Hello,

Whenever I try to mine on Eligius or solo using GUIMiner, I get these errors:

[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
IO errors - 2, tolerance 2
[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
IO errors - 3, tolerance 2
No more backup servers left. Using primary and starting over.

These all repeat constantly. I read somewhere that you have to press the "Launch Bitcoin client as server" setting, however this does not work as I do not use the core Bitcoin client. I use MultiBit HD. Am I missing something? Must I use the core client to mine?

Thanks.
