Title: I can't get cgminer to mine, need help!
Post by: tmmapp on June 11, 2015, 11:17:27 AM
I got a Antminer U3  ;D , and I'm trying to solo mine to digibyte-qt on ubuntu linux, and it seems I can't git it to work! Here's my digibyte.conf file:

Quote
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=ant
rpcpassword=u3
server=1
daemon=1
txindex=1
debug=1
algo=sha256d
rpcport=14022
port=12024
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=216.250.125.121
addnode=69.164.198.161
addnode=66.228.56.115
addnode=104.200.17.141

I save the digibyte.conf file and restarted digibyte-qt, and it said it had to rebuild db or something like that so I waited until it was done, then I started CGMiner with this command:

Quote
./cgminer -o 127.0.0.1:14022 -u ant -u3 --au3-freq 250 --au3-volt 765

And CGMiner gave me this crap  :( :

[2035-12-12 12:12:30] Waiting for work to be available from pools.

And then CGMiner quit on me. I open digibyte-qt debug window and gave it thees commands:

"currentblocktx" : 0,

"hashespersec" : 0
}

getmininginfo

"pow_algo_id" : 0,
"pow_algo" : "sha256d",

"errors" : "",
"genproclimit" : -1,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false,
"generate" : true,
"hashespersec" : 0
}

Now I restarted CGMiner  :-\ :

Quote
./cgminer -o 127.0.0.1:14022 -u ant -u3 --au3-freq 250 --au3-volt 765

And CGMiner gave me this shit again  :'( :

I been googling  ??? this for hours and found just a bunch shit examples, i'm going to go to bed i been up all night trying to figure it out. There needs to be a setting in side the wallet where you just type you username and password and the wallet does the configuration for you, so you just got to start your rig to local ip:port and username and password.

;D
:) Thanks to anybody that can help! :D

well i cant tell you so much about how to config it, but maybe if you post it in the mining software section someone can give you a faster reply,
the section is here -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=42.0

or maybe in the hardware  section since you are talking about Antminer -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=76.0

goodluck ;)

You need this:
Code:
cgminer -o http://localhost:port -u "username" -p "password" --btc-address "yourAddress" "minerOptions"
That's all, happy mining :)
