Ok got a miner downloaded. When I click the executable I get json rpc call failed. I try to use a command line like I did for xpm and it doesnt recognize minerd. Heres the line I am trying
C:\minerd.exe -a quark -t 8 -o
http://qrk.coinmine.pl:6010 -u xxx -p xxx
Can someone help me here. I am an almost total noob to mining but would like to learn. Thanks!
Check your quarkcoin.conf file contents.
Here is mine:
listen=1
maxconnections=80
gen=1
genproclimit=-1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=xpasswordx
rpcallowip=url
rpcport=6010
setgenerate true=-1
server=1
daemon=1
Make sure the username and password match your username and password when running the cpuminer command line.
Also, is your minerd.exe sitting in the C:\ root directory? You may need to update the path to minerd.exe.
Edited:
you need stratum+tcp://qrk.coinmine.pl:6010 instead of
http://qrk.coinmine.pl:6010 in your command line.
