Title: guiminer mining issue - global name 'GetLastError' is not defined
Post by: gardinio on March 18, 2013, 04:01:50 PM

Hello to everyone,

after a while of research, I decided to get involved in the bitcoin world, so I'm glad to be a new member and a part of this comunity.

Of course, as a newbie at mining, I'm having some issues ...
I was able to run guiminer, connect to slush's pool once. Accidentaly, I kill the process and after that, I'm getting all the time this error
"NameError: global name 'GetLastError' is not defined".

I've expended a couple of hours trying to fix this without success. Even I try to delete bitcoin folder info (but not "wallet" of course).
My guiminer console output is this:

2013-03-18 02:10:41: Running command: poclbm.exe xxxxx.worker1:xxxxx@api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 --device=0 --platform=0 --verbose -r1
2013-03-18 02:10:41: Listener for "Default" started

2013-03-18 02:10:42: Listener for "Default": File "serial\tools\list_ports_windows.pyo", line 182, in comports
2013-03-18 02:10:42: Listener for "Default": NameError: global name 'GetLastError' is not defined

I hope someone can giveme a hand on this...

Regards
Edgar
