Cgminer issue

[76grantorino]

I’m using windows 7 to set up 2 newpak miners. I’m at the part where I open cgminer and it’s asking me for the URL. It keeps saying “failed alive testing, reinput details” any idea of what is going on or what I’ve done incorrectly? The user URL, username.worker, and password is correct. I’d love to get this up and running tonight! I’m very excited

Can you share what you've typed in the "user URL" (excluding the username/password)?
Make sure to read your selected pool's proper command for cgminer, it may be different depending on the pool.

Something like this:

Code:

cgminer -o http://POOL-URL:PORT -u usern*** -p passw***

Also, this should be moved to Mining (Altcoin).

Sorry about posting in the wrong place. Let me know how to move it and I will

So after many trial and errors to include watching youtube videos i have realized that im supposed to be putting the url info into a bat file. the cgminer has 2 bat files. i have tried to put onlyt the ulr, username.worker, a made up password into both bat files.
Whats the difference between sinles test mining bat and test mining bat?
ands is the --suggest-diff 128 supposed to stay in between the url and username? im still having trouble getting this up and running
