Hello all. I've been using cudaminer for my 750tis but wanted to give JPC a try so this is my first time using ccminer. I've done a good bit of reading on this forum and the commands look close enough to cudaminer that I should be able to figure it out but I can't quite get it to work properly and definitely need some help at this point.
Basically, the .bat file seems to run fine except it only gives me a new "Stratum detected new block" every minute or so. No hash information, no hash acceptance confirmation. I checked the dashboard on miningpoolhub.com and there's definitely no shares being counted.
I'm using the v0.7 release from a few days ago. Here's my .bat file (my username and such is filled in properly in the real one):
ccminer50.exe -a jackpot -d 0 -o stratum+tcp://us-east1.jackpotcoin.miningpoolhub.com:20484 -O username.worker:password
Any ideas?
if you get stratum detected new block, I'd say you are running cgminer not ccminer (or I missed an option)
Unfortunately it's nothing that obvious as I'm definitely using ccMiner v0.7, but I checked anyways. However, your comment did make me compare how they each start up and I can say that they basically start the same.
After starting either program they both say "Stratum detected new block" but cudaminer would immediately initialize GPU #0 and go on from there. The ccMiner program just waits about a minute and throws out the same "Stratum detected new block," doing so endlessly.
Is there some other command I need to apply to get ccMiner to initialize my GPU?
I really don't have anything like that from ccminer...
it says:
1miner threads started... etc...
Starting stratum on stratum...etc... and it start hashing (but I am using -q).
In cgminer "stratum detected new block" just means a block has been found somewhere on the network and the miner is trying to solve the new one...
edit: ok, if cudaminer doesn't start, try to restart.
Which card are you using/ which version of cc/cuda are you using ?
What is happening on gpu usage/ core clock etc... when you start the miner ?
