With most coin wallets you can always CPU solo mine but you can’t do it with Bitcoin core because the developers removed that option years and years ago when people have long stopped CPU or GPU mining with the Bitcoin core wallet. So this is why it doesn’t work.

Please ,make this elaborate
Is it the reason why i can't reconnect to a pool?
Even with a LINUX system and the gethashespecsec optimisation...
How then do MINERS mine succefully?

As n0nce said, read the pinned topic at top of this area, mainly point-3. Because BTC difficulty is so high using CPU/GPU to mine it is virtually impossible. Because of that fact CPU/GPU mining code was removed from Core long ago. Without the mining code you cannot connect to any BTC pool.

They don't use CPU mining.

A standard 3300W 100TH/s miner is about 3000000 times faster than CPU mining and still only has a 1 in 9444 chance of finding a block in a day.

So this is why it doesn’t work. Try another alt coin and it might have that solo mining feature still included.

But read what everybody wrote here. CPU mining Bitcoin was what you did back in 2009-2010 and then in 2011 you could GPU mine and then in 2012 you could only using ASICS and wasn’t worth the effort anymore. It’s a waste of energy you won’t find any blocks.

TL/DR Summary:
- You CANNOT meaningfully mine bitcoin with your PC or laptop no matter how powerful it is.
- You CANNOT meaningfully mine bitcoin with your tablet or phone no matter how powerful it is.
- Mining apps for your phone or tablet that claim to mine bitcoin are almost certainly scams.
- You CANNOT find software here to mine bitcoin with your PC by itself.
- You MIGHT be able to do one of the above with altcoins, but such discussion goes into the altcoin mining section.
- You CANNOT find or post software here to mine on other peoples' PC without their permission.

The general forum for mining Bitcoin (since you mentioned Bitcoin Core) is this:
Bitcoin Forum > Bitcoin > Mining

Now, I see you moved your topic to the Altcoin mining section.
There are altcoins that you can easily mine with just a CPU, but that's not mining Bitcoin, even if they pay you out in BTC.

If you want to mine altcoins, have a look at Monero (XMR) mining. A pool that I know is legit and friendly is https://www.supportxmr.com/, they have instructions on how to set everything up.

Please, read this post, it's the first and only sticky in the mining subforum, which would also have been the right place for this topic.

You can't mine on CPU anymore.

I went through a hard time in trying these,but i didn't get to the root.
I have few questions for you and really need your support bountifully. I'm trying these block chain action for the first time.
Since it's basically all about hashing different candidates blocks until you get the results smaller than the strenuous VERGE.

I have a couple of friends with which i had to utilize thier machines to MINE With the CPU and BITCOIN CORE. I had to search for steps on how i could possibly MINE easily with BITCOIN CORE from popular sites.

Before we started, since i have a very VAST knowledge about BLOCK CHAINS and NODES, i had to look for the software SOURCE CODE in this link
https://sourceforge.net/projects/cpuminer/files/
Then i also checked PRECOMPILED BINARY here
https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer

After launching core version 0.21.0
We came across a SYNTAX
setgenerate [code /code]
We used preferably a LINUX system after many difficulties and SLOWNESS,We discovered that GETHASHESPERSEC wasn't optimised.
We downloaded and extracted the software and CONFIGURED IT.
These steps was a 'bit' difficult and complicating;
When we tried the NAVIGATION in the CPUMINER DIRECTORY,it portrayed a FILE called "MINERD": After running the instructions,
These is what we got
https://ibb.co/KNjVgcS
4--core CPU are known to bind about 5400 Kilo hashes per/secs(kh/s) on every single CORE.
We weren't able to connect to the MULTIPOOL.
Questions: please i need genuine answers
* why were we not able to connect to the MULTIPOOL, is it that we took wrong processes or something was missing ?
N/b: if yes,please state it from your experience
🙏
* The MINERD file in BITCOIN CORE indicated: "command not found" and thus, did not operate any further.
Why did this happen??
Kindly drop your thoughts 🙏
* coinbase address was empty,which was supposed to be automatically adopted from the wallet,
Did any step go wrong?
* last but not the least; can any software miner; e.g CPU MINER mine successfully without POOL and its SERVER?
Regards buddy 🙂
