A bit of an update. I tried using the cgminer build for GAWminers and I no longer get the 2 errors I mentioned but I still only get:

Code:

[2014-08-23 18:42:23] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 18:44:23] Network diff set to 660K

Is this normal?

Thanks Again!

I'm new to mining and thought I would give it a try. I did ok mining on pools but like many others I wanted to give solo mining a try. Mostly because I saw a message saying you found a block for the pool! Smiley

Problem is I don't think it's working. This is what I get when I try.

Code:

[2014-08-23 16:34:03] Zeus 0 on \\.\COM5 detected.
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] Probing for an alive pool
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] blktmpl error: Unrecognized block version, and not allowed to reduce or force it
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] Pool 0 is hiding block contents from us
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] Network difficulty changed to 9 (70.36M)
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] Pool 0 http://localhost:8385 alive
[2014-08-23 16:34:03] No suitable long-poll found for http://localhost:8385
[2014-08-23 16:34:34] Network difficulty changed to 9 (70.94M)
[2014-08-23 16:34:34] New block detected on network


After that it's just repeated over and over.

Code:

[2014-08-23 16:36:35] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:37:05] Network difficulty changed to 9 (69.92M)
[2014-08-23 16:37:05] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:37:36] Network difficulty changed to 9 (70.08M)
[2014-08-23 16:37:36] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:38:06] Network difficulty changed to 9 (71.32M)
[2014-08-23 16:38:06] New block detected on network

[2014-08-23 16:38:36] New block detected on network

[2014-08-23 16:40:07] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:41:37] Network difficulty changed to 9 (72.71M)
[2014-08-23 16:41:37] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:42:38] Network difficulty changed to 9 (72.08M)
[2014-08-23 16:42:38] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:43:38] Network difficulty changed to 9 (72.71M)
[2014-08-23 16:43:38] New block detected on network
[2014-08-23 16:44:39] Network difficulty changed to 9 (71.84M)




The thing that worries me is the "blktmpl error: Unrecognized block version, and not allowed to reduce or force it" and "Pool 0 is hiding block contents from us".

Here is my botlecaps.conf:

Code:

rpcuser=tony
rpcpassword=x
rpcallowip=*.*.*.*
rpcport=8385
addnode=69.85.86.195
addnode=50.137.233.14         
addnode=69.10.44.115           
addnode=192.64.86.238
daemon=1
server=1
listen=1

block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493


And this is my bat file for starting:

Code:

bfgminer --scrypt -o http://localhost:8385 -u tony -p x --zeus-cc 6 --zeus-clk 328 --request-diff 128 -S zeus:\\.\COM5 --no-submit-stale


I started the wallet with -server.

I'm not sure what is causing the problem. My wallet has been synced. All the settings and conf I got from various "how to's" on the internet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
