Ah, of course. Fixed with
INSERT INTO pool_worker
(username, password) VALUES('mikes', 'waffleman' )
Next up: 500 error on pushpoold.
Sorry to be such a damned bother to you, you'll be getting some Bitcoins soon!
I have this in my ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf:
rpcuser=mikes
rpcpassword=waffles
rpcport=8332
and run it with "./bitcoin-0.3.21/bin/64/bitcoind -daemon -gen=0". I of course have the right rpc details in server.json and memcached is running. Going to bed now, but I'll surely be back in the morning with more problems. Sorry!
