What's the recommended pool software to use for solo mining nowadays? In the past I used eloipool, but it seems to have been abandoned. ckpool from the maker of cgminer seemed very promising, but altcoins are not officially supported. Knowing ckolivas, I believe that just means he doesn't want to answer the endless stream of questions regarding altcoins, not that the pool would somehow be inherently incompatible with altcoins.

I'm currently trying to mine Bitcore. With eloipool, I get this error in a loop when the pool manages to connect to bitcored RPC:
Code:
2017-12-25 12:50:36,847 merkleMaker     WARNING Template from 'primary' loosely requires unsupported rule 'testdummy'
2017-12-25 12:50:36,852 merkleMaker     CRITICAL        Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/bunnyh/Projects/eloipool/merklemaker.py", line 793, in run
    self.merkleMaker_I()
  File "/home/bunnyh/Projects/eloipool/merklemaker.py", line 783, in merkleMaker_I
    self.merkleMaker_II()
  File "/home/bunnyh/Projects/eloipool/merklemaker.py", line 749, in merkleMaker_II
    return self._updateMerkleTree()
  File "/home/bunnyh/Projects/eloipool/merklemaker.py", line 649, in _updateMerkleTree
    self._updateMerkleTree_I()
  File "/home/bunnyh/Projects/eloipool/merklemaker.py", line 637, in _updateMerkleTree_I
    FirstTemplate = not hasattr(self.curClearMerkleTree, 'MP')
AttributeError: 'merkleMaker' object has no attribute 'curClearMerkleTree'

And with ckpool there are no errors on the pool side, work is being generated but all shares get rejected.

You could just install a typical MPOS pool and restrict access to it so that only your own miners are able to use it. Would probably be easier than trying to monkey with oddball software that might not be well supported.

Many mining software packages also have the ability to connect directly to a wallet RPC and mine using that wallet without a stratum. If you only have one mining rig being connected, this might be the way to go.

Could you give a link to MPOS pool sources? Is it still being maintained?
