Here are the changes for this release:

  • Fixed the problem with the watchdog timer when solo mining

Ran 4.2b overnight in solo mode on geth - confirmed working fine.

Understood, that makes sense, no worries.

Great to see the new beta, and trying it out right now. It still has the problem that I and a couple of others have reported about solo mode with GetWork - it still dumps out saying that a Stratum thread is not responding.  This version is still not usable for solo mining using geth client.  Version 4.0b works fine.

  Thank you for the log! We have found the problem and it will be fixed in PhoenixMiner 4.2b, which will be out in a few days.


Excellent, thank you!

Please take our apologies about the lack of forum activity in the last month. We have our plates full when the new version enters "pre-release limbo" and is time to squeeze out the bugs, so our policy is generally to "block out" the outside world for a few weeks and concentrate on our main job - making PhoenixMiner better.

With that being said - the first beta of the 4.2 is ready. You can download PhoenixMiner 4.2a from here:

I'm having the same issue.  I'm mining Callisto (CLO).  I had been using Parity with its built-in stratum support, but since they have not updated their Parity client (rust-callisto) for last week's hard fork, I tried to switch to Geth, which doesn't have stratum - thus needing to switch to the RPC interface for get_work.  This is where the issue comes in.

I am setting the coin on the commandline.

I tried setting a "password' in commandline as suggested above, but that doesn't make a difference.  Over the past few days, I've also tried as many other options as I can.  It appears that the issue is it's connecting on RPC for get_work, but there's still a watchdog for a Stratum thread - but since we're not using Stratum, it sees no activity and bombs out.

See here - you can see that the coin is properly set, has connected to geth successfully, and has started mining, but at 51s, it kills itself because of the stratum thread.

In a command line see if geth is truly set to mine:

geth --rpc --rpcapi eth --rpcaddr IPADDR --rpcport YOURPORT --mine --miner.etherbase console


Ok so it is supposed to be supported protocal so try one of these 3 things:

ADD -G see if it will trigger the getwork method.

Claymore command:
-mode 1

Phoenix command:
-gwtime 200 (Recheck period for Solo/GetWork mining default: 200 ms)

see if any of these help.

Thanks, but still no.

Geth is truly ready to mine.  I'm using ethminer against it and successfully mining blocks.  In fact, PhoenixMiner starts mining with it before it craps out due to the stratum thread error - so it's not an issue with being able to get work with eth_getwork (refer to log posted above)

Had previously tried -gwtime - no change

-G is invalid option for PhoenixMiner

-mode 1 - no change

PhoenixMiner is not an option currently.

is geth running on same machine?

can you add -v 3 to the command line its for more verbose output.


geth is on a different machine.

-v only prints version and exits - doesn't enable verbose.  -log 2 is supposed to enable debug messages, but doesn't really appear any different.  Here's a full log with -log 2

So same thing here - why is it monitoring a stratum thread and rebooting because of it if we are not using stratum.  Seems like a pretty clear bug to me.

Now if there is a hidden trick for enabling Stratum in geth, I'd love to hear it.  Of if there's a quick & easy way to have a proxy that talks rpc to geth and then talks stratum to miner - without having to setup a whole pool software for myself.  That would be fine, but there still appears to be a bug in PhoenixMiner's support for local rpc.
