for those having "Request to coin client failed: can reach client" issue, make sure your client has already downloaded blockchain and fully synced. After that copy primecoin.conf from claymore's folder to yours under "/users/user/appdata/roaming/primcoin" or copy paste below exactly the way it is... you may get this error if your settings differ slightly from what you had them earlier, which is what happened to me... after updating primecoin.conf make sure to restart the client and try running solo again.

rpcpassword=yourpassword

my feedback so far: i'm getting CPD rates in the range of 1.7-1.8 for 7970 but that's because my rig is 4x7990s so that's 8 cores spread across i7-3770 and 1.7 to 2.0 for r9 290 cards spread across i5 4 cores... i find solo mining is still profitable considering claymore keeps improving his miner... as for ypool for some reason my coin yield is becoming a joke and payouts are just getting smaller, i don't know about you guys...

i just copied .conf file in to "/users/user/appdata/roaming/primecoin" still getting same error
do this
rpcuser= <-- make a single word as your user name
rpcpassword= <--- make a password
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 <--- put that
rpcport=7332
server=1
example:
rpcuser=bobross
rpcpassword=itsyourownlittleword
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=7332
server=1
then in your bat file to start the miner
NsXpmMiner.exe -o 127.0.0.1:7332 -u bobross -p itsyourownlittleworld -xpm your xpm address -di 0 -ss 0 -t 4 -sd 1
pause
^ thats my config just the username and password are different
in other news, found a block 2hrs 17mins into mining on a single 7950.
lets just say i'm pretty happy!
thanks it works now also as i read in the miners readme:
It is very important to have a lot of connections in Primecoin wallet, otherwise you will have many orphaned blocks.
So if you have only 8 active connections, you need to allow incoming connections, check related topics about it.
you guys know how to increase this connection ?
