Well i don't know why but when i first ran it and used "Slush's pool" i was getting plenty accepted quite often and then i stop after an hour or so of running.
The next day i tried running it again and i ran it for over 5 hours and didnt get a single accepted or stale.

Can anyone help me with this and explain why it's doing this?

I've tried another pool too and it's doing the same thing.

I don't believe i did save the settings.
But all it ask is for username//pass
I'm new to bitcoin though that's why i came here for help.

I did the exact same thing now as i did the first time i used it, except this time it's not working, tried the same thing on my laptop but it didnt work either.

Do i have too have something in "Extra Flags"?

This is what the console is saying:
2013-09-22 15:46:33: Running command: poclbm.exe Rslyfe.worker1:K4AkJyG2@api2.bitcoin.cz:8332 --device=0 --platform=0 --verbose -r1

Yes, this is right and should work. I'm using GUIminer this way too.

But according to the console log by OP (quoted below), the miner is diverted to the correct address/port/protocol.
Difficulty is set to the default value first, and after a while reset to 1 according to the frequency of shares obtained. This looks like everything works OK. Then it's not clear why the listener shuts down after a minute. Or has it been shut down manually?

You can pass information using command line.

I'm using an asic usb miner and also mining on slush's, so I use this command line to start mining :

cgminer-nogpu.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u user -p pwd

If you mine using your cpu or graphic card, run

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u bouc.worker1 -p BoucPi123

edit : whoops these informations are for mining using cgminer... of course  Wink

im running off the assumption that the miner is trying to send getwork requests to a stratum pool.... and that the pool is then waiting for the stratum request and ignoring the getwork ones as slush disabled it

I'm guessing it's not reading my GPU?
Then again did the same thing with my CPU and also doesn't work on my laptop either, this is why im confused..

According to the log in your post #4, everything works OK, even with the default setting it redirects to stratum and sets the difficulty succesfully. So what's your problem?

Has the problem solved in some way?

The log in your post #4 says everything works OK, post #9 says it doesn't work... What has been the difference in your setup?
