SO I did some research and I can't find a definitive answer...I followed the HP Linux Compilation Guide perfectly (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xpm-primecoin-high-performance-linux-compilation-guide-259022) so I am starting my server with the command "./run-primecoind" which executes the following:
Code:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
killall --older-than 10s -q run-primecoind primecoind
function background_loop
while :; do
primecoind >/dev/null 2>&1
sleep 1
done
background_loop &' > run-primecoind
chmod +x run-primecoind
And my .CONF being:
Code:
server=1
gen=1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=primecoinrpc
rpcpassword=SOME_SECURE_PASSWORD
sievesize=1000000
SO....this is where i'm confused. I can obviously send RPC commands to the daemon however I can not request a -printtoscreen unless I execute primecoin as "primecoind -daemon -printtoscreen" - and the printtoscreen stats are pretty much what tell me that I am mining.
Furthermore, there are 3 orphaned transactions when I type "listtransactions" but yeah like I said, no freshies... so.. do I need to run -daemon to be mining properly? Should I use "primecoind -daemon -printtoscreen" or is ./run-primecoind doing the same thing?
Apologies for the structure of this thread, I am verrry tired :|
