Title: [HELP] Mining a Genesis block [Reward] Post by: _echelon on August 02, 2014, 04:51:11 AM I can't seem to mine a genesis block on my linux daemon. I have inputted the merkle hash, and recompiled twice, but I can's seem to get a single hash in the debug.log
Any help is welcome. If someone points me in the right direction, there might be a reward(BTC). -Echelon Title: Re: [HELP] Mining a Genesis block [Reward] Post by: YarkoL on August 02, 2014, 07:49:21 AM Do you have the code portion that prints out the block info? Is there anything at all in debug.log?

I've been using that guide. Thanks though. Title: Re: [HELP] Mining a Genesis block [Reward] Post by: PereguineBerty on August 02, 2014, 06:20:52 PM Are you setting this statement to true?
Code: if (false && (block.GetHash() != hashGenesisBlock)) There is a section of code deliberately missing from main.cpp on a lot of coins to prevent people from trying to generate a genesis block. See this page to get an idea from Litecoin's example: https://gist.github.com/dmikey/8359944. This can be applied very easily to other algo coins. If you're using X11/X13/X15 etc the guide you're using is rather outdated and once the genesis block has been created, it happens instantly so don't expect to wait a while for the machine to churn out a load of spam in the debug.log file, like it used to. The genesis block is easily overlooked if you are expecting something else to happen. |
