Title: yac mining doesnt work (1 ltc reward)
Post by: horus on May 09, 2013, 06:44:25 PM
hi,

i am trying to mine yac on my xeon e5-1620.
according to the console it is hashing with approx 90kh/s
the problem is that i didnt find find a block even after 5h.
my 3 other pcs using the same config found nothing either.

i tried the following:

yacoin-qt.exe -server -gen -addnode=82.211.30.212 -addnode=76.115.8.101 -addnode=192.168.1.237*<myip* -addnode=54.217.249.235 -addnode=54.217.249.230 -addnode=54.217.249.229 -addnode=54.217.249.139 -addnode=54.217.249.230

for the bat
conf file:

addnode=82.211.30.212
rpcuser=blahblah
rpcpassword=blahblah
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

rpcport=8108
port=7688
daemon=1
server=1
gen=1

i am giving a reward for the first one to help me get it hashing of 1 ltc, unfortunately i can sent it on sunday at the earliest

Your missing the processor count '-genproclimit=1' - comes after -gen.

Change the '1' to however many cores you wish to use.

It should look like this - 'yacoin-qt.exe -gen -genproclimit=1' then your addnodes.

thanks for your answer.
maybe it is because i only get 8 connections.
i forwarded the ports but it didnt get any better yet

Yeah, I've forwarded ports, allowed it in my firewall, and still just 8 connections - I have mined two blocks though, so it still works.

Since we're mining with the default client is the conf file even necessary?

why you need a config file???

you mine with the official wallet, not necesary

It's not needed when mining with the client, just when using minerd.

You can add 'maxconnections=xx' to the config file, changing 'xx' to the max number of connections you want.

Does this coin mine easy? Any thoughts on the future value?
