Hello Friends,


I need some help. I got a altcoin developed from WalletBuilders.com. As per the instructions mentioned in their FAQ i made a file unioncoin.conf and also created a windows batch file and renamed to to mine.bat. The below mentioned written on their website.

Open your wallet, and make sure you are connected to another wallet.
You are connected if you see the icon Wallet Connections in the lower right corner of your wallet.

The message "No block source available" will disappear once you mine your first block.


Important: replace "yourcoin" with the name of your coin.

Close your wallet and create the file yourcoin.conf in the folder "%APPDATA%\yourcoin\".

Paste the following text into yourcoin.conf and save the file.

rpcuser=rpc_user
rpcpassword=8cde5e64e7297b1cb4c495d1a
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=4210
listen=1
server=1
addnode=node.walletbuilders.com

Download the latest version of cpuminer from here and extract the zip file.

Create a .bat file named mine.bat and paste the following text into mine.bat.

minerd --url=http://127.0.0.1:4210 --userpass=rpc_user:8cde5e64e7297b1cb4c495d1a

Save the file inside the extracted cpuminer folder.

Open your wallet and execute mine.bat to start mining your first coins.



I followed the exact same process but then also i m getting the following error once i open mine.bat

HTTP request failed. Failed to Connect to 127.0.0.1 port 4210 Connection Refused
json_rpc_call failed. Retry after 30 secs.


I am unable to mine the first block also. I have also attached a snapshot of the same. Would really appreciate if someone could help on this.
