You have the blockchain fully downloaded?

I dont think so. I cloned the git repository. Then followed the OP instructions. All I end up with is yacoind. Then I setup the config file and tried to run yacoind. This is the command I ran:

./yacoind -gen -genproclimit=1 -u xxx -p x

I am definitely missing something. I think I don't really have the wallet itself just the miner. Right? If yes, how do I install the wallet?

Edit: I think I figured it out...

I compiled the way it is mentioned in OP. I am getting this error:

error: couldn't connect to server

This is my config file:
rpcuser=x
rpcpassword=x
addnode=82.211.30.212
addnode=78.21.9.49
addnode=88.204.169.242
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=9323
port=7688
daemon=1
server=1
gen=1
genproclimit=8

Any ideas how can I fix it?

To use the cpuminer, how should I configure yacoind? I currently have this configuration:

rpcuser=
rpcpassword=
rpcallowip=
rpcport=7332
port=7688
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
addnode=82.211.30.212
addnode=78.21.9.49
addnode=76.115.8.101
addnode=124.149.56.205
addnode=178.130.36.81
addnode=82.6.77.126
addnode=106.187.55.212
addnode=81.202.104.33
addnode=84.200.17.178
addnode=88.204.169.242


My yacoin.conf is mostly like yours except I left the ports at the default ports and don't have all the addnode lines.

Dumb question, how do I start Yacoin in ubuntu once I've compiled it !

If it compiled, then the yacoind binary should have dropped into the src directory where you ran the make command.

thanks for that  Smiley

You should be able to run "./yacoind" in the directory you ran the "make" in.  It will complain that it needs some stuff added to yacoin.conf to get it started.

i mined now half an hour with my 6core 1090t and didn't find a block yet....how long does it normaly take to get one? Diff rise 100% in this time xD

Other question...is it possible to add another pc's gpu to the same wallet / client i'm mining now, or has every pc to use his own client and mine against each other?

Also the OPs command doesn't use -server switch but maunderingcabal includes it.  Is the -server switch required to mine with a conf file or can you mine with it this switch and with no conf file?  I've been spending a lot of time fiddling with settings and no coin.

According to my testing, you need the -server switch and conf file to mine at all (which doesn't really make sense but oh well).

Not true, I don't have -server or a conf file and have mined 2 blocks in the last 4-5 hours.

That's weird. With just the -gen switch on Windows, I was getting 0 hashes per second, and the CPU usage was only ~6% (it wasn't even trying to mine).

All I have is -gen and the nodes and I'm getting around 100 kh/s and CPU usage near 100%.
