Title: Having some issues with cpuminer Post by: BlackHatCoiner on April 03, 2021, 05:27:49 PM Hi, I'm a newbie at mining, I have never mined any coins or helped a pool with my computational power, I just know the basics of how mining works. Some months ago I forked bitcoin core and wrote a guide of how to do it too (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5309100.msg56085433#msg56085433), because I find it really interesting when you implement an idea (that can be implemented). Although, the action is far from the theory. I found a lot of difficulties on my way.
I've solved some blocks on my forked Bitcoin Core, but I want to switch to cpuminer, since it's better to compute on the command line than on a UI. This is what I execute: Code: minerd --user rpcuser --pass 111111 --url http://127.0.0.1:8333/ --threads 4 --coinbase-addr 3B9dSAqGNSyPasdSrwbJZ2rLSgPmyt8bQQ --coinbase-sig "my test coins" -a sha256d -D And this is what I get: It has returned other errors on my forked Bitcoin Core, but I've ran it, above, on pruned Bitcoin Core (that follows the original bitcoin chain) and right now I get this. What am I doing wrong?

Edit: Nevermind I had to set rpcport=8332 on the config file. |
