Dash p2pool setup help pls

I figure "ImportError: No module named py2exe" has to be the problem with my setup because it's the only error i get when i follow the guide in the github original post, otherwise i can start run_p2pool.py and i see it start with a few errors one of them being no module named x11_hash, i can browse to the p2pool statistics page and i can see it connected to my wallet, I can connect my miner to it but my miner gets [2015-10-10 13:06:03] stratum_recv_line failed.
I'd love to get this setup, any help is much appreciated

May I know if you follow this instruction from README.md file not working?

Install Python modules:
-------------------------
Download the required submodules:

git submodule init
git submodule update

x11_hash:

cd x11-hash
python setup.py install
...

For stratum_recv_line failed, try running miner for a while, p2pool should connect with other peers and sync the shares during start up which may cause this error for a while...
 
Thanks for the reply thelazier! When i use "git submodule init" i get "fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
 
Got it working now thanks for all your help i have a couple more questions for you if you don't mind.

I noticed the miner is 1 block ahead of the Dash Block Explorer? is it normal?

I'm getting spammed with,
2015-10-11 08:06:57.011039 Local: 24530kH/s in last 10.0 minutes Local dead on arrival: ~1.0% (0-3%) Expected time to share: 20.0 minutes
2015-10-11 08:06:57.011084 Shares: 0 (0 orphan, 0 dead) Stale rate: ??? Efficiency: ??? Current payout: (0.0000)=0.0000 DASH
My miner is submitting shares so I'm not sure why the pool isn't reporting them?

Also since i now have p2pool-dash as a git repository how do i copy a new web front end into web-static when i don't have permission?
Thanks again mate

The miner is trying to work on the new block which is 1 block ahead of Dash Block Explorer, this is normal.

Got "Yays" on Miner is not always got shares count on p2pool, this is normal.

The p2pool-dash folder have same file's permission as user who run "git clone" , so you can always change anything as your wishes.

Congratulation and Enjoy Mining :)
BTW, I understand that this question should be moved to https://dashtalk.org/forums/questions-and-help.70/ ,
coingun Propulsion fernando , please kindly help.
 
Thanks again Lazier, It's all working pretty well.
so are there currently 2 different P2Pool's on the dash network? after mining on mine for a couple of days I've noticed that it shows up on the chain explorer as P2pool-DASH whenever it finds a block but there looks like there is also P2pool which has a much higher find percentage.
Do you by chance know how to connect with P2pool ? i can see the website points to a dead link http://drk.poolhash.org

The information is outdated, I hope they will correct it soon.
BTW, these blocks are from another pool (dash.poolto.be) as you may see at https://dashninja.pl/blocks.html

P2Pool.org says:

How do I get some shares?
When a miners share is accepted by a P2Pool node it is broadcast on the P2P network to all the other nodes. If a majority of other nodes accept the share, it becomes confirmed in the sharechain. For your P2Pool node to accept and broadcast the share it must meet the minimum p2pool difficulty.



I am also mining with ccminer on Ubuntu 15.04 on P2Pool.
While mining, ccminer spits out a diff of something between (diff 0.003) and (diff 0.100).
[use --show-diff in the commandline]


curl http://127.0.0.1:7903/difficulty tells me that the actual minimum difficulty is 0.28277951094484216


Would it matter increasing the difficulty in the commandline of ccminer?
--username username-or-address/+0.3 to increase diff by 0.3

The difficulty adjustment is useful when you have too fast solving the hash (, so many yays in a second) based on diff assigned by p2pool node.Anyway, you may try adjust as much as you like. I'm not sure whether this will directly help getting more accurate yays/shares rate.

Enjoy mining ;)
