Title: Solo Mining Scrypt based coin is running as Mh/s? Post by: CrimsonGT on January 05, 2014, 01:53:57 AM To avoid having to constantly open new wallets as I change the altcoins that I am mining, I setup a Linux VPS to run the servers.
I downloaded and built HoboNickels, which seems to be running fine. However, when I connect my miner to it now, my CGMiner is running in MH/s instead of KH/s and has 100% Failure rate. My HoboNickels.conf file on the VPS Server: rpcuser=MyUserName rpcpassword=MyPassword rpcallowip=* rpcport=9332 daemon=1 server=1 gen=0 I am very confused by this and hoping someone can chime in and provide some insight as to what is going on?

Post by: argakiig on January 06, 2014, 07:45:01 AM sounds like you need to add --scrypt to the startup command as cgminer defaults to the sha256d algo. also make sure you are using a version of cgminer before 3.6.6 or else it will not start

Post by: CrimsonGT on January 06, 2014, 02:46:41 PM Come to think of it I probably forgot to include "--scrypt" in the command line as I have about 50 different batch files, but made that one by hand for some reason. I will double check when I get home to make sure but that is very likely the mistake, thanks so much!
