With version 1.4.0 and 1.4.1, I have some trouble connecting to the rpc server.
cgminer exists with code:
No pools active! Exiting.
I tried it several times with the same starting parameters:
./cgminer -o
http://uswest.btcguild.com:8332 -u myusername -p mypassword -w 256 -I 8 --verbose
and got only 1 connect where only the first gpu was starting to work.
I tested 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 precompiled version for ubuntu with the same behavior.
Version 1.3.1 is working fine.
Got 14.42 shares per minute
with
2 * 5850 @ 900,300
1 * 5850 @ 820,300
I have this exact same issue, I am able to connect to my local bitcoind with guiminer just fine.
Same settings in cgminer and I get "No pools active! Exiting."
I tested locally after I was unable to connect to deepbit with the same error message "No pools active! Exiting."
I do not get the same results with prior version. I just dl and
compiled 1.3.1 and it does not connect just the same as latest git:
# cgminer -o
http://192.168.1.53:8362 -u test -p x
No pools active! Exiting.
furthermore the following command in 1.3.1 results in a dump:
# ./cgminer -o
http://192.168.1.53:8362 -u test -p x
Segmentation fault
whereas under the latest git
# ./cgminer -o
http://192.168.1.53:8362 -u test -p x
results in:
No pools active! Exiting.
-----------------
but when I log into the head on the machine it seems to run fine.
can this be run remotely?
