Perhaps

chmod 755 cgminer

would help?

Can you try running cgminer manually from the command line?

Thanks, this solved the permissions issue, and the new cgminer is running.

Cheers

That's just the installed package reference but you've overwritten the binary. If you are on a remote machine, from another copy of cgminer you can do the following command:
Where 192.168.1.99 is the S3.

Or on the S3 itself run

I have 4.6 running and according to TOP it is hashing.

But M's Ant monitor does not talk to it any more.

according to miner status it web page it is hashing fine also.

maybe I'll waiting until M gets the ant monitor updted to the 4.6 API?

I can't live without Ant Monitor.

Bitmain used a, um, hacked version of cgminer.  The API output isn't even close to accurate.  That's why one of the later versions of the firmware broke M's Ant Monitor, as the output from the API was actually malformed (incorrect) JSON.  I had to compensate for it in my code for it to work again.

Therefore it's not a surprise that the proper API from 4.6 doesn't work.  I'll see if I can put it on my S3 in a manner that I can go back.  I think I can manage that.

Actually I used their git master tree driver specifically to try and not break their luci web which shouldn't have changed their API output too much from what they expect though it needed a few basic fixes. A proper merge and rewrite would likely break all their interfaces and this binary I posted was just as a service to provide the bugfixes in later versions, especially for the protection against the redirect attack. I don't anticipate I'll be doing the proper rewrite, but Kano probably will when we free him up from pool code work.

ANTMINER S3 Wireless configuration.

My B7 S3 is able to detect my wireless router without having the antenna mod discussed above. Has that been the case with the earlier versions?

Given the large number of thumbs on my two hands, it would be nice if I did not have to do the mod.

TIA

yeah I switch Ant MOnitor to use Web and is looking nice now.  I'll do the other 11 now.

Could someone sticky that post and host the file long term for the others that might want to upgrade?  Seems simple enough as I doubt Bitmain would do it any time soon...

Anyone see any reason not to do this?

I also noticed  the load average is way lower on the CPU now that it was.  was always above 2 before.  now hovers around 1.2.  any additional benefit to these devices to run with lower/higher loads?

Still early days since I updated my S3 with the latest cgminer (3 hrs+) but I have noticed an improvement in the pool-side reported hashrate AND I suspect a reduced DiffR. This is on top of a faster UI (which I attribute to the lower load average).

Just a question, would this cgminer run on an S1 (like to earlier Kano cgminer)?
