[ANN] Candypool.net 0% fee PPLNS Primecoin pool

Hi Trey,

this is dependent on the cpu you are using.

  • T16v2 is the most generic so it should work for everyone
  • T16v2-AVX is compiled with the AVX ( Advanced Vector Extensions ) instruction set. If you use this one and you cpu does not support it, the miner will crash.
  • T16v2-XP - afaik this should be something specific for amd cpus

Is it possible to mine WITH VPS too?

Sure, just make sure to use the miner given in the howto section.

Hi,

just to let you know - we finally found our first block :slight_smile:

why does it say im connected to ypool.net?

my commandline is

jhPrimeminer-T17.exe -o http://candypool.net:10034 -u coolwaters.slave -p 123 -m 31 -m2 37 -m3 43 -m4 47

pause

Funny,

Aerocloud removed the Hostoption on all of his builds and set ypool to default.

Seems like they do not like candypool that much :slight_smile:

You can download the older client without the branding here:

thanks im mine candypool now. :slight_smile:

Welcome :slight_smile:

iv been searching around but couldnt find the answer…but
how can you calculate chains per day?
all i really see is val/h.

There is no chains per day when you pool mine.
All you get is how much value you submitted per hour.

Thanks Fuzzy for making this sticky !

No problem, sorry been having internet issues… so not done sooner and my mining is limited atm :frowning: so testing ur pool not able to do so yet but i will give it a shot
gtz on finding your first block btw :slight_smile:

Hello, first id like to great work on the new pool im mining with it though most shares found are going stale for unknown reason. Any advice? \I have run it on two different win7 PCs with different processors to make sure its not the PCs.

Second, it seems that miners other two .exe extentions do not work with candypool.net. on the jh…T16v2.exe seem to accept candypool url. the AVX.exe and XP.exe never accept it and run by default and connect to ypool.

Cheers!!

Hi,

can you post your miner parameters ?

Regarding the miner software, i’ll publish a special one for candypool soon ;

well the parameter are same as in the bat file. only thing changed was as follows:

jhprimeminer-T16v2-XP.exe -o candypool.net:10034 -u xxx - p xxx -m 31 -m2 37 -m3 43 -m4 47

and jhprimeminer-T16v2-AVX.exe with the above url and other stuff.

One questiuon i would like to ask, when i run this on intel based PCs the PC does not run slow or freeze momentarily at different intervals. but my AMD based cpu does. Im not sure what is the cause.

Also as mentioned before, im getting a lot of stale shares.

Sorry to keep bugging you people for help but…
I followed the instructions…
But when I try to launch jhminer with this…

jhPrimeminer-T17-AVX.exe -o http://candypool.net:10034 -u PrimePhilo.PrimePhilo -p xxxx -t 3

I get refused as invalid username or password.
which is not so I checked

What am I missing or is there another problem?

Philo,

You will have to use the older version of client. The link was posted in the following by candypool:

Also, one more thing to note. use the following command: jhprimeminer-T16v2.exe -o candypool.net:10034 -u (your worker name) -p (your worker password) -m 31 -m2 37 -m3 43 -m4 47

The AVX.exe and XP.exe extensions for some reason dont work with candypool at this time.

Hope that helps.

Cheers!!

Philio,

as stated by mohammadnaeem you need to use the older client wich is available for download on the website.

The AVX.exe and XP.exe extensions for some reason dont work with candypool at this time.
Does your CPU support the AVX instruction set ?
One questiuon i would like to ask, when i run this on intel based PCs the PC does not run slow or freeze momentarily at different intervals. but my AMD based cpu does. Im not sure what is the cause.
Does it also happen when you use the default miner ( not the xp and not the AVX one ) ?
