Topic: Solo mining wont work :( please help (Read 1537 times)

anyone got an answer?

thanks but didnt help.

Boot into safe mode
Logon using your Administrator level user
Next, click Start > Type MSCONFIG hit Enter
Go to the SERVICES tab and search for network services.
Make sure that it works and is checked.

Or manually set all network services to automatic.

cgminer --scrypt -o http://127.0.0.1:52686 -u abb -p abdc -I 13 -g2 --thread-concurrency 8192



it do not need  http://    try again

what to look for exactly? could you explain a bit?

These parameters
daemon=1
server=1
in .conf activate server mode.

All very good advice given here

The problem is thus not with your conf or bat files.

It could be your wallet is not open in server mode - open before running the bat file.

Check running windows network services in Admin panel.

yes, copied the same files to home, they work there. Problem is not in the files, I tried every coin out there. Problem is with something else on windows, which i cant figure thought someone here might know. well.

usially the most simple things are wrong.
please check your rpcuser and rpcpassword in .conf file and in .bat file. are they the same?

Try this

cgminer -a scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:52686 -u abb -p abdc -I 13 -g2 --thread-concurrency 8192

didnt work.

been doing that :p well this shit has cost me so much. I'd made more coins by solo. its way better for me. I know all the steps and done everything already. Works on windows 8 pc just fine

Nothing worked I tried with other coins as well. Wonder how they work fine on my home pc. I completely disabled the firewall and my avast antivirus and still not working

don't know if this will help but i'll post it anyway, sent it to someone earlier who asked me how to do it;

goes like this, cuz i'm not sure what parts of the process you may or not be familiar with.

DOWNLOAD xxxcoin wallet.zip/rar -> EXTRACT-> open xxxcoinwallet-qt.exe -> let it FULLY SYNC  *** if it does not detect a block chain source within 10 minutes, delete the extracted wallet folder, delete the appdata/xxxcoin folder, empty trash, and extract and run the xxxcoinwallet .exe again. it should sync eventually.

from there, once your wallet has FULLY SYNCED,

CLOSE WALLET -> BROWSE to user/appdata/roaming/xxxcoin

CREATE a text file in notepad inside of this folder, RENAME it to xxxcoin.conf (MAKE SURE file extensions -ARE- shown, this can be disabled/enabled in control panel-folder options)

ENTER TEXT into xxxcoin.conf; these details;

daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
rpcuser=USERNAME <<<--- SAME USERNAME AS WHAT IS ENTERED INTO CGMINER SCRIPT
rpcpassword=PASSWORD  <<<----- SAME PASSWORD AS WHAT IS ENTERED INTO CGMINER SCRIPT
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
port= WHATEVER YOU WANT.. i think (i always set it one number lower than RPCPORT)
rpcport=XXXXXX <<<--- SPECIFIC TO EACH COIN, CHECK ORIGINAL POST OF XXXCOIN FOR THESE DETAILS
addnode=XXXXXX <<<--- SPECIFIC TO EACH COIN, MAY OR MAY NOT BE NECESSARY, CHECK ORIGINAL POST

SAVE AS xxxcoin.conf in YOURPCNAME/APPDATA/ROAMING/XXXCOIN

NOW, BROWSE to xxxcoin wallet folder, containing xxxcoin-qt.exe
CREATE a text file, NAME it start.bat
RIGHT CLICK, EDIT FILE, INPUT;
xxxcoin-qt.exe -server
SAVE as start.bat (must be .bat, not .txt, make sure extensions are allowed to be shown)

RUN start.bat, you should see a CMD WINDOW pop up, and then the wallet will load and SYNC.
Once the wallet is FULLY SYNCED
RUN YOUR CGMINER SOLO SCRIPT, IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS;

cgminer --scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:XXXXX -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -I 12 -w 128

I also use these flags for my 3 R9 290X's

-I 20,18,20 -w 128 --thread-concurrency=32764 --temp-cutoff 96 --temp-overheat 94 --temp-target 80 --gpu-fan 40-100 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 1000,917,917 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-powertune 20 -g 1 --lookup-gap 2 --no-submit-stale

so in the end xxxcoinsolo.bat file looks like cgminer --scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:XXXXX -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -I 12 -w 128 -I 20,18,20 -w 128 --thread-concurrency=32764 --temp-cutoff 96 --temp-overheat 94 --temp-target 80 --gpu-fan 40-100 --auto-fan --gpu-engine 1000,917,917 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-powertune 20 -g 1 --lookup-gap 2 --no-submit-stale

XXXXx (RPCport #), and username and password have to match the xxxcoin.conf file

run cgminer script, should say something about NO LONGPOLL FOUND,  watch for block detection.. whether they are rejected or accepted, you are successfully solo mining. You can also use whatever extra cgminer flags in the script after the example.

I know how frustrated you must feel ...

Use:

rpcuser=xxx
rpcpassword=x
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=7998
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
testnet=0
listen=0
addnode=62.4.12.38
addnode=62.4.13.198
addnode=219.153.36.203
addnode=93.89.117.211
addnode=141.0.117.16:52687
addnode=24.49.48.205

cgminer.exe --scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:7998  -u xxx -p x

Note: The port changes - do exactly like this.

PS: Ensure firewall open on this port.

try to use localhost:52686 instead http://127.0.0.1:52686

THIS.

I tried to use that port with correct coin

hi, thanks for the reply. Yes. xxxcoin.conf is located in the correct xxxcoin folder in Appdata.

I used cgminer 3.1.1 as well. Can you give me 3.3.x's download link and I will try that out that might work? Even though I doubt it will because same files and settings work on my windows 8.
