Title: BFGMiner CGminer bitcore I have 2 problems please help
Post by: david739 on December 31, 2021, 09:31:43 AM

 when I create a wallet for bitcoincore it looks like "bc1qfe8y4q9lcmqakem98v5uvezs97gmhd820csvpg" and bfg miner doesn't take it from me how I can do it to take it or it is possible to create a standard wallet on bitcoincore


and when I enter in bfg it writes to me (No servers were found that could be used to get work from) but bit config I have settings according to the video tutorial and it works for him

bit config

server=1
rpcuser=testuser
rpcpassword=testpass
rpcallowip=192.168.0.0/24
rpcport=8332


./bfgminer -o http://localhost:8332 -u testuser -p testpass --generate-to 3KcvE7hcqTAGyEbZxtn5swfqbr7TZVe7WT --stratum-port 3333

./bfgminer -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -u testuser- testpassword --generate-to 3KcvE7hcqTAGyEbZxtn5swfqbr7TZVe7WT --stratum-port 3333

The first thing I see is that the password parameter is incorrect, it should be

./bfgminer -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -u testuser -p testpassword  --generate-to 3KcvE7hcqTAGyEbZxtn5swfqbr7TZVe7WT --stratum-port 3333

(I may be wrong, but I'm not sure you need the stratum parameter either)


See in the readme page:

bfgminer -o http://localhost:8332 -u username -p password \
    --generate-to 1QATWksNFGeUJCWBrN4g6hGM178Lovm7Wh \
    --coinbase-sig "rig1: This is Joe's block!"
