Was it only sgminer benchmark that didn't work as expected or was it any other mining software as well that failed? Is Sgminer working fine when when you use it outside the benchmark, at show up with hashrate in the list of miners in Awesome Miner?
Only sgminer. No, sgminer does not report any data back to AM. I have tried with "--text-only" as well. What address should I send the log to again?
I have tried it locally and on a remote miner with the same issue ... not data being sent back to AM for display. The console shows and it says it is running, but no API data.
A Managed Miner (and Managed Profit Miner) do have API settings for cgminer/sgminer where the API should be enabled by default. These settings are however not visible if you have a Managed Profit Miner. What you could try is to re-create the miner to get all the default settings and see if it's working better.
As toptek12 suggested (see
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676942.msg45411663#msg45411663), you could also manually try to enable the API via the command line.
If you are unable to resolve the issue, please send me an e-mail (info[at]awesomeminer.com) and include the log file. I'm interested in looking at the command line that Awesome Miner uses to launch sgminer.
