Folks

I am trying to set up a bitcoind + pushpoold running on an Amazon EC2. No problems on bitcoind side, but I really don't know what's happening on the pushpoold side. Compilation was smooth, but I can't manage to run it.

My config file:

Code:

{
# network ports
"listen" : [
# binary protocol (default), port 8342
{ "port" : 8342 },

# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8341
{ "port" : 8347, "protocol" : "http-json" },

# HTTP JSON-RPC protocol, port 8344,
#proxy is most likely your external ip address if your running a public pool | Public pools WON'T have the following ip addresses: (10.0.0.1, 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.100, or 192.168.254.254,etc,etc)
# requests to us | "proxy" should be set to your ip address that people will connect through
{ "port" : 8344, "protocol" : "http-json",
"proxy" : "127.0.0.1" },

# binary protocol, localhost-only port 8338
# host is most likely your localhost address
{ "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 8338, "protocol" : "binary" }
],

# database settings
"database" : {
"engine" : "mysql",

"host" : "localhost",

"port" : 3306,

#database name
"name" : "pushpool",
#database username
"username" : "mysqlusername",
#database password
"password" : "mysqlpass",
#enable sharelog | to insert share data or sometimes known as "work"
"sharelog" : true,
"stmt.pwdb":"SELECT password FROM pool_worker WHERE username = ?",

"stmt.sharelog":"INSERT INTO shares (rem_host, username, our_result, upstream_result, reason, solution) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"

},

#uncoment this when you want to use memcached (Recommended for servers over 1.5gb of ram)
# cache settings
#"memcached" : {
# "servers" : [
# { "host" : "127.0.0.1", "port" : 11211 }
# ]
#},

"pid" : "/tmp/pushpoold.pid",

# overrides local hostname detection
"forcehost" : "localhost.localdomain",

"log.requests" : "/tmp/request.log",
"log.shares" : "/tmp/shares.log",

# the server assumes longpolling (w/ SIGUSR1 called for each blk)
"longpoll.disable" : false,

# length of time to cache username/password credentials, in seconds
"auth.cred_cache.expire" : 75,

# RPC settings
#Bitcoind Protocal settings
#Host were bitcoind can be found on the network
"rpc.url" : "http://127.0.0.1:8332/",
#Username & password to connect to bitcoind
"rpc.user" : "user",
"rpc.pass" : "mypassword",

# rewrite returned 'target' to difficulty-1?
"rpc.target.rewrite" : true
}

I'm trying to run pushpoold with this command:

Code:

# pushpoold -c /usr/local/etc/pushpool.json --debug=2 -F -E
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.684078] Debug output enabled
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.684530] Forcing local hostname to localhost.localdomain
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.698690] Listening on host :: port 8342
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.698765] Listening on host :: port 8347
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.698819] Listening on host :: port 8344
[2011-06-19 15:49:1.698870] Listening on host 127.0.0.1 port 8338

Pushpoold simply quits. No messages, no further notice. This is pushpoold-0.5. I have tried a number of different branches as well as from the latest Github official sources. Same results.

Any help is much much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
