gminer all algorithms do not show right

[MaynardMiner]

Okay. I will go the through the API, and see what is going on, but its weird since I don't immediately reproduce. The hashrates seem fine for me.

[MaynardMiner]

So you are stating:

gminer hashrates are off for you. bminer ethash is off for you.

Those are the two I will look at.

[MaynardMiner]

@petrovsky34 Just so I know-

When you run benchmark miner gminer-1 command, and benchmark miner again- Does it continue to produce bad hashrates?

[MaynardMiner]

Thank you for the feedback btw. It's hard to troubleshoot effectively 4 different OS's/ versions worth of potential issues.

[MaynardMiner]

For the record, I had three other windows users show me hashrates, and it was correct for them. I am not saying your crazy, because from photos your are not, just this isn't easy to find issue.

[petrovsky34]

I deleted gminer

[petrovsky34]

just run swarm gminer benchmark on your computer

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

[MaynardMiner]

May I see your args? I would like to try to use your settings, to try to reproduce.

[MaynardMiner]

Okay, I'm looking at it.

For the record, you could probably just cut out the algos you don't want to mine from .\config\pools\pool-algos.json instead of adding all the algos there. May make life easier, and avoid dealing with typos.

[petrovsky34]

ok

[petrovsky34]

thanks

The background agent is what gathers the stats, does it look incorrect as well?

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

The background agent correctly shows!

[MaynardMiner]

So the background agent is recording the right stats it seems, but for some reason when SWARM goes to read, it- Is pulling incorrect value.

Swarm saves the Hashrate to a debug file:

.\build\txt\NVIDIA1-Hash.txt

Does that value change correctly?

[MaynardMiner]

Also, you are not running out disk space, right?

[petrovsky34]

yes correctly shows! NVIDIA1-Hash.txt

[MaynardMiner]

So when it pulls from that file, some how the figure it getting messed up. This is a very weird read-write parsing issue. I'm going to see what I can do. But now I know what to look at. thx

[petrovsky34]

ok

[petrovsky34]

miniz correctly shows

[petrovsky34]

[petrovsky34]

[MaynardMiner]

It it written to file with a "," instead of a "." ?

The hashrate I mean

[petrovsky34]

no

[petrovsky34]

that this means red written

[MaynardMiner]

http://nist.time.gov/actualtime.cgi Does that link work for you?

I think the NIST may be a timedate language issue. I will look into it.

Line 643 is systeminfo (Last photo)

I am looking for "Total Physical Memory", does it not print out in english? That may be why that is failing.

You can open cmd and type systeminfo, and see what language it is printed in.

[petrovsky34]

[MaynardMiner]

That's why, its not in english. lol

I will see if there is a way to force it to output as english, so I can parse.

[petrovsky34]

I from Russia Russian language

[MaynardMiner]

Yeah. I noticed.

There must be a way I can temporarily change the language of output for developing purposes, so I can parse non-english windows commands. It's something I am not familiar with, but will research ASAP.

[petrovsky34]

ok

windows 8 swarm does not work ???

[MaynardMiner]

.\build\powershell\hashrates.ps1 At line 99, function Get Hashrates

function Get-HashRate {
    param(
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [String]$Type,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)]
        [String]$API,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)]
        [Int]$Port
    )

        $HashFile = Get-Content ".\build\txt\$Type-hash.txt"
        [Double]$HashFile
}

Try changing

[Double]$HashFile

to

[Decimal]$HashFile

See if that corrects the value.

You can open with wordpad and change it.

[petrovsky34]

ok

[petrovsky34]

no

gminer1 150hs gminer2 69hs must be

[MaynardMiner]

Can I see the contents of NVIDIA1-hash.txt. It should just be a number.

But I want to play with the pwsh culture, and see if I can make it fail.

[petrovsky34]

[MaynardMiner]

PS C:\Users\Mayna> $A = "64,9" PS C:\Users\Mayna> $A|Set-Content "test.txt" PS C:\Users\Mayna> $B = Get-Content "test.txt" PS C:\Users\Mayna> [Double]$B 649

Apparently Powershell can't handle the ","

I will have a fix next release (probably tonight).

[petrovsky34]

ok well I will be looking forward to it)))

[petrovsky34]

windows 8 swarm does not work ???

[MaynardMiner]

Since you know how- you can try this:

function Get-HashRate {
    param(
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
        [String]$Type,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)]
        [String]$API,
        [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)]
        [Int]$Port
    )

        $HashFile = Get-Content ".\build\txt\$Type-hash.txt"
        $HashFile = $HashFile -replace ",","."
        [decimal]$HashFile
}
