I know, a quick question always turns into a mile long list of crap to do, but I am trying to be short and to the point... I am running BFG miner v:5.4.2 (incase you need that), I am trying to mine LTC from we-mine-ltc pools, and I think I have it set up right, but while mining, I receive "Rejected 1d09f0f6 OCL 0 Diff 8/8 (high-hash)" and none of my work goes through.
This is a copy from BFG miner of the last 18 min of it running.

I have tried to use the chat on their webpage, but they are not interested in helping a starting miner, so now I have to look to other means to get some help...

Thanks for looking.
 
Yah i get this with SGMiner also and i dont fking understand why and Sgminer is a pain to use because it clears the screen after the error gets displayed to you so thats so fking stupid if i ask me.
If i put it in a batch file and use pause even it doesnt help.
My one issue with SGminer is that you dont know which version to use because there are so many fking forks and knives of this blshit and one other issue of many more i have is that it doesnt tell you in help, if you type sgminer.exe --help , what algorithms are supported, u need to fking guess.
But then again u cant even rule out the options u have tried, because you cant fking see the error before it gets cleared, fkcing dumb if u ask me.
thats my 2 cents.

I am not sure is BFGMiner or Nsgminer is the same.

I know for me CCMiner was better but it seemed to me slightly more user friendly and i had an nvidia card.

So for your issue, of high hashrate or rejected share im not sure man, they reckon it is the miner version..... in your case BFGMiner .... and it can also be the pool which is stupid.... or maybe your algorithm is not accurate....another thing they say is that it can be the intensity of the miner....

I myself would like to know what the f it is as i have had this before with one of the coins and i am certain i tried the correct algo and no idea.


Oh they also said one forum that it depends on your AMD driver version also , but thats just crazy because it seems to be too much red tape to me to get anything to work then.
If u change one thing then a lot breaks...

I switched pools after learning (after leaving the chat open for a few days and seeing that people couldn't transfer their coins out) over to lite-coin-pool dot org. remove the spaces and the dashes. but with bfg miner I can use my set up just fine I just had to add a few lines to fun my amd gaming pc and I am running a nice hash with an ok error rate, less than 4% stale over 10000 good no bad. with a little tweaking I could get it less, but its good enough for me though... I have the most up to date drivers and have under volted my system to cool it some, just upped the memory a little and its running over 700 khs/s steady.

I would like you to please show me sometime how u did this?
Please if you may i will be grateful.
 
You might have to play with the intensity, thread concurrency, clock, and memclock. But this setup has my GPU running LTC without a problem. Now that they upped the diff, its a little slower, but 400kh/s is still good for me, esp using one card.


setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
bfgminer.exe -S opencl:auto --scrypt --set-device OCL:intensity=23 --set-device OCL:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL:clock=1150 --set-device OCL:memclock=2000 -o stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 -u workername -p password
pause


The pause is there to stop it from shutting down if their is an error so you can see what is wrong... some people don't know about that so I added that just in case!
 
When you mine on a pool for example, like your one there against the litecoinpool which i also have an account from long ago when i used to run my weak nvidia....
Is there a way to see your daily earning?

You know like in nicehash miner it can at least tell you.....

But when u just run a mine command on any pool and it runs , how do you know the earnings?
 
I'm learning as I go along, and go by what the pool tells me I have done. but I also compare to what the miner says and see if its within 5% of eachother... so far, they have been within .05% so its going pretty good for me.
 
Hi, well i dont understand what u mean? see how it goes? mine looks fine also i dont see errors, BUT it doesnt tell me what the earning is ? amd i also dont know what u mean by 0.5%...
please elaborate of you can man?
 
when you look at the top, you should see something like odb 0 (your graphics card) A: (some numbers) (these are accepted numbers) R: (rejected numbers) Hr: (Hash rate) last one is something like that.... but the A: and the R: numbers are what I compare to the numbers on litecoinpool dot org. as long as the shares are stale and not rejected, its not to bad, if they are rejected, then something is really wrong with your setup and you HAVE to fix your setup right away... If I have more than 3% stale I correct my setup to get it back under 3%, but so far I have not hit that after finding this current setup. when I first started I was looking for a 5% diff, and now I am only hitting .05%. sorry for the confusion.
 
How do you know your earnings though? Cause for me if i run say SGminer X11 or Pascal for example it looks fine and i have more A then R maybe 3 R and maybe 100 A for example.... but it doesnt tell me if it is really performing nicely to give me at least 1.7 dollars.... like how do u know
Maybe i dont know proper servers yet ?
how do u mine on litecoinpool, do you use SGminer ?
 
I use bfgminer and sgminer on litcoinpool. Just log in and it will tell you under the my account tab. make a list of workers if you have more than one rig mining, or if you are using asic or gridseeds or anything like that. and use separate workers for them. this way you know if one goes down you will know which one and will be able to correct that one right away, rather than dicking around hunting down the right one. It can be a pain in the ass once you start getting over 5 going.

Dont think i understand 100% cement here but i have 1 Pc/rig with 2 GPUs and i have 2 workers on the litecoinpool.org site.
username.1/2 thats it.
So you saying i run BFGMiner or SGMiner? .... if you can please give me the command line to use , because i cant fking get mine to work, i dont know what i am doing wrong.
I used to use Easyminer before when i had my old nvidia card so it did all the stuff for me, but im scared to install these things now, i recently installed AwesomeMiner and its fked something up on my machine my hard drive is continuously chopping wood i dont know what the hell is going on.
I always thought SGminer uses the sgminer.conf file BUT for me i dont fking understand or know which Algorithm to use.
It does not have a list so its fking anoying.
dont know why this stuff is so rocket science sometimes, fsake.
and you saying i log in to my account on the web browser and i can see it there , see what there? earnings per day? or speed?
I want to know earnings per day if possible. nicehashminer and mulipoolminer shows you this which is nice.
If i run a miner command outside of a GUI then i dont know how to tell if it is mining effectively, hope this makes sense.
Please give me your command line and some tips advise on what to mine for , ill appreciate it and will donate to your bitcoin address for good Samaritan/deed doings.
 
I already used my command line, but I will help you through your setup if I can, so far your setup should look like
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
bfgminer.exe -S opencl:auto --scrypt --set-device OCL:intensity=23 --set-device OCL:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL:clock=1150 --set-device OCL:memclock=2000 -o stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 -u workername -p password
pause

right?

with a 2 card set up, it should be OCL0 and OCL1 if I remember from the files correctly. so to get your setup up and running hopefully would look something around...

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
bfgminer.exe -S opencl:auto --scrypt --set-device OCL0:intensity=23 --set-device OCL0:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL0:clock=1150 --set-device OCL0:memclock=2000
--set-device OCL1:intensity=23 --set-device OCL1:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL1:clock=1150 --set-device OCL1:memclock=2000
-o stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 -u workername -p password
pause

If this does not work, copy the error you get and post it so I can look into it. But you would have to look into YOUR GPU clock speeds and memclock speeds, mine might be to high or to low for your card and could cause damage. If you do use my setup, I am not responsible for any damage... Use at your own risk...
 
or you can use it as

setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
bfgminer.exe -S opencl:auto --scrypt --set-device OCL0:intensity=23 --set-device OCL0:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL0:clock=1150 --set-device OCL0:memclock=2000 -o stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 -u workername 1 -p password
--set-device OCL1:intensity=23 --set-device OCL1:thread-concurrency=20344 --set-device OCL1:clock=1150 --set-device OCL1:memclock=2000 -o stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 -u workername 2 -p password

pause

both setups should work...

I have not gotten to this yet....please bear with me
 
no prob... you might have to change the thread concurrency and the intensity on the cards until you get a min stale that you are happy with. subtract 2048 from the thread concurrency and test for stability. and test around 16 on intensity. if happy try adding 2048. if still getting a lot of stales, keep subtracting 2048 until you reach the sweet spot for your card. it will drop your hash rate a little, but you will be sending less stale shares.
