Killbyte - wondered if you'd be interested in helping me get all this up and running for some BTC - I want to setup a merged mining pool with Doge, Ltc, Sys, 42 and Pot
I have it working and finding blocks for POT and SYS. LTC is running, but I do not have enough hash to solve a LTC block. DOGE is waiting for the AUXPoW block but works on testnet. My issue is when I find a block, the stratum throws an error and crashes. I've been working on it in my spare time, as I currently have a commissioned project taking up time. Payouts do not currently work, but I only have me and a friend mining, so I just manually pay her. :) You can check it out at http://bemining.net if you like.
How did you guys get your private keys setup? https://github.com/KillerByte/node-merged-pool/issues/4
Private key? Use addie.cc for the username for miners and add the addresses to that profile. I'm not sure what private keys you are talking about...For the pools/*coin.json, setup the local wallet address in the file.

you must have modified from the demo some — in the config file it requires one single address for generating coins, shared across all coins... How did you share a private key across multiple coins?
It's a public key. I generated it from my NOMP pool. Try visiting http://judge.bemining.net/mining_key and you can download the standalone version.

gotcha, i'm familiar with nomp, have an instance running locally... had wondered about that.. thanks for the input... BTW whats with waiting for the AUXPow block (doge), shouldn't merged mining just work now?
No, they aren't to the block that signals the AUXPoW yet.

sigwo — i'm confused, so i tried adding the mining private address as the primary coin payout address — server is saying address is invalid — how do I add the addresses for all the merged coins then?
I'm live now.., we'll see about the crash you mentioned.
How are you merge mining potcoin?? Api throwing an error for getauxblock
what are you doing to keep the process running after it crashes on successful block? cron?

I haven't fixed the block crash or the restart. I'm monitoring the hashrate every so often. As I said, it is an experimental pool now. I'm actually moving it to a different server so I can restart my big NOMP instance and not have it effect testing.
nothing right now. LOL I see in the logs where it errors, so I'm trying to fix it rather than band-aid it.

i will try to dig in later.. i was using node forever to keep it persistent, but wasn't getting any blocks for hours, and wondered if something was going wrong somewhere down the line... Hard to tell.
I think the stratum dies, not the server and that's why forever or a cron won't work. I ran just the barebones node-merged-pool (not portal) and it crashes after finding a block. It's not the portal, but the stratum that has an error.
And the payouts are a whole different ballgame. Really wishing the creator would stop by :-)

seems like too many problme here to even attempt implementing - however I have one question:
you wrote: You can merge mine any scrypt coin with SYS.
is this true? I thought one certain coins could be merged mined - not "any' coin as your state (at least with sys) which is kind of tanking right now.
As long as the difficulty is higher than the aux coin (SYS, in this case), yes. Any scrypt coin. LTC is the preferred choice because the diff is so high on LTC.

But even then you can. I am merge mining POT/SYS, RBY/SYS, and VIA/SYS right now. I have found several POT blocks, which is a lower diff coin than SYS. I just won't (shouldn't) find any SYS blocks right now.

POT, RBY, and VIA

what do you have as a Primary coin?

so - you are just merge mining two coins and have been using either POT, RBY or VIA as your primary coin?
Yes. There are very few coins that can be the secondary coin. DOGE is the biggest that will be merge-able when they get to block 371337.

so - let me get this right - if I have POT, SYS, RBY, VIA or 42 as a primary - I can mine any other scrypt coin as a secondary?
No. The primary coin is not the merge mineable coin. doge / sys / taco / peseta / huntercoin(broken) / united scrypt coin / umbrella / Monocle / Parrallax are the merge mineable coins that are the SECONDARY coins. ANY scrypt coin can be the MAIN coin. It is only beneficial (attempting to solve blocks on both chains) IF the MAIN coin has a HIGHER difficulty than the SECONDARY coin.
hi guys,
did you know how to configure pool.json to mine on two or more AuxPow Coins?
Doesn't work afaik.

Hi sigwo,
do you mean two or more AuxPOW coins do not work together or is not possible to mine more AuxPow Coins with this stratum?
It works using more than one AUXPoW coin together, just not with this software.

Hi sigwo,
Thanks a lot for your help! can you suggest a good software for mining more than one AuxPOW coins?
