[5/12/11 5:35:26 PM] ERROR: Can't connect to Bitcoin: Bitcoin returned unparsable JSON

Every time my miner ask's I get this error with Diablo, Diablo is 5x faster than my other miner I got working So I need help fguring this out.

Also does Diablo post solves like M0mchil-poclbm does?

Thanks in advance!

I've got the same problem here. Any help/advice would be awesome.

simply put: dont use diablo miner, it is a very problematic miner vs the others, just launching it has bluescreened boxes that went without a hitch for weeks up to the second diablo was launched. speedgains seem to be more of a pr thing and not something that manifests itself in actual mining with independent verification.

But then there's only the RPC one left, as far as I see. And that one is made for CPU processing, which is worse…

Simply saying don't use DiabloMiner is such a lame answer, don't listen to the Diablo haters.  I've found the author to be quite helpful in diagnosing issues over IRC and this software works wonderfully for Mac OS X.

I had this error in the past and noticed it was because of a typo error in my command line arguments. Please paste your command line (redact your login) arguments so we can diagnose.

Thx for your pragmatic attitude . But the problem really might have occurred because of the app itself. i say that bcause i tried another pooled mining server and i had a similar problem, but the output wasn't the same. i mean the error was another but the underlying problem seemed the same.
concerning command lines i jus' enter the the address, then the port, my account name, my pass, thats the procedure, ain't it?

This seems to happen when I have network hiccups, and with all the DDOS attacks many pools have been down off and on. Unless you are solo mining?

I occasionally run Diablo with Eligius on an older Macbook Pro and see the error whenever I hop networks... so this is likely just a result of the app not receiving more work. Not sure if Diablo supports long polling as well.
