Title: I can't solo mine in GUIMiner? Post by: epicCreations.org on July 04, 2011, 05:35:31 AM Ok, I realize that it's stupid to solo mine like this, but I just want to know why it doesn't work now, in the case that I decide to solo mine later. But I can't get GUIMiner to let me mine at all.
I set the username and password beforehand, as well as set the bitcoin client path and launched it as a server. These are my settings in GUIMiner host: localhost port: 8332 username: (hidden) password: (hidden) extra flags: no using CUDA CPU miner to test it out. (kidding, I don't actually have a GPU :P ) Title: Re: I can't solo mine in GUIMiner? Post by: vertygo on July 04, 2011, 07:07:25 AM Did you let it download the entire block chain ? check the count here: http://blockexplorer.com/q/getblockcount
and check it against the number on your GUIMiner interface (bottom... right corner?) Title: Re: I can't solo mine in GUIMiner? Post by: epicCreations.org on July 04, 2011, 07:17:03 AM It says "Connecting..." and never updates. I've left it overnight and it hasn't changed. Before it gave this error: "Error 80072EFD: A connection with the server could not be established" but now it doesn't give any error at all. It just sits there.
