Trying to use this tool but it refuses to start. it keeps telling me to enable the Remote Web Server but it is running. I click the link in the port area and it shows it in a browser. I forwarded the port to the correct PC.
Not sure what else this thing wants. It says HardwareMonitor log file does not exist.
Anyone else have this issue?
That happened to me a few times earlier this evening as well and just now. I had switched to EWBF miner and Minerstat gave a bunch of errors as you describe. I stopped and restarted and they eventually cleared up. (this is not typical) Which miner were you trying to use? Did the miner start mining or not even start at all? For me EWBF continued to run just fine in the background just the Minerstat node stopped sending updates to the dashboard.
BTW: You don't need to forward any ports. The web server and mport is simply used to bridge between the node software and the miner software for status and updates. Nothing to do with internet.
