[ANN] Slimcoin : Proof of Burn NEW BLOCK GEN, Mineable by low power computer!

[TheRealSteve]

I have every package listed in the post, but still the same error. I must be missing something, or I don't know... I also have windows 7 x64. Should I try compiling for x86?

Can you share your /var/log/setup.log file?

Can I mine with miner directly to daemon from several machines?

In theory yes. Although, its not working with the current release.

slimcoin probably did this intentionally to help prevent and limit the effectiveness of botnets at launch.

Slimcoin is built from an original release of Peercoin and has some 'missing' functions. A working pool will have a patch, so it will eventually be possible.

Updated slimminer pushed for pooled mining just pushed on Github here: https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer

This can be done with slimminer, you just have to set in the config the url and on the daemon allow -rpcallowip= the ip's you are mining from.

Don't seem to be able to get it to work on windows localhost even with the daemon running.

Hi! Here's the setup.log!

Yep. Its still not working.

I was seeing accepted shares from sandor111's temporary pool the other day, so its not slimminer.

Let me check all of my settings - think the code is missing something - might be me being daft though.

Can anyone confirm that finding blocks with slimminer works? I have set up like the OP told but never find any block (one PC with daemon as host and 20 machines with slimminer as client. slimminer shows hashrate in every computer. solomining with 90khs for 2 days and can't even find one block.)
I change to solomine with the daemon only (with gen=0) and only 3 machines (around 12khs in total). Found 5 blocks in 2 days already.

Yeah exactly I thought like BitcoinFX. slimminer works because the pool accepted my shares, but the daemon never accepts any share from slimminer.

Well, wherever the problem is, at least it doesn't appear to be in there - matches up with mine.

[BitcoinFX]

No. Did you delete the slimminer folder C: > cygwin64 > home > 'account name' > slimminer  ?

Try doing that and start again in case something got borked.

Somethings certainly not right there then. I've only being mining with the wallet thus far - apart from a few hours test in the temporary pool.

Again, I did see accepted shares with the slimminer in the temporary pool.

~ Are you mining via linux machines only ?

Yeah exactly I thought like BitcoinFX. slimminer works because the pool accepted my shares, but the daemon never accepts any share from slimminer.

I can confirm, that the Slimminer finds valid blocks when solo mining. I found 4 so far on my desktop-PC (with ~1.6KH) and even one with an ARM version of slimminer (0.22kh).
Today I found 2 Blocks with slimminer on the desktop PC, the seconds block around 5h after the first one. I think it's all about luck.

just make sure it's really using dcrypt (I had one instance mining with scrypt by accident, because I also had an old version of minerd in /usr/bin -.-)

Yeah I'm mining with the daemon, technically. My shares in the temporary pool get accepted too, but the daemon never accepts slimminer shares even from the same machine. I'm using linux in all machines.

Sliminer on windows and/or linux ? or mac ?

I've seen this too, between two Linux machines, one running the daemon and one running slimminer. Looking at the output of "netstat -a", each machine ends up with a bunch of connections to the other machine in the TIME_WAIT state. So I wonder if something's wrong with the RPC listener.

The tricky part is that neither side shows an error message, and slimminer looks like it's mining, but of course there's no traffic going over those TIME_WAIT connections.

ltcnim has Windows and he compiles slimminer from source himself like us. I think the reason lies in the daemon/wallet. Or the worst case, in the different between Linux and Windows. But I never heard of such case.  
ltcnim where did you get the wallet ? Did you compile yourself or get the pre-compiled binary?

Btw ltcnim, we are not stupid like mistaking the hashing algo and going complaining about not working here . Of course we make sure that we didn't do anything wrong on our side.

Exactly what I'm thinking, but I don't have time to look at the source code and neither have the skill to fix it. I reported about it 2,3 days ago but nobody cares. Nice that someone notices that too.
Thanks for your details information.

With a quick glance through the pastebin it seems that your missing gcc and automake packages.

See: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=613213.msg7133359#msg7133359

Are you sure that you installed these extra packages from Search Packages during the Cygwin install ?

Yes, look:

Could it be something external? I mean, I have installed some other things that I use to compile videogames I create.
