Can someone help me with the python miner?

I followed the instructions and now I get this when running it.

I have the same problem.
I installed Python 2.7 and all the packages on 4 PC's
2 work fine, 2 don't work and return the same error as above.
I'm running W10 on all machines.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Pyton2.7 , no success. I installed Pyton3.6, it won't work.

Are we the only ones who ran into this problem?

I have the same problem too. Still don't know how to fix it. So, I use the other option.
Windows 10 has Unix subsystem shell.

You can install Unix shell from this guide https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide

Then install the miner on Linux shell from http://bismuth.acc-pool.pw


Code:


3. Install dependencies

* sudo apt-get install python-twisted
* sudo apt-get install python-pip
* sudo apt-get install python-pip --fix-missing
* sudo apt-get install python-socks
* sudo apt-get install unzip

4. Download miner zip file

wget "https://www.dropbox.com/s/reeg9btnylndwrj/MinerV3.zip?dl=0"

5. Unzip Miner file

* unzip MinerV3.zip?dl=0

6. CD into miner file

* cd MinerV3

7. Create text file to use for launching miner

* touch startminer.bash

8. Edit startminer.bash for your address, worker name and threads

* nano startminer.bash
startminer.bash default text example to put in startminer.bash file
./miner bismuthaddress rigname
Replace bismuthaddress with your address (see 11.)

9. chmod files to be executable

* chmod +x startminer.bash
* chmod +x miner

9 1/2.

* tmux ( If not installed run * sudo apt-get install tmux )
Then run:
./startminer.bash
Then press ctr + b + d. You can then close the SSH session and the miner will keep running.
On reconnect to reopen to terminal window with the miner running use this command.
* tmux attach

10. start miner using the startminer.bash file (If you used tmux for vps then no need to do this command again. Ignore 9 1/2 if installing to mine on a local machine)

* ./startminer.bash

11. Link for node and wallet github or use the online wallet made by euroline acc-pool
