While attempting to convert my older Maxwell (2GB) rig from zcash to btg, i’m getting a segfault with miniZ:

Hi,
thank you for leaving feedback.
I is a bit late here but could you try the following and report back? We’ll try to get you and answer asap.
1. Run nvidia-smi.
2. Could you run miniZ with each que GPU separately? Or, at least separately for the GTX 750 Ti, and GTX 960?
./miniZ --url robertcnelson.m4a77d@btg.suprnova.cc:8866 --cuda-devices 0then
./miniZ --url robertcnelson.m4a77d@btg.suprnova.cc:8866 --cuda-devices 2and report if you get the same error?
Although nvidia-ml doesn’t seem to be your main problem, it still needs to be solved.
Thank you. Cheers.

No more no progress
Hi PARTS, do you have enough memory available for those 13 GPUs? You can try to increase the pagefile and see if it helps. Also, can you run the miniZ with less GPUs? This may help understand what is happening.
Thank you for the feedback.
Cheers
Hi there!
Is there a ‘proper’ API available? Preferrably Ccminer compatible 🙂
Thanks
UG
Hi UselessGuru,
Thanks for your message. We have some kind of “standard” json api, which is fully compatible with the EWBF miner.
Example (Linux):
curl --silent rig2:20000 -X '{"id":"0", "method":"getstat"}'returns:
{"id":0, "method":"getstat", "error":null, "start_time":1544548916, "current_server":"zhash.eu.nicehash.com:3369", "server_latency":62.4, "available_servers":1, "server_status":1, "result":[{"gpuid":0, "cudaid":0, "busid":"busid", "name":"GeForce GTX 1050", "gpu_status":2, "solver":-1, "temperature":66, "gpu_fan_speed":35, "gpu_power_usage":75.0, "gpu_clock_core_max":1695, "gpu_clock_memory":3504, "speed_sps":16.1, "accepted_shares":23, "rejected_shares":0, "start_time":1544548916},{"gpuid":1, "cudaid":1, "busid":"busid", "name":"GeForce GTX 1050 Ti", "gpu_status":2, "solver":-1, "temperature":71, "gpu_fan_speed":38, "gpu_power_usage":75.0, "gpu_clock_core_max":1594, "gpu_clock_memory":3504, "speed_sps":18.6, "accepted_shares":22, "rejected_shares":0, "start_time":1544548916},{"gpuid":2, "cudaid":2, "busid":"busid", "name":"GeForce GTX 1070 Ti", "gpu_status":2, "solver":-1, "temperature":69, "gpu_fan_speed":49, "gpu_power_usage":172.1, "gpu_clock_core_max":1759, "gpu_clock_memory":3802, "speed_sps":59.0, "accepted_shares":69, "rejected_shares":0, "start_time":1544548916}]}Let us know if you need further help.

Thank you!
Could you give me an example for PowerShell (I am a Windows guy)?
I googled to no avail…
Hi UselessGuru,
you can try this PowerShell script
$server = "localhost"
$port = 20000
$Message = '{"id":"0", "method":"getstat"}'
$Client = $Null
$Client = New-Object System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient $server, $port
$Writer = New-Object System.IO.StreamWriter $Client.GetStream()
$Reader = New-Object System.IO.StreamReader $Client.GetStream()
$client.SendTimeout = 10000
$client.ReceiveTimeout = 10000
$Writer.AutoFlush = $true
$Writer.WriteLine($Message)
$Request = $Reader.ReadLine()
$Data = $Request | ConvertFrom-Json
Write-Host $Data
Write-Host $Data.result
Returns:
@{id=0; method=getstat; error=; start_time=1546129190; current_server=zhash.eu.nicehash.com:3369; server_latency=73.8; available_servers=-2; server_status=1; result=System.Object[]}@{gpuid=0; cudaid=0; busid=busid; name=GeForce GTX 1060 3GB; gpu_status=2; solver=-1; temperature=71; gpu_fan_speed=43; gpu_power_usage=117.2; gpu_clock_core_max=1771; gpu_clock_memory=3802; speed_sps=33.1; accepted_shares=66; rejected_shares=1; start_time=1546129190}

Thank you – works like a charm!
I’ve added you miner to MultiPoolMiner (www.multipoolminer.io)
Thanks! That is great.
Good luck with your nice project!
Keep getting cuda devices not found error. What am I doing wrong:
Here is a copy of my .sh file. I am running Bionic Beaver Ubuntu:
!bin/bash
./miniZ –url Ge31GZvBuMje6zhiKu6dNQaBbGPg9sTd4b.Miner2@us-btg.2miners.com:4040 –log –gpu-line 0 1 2 3 4
Hi Mathew,
it seems you are missing the option that is required to specify the devices
-cdor--cuda-devices(before the device(s) number). Try the following:!bin/bash./miniZ --url Ge31GZvBuMje6zhiKu6dNQaBbGPg9sTd4b.Miner2@us-btg.2miners.com:4040 --log --gpu-line -cd 0 1 2 3 4
For other usage information and examples check https://miniz.ch/usage/
Let us know how it goes.
Cheers
Thank you, that fixed the original problem, awesome, but now the miner fires up and begins to mine but then hangs/freezes/crashes whatever term you prefer and I have to kill power and restart.
Using assorted nvidia cards, eleven of them, 1070, 1070ti and 1080. Updated drivers to 410 cuda version 10.0
Thanks again. Any help greatly appreciated!
Matteo
Hi Matteo,
we are sorry about this.
On a first approach this may be related with the OC settings of the cards, if you did some OC. If so, do you have this issue with stock settings too?
If the previous does not apply, could you let us know if the problem also exists with v1.0h? Maybe this can help us figure out what’s going on.
Cheers
Hello miniZ,
Yes, I run an OC script before I start the miner, should I not do that?
I am now traveling for the week but feel free to communicate any other ideas. I really like your miniZ Miner from what I can see and am excited to give it a try.
Thank you for your help, greatly appreciated
Okay, so I tried without running the OC script and it still froze up.
Any other thoughts on what could be causing the problem?
Thank You for any help, greatly appreciated….
Hi Matthew,
Thank you for the feedback!
We’ve just released a new miniZ version v1.0j.
Try this new version, and let us know how did it go.
Try also cuda 8.0 variant.
Cheers
This is just insane why this miner continues to freeze.
Can we please communicate via email?
Hi Matthew,
we are sorry about the persistent freeze.
We have just contacted you.
Cheers
