38: Dir D:\Burst\plots\41 read (31 files, 496.00 GB total) in 15.468s (~8.02 MB/s) 15:17:41: Dir D:\Burst\plots\63 read (76 files, 1.78 TB total) in 18.374s (~24.82 MB/s) 15:17:46: Dir D:\Burst\plots\43 read (76 files, 1.69 TB total) in 22.843s (~18.91 MB/s) 15:17:47: Dir D:\Burst\plots\42 read (81 files, 1.90 TB total) in 24.140s (~20.13 MB/s) 15:17:47: Dir D:\Burst\plots\30 read (77 files, 1.78 TB total) in 24.265s (~18.73 MB/s)//your code here ```{ "logging" : { "config" : "information", "general" : "information", "miner" : "information", "nonceSubmitter" : "information", "output" : { "dirDone" : true, "lastWinner" : true, "nonceConfirmed" : true, "nonceFound" : true, "nonceOnTheWay" : true, "nonceSent" : true, "plotDone" : false }, "path" : "", "plotReader" : "information", "plotVerifier" : "information", "server" : "fatal", "session" : "error", "socket" : "off", "wallet" : "information" }, "mining" : { "intensity" : 3, "maxBufferSizeMB" : 128, "maxPlotReaders" : 0, "passphrase" : { "algorithm" : "aes-256-cbc", "decrypted" : "", "deleteKey" : false, "encrypted" : "", "iterations" : 0, "key" : "", "salt" : "" }, "plots" : [ "D:\\Burst\\plots\\0", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\30", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\41", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\42", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\43", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\44", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\45", "D:\\Burst\\plots\\63" ], "submissionMaxRetry" : 3, "targetDeadline" : "0y 0m 3d 15:00:00", "timeout" : 45, "urls" : { "miningInfo" : "http://burst.lexitoshi.uk:8124", "submission" : "http://burst.lexitoshi.uk:8124", "wallet" : "http://burstpool.ddns.net:8124" } }, "webserver" : { "credentials" : { "hashed-pass" : "", "hashed-user" : "", "plain-pass" : "", "plain-user" : "" }, "start" : false, "url" : "http://192.168.0.100:8080" } }

Maybe not the right place to ask this but when I'm mining what do these numbers mean 5D + 199 ?
Thanks for clarifying to use localhost for the web interface.
-
@scprv55 I assume you mean the numbers on the pool website.
It looks like this:nU + nQ + nD + n
U: sent, but not confirmed yet
Q: will be sent later
D: not enough yet to payout, need to mine more (or longer)
n: total sent and confirmed
-
@machasm hard to say, did you try version 1.6.0 (development-branch)? If you are on Windows, I can compile and upload the newest version.

I've done my plots and optimized (most of) them, but to be able to optimize I had to do the plots in small sections rather than plotting each drive as one big plot.
I've got 3 HDs, and they are all pretty slow

@Creepsky45 thanks for providing this miner :) Finally yesterday I got to try it for the first time and I like it :) CreepMiner.exe works quite nice. However if I run the creepMiner-cuda.exe I get an error when a nonce is found and doesn't get submitted, which I find strange given the fact that with CreepMiner.exe this doesn't happen.
-
@vExact the CUDA code is still experimental but it should show the same result. What graphics card do you use?
-
@Creepsky45 I have an Nvidia GeForce GT-630M. It comes with my spare laptop I use for Burst mining alone.

btw I have been lately using your miner :) I would upgrade to the newest version for windows in case it becomes available.
-
@vExact actually I uploaded it today: https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/releases/tag/2.6.0.
But there is no cuda version in it at the moment.
-
@Creepsky45 thanks! I actually saw it after having posted my previous reply :)
-
-
@scprv55 I will add it soon (Ubuntu 64 bit).
-
Thank you Creepsky!
Can I ask another question, I'm CPU mining with an i7 and 3 drives (2 internal) 1 external (usb2).
I have forged 2 blocks in just over 2 weeks but most of my deadlines are being found at 20+ days or longer.
Would faster drives help or am I going to need a GPU?
Does CreepMiner use the GPU automatically? or is there a setting I missed?
Cheers!
-
@scprv55 To forge more blocks you need more capacity - ie more drives.
-
Thanks Haitch, I'm going to buy a new drive (maybe today), but I'm trying to figure out if it is just drive capacity that I'm lacking or if its also a speed thing.
Should I get a USB 3 port upgrade or is USB2 enough?
Should I not bother with external drive (USB2 is all my PC has) and instead hook them up using Sata 2
Is it worth upgrading my motherboard to one that has SATA 3?
Appreciate everyone's help!
-
@scprv55 How long does it take you to mine all the drives? USB3 is more desirable than USB2, but if it's what you have - it's what you have.
My latest rig has SATA2, for 20 drives. it's not as fast as I'd like, but it's fast enough.
