Newbie here.
Can not setup mine to work properly.
Can someone help?
Thnks
this is what gui sents me in console:
2017-12-29 23:06:31: Listener for "Minion": localhost:8332 29/12/2017 23:06:31, [Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
2017-12-29 23:06:32: Listener for "Minion": localhost:8332 29/12/2017 23:06:32, IO errors - 1, tolerance 2

2017-12-29 23:06:34: Listener for "Minion" shutting down
Managed messed this also:
Also - what if one wanted to add some miners from remote locations - assuming I can VPN/pass the IP traffic - is it theoretically possible to solo mine, using one minerd, with multiple miners both local and remote?
Anyone had any success with this?
edit 'Minderd'
Yes, this is actually quite easy. You need to make some changes to the bitcoin.conf file that is located in your users directory. In Win7 it's located here: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin
Then edit or add the following if it's not already there.
rpcuser=[Pickausername]
rpcpassword=[Pickapassword]
rpcallowip=[Pick the IP's you want to allow to connect to the server, wildcards like 192.168.1.* will work]
rpcport=[Pick your IP port number, default 8332]
One you have that setup, launch your bitcoin client in server mode (either launch bitcoind.exe for a headless version or launch the regular client with the -server switch).
Now just configure your clients to connect to the IP address where the bitcoin server is running with the username, password and port you set in the bitcoin.conf file. Make sure you open up any firewalls on the server to allow traffic on that port through.
At that point, you can configure any miner/client to connect to that server to solo mine, assuming you can get it on the local subnet and connect to that machine.
The downside is that there is no status views of who or what is connected to your bitcoin server other than what you can see from the miner's side.
With set bitcoinpath , also do have problems , and now core is downloading again from start , after i started , Launch bitcoin client as server.
server , solomining

Bro if you want to bitcoins using GUI then my suggestion is not to mine..as if you mine using GUI then it doesn't make any profit..as the electricity consumed will be much more than your profit..so its ultimate loss..If you have free electricity then you can start mining...and one thing more..dont mine bitcoins, try to mine altcoins which will give you more profit..
