Your rant is appreciated Slax0r.  Coming straight out of the expert's mouth!

Here's a memento from today's flutterblast!   Grin

Good show on the pool.

I'm getting some occasionally weird errors though:

" [2014-09-16 13:17:13] pool 10 JSON stratum auth failed: [
   -1,
   "(2002, \"Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld
/mysqld.sock' (2)\")",
   null"
 

Hmmmmm.  That is super curious because Im not using MySQL for anything and the pool server doesn't use it either.  Its not even installed on that server.

Can you please verify that your "pool 10" is my server?



You are correct Slax0r.  It is not your server.  It's one of the many pools I have on the menu that cgminer occasionally polls and appears to have been acting up.  Yours was pool 32.

But that is weird.  Why would a pool report such a thing?  I never knew that SQL was involved in any pools. 

It depends on the pool server software.  There are only a handful but most servers run an old bandaid patched server written in python called simply enough "stratum-server" which is most often front ended by an apache server that runs an equally out mode'd PHP package.  Both are tightly coupled to MySQL.  Also both were great for their time, but as you have seen; their days are numbered.

Sorry for the wordy explanation.  It isn't often that I get to rant about pool server software.  Roll Eyes
