Title: API for CGMiner Post by: tuckertz1992 on July 22, 2013, 07:07:29 PM Struggling to get it to work, anyone got an example .bat file or .conf file with API enabled? :'(
Title: Re: API for CGMiner Post by: milone on July 22, 2013, 07:24:46 PM Assuming you're trying to access the miner from the same computer and want full API privileges, the command line arguments would be:
Code: --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1 If using a config file, add these two lines: Code: "api-listen" : true, You may need to add a comma at the end depending on where in your config file you place it. If you're trying to access the miner from a different computer, give more info and I'll try to help.

1.) Enable the API in cgminer and set it to allow connections from your web server's IP address. 2.) If you're mining computer is connected to a router, forward the port cgminer's API is using (default is 4028) to your mining computer. http://portforward.com has a lot of helpful information on how to do this and a free utility to check if the port is forwarded correctly. 3.) Set your mining computer's public IP address in that monitor page's PHP. I don't use that monitor but I'd imagine the IP is either hard-coded or is displayed in a textbox. That page on your web server is what is connecting to cgminer, so you have to make sure it can connect to your mining computer and to cgminer. If your mining computer's public IP address changes, you'll need to update the PHP with the new IP address.
