I'm trying to mine PWR coin using MacMiner
it doesnt show the usual "yay"
it keeps "booing"

what does that mean? I checked the pool site there is no action going

what am I doing wrong?

P.S when I press macminer it gives me an error " this file is damaged and cannot be opened" so I clicked on show package and explored the file till I saw the minerd file and i just put it in the terminal and executed the order

the result is this:

is there anyway to change the Boos to Yaays?!

Hi,

Please post the exact command you are using with minerd.
use "x" for user / pass if you dont want to publicly display your real details
I dont have a mac, but use minerd, so should be able to test pool for you, and help you

There are 2 reasons why you are getting "Boo",

First one means your GPU is way overclocked or has incorrectly modded memory straps and it's submitting wrong shares to the pool, however since you are on a Mac, you are most likely CPU mining and this isn't the issue.

Second one means you selected the wrong algo, and it found a share for a different algo than the one required. So you need to configure your BAT file and put in the correct parameters.

[Quoted to display the image]

100% "booooo" or rejected shares usually was a result of wrong specified minerd file for the particular coin.

Perhaps a MacMiner user can help you with the correct setups and commands.
