Title: authentication problem mining dogecoin Post by: yayitswei on December 13, 2013, 06:19:20 PM Hi, I'm trying to mine dogecoin from a pool using cpuminer 2.3.2:
minerd --url=stratum+tcp://doge.scryptpools.com:3333 --userpass=worker.pass Where "worker.pass" is the credentials for the worker I created on the site. However, I keep getting "authentication failed": [2013-12-14 02:02:13] Binding thread 0 to cpu 0 [2013-12-14 02:02:13] Starting Stratum on stratum+tcp://doge.scryptpools.com:3333 [2013-12-14 02:02:13] Binding thread 1 to cpu 1 [2013-12-14 02:02:13] Binding thread 2 to cpu 2 [2013-12-14 02:02:13] 4 miner threads started, using 'scrypt' algorithm.

Much thanks in advance! Title: Re: authentication problem mining dogecoin Post by: Azukki9 on December 13, 2013, 07:00:33 PM Is that username / password combination written correctly? I use it like USERNAME.WORKERNAME:WORKERPASS (http://doges.org/index.php?topic=592.0 (http://doges.org/index.php?topic=592.0) dogecoin guide)
Title: Re: authentication problem mining dogecoin Post by: yayitswei on December 14, 2013, 07:34:31 AM Actually, I believe it might be because minerd doesn't support the stratus protocol?
Now I'm trying to install the stratus proxy from here: https://github.com/slush0/stratum-mining-proxy (https://github.com/slush0/stratum-mining-proxy) Title: Re: authentication problem mining dogecoin Post by: yayitswei on December 14, 2013, 07:44:57 AM Oh nevermind, I got it to work without the proxy! The issue was exactly what you pointed out-- the proper login was yayitswei.myworker:password, where yayitswei is my login name for the pool.
Thanks for the tip. |
