[MOON] RPC-connection #105

coinflow · 2017-12-18T14:25:55Z

Hi Rav3nPL,

could I ask you to help Mooncoin again with tuning p2pool-rav according to the new wallet/client? That would be great.

The new wallet ( --> https://github.com/mooncoincore/wallet ) was compiled and installed alongside a freshly cloned p2pool-rav. But obviously an RPC-call is not possible.

I have found this one: litecoin-project/litecoin#371 where the user also has problems with the latest Litecoin-wallet to make it possible to work together with a p2pool-code. Since the newest Mooncoin-wallet is based on the latest Litecoin (as far as I know), could it be, that the linked solution would work in your p2pool-version for Mooncoin, too? See here: https://github.com/ilsawa/p2pool-ltc/commit/2af67a8cc7d0c498479f080f0652e02c4c826497

Since I don't know what the correct value for the Mooncoin-genesis-block would be, could you test that and possibly change the relevant passages in your pool-script to be correct? That would be really nice.

Notice: The new dev has changed back to the "official" naming conventions, meaning, that the paths that the Mooncoin-wallet creates, are with small letters again. Maybe this is of help for your updates of the code.

Thank you very much.

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-18T14:49:51Z

RPC command "help" is no longer throwing back required string.
I`ll try t change it to check for genesis block hash (like in BTC some time ago).

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-18T15:29:40Z

try 9a00696

coinflow · 2017-12-18T16:02:14Z

Just cloned again freshly. Then starting p2pool it gives me:
...
yield helper.check_genesis_block(bitcoind, 'bd687cbbac4842724d4b1dfd2e1a6ce35d765db05635b3ebd3810ba66ac5aee9')))
^

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-18T16:03:31Z

I`ll check it later, probably missing comma or smth. 2017-12-18 17:02 GMT+01:00 coinflow <[email protected]>:

coinflow · 2017-12-18T17:07:33Z

This seems to work:

RPC_CHECK = defer.inlineCallbacks(lambda bitcoind: defer.returnValue(
(yield helper.check_genesis_block(bitcoind, 'bd687cbbac4842724d4b1dfd2e1a6ce35d765db05635b3ebd3810ba66ac5aee9'))
))
SUBSIDY_FUNC = lambda height: 2000000*100000000

So the problem was obviously in number and position of the brackets.

Could you consolidate the networks-files for Mooncoin?
In ../p2pool/bitcoin/networks there are Mooncoin.py and mooncoin.py (and *.pyc)
Also both versions in ../p2pool/networks

So it would be great to have this consolidated based on mooncoin.py, I assume?

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-18T17:41:02Z

Changed brackets c78d7f2
Two Mooncoin.py are necessary, this is how p2pool is build.
One is for daemon data, second to pool data.

coinflow · 2017-12-18T17:46:10Z

But not one with capital M and one with small m, right?

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-18T18:13:17Z

Done.
It was because at some point I do commit from Windoze, it is case-insensitive ;]

coinflow · 2017-12-18T18:32:15Z

Great! Thanks.

gblass · 2017-12-22T02:16:48Z

I tried using the new mooncoin.py and recomplied but I am getting crazy DOA shares, and my miner is showing that I found 70,000 Blocks, and then my time to block is showing 14038880326535135797651516507108282486575107470786560.0 years
Something isn't working, any thoughts?

gblass · 2017-12-27T03:51:59Z

still not working, and I have a lot of people that would like to use or create Mooncoin Nodes. Can we do some testing?

coinflow · 2017-12-27T07:53:59Z

Hi gblass,

do you mean the miner found 70000 blocks, or shares? A very high rate of DOA-shares at the beginning is normal. That should level out over time. At least here it is.

Have you opened the relevant ports (see the code), so that your node can connect with others and get in sync?

The time to block is indeed strange, but I assumed, that is normal, if the sharechain is new/reset and the first block not found already ...??

Rav3nPL? What are your thoughts? Could you set up a test node and connect to the Mooncoin P2Pool, in order to check whether everything runs correctly?

coinflow · 2017-12-27T08:36:28Z

Maybe the same problem like here: #106 ?

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-27T10:16:49Z

I'll try to run mooncoin node (core and p2pool) today. Will see. 27.12.2017 9:36 AM "coinflow" <[email protected]> napisał(a):

@Rav3nPL Hi, I'm Vassilis the new official mooncoin dev. if you need any help I'm here! My email also is [email protected]!

mooncoincore · 2017-12-27T21:35:38Z

if you are with just a software miner everything is fine.. if you connect with antminer(support Scrypt) for example (500MH/s) in few secs.. in miner status page you got few thousands "Found Blocks".
@coinflow do you get any real blocks as pool?

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-27T21:36:59Z

Just updated repo, It is working on my side, connected to 3 P2Pool peers, reorganized sharechain.
Try pull and restart pool and miners.
At start it WILL throw wazillion DOA shares, until it adjust diff to miner.

I just connected my antminer to test. Still getting tons of found block son the miner.

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-27T21:48:14Z

Miner is probably interpreting accepted shares as blocks found.
Or maybe something in diff reporting on pool side.

Block ETA is odd, need look into current P2Pool LTC code, maybe I`m missing something.

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-27T22:05:56Z

Well, I`m not 100% sure but this code is basing on older P2Pool, it is not prepared for SegWit and it can produce invalid blocks...
We need hit at least one block to verify that, probably I need to move to new P2Pool code base that supports SegWit.

coinflow · 2017-12-28T01:00:36Z

How can we see, whether we found an invalid block?

coinflow · 2017-12-28T01:08:35Z

@coinflow do you get any real blocks as pool?

Not with the new wallet yet. With the older ones we found a lot of blocks. The last block was this one: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/moon/block.dws?1151546.htm
See here for further stats of P2Pool-blocks: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/moon/extraction.dws?1.htm

gblass · 2017-12-28T02:16:45Z

I can confirm with @coinflow we used to get blocks often, nothing since use of the new wallet.

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-28T16:08:09Z

If no one mine coin I can't resolve anything.
My node will be up few more days.
If no one use this P2Pool I'll kill it.

gblass · 2017-12-28T17:18:42Z

Do you want me to reconnect? I dont mind, but I have ran this one on my own node for almost 24 hours and no change. Please let me know

Hopefully some miners will find the way to your node, Rav3nPL.

i have pointed ny antminer to your pool again.

coinflow · 2017-12-29T12:32:01Z

Hi Rav3n,
did you find the time to look at the code again?

mooncoincore · 2017-12-30T15:57:42Z

@Rav3nPL @coinflow @gblass I found the problem.. is in the wallet code retarget function. I'm trying to fix it now..

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-31T02:40:24Z

If retarget is broken wallet should not sync nor accept blocks from "good" nodes. RU sure it is a issue? 30.12.2017 4:57 PM "MoonCoinCore" <[email protected]> napisał(a):

mooncoincore · 2017-12-31T02:51:49Z

I have gave the code for test.. if you want to test it the "fixed" code is in https://github.com/mooncoincore/wallet .
The retarget was not broken.. the previous dev copy paste the old code to new without set the right variable type(cbignum need to be now arith_uint256.. if i remember right)..
so the target was not broken but in retarget function the return value of target was very odd because wasn't the all number!
It took me 2 weeks to dig in 3nd person code to found out that!
Now returns a "logical" difficulty and ETA.

gblass · 2017-12-31T02:53:29Z

We did it!! Thanks everyone:

mooncoincore · 2017-12-31T02:55:54Z

@Rav3nPL please give me your btc address to send you a small donation for your help!
Also we are going for segwit.. so if you support with your pool soft segwit will be amazing!

Thank you @coinflow @Rav3nPL @mooncoincore

Rav3nPL · 2017-12-31T21:25:59Z

@mooncoincore fix in wallet also fixed block ETA display in pool.
See http://rav3n.dtdns.net:9664/
Expected time to block | 0.177 hours

For segwit support I need move all my patches to new codebase, because current is bit obsoloete (like 2 versions behind). It is still working fine for non-segwit coins.

gblass · 2018-01-03T18:14:38Z

Can we increase the total work per block from 3000 to something larger? THere are a lot of people interested in Mining MoonCoin now, but sometimes they get no shares because they get taken from very large Pools.

Rav3nPL · 2018-01-03T20:02:04Z

It is regulated in another way.
P2Pool can raise share diff for large miners.
BUT mining witch so low power can lead to dust-like payouts, that can be high-fee when spending.
Ifs1 is intrested in mining, he should do it 24/7, and if we have share every 2 days he will be paid every 2 days - in amount proportional to pool speed.
This is SCRYPT coin, so it should be mined ONLY by ASICs.
GPU/CPU mining is still possible, but NOT recommended, because there is lots coins that can be mined and make some profit.
You should point this to the potential miners.
Giving them tips to use cgminer/minerd is pointless.
ONLY ASICs!

coinflow · 2018-01-03T22:04:25Z

Basically right, that Mooncoin is not really mineable with CPU and GPU. But you can use cgminer/minerd with ASICs, too.

coinflow · 2018-01-03T22:07:24Z

And what gblass is asking is, what could be a nice upgrade for P2Pool-technology, if not already available: the software could adjust the mining-difficulty according to the hashrate of the single miner. Just like it is in the MPOS- and NOMP-pools. Could this be developed? Would be great.

Kiefff · 2018-01-04T02:34:49Z

Seems that p2pool LTC has around 18,000 share for the 3day sharechain. With mooncoin, seems to be only around 3000 shares? So once p2pool Moon reached 50GH, many miners had trouble submitting shares that didnt get pushed out of the sharechain within hours. The miners are all using ASICs...

Rav3nPL · 2018-01-04T11:42:49Z

We can change share chain data, but it require "restart" of the sharechain. Lenght of share chain not changing share diff, share chain need to be longer than pool block ETA.
Maybe we can do it on new code base? I not see it should be changed ATM.
Share diff is ONLY calculated by current pool speed vs share speed. It is artificial raised for miners that have majority of shares.
If we want "easier share" we have to lower share time. BUT - it leads to two bad things:

some ASICs are not happy by often work reset and lead to more DOA/lower hash speed
pool node that have majority of pool hashing power will orphan many shares from other nodes

OFC it also need chain reset.
