Topic: [BOUNTY $5] [n00b] Setup BFL Single in a mining pool (Read 1803 times)
Hmm, I'm confused.. where is the miner pointed? It's definitely working, but why are no statistics showing up? I'd try another pool.. You'll be able to tell in minutes.
It was accepting and processing blocks all day while I was at work. The log was filled with messages like this:

I would recommend slush's pool

Under Pool options "load balance pool & server" is checked with a pool priority of 1) Eligius 2) Eclipse MC 3) Others. Mining Kernel is bfgminer
Where is that information at? Your pool priority number 1 should be the pool you are mining at, is Eligius the same as itzod? Pool #1 should be your desired mining pool.

It does have the option to switch it from bfgminer to cgminer. I've tried it both ways with various mutations on the syntax.
I just tried it again and had to stop and restart the miner. Did I just lose all the progress I've made over the last twelve hours?

From what I understand, you're not making any progress. But if you had made progress, stopping the miner doesn't rescind progress.

Try removing space after tcp. That'd be my first guess. Second, I'm not sure about that specific pool, but you should be able to log into almost any (every?) pool and see immediately hashrate.. or at least within a block. (Edit: As long as you are seeing "accepted" shares from the pool that is connected, anyway)
I have mined at BTCGuild.com, however. If you'd like to try them, I'm proof positive it is as simple as -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -userpass login_1:x If you still fail at your pool, you may try it. Make sure your worker is login_1, though. Or whatever you want.
Also, I've not used the BFL, but the kernal is BFGMiner? Does it have a kernal for CGMiner? Shot in dark here..
Is the path in that text for cgminer correct? Ie you don't need to point it to the file, you're in dos shell in the folder when you're opening cgminer? Or is it remote and needs to be pointed? IE C:\CGMiner\CGminer.exe -o url, etc. Could be the source, normally should give a command error if something is wrong.

Ok, I have a few questions. I just received a BFL 60Ghz Single on almost exactly my one year order anniversary date. Yay...
I installed the Easy Miner software and it appears to be mining. I keep seeing messages like this on the logs tab:
[2013-09-18 23:28:43] Accepted xxxxx BFL 0i pool 0 Diff 26/16] So I assume that means it's mining. Right?
On the settings page under automatic payment options, I selected "Bitcoin Wallet" and put in one of my addresses. Under Pool options "load balance pool & server" is checked with a pool priority of 1) Eligius 2) Eclipse MC 3) Others. Mining Kernel is bfgminer
First question: I've had this thing running all day and don't have any BTC. The earnings statistics on the pool mining page all show NA and there is no BTC in the address I have on the settings page. Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to wait 24 hours? Whats the deal?
Second question: I was doing some research on mining pools thought pool.itzod.ru looked pretty good. There are no fees and they share transaction earnings. What else should I be looking at?
So far I have been unable to get pool.itzod.ru working using the manual mining option on the settings page. This is what I have typed in:
cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://pool.itzod.ru:3333 -u fakeusername -p fakepassword -I 9
When I try to start mining with that text on the manual mining line it fails to start and all I see on the logs page is "ind the path specified" which I assume means they are unable to find the path to something.
Is pool.itzod.ru the right pool for me? If so, how do I get it working in Easy Miner? If you're able to answer all of my questions I'll send you $5 USD worth of BTC. Thanks!
