Re: [ANN] lolMiner-mnx, Mining MinexCoin(MNX) New version: v0.32 (Mar 22)
The newest version 0.32beta has a problem staying connected to pool. After a few hours (totaly random) miner continues hashing (and spending electricity) but worker is not connected to the pool (not mining for me).
Why so bold? No need to highlight your text that way - I am reading every post here! Can you send me the console log of your miner when this happens? Usually when the connection does down I should be able to see something in this logs. Also miner should reconnect or something like this when a share is send but it doesn't get an answer from pool. So either something is broken on pool side or one of my many safety mechanisms is not working properly (e.g. Reconnect to pool when no new job for 10 minutes, reconnect when no response to send share for 10 seconds, miner should stop sending work to GPU when there is no connection on the user connector (when fee one is broken it should get slower but not stop working) ... ) You see there are certain things that should prevent this, but I can not say why this does not work, so your config file and the text log of the miner in such a situation would be great so I can hunt down this bug.
Sorry mate, seemed a great idea at the time.
I noticed problem on a few rigs, which are not at the same location (or ISP). I use a plain config file with only pool (mnx.suprnova.cc), port (7077), and my login credentials changed. I will copy and paste log the next time it happens, but the last time it was ordinary, just showing correctly hash (all 5 cards working) but no submitting or accepted shares, just the hashes. Worker goes off the pool, and the only thing i do is just closing the miner and restarting it again, and it works like a charm, worker reappears and everyting is ok. I will post it next time it happens, but it looks plain, like this...

Maybe I should try --max-connection-attempts command set to 5 or something like this, as I'm using plain config file with only login credentials changed?
