Pool connection only working sporadically

[Froghut]

The miner often cannot connect to the pool with the following error message:

Connecting to pool.aeon.semipool.com:22204 ... done!
Mining pools failed to respond
Login fails: {"method":"login","params":{"login":"XXX","pass":"XXX","rigid":"","agent":"vulkan XMR miner"},"id":1}

Error: 10038
setsockopt error
Mining pool connection lost.... will retry in 10 seconds

It does manage to connect sometimes, and once connected works well until it connects to the dev pool and then tries to reconnect to the normal pool again, when the error occurs again most of the time.

yes still broken on 0.4.1 release

Mining pool connection lost.... will retry in 10 seconds Driver API version 1.1.119 try to reconnect to mining pool Connecting to fastpool.xyz:10067 ... done! Mining pools failed to respond Login fails: {"method":"login","params":{"login":"walletaddress","pass":"Vulkan","rigid":"","agent":"vulkan XMR miner"},"id":1} Error: 10038 setsockopt error

another pool:

Mining pool connection lost.... will retry in 10 seconds Driver API version 1.1.119 try to reconnect to mining pool Connecting to k12.mine.zergpool.com:4459 ... done! Mining pools failed to respond Login fails: {"method":"login","params":{"login":"ltcaddress","pass":"c=LTC,mc=AEON,sd=1000000","rigid":"","agent":"vulkan XMR miner"},"id":1} Error: 10038 setsockopt error

Using Nvidia card with latest drivers 441.66

I missed that point: "The socket() function on Windows returns INVALID_SOCKET (which is (SOCKET)(~0)) on error, while other platforms return (int)-1 instead."

If you can compile, can you change code in network.cpp to // Create socket int soc = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); if (soc == INVALID_SOCKET && index == 0) { exitOnError("Can't create socket"); return false; }

You might also try to add a usleep(1000) at the end of the function lookForPool() to see if the error might be that the server is taking time to open the connection. (I don't have a Windows platform now to chek it). It has nothing to do with AMD/Nvidia. Pure network issue.

I could not get to compile on windows or linux last time I tried, failed at 10% or so.

Let me try here if I get a chance.

[BigslimVdub]

Can’t get to build on windows however I am able to connect just fine with only cpu use with all 3 release versions of miner. As soon as I use gpu (nvidia) the miner crashes when it connects.

Compile fails..... Results of fail due to not finding some files...
