trying to setup cgminer for solo mining, I constantly get this error as soon as I run earthcoin-qt in server mode: "you must set a rpcpassword in the configuration file earthcoin.conf, it is recommended to use the following rpcuser...." and the program closes.
Although I have correctly renamed the conf file (it's actually a conf not a conf.txt), and having setup the following parameters in the conf:
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=15678
rpcconnect=192.168.1.0
addnode=64.31.34.145
addnode=198.96.90.41
it still does not work.
you need to put the config for earthcoin-qt in %appdata%/earthcoin or on linux ~/.earthcoin
