I'm GPU mining GPL (6.5kH/s) and would like to add my CPU on. I tried various miners (on page 11 and 12), and they failed with "Received empty message" or something. When I change the protocol to "stratum+tcp", it immediately exits with "try minerd --help for more information". Could someone help me?
Yeah this is exactly the problem I am having which is why I asked for help with the setup syntax. I can't get any of the miners I have to mine GPL (as per above). I've an old scrypt-jane miner I can solo with, getting good hashrates but no blocks. Nothing will even try to start with the pool.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Are you using windows? If so read on... "How to pool mine GPL"
The information is here in the thread, but I know it's getting to be a big thread now so I have added the information for you here.
download scrypt-jane_gpu.zip
http://rghost.net/48162507Write a batch file as per below. Place it in the same folder as the ybcminer.exe
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
ybcminer --Nfmin 4 --Nfmax 30 --StartT 1377557832
the first time you run the batch file above you will need to manually add the URL (stratum+tcp://gplcoin.com:8888) then the username (user.worker) and then your password. Then it should then start hashing, & you will need to save a config file same as CGminer. While it's running and hashing away by pressing "s" then "w", then enter, enter.
