yes. its not gen=0 gave problem. But guiminer port not storing.
Always port changes to 8332 after restart of guiminer.

The reason for not mining is very simple.
Its not due to not correctly pointing to bitcoin client.
Its for this reason config in bitcoin.conf
On next release update gen=1.
Also i see a strange problem in guiminer. Even after configuring & SAVING & mining, restarting guiminer with quit changes the port back to 8332 in stead of 8777.
Seems guiminer not saving the port number, so in every restart of guiminer port number have to be given again.
I mined only 30 minutes & got 2 blocks & my balance increased from 9 to 23. Since each block has 7 coins. So i hope i am mining correctly.
@Lolcust: Also please add in your signature in BOLD letters to update the config file with ntp=1 instead of ntp=0.
Many are still using old version & it takes me sometimes 1 or 2 attempts to restart GG to get no error/no ntp error in getinfo.

Code:
# rpcport will also be changed for namecoin here
rpcport=8777
noirc=0
dns=0
gen=0 I changed it to gen=1

Are you sure about the gen=1 ? It should run fine with "gen=0".
I thought "gen" is for CPU mining on the local machine, by the client itself.
But that doesn't give you much coins, CPU's are slow for mining...
Mine is running great now, after tons of trials and one change of computer 
. I think most of the problems should be due to firewall setting as for this computer, I just unpack and run and it is running perfectly.

No need for server. Just solo, localhost, user, pass and port (8777), and GG application opened, of course.
Hm, the RPC error is quite bizzare - I successfully connect GUIminer "out of the zip" (though its option saving is apparently weird and I have to re-input port every time it restarts). Sent ya some geists
P.S.:
dishwara, seriously, open up them ports for them incoming connections
. That will make you and Geist Geld as a whole happier
dishwara, seriously, open up them ports for them incoming connections
. That will make you and Geist Geld as a whole happier Ports are open only. I think the problem is guiminer searching for bitcoin.exe.
For GG which is the client & server file to run to mine solo?
is it geistd.exe?
I think if it is then giving it in the guiminer "location of bitcoin client" solve RPC problem.
Yes, I tend to agree with your gut feel, will have to tweak that bit later on.
hmm, the "peers disagree with NTP" looks more and more like it can pretty much only be a bad ntp response:
Added time data, samples 17, offset -2 (+0 minutes)
-2 -2 -2 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 +0 +0 +0 +0 +0 | nTimeOffset = -1 (+0 minutes)
This is on a box with ntpd synced to a local stratum1 where the current SNTP code consistently gets < 10ms offset to local time from all pool.ntp.org servers I tried.
The basic problem is... we can't trust the local clock to be accurate, and if median-of-peers and SNTP disagree by more than a few sec... which one is right?
Gut feeling says if peers and NTP disagree by too much preferring median-of-peers time and issuing a warning might be better, current code uses NTP time and issues a warning under those conditions.

1) Please pretty please open incoming ports, seriously, moar listerners are needed
2) input the thing you have in your config after "username=" into username field (default is username)
3) input the thing you have in your config after "password=" into password field (default is password)
4) input 8777 into guiminer's port field
5) Start mining !

I'm thinking based on how blocks are generated with large sums of GH that when a pool opens with enough firepower any solo mining with a few GH will likely be in vain.
Small solo miners will be forced to use a pool to get a small cut of the already small GG pie.
Interesting I think.

Well, part of this effort is to establish how big can this pie grow (though, given how most of Bitcoin pie is run by, from Bitcoin Net's perspective, hundreds of nodes at most, it doesn't have to be able to grow very big to "live)
What is more concerning is that fast blocks radically affect some aspects of pool operations, which is where the curious stuff starts.
P.S.:
dishwara, seriously, open up them ports for them incoming connections
. That will make you and Geist Geld as a whole happier

Well, people get that occasionally. Still looking for a cause, but it usually goes away after client restart. Basically, either your NTP server is weird or we have a lot of people who never bothered with ntp=1 which could say scary things about the amount of attention people pay to this thing
Could also indicate you have connection issues, but so far no orphans were reported to be associated with this.
But, better safe than sorry, pls restart.
P.S.:
We will have a "pool friendly" version and a stable bootstrap node on tuesday. Also site.

Interesting fact - when connecting to any-coin through a kinky and weird router (D-Link DIR-615 Wireless N Router), I get no more than 12 connections if "Wan ping" is not allowed, much more if ping is allowed (in both cases, port is forwarded).
Curiously enough, uTorrent seems to give exactly zero rat asses and establishes a lot of incoming connections in both cases.
