Title: Solo mining - Nothing gets accepting - Difficulty 1 hashes 0 Post by: yoake on June 14, 2011, 08:15:45 AM Hi, I'm using GUIMiner.
When I use a public pool, my accepted data ticks off pretty steadily, perhaps once or twice a minute. But when I do solo, nothing ever gets accepted. I see Difficulty 1 hashes 0, in the bottom left. On the bottom right the MH/s looks good. In the Summary tab, Accepted and Stale are 0 there as well. Title: Re: Solo mining - Nothing gets accepting - Difficulty 1 hashes 0 Post by: yoake on June 14, 2011, 08:21:45 AM I see, thanks.
Do you know why the difficulty is 1? It sounds like that's either the easiest difficulty or the hardest.

It sounds like that's either the easiest difficulty or the hardest. Doesn't mean anything to my knowledge. Probably a function that doesn't work yet.

It sounds like that's either the easiest difficulty or the hardest. That's how pools work, AFAIK; they send out difficulty=1 hashes for your miner to solve, and there's a certain chance that a difficulty=1 solution will also be a solution for the current, higher, difficulty. Basically, the shares you submit to the pool server are your proof-of-work, just like the full-difficulty hash is the pool's proof-of-work for the full block chain.Title: Re: Solo mining - Nothing gets accepting - Difficulty 1 hashes 0 Post by: swusc2 on June 14, 2011, 08:50:18 AM Q: I'm having trouble solo mining using the 0.3.22 Bitcoin client. Why?
A: This is a known issue, see this thread for more info. Reverting to 0.3.21 or earlier seems to fix the problem. In guimers faq Title: Re: Solo mining - Nothing gets accepting - Difficulty 1 hashes 0 Post by: yoake on June 14, 2011, 08:53:41 AM @mollari, okay, I'll try to understand that.
@swucs2, I'm using the new 0.3.23beta Title: Re: Solo mining - Nothing gets accepting - Difficulty 1 hashes 0 Post by: mollari on June 14, 2011, 09:01:19 AM Oops, I didn't notice you were mining solo - what I wrote doesn't really apply here, then, sorry for that :-X
