hyc: then I will try to enable in on the node server too

Hello

when I run p2pool according to the instructions given in github.com/SChernykh/p2pool#how-to-mine-on-p2pool

I get following error from p2pool

2021-12-20 21:14:14.1752 P2Pool get_info RPC request failed: error ECONNREFUSED, trying again in 1 second

2021-12-20 21:14:15.1756 JSONRPCRequest failed to connect, error ECONNREFUSED

2021-12-20 21:14:15.1757 P2Pool get_info RPC request failed: error ECONNREFUSED, trying again in 1 second

2021-12-20 21:14:16.1760 JSONRPCRequest failed to connect, error ECONNREFUSED

How can I solve this?

<mechanic41turk[m> "Since restarting the monerod 3..." <- Also, just to report, my monerod blockchain sync got completed today. It took around 9 days, on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) machine, using raspi.debian.net OS.

I have a feeling that `sudo sysctly vm.nr_hugepages=3072` is making my raspi freeze

Do I need to enter that command, if I am not going to run xmrig on the pi?

lol

you're asking it to reserve 6GB

haha

my poor pi

where did you get that 3072 number from? you only need ~1200 for a full mining node

hyc: from the p2pool github

here: github.com/SChernykh/p2pool#how-to-mine-on-p2pool

and only about 256 for just verifying

hm. that may have been assuming you run p2pool and miner on same box

hyc: probably this.

I will be running the monerod and p2pool on the same raspberry pi 4 (4GB) running debian.

I will be running the xmrig on my laptop machine (8GB ram)

then you should be running p2pool --no-randomx

and you'll only need about 260 hugepages for monerod

hyc: so, I should be running this? `./p2pool --no-randomx --host 127.0.0.1 --wallet YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS`

yeah

ok

thank.

you don't need the --host flag, that's already the default

hyc: good to know, thanks.

I will report back once my raspi gets unfrozen

that will be never. gonna have to hard reoot it

reboot / reset/ whatever

hyc: raspi is responding to my ctrl+c. only that it is taking it 5 mins to register it.

I don't want hard shutdown, as it has corrupted my local copy of the blockchain before, and I had to restart the sync all over.

because it's trying to push everything to swapspace to clear out 6GB of RAM when only 4GB exists

hyc: yeah. silly me.

if it's responding to commands at all, then just issue "reboot" as root

once the ctrl+c command registers to the monerod, it breaks away from its frozen state.
