Title: How to solo mine if server does not support getwork
Post by: digitalcitizen on December 19, 2018, 03:39:23 AM
Hi,

I've tried a search on solo mining if mining software reports a problem, and the logs show "getwork" is not supported.

Apparently I can use --no-longpoll and --no-getwork with eg. ccminer, would that make it use getblocktemplate instead?

Specifically I want to solo mine defcoin, and I'm looking at the RPC interface and probably setting up stratum to point my miner to it.  Does anyone set up their own stratum, and if you do, does anyone use https://github.com/zone117x/node-stratum-pool?

It's hard to figure out what I should do if miners like to use getwork, but it's not implemented in the server software.  Any help please?
