What do you want for details Jay_Pal? I'm sorry I'm new to this and trying to learn
I have tried to write about the bat. file at least 50 times as I read one should do but it does not work Sad
Try starting cgminer without the batch file right from command line with this:
Code:
cgminer.exe -o http://miningpoolhub.com:17246 -u asic -p x
What happens then? If there´s still the specify pool message, there is something wrong with the pool address.

Yes, it says the same thing again Sad

I've tried wht http://hub.miningpoolhub.com before and the same thing then

Please, I'm a beginner, please help me!

Try to get my Red Fury working for a few days now but do not understand what I'm doing wrong

I make the .bat file as it has been everywhere, tested several different settings but no Sad

Im using cgminer and when they start flashing, Cg says just

 [2018-01-14 22:13:22.661] Started cgminer 4.10.0
 [2018-01-14 22:13:22.661] Started cgminer 4.10.0

Please help a beginner
The answer is right there: "Need to specify at least one pool server."

I've done it in the .bat file

cgminer.exe -o miningpoolhub.com:17246 -u asic -p x

You're missing the protocol: cgminer.exe -o http://miningpoolhub.com:17246 - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5215113

Hi Jay_Pa i'm testing but it still does not work, have you time to help my please!

I tried to download cgminer 3.7.2

Why are you trying to download such an old version of CGMiner?

Perhaps an acute nostalgia for the good old days? :p

I fire up an Jalapeno or USB Block Erupter once in a while to watch the CGMiner screen roll by.  Ah the good ole days Smiley

I can't fire my Jala since the AC adapter burned...
And I don't plug the BE's cause the 4 I never sold would burn my hubs and be no useful!
But since I've never bought any great hardware, I still have 3 RedFury and 7 Antminer U1 hashing away... Would it be considered "nostalgia" since I've never unpluged them? :p

Dogecoin mining have problem with new versions.

CGMiner is a Bitcoin miner not an altcoin miner.  There have been forks of CGMiner that mine altcoins.  Check in the altcoin section for those forks.

Hi
I tried to download cgminer 3.7.2 for windows from sourceforge but chrome alarmed its dangerous and blocked so I tried with firefox this time windows alarmed as threats.
Next time I tried your source: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer but both firefox and chrome alarmed as "Reported Unwanted Software Page" and "The site ahead contains harmful programs"
Whats wrong?

Hi;

New at this, but I got as far as securing 2 S9's and plugging them in.  They are hashing for a pool, while I try to figure out how to solo mine with them.

I want to be able to play with a candidate block.  It's academic in a sense - I want to see the mechanics in play, from constructing a custom transaction, to watching a miner take it and attempt to assemble a valid block.

I understand that by joining a pool, we give up that part of the Bitcoin blockchain process.

Are my assumptions wrong?
Is there any hope of mining solo with an S9, (with Core attached) ?



Thanks for any advice.

Cheers!
The S9 doesn't contain the official cgminer so you're asking for support in the wrong place. Nonetheless the S9 isn't capable of solo mining by itself; you'll need to run pool software such as ckpool or if you want the level of customisation you're talking about you're going to have to write software yourself.


Thanks for the response. 

Is there more appropriate hardware that you might recommend? 
You are asking to do multiple things here. Mining solo is as easy as setting up bitcoind, ckpool and then pointing your S9 at it. However "playing with a candidate block" is seriously high level shit that should only be done by people who understand code and bitcoin at a high level. There is no "better" hardware to use, as the only thing that makes it possible to mine a block is hashrate, and the more hardware you throw at it the more chance you have at finding a block. An S9 is likely to solve a block on average once every 5 YEARS. It is likely the hardware will burn out before you actually achieve anything at all (let alone make a profit.) Hope this helps put it into perspective.
