I guess someone intentionaly compiled cgminer without getwork support so that you can only mine at pools.

Lame.

Oh sorry. I think this version of cgminer that just came out actually doesn't support solo mining. It only works with stratum.

You're better off connecting to a pool anyway. Even if you had gigahash speeds you wouldnt find a block for weeks at this difficulty.

I'm using this pool right now pretty successfully.

max.suprnova.cc

I'm not sure about that, i've already gotten 10 blocks together with some friends at around 1 GH/s all together.

(4 blocks today)

That did not fix it for me unfortunately :[
Cudaminer works with http://127.0.0.1 but cgminer does not.

Which cgminer are you using?

I'm using the one from http://maxdl.1gh.com/cgminer-windows.zip?nocache=0.3246260860469192

Here's my maxcoin.conf

Code:
# MaxCoin Example Config
#https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Running_Bitcoin#Bitcoin.conf_Configuration_File

# Seed nodes
addnode=maxcoin.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxcoinus.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxcoinasia.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxexplorer.cloudapp.net
addnode=213.179.202.19
addnode=91.121.8.25
addnode=213.192.56.163:8334

# Enable RPC
server=1

# RPC information
rpcuser=ausername
rpcpassword=apassword
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
rpcport=2121

# Mining
# gen=0

Comment out gen=1 or change to gen=0. This turns off the wallet miner.

Make sure you have rpconnect=127.0.0.1 this lets you connect to your localhost
Add an rpcport, it can be anything. I set mine to rpcport=2121.


In cgminer change your config to

Code:
cgminer.exe --keccak -o localhost:2121 -u ausername -p apassword

substitute ausername and apassword for the username and password you set your rpcuser= and your rpcpassword= to

What's your cgminer config? Also do you have a rpcport= specified in your maxcoin.conf file?
