Compile cudaMiner on Mac OS X 10.8.3

[paoui]

Hey folks, I'm trying to compile cudaMiner 17.04.2013 on a Mac equiped with a 8800GT under 10.8.3: Upon make I get the following errors:

make  all-recursive
Making all in compat
Making all in jansson
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'.
/usr/local/cuda/bin/nvcc -m32 -O3 -arch=compute_10 --maxrregcount=124 --ptxas-options=-v -I./compat/jansson -o salsa_kernel.o -c salsa_kernel.cu
/usr/local/include/curl/curlrules.h(143): error: the size of an array must be greater than zero

/usr/local/include/curl/curlrules.h(153): error: the size of an array must be greater than zero

2 errors detected in the compilation of "/tmp/tmpxft_00001cef_00000000-6_salsa_kernel.cpp1.ii".
make[2]: *** [salsa_kernel.o] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas, suggestions?

it was, he will waste his time mining on a mac, and probably overheat the crap out of his 2grand brick

Actually it's not a native Mac, I'm mining litecoins and it's just out of technical curiosity. My main mining rig uses ATI cards with cgminer.

But nevertheless I solved the problem. curl was linking against the wrong library...

Hi, I'd like to compile cudaMiner as well, can you help me do it? can you post a walk-through?

Thanks

Me too ... any guidance appreciated for it on OSX!

Thanks

Hello All,

I have compiled versions of CudaMiner for OS X 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 on my site: http://www.johnchapman.net/cudaminer

There are detailed instructions on how to setup your Mac for mining with CudaMiner.
