But why else can´t i mine then a second block.
Blockheight stands at 0

Without additional details, i only could make generic assumption such as mining software you use isn't compatible with Bitcoin Qt 0.6.2. Besides, what exactly you're trying to achieve here? I think you fell into XY problem.

Thank you.
i compiled it but i dont know how to mine the genesis block.
can you help me?

The blockchain client must be configured to mine the Genesis block. Your blockchain client's configuration file for mining should include the algorithm, Coinbase address, difficulty target, and more ancillary settings. After configuring now start mining using the 'start mining' command or you can give the mining command through the user interface. After starting mining you need to monitor whether the correct blocks are being mined successfully. You can verify with Blockchain Explorer whether the Genesis block has been successfully added to the blockchain after it has been mined.

It's possible, after all there are few altcoin which created using Bitcoin Core (previously called "Bitcoin-Qt" and "Bitcoin") software. You probably should start by looking at guide which shows you to create altcoin by modifying Bitcoin Core source. And genesis block on Bitcoin is hard-coded, so there's no need to mine it.

I think It is possible. Based on genesis block you can create a new chain. This can be done by keeping the same setting. Adjust settings and fork the code but make sure that the setup of the Genesis block is correct. After that compile and then test after that deploy it to a private network and then configure mining and monitor for maintenance.

Hello People.
I need somebody who can help me, building a new chain based on 0.6.2 with same settings and stuff. Like a reset on a private network.
Do you think it is possible? Same genesis-block. same settings (not the network settings since i will only run on one client and try to mine)..
do you think it is possible?
