"unknown" block finder error bug?
-
i have discovered a weird error: i have been getting shares ok and been reporting to pools ok and having them match and since i am new to this still virtually especially with mining, this is a first of this error i have seen on any of the forums.
It appears that when i have found and solved a block, i get this error and i am not credited with finding it but the pool gets credit for solving it tho just with a “unknown” finder. error is this:“result does not validate on CPU!”
this is the latest version of Guiminer-scrypt and cuda miner and i love the programs, as it has boosted my hashes greatly but i could not figure out this odd bug.
screenshots are attached.
anyone have any ideas?

I’ve never seen that error either but there are some other people who have and made recommendations here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=167229.720I can also tell you that you didn’t solve any of those blocks in your screenshot. The “unknown” finder is likely his username on that pool. The accepted message you see in your miner just means a share was submitted, not that a block was found.
[/quote]ok im a bit confused now, everytime the “unknown” finder comes up in their webpage is same time i get the cpu validation error and/or have the command prompt display show reduced hashes with a accepted and when the web page shows a negative number as it is moving on to the next round–those 3 variables are exact every time the “unknown” shows up in the web page. i have watched the webpage while i was not mining and no “unknowns” show up–i start mining and they become present---- means something wrong with my software or config even with autotune on or something with pool software doesnt like my setup or software or config. its at least paying the pool still but im worried thats its me that is causing this error and i would like to resolve it somehow if possible.
