For those of you who are still struggling with solo mining, here is copy and paste instruction for Windows.
1. Download and install CGMiner
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.02. Open Notepad and save it as chncoin.conf file inside this folder:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\CHNCoin
paste these codes inside the chncoin.conf file and save it:
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=AnyRandomUserNameYouWant
rpcpassword=AnyRandomPasswordYouWant
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcallowip=192.168.2.*
rpcport=8108
port=8106
3.Go to the folder where you installed CHNcoin-qt client (lets assume you installed it to default "Program Files"), find the CHNCoin-qt.exe file and right click to create a shortcut to Desktop
Now go to your desktop, right click on the shortcut you just created, then choose Properties.
Under "Shortcut" tab, navigate to "Target" field and add this text " -server" - it shall look like this:
"C:\Program Files\CHNCoin\CHNCoin-qt.exe" -server
Click Ok.
4. On your Desktop, Open Notepad again and save a new file called SoloMine.bat (make sure it's .bat file, not ending with .txt => choose "All files" during save).
inside your SoloMine.bat file paste this code:
"C:\Program Files\cgminer\cgminer.exe" --scrypt -o localhost:8108
-u AnyRandomUserNameYouWant -p AnyRandomPasswordYouWant
--thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13 -g 2 -w 256 -s 1 -E 5
--gpu-reorder --gpu-engine 1050 --gpu-memclock 1500
Above code assumes you installed CGMiner on Program Files - change this if you have a different path.
The last line of code is configuration for your graphic card, mine is AMD 7970.
=======
TO START MINING:
a) double-click the desktop icon for CHNCoin-qt (created in step 3) - wait for it to get full block chain updated.
b) double-click the SoloMine.bat file (created in step 4) to Launch Mining!
Enjoy and good luck!
Quoting this amazing guide one more time since people keep asking how to mine it instead of reading the thread.
1) get chinacoin client, open it once so it creates its appfolder files, close it again.
2) Set up the config file in the appdata folder, like every guide tells you
3) open your client up with the -server parameter again (it has to either say server=1 in the config file or you fire it up over cmd or shortcut with -server behind the path)
4) point your miner to the data that you entered in the config file.
What miner you use is basically up to you, just keep in mind that guiminer does not require you to enter http:// like cgminer does.
If it does not work, try port 8106, 8108, 8844 (meaning that you change it in the config file and also connect to it).
