tried to set forth on some solo mining tonight and again i failed:
kept getting this message:

my config file looks like this :
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rcpallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=5587
rpcuser=x
rpcpassword=z
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
testnet=0
listen=0
maxconnections=100
addnode=69.85.86.195

any idea what i am doing wrong here?  i tried user and password this way too: -u x -p z.

tried on other coins solo as well. all come with same error---if i pool mine with cgminer or even cudaminer--no issues and everything works great.

I am just guessing but try to remove http://

Are you running the -qt client on the same pc you are mining with?

If yes,


should have 127.0.0.1 instead.

If no, then I would assume its a firewall / local network connectivity or configuration problem.
