I'm newbie so sorry for this post. Now I'm running on 2 old PC (990x and q6600) for about 20min. I can't see anything posting my wallet adress in worker trucker.

Maybe I have to low power?

My adress: VpuatFMSnZKVybVK4TGAr59NdtpVyZEs3j

Whats your hashrate? Maybe it is too low. P2Pool calculates your hashrate reverse from your submitted shares. If its low it might be very inaccurate.

What's goin' on here.

All was well. I was recieving payments as often as every 10-20 minutes. Then bam, stopped recieiving all payments at 12:51pm today. Still shares being accepted.
Restarted client verified settings. 3 gpus with 1.07 Mhash/s

VTC network is insane fast now, same applies to the quite huge p2pool net. If your hashrate is too low to submit not enough shares above target, you wont get payouts for each block. The share target is currently 0.058963 (3.86k).

OK, so seconds after I posted, I jsut recieved TWO payments, 6 minutes apart (~0.19 each)

So I go from receiving payments every 8-45 minutes, no payments for over 4 hours, then two sudden payments

is that normal

Then I suspect your hashrate being too low. As I said above. You might wish to consider mining on a traditional centralized pool.

Ok, seems to get a lot more accepted now. Can you check if this is now going to get payouts eventually?

So, if I run this on 100 machines with same wallet, would I have to change the difficulty, or is this per worker basically?
The diff setting is per worker, yes.

Ok. I'll let it run and I'll check with you tonight to see if it's paying out.

You will need to submit one share higher than p2pool target diff, currently 0.061893 (4.06k). With 150kH/s it might take some hours.

I'll suggest you keep it running and we will check back later or you try to run more workers to increase the chance of getting shares with higher diff faster.

I'll be afk for some hours now. I hope I could help!

Ugh... It's been hours - the CPU miner address is not even showing up at ALL in the list. Not even talking about pay out.

The GPU miner has been paid some small amounts now, but I noticed it showed in the list RIGHT AWAY, even though it took awhile to get an actual payout.

What gives? I just wasted money on 10 EC2 instances, and the pool hasn't even acknowledged the address exist. Can you help investigate please?


Sorry to hear mate, there is not much more I can do now. I see your shares in the backend but your payout address does not show up in the stats. Either try running your own private node and do some indepth debugging or go to a traditional pool, Sorry!

How long a share is good for?

I had one share and payout went to 0.00 after 3 block and about 1.5hr from share was found.

Usually for 12 hours or 120 blocks, but the vertcoin network is very fast right now. So the 3 blocks might have been within this window. If this happens to you more often your hashrate might be too low for the p2pool network.
