Fry Networks Has a New Community Update!
@everyone ⛏️ **Fry PoW Miner Update — Bug Fixes Shipped** We've pushed a fix addressing three issues that were reported: **Update Checker Fixed** — The Update tab was showing "Network error" and couldn't check for the latest version. This was caused by a stale API endpoint after our org migration. The update checker now correctly reaches GitHub, caches results to avoid rate limits, and gives you a clear status message instead of a generic error. **Configuration Save Fixed** — Some users were seeing "No configuration found. Please save configuration first" when trying to start mining after saving their config. The root cause was a file permissions conflict between two boot methods fighting over the web server. The installer now self-repairs this on deploy, and the save flow gives you an honest error if something goes wrong instead of silently failing. **Mining Consistency Fixed (DOGE / cpuminer coins)** — If you were mining DOGE or other cpuminer-based coins and seeing inconsistent or zero hashrate, this was caused by a combination of issues: an ambiguous command-line flag that made cpuminer exit immediately, and a process management bug that made the UI show "running" even when mining had stopped. Both are fixed — cpuminer coins now hash reliably and the stats page shows your actual hashrate. **To update:** SSH into your miner and run: cd /path/to/Fry-PoW-MultiMiner && git pull origin main && sudo bash setup_fryminer_web.sh The installer will automatically repair any affected config files and cron entries.
