2) cgminer -o http:api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -USERNAME -p PASSWORD

Isn't Port 8332 the getwork port?  I'm not familiar with your pool but that is usually the case.  Verify what the Stratum port is, usually Port 3333, and try that.

Run your own GPU/FPGA/ASIC miner with the worker credentials you gave earlier, and connect it to following URL:

http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332
(Main pool URL)

From my pool. Yesterday it worked just perfect! Should i type full path to .exe or just cgminer.exe at start?

1) path to .exe -o http:api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -USERNAME -p PASSWORD
2) cgminer -o http:api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -USERNAME -p PASSWORD

Code:

cgminer.exe -o api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD

I always start CGMiner in the current, CGMiner, directory.  I've never put a thought into setting path statements for it.  But it does need access to the other files in it's directory.

It loads the cgminer.conf from the current directory (in windows)

I've tried that too and it doesn't work. When i try to use guiminer then it's fine but i got ~250Mh/s instead of ~355Mh/s with cgminer :/

i do not understand how to run cgminer.c in the terminal. i get permission denied and when checked to run as executing file as program then i get a bunch of errors including "syntax error near unexpected token" and "adl.c command not found"

i cd to the dir and ./cgminer

how am i suppose to run this?

Up and mining on 2.11.4 windows. Seems to be working great, thanks, ckolivas.

What's that mean? I know it start with a 1, but is this his Litecoin or Bitcoin donation address?

I would point out in your image CGMiner is already running. Its asking for a pool. No need for cgminer.exe at that prompt. Can use "stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333" without quotes at least if there isn't a second server or a redirect. (wrong of me)> 2nd I don't know bitcoin.cz so this may be off but usually api is only for the API like how you get stats and remote view things not for getting work.

Once you get it back running again and the instructions above should get you very close if not running. Do the following Press "s" then when settings menu comes up (assuming you are using curses) then Press "w" no need for the quotes they just set it off from other text then "Enter". This will write a config file. It will have your pool and credentials in it. It will load everytime cgminer starts. This should get you up and running quickly and easily for the long term.

Turns out slush's pool does use api for getwork. So what you had before http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332 would work if you do the following.
At the first one after no pool found put in http://api.bitcoin.cz:8332
next prompt: your user name
Next prompt: your password

As stratum is more efficient and less likely to have rejects it would likely be a far better idea since your pool supports statum and so does cgminer to use stratum. Your rejects will likely drop to 10% of what they where or lower. As an examle 1% rejects getwork is likely under .1% rejects on stratum.

cgminer.exe -o api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD

I've tried that too and it doesn't work. When i try to use guiminer then it's fine but i got ~250Mh/s instead of ~355Mh/s with cgminer :/

Ok, do this:
run cgminer.exe
in url type
api.bitcoin.cz:8332
then user and pass in ext boxes
...
WHY you put "cgminer.exe -o api.bitcoin.cz:8332 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD" into URL???

Start cgminer @ the First prompt use this...Copy/paste the following line,you don't need the Http

stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333

Use the Above line because Slush is trying to get rid of the old get work protocol.

Default mining URL for Stratum is stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333. If you're still using api.bitcoin.cz, please fix your URL to prevent fallback to deprecated Getwork protocol.

Then your Username....make sure you add the .1 for your Worker # (check web page for exact name)
Then your Password....Both Worker name and Password are on the Web page for Slush.

Once running save the File {s} [w]..the default name is fine  [cgminer.conf]

You can open that file with notepad to Edit it, helps to get to know the Program. I use Slush pool and Only Cgminer, tried them all and this is the Fastest!!

Bitcoin Addys start with a "1"
Lightcoin Addys start with a  "L"

oic. never knew of this, gotcha. Thanks.

There is a README file in the directory that you need to read.  You have much to learn young grasshoppa.

[Viceroy]

Here's one I haven't seen before:

Code:

./cgminer -n
Setting of real/effective user Id to 0/0 failed
FATAL: Module fglrx not found.
Error! Fail to load fglrx kernel module! Maybe you can switch to root user to load kernel module directly
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  136 ()
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19
  Serial number of failed request:  12
  Current serial number in output stream:  12

Remember this is AFTER seeing:

Code:

Configuration Options Summary:

  curses.TUI...........: FOUND: -lncurses
  OpenCL...............: FOUND. GPU mining support enabled

Hello, right now i have 2 7950 & 1 6670 that i plan on using on desktop, but when mining, even with difficulty "d" on the 6670, it still gets full speed clocks and starts mining even thou at 10khs. So my question is how can i disable the 6670 (gpu2) from mining completely..??

Thanks

Put -d 2 in your command line arguments.
