Donations accepted : Heavycoin: HGBuGfcfFmSLoYbHQk7LpLkubMoxvg2uCf Datacoin: D9myVoDFPhjWLMrKx7Ag6gH7Y3A6V441cT Difficulty will go up fast! 1) Please use my referral https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=9d68ca19e204 and create a droplet 2CPU 2GB Ram Ubuntu 13.10 64x .It must be 1GB or more. You can create up to 5 droplets. 2) Connect with putty using using ip and password or just write those in the console. 1 putty per droplet! You can always download putty from here http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html Putty is better cause you can copy paste everything: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install yasm -y git make g++ build-essential libminiupnpc-dev sudo apt-get install -y libboost-all-dev libdb++-dev libgmp-dev libssl-dev dos2unix sudo apt-get install automake libcurl3-dev git clone https://github.com/heavycoin/heavycoin cd heavycoin/src make -f makefile.unix ---this will take a few minutes sudo cp -f heavycoind /usr/local/bin/ cd mkdir -p .heavycoin cd .heavycoin nano copy paste all this in the window tha opens: rpcuser=heavycoin maxconnections=300 rpcallowip=* daemon=0 listen=1 server=1 addnode=172.245.221.171 addnode=94.102.53.183 addnode=76.10.203.44 addnode=61.156.57.71 addnode=172.246.113.106 addnode=117.27.110.138 addnode=54.186.44.85 addnode=125.79.96.236 addnode=198.52.200.43 addnode=node01.heavycoin.cc rpcpassword=PASSWORD then press ctrl X, then press Y and now that asks for name write heavycoin.conf .This way we just made the .conf file. git clone https://github.com/heavycoin/cpuminer-heavycoin cd cpuminer-heavycoin nano Makefile.am change minerd_LDADD = @LIBCURL@ @JANSSON_LIBS@ @PTHREAD_LIBS@ @WS2_LIBS@ -lssl to minerd_LDADD = @LIBCURL@ @JANSSON_LIBS@ @PTHREAD_LIBS@ @WS2_LIBS@ -lcrypto ./autogen.sh ./configure CFLAGS="-O3" make heavycoind --daemon cd cd cpuminer-heavy screen -R 1 ./minerd -a heavy -v 32 -o 127.0.0.1:7202 -O heavycoin:PASSWORD press ctrl+A and then D and finally write: watch 'heavycoind listaccounts & heavycoind getmininginfo' and you are already mining with minerd and you can see your balance that should be 0 until you get something...

Post by: GreekBitcoin on March 08, 2014, 04:15:54 PM if you want to use the stand alone miner download it and compile it with this guide https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=506818.0
and just aim it to the deamon Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only! Post by: GreekBitcoin on March 08, 2014, 04:41:57 PM i forgot gen=1 at the .conf file
now its added in the guide. you should restart deamon if you have already ran it Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only! Post by: ntz on March 08, 2014, 05:05:08 PM how to solomine with minerd?
Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only! Post by: GreekBitcoin on March 08, 2014, 05:08:29 PM for mining with minerd you have to run this:
./minerd -a heavy -v 32 -o 127.0.0.1:7202 -O heavycoin:PASSWORD remover gen=1 from .conf though cause you will be mining both with inwallet miner and minerd. i had some problems with restarting deamon after changing .conf file so every time i rebooted my VM with sudo reboot also of course you need to download and compile cpuminer-heavycoin. See here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=506818.0 Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only! Post by: GreekBitcoin on March 08, 2014, 05:23:43 PM i just updated the OP.
now the guide actully downloads and compiles heavycoin and also creates the .conf file. then you download and compile cpuminer-heavy and you run it. it should work fine. i hope i didnt do any mistakes. because i am in a hurry. i will check this thread later.

Because with the wallet --> Nothing with 12 cores.
Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only! Post by: VanBreuk on March 08, 2014, 06:09:38 PM Not working for my droplet... tried to specify rpcport in heavycoin.conf, same result.
Code: [2014-03-08 13:07:27] HTTP request failed: The requested URL returned error: 500 Internal Server Error halp...? Edit: minerd starts to run when gen=0 in heavycoin.conf. So I'm guessing the problem was that heavycoind runs with gen=1 by default and minerd crashes in that case. Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only!

So I'm guessing the problem was that heavycoind runs with gen=1 by default and minerd crashes in that case. minerd wouldnt crash i think but it would mine together which will slow down minerd are you sure you put the right username password? from my .conf file it is heavycoin:PASSWORD btw you have to start deamon with heavycoin --daemon if it isnt running. and if it runs and you change the .conf file you have to restart it. stoppping it didnt work for me so i just rebooted the VM and started it again...

Post by: cntrlsquare on March 08, 2014, 08:28:00 PM I had to add some extra nodes to heavycoin.conf from the main thread to make sure it connected.

It's been working for me for a while using your conf. Honestly I couldn't say 100% sure where the problem was before, since all it took was a couple reboots, regardless of minor conf edits... so thanks again. Now it's about deciding whether 1) Going to bed leaving it in solo mode (and hear it weep and struggle) or 2) Going to bed leaving it playing ping pong with the pool. If we just had an ETA ::) Title: Re: Digital Ocean Heavycoin SOLO Mining Guide! CPU only!
