Hey!
I have created a bitcoin 0.10.4 version private network with a brand new genesis block. I have setup 2 virtual machines that are connected to eachother and want to use the integrated miner to mine the difficulty 1 main net.
Heres the thing; I have succeeded doing this in the testnet, the network is going on block 13 and i can verify that the network is hashing with (./bitcoin-cli -testnet getmininginfo). I cannot for some reason do this with the mainnet, it says that bitcoinminer has started but no hashing starts.. This is just for a school project, last thing that i need to get it working. Any help is appreciated (Might tip the guy who solves this for me!).
Heres the bitcoin.conf for both machines:
PC1
gen=1
listen=1
server=1
rpcuser=foo
rpcpassword=bar
rpcallowip=207.242.196.190
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8332
PC2
gen=1
rpcuser=foo
rpcpassword=bar
connect=207.243.197.55
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=207.243.197.55
rpcport=8332
I am using debian jessie as the base os, any advice on how to go about this? Heres what is in the debug.log when i start bitcoind:
