I see you are keeping up with alternative miners. Thumbs up for that. I was worried whether veox's fork would work, especially since he said he didn't use the API and so it was not tested. Nice!

Could you make a decision to keep only one thread btw? It's kinda confusing.

This is the main/official thread... I just created a newbie thread back when I was a newbie and kept it so anyone else new to the forum could get help.



milone,

I've got an interesting issue

After some time of running , one of my rigs just stops (it's a quit usual event) and CGWatcher doesn't do anything to restart cgminer or reboot PC, although all checks in the "monitor" tab are on.
Also last records in the log say nothing about cgminer was stoped.

What can I do about it?

Thank you

If you can send me a debug report (go to Tests tab and click Create Debug Report button) and the file called cgwatcher.log from your CGWatcher folder I'll try to find what is going wrong.



Hi milone, i have an issue too

It seems that the pool priority won't update when i change it.

For exemple, if in the .conf i put in 0:pool1 and in 1:pool2, and i want to change in 0:pool2 and 1:pool1 via the manage pool and save it, it doesnt take effect.

I need to directly change it in the conf file.

Ps : 1.3.5.2 administrator mode or not, same thing. Win 8 x64

Thx

I'm unable to reproduce this problem in Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. If you also can send me cgwatcher.log from your CGWatcher folder I may be able to find errors that occurred and caused this. I would normally say to make sure CGWatcher is able to write to the folder where the config file is located, but running as Administrator should have fixed that... to be clear you're not storing config files in any of the following?:

C:\Program Files
C:\Program Files (x86)
C:\ProgramData
C:\Windows
C:\Users\\Desktop
