[Bug] Switch pool not working #27

Closed mariogrip closed 10 years ago

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

I have tried to find the problem, seems like it something with bfgminer... It cannot send "switchpool" command to bfgminer. I don't know if it is a permission problem or luke-jr have edit something in the api, btw that's why the donate drops.

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

I had not noticed.. that is an annoying issue especial since we just pushed out that feature.

It is not consistent though, immediately after rebooting it will switch fine. It is only after some time that it will no longer switch the pool.

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

Further findings, bfgminer will let you switchpool once and then your locked. I will asked Luke for help.

Humm, readme.rpc at luke-jr's github it says

switchpool|N The Msg includes the pool URL Msg=string Message matching the Code value N

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

Are you reading from;-

https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README.RPC

what I see is;-

switchpool|N (*) none There is no reply section just the STATUS section stating the results of switching pool N to the highest priority (the pool is also enabled) The Msg includes the pool URL

and that is the same as the cgminer api.

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

Ah, when i try to send switchpool command i get Access denied to 'switchpool' command

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

Do you have;-

"api-allow": "W:127.0.0.1",

In your miner.conf file?

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

in miner.conf? Humm, that is not added automatically.

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

Add this to f_pools_save.php then it will work
$data['api-allow'] = "127.0.0.1"; $data['api-listen'] = true; $data['api-allow'] = "W:127.0.0.1";

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

miner.conf is shipped with with the setting.

Are you saying;

$data['api-allow'] = "127.0.0.1"; $data['api-listen'] = true; $data['api-allow'] = "W:127.0.0.1";

Fixes the problem?

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

yeah, I have tested it.

Now if i delete miner.conf, it will create a new one

MineForeman commented 10 years ago

Sorry, do you mean it fixes the bfgminer problem?

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

Yeah, I send a pull request, that is working for me.

mariogrip commented 10 years ago

It looks like this bug is solved, but we got another problem, i got a report that the miner is not changing to Donate pool.
