Miningcore Mining Pool Restart Guide

This guide provides instructions for restarting your Miningcore mining pool server after a system reboot or shutdown.

Server Restart Procedure

1. Start Cryptocurrency Daemons

First, you must initialize the cryptocurrency daemons:

# Start the Maza daemon
mazad

# Start the eMark daemon
emarkd

Important: Allow the daemons to fully synchronize before proceeding to the next step.

2. Launch Miningcore Using Screen

Using screen ensures your mining pool continues running even if your SSH session disconnects:

# Create a new screen session named "Miningcore"
screen -S Miningcore

# Navigate to the Miningcore build directory
cd core/build

# Launch Miningcore with the configuration file
./Miningcore -c uu.json

3. Managing Your Screen Session

  • Detach from screen session: Press Ctrl + A + D
  • Reattach to screen session: Run screen -r Miningcore
  • Reattach if only one screen exists: Simply run screen -r

Configuration

The mining pool configuration file is located at:

/root/core/build/uu.json

This JSON file controls all aspects of your mining pool including:

  • Supported coins
  • Port configurations
  • Payout settings
  • Pool fees
  • Difficulty settings

Additional Information

  • Once Miningcore is running, miners can immediately connect to your pool
  • No additional services need to be started manually
  • Always start cryptocurrency daemons before launching Miningcore
  • The configuration file can be modified to adjust pool settings as needed

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues after restart:

  1. Verify both cryptocurrency daemons are running and synchronized
  2. Check the Miningcore logs for any error messages
  3. Ensure your configuration file is valid JSON with no syntax errors
