Can anybody help?

Cheers

Mining for most coins is fairly much the same, so your problem doesn't appear to be specific to Emercoin.

Did you just put -u MyUser.1 -p MyPassword or did you actually set up a worker on the pool website first and put your worker's name and pass when you start cgminer?

I have not used the pool.emercoin.com, but perhaps you need to set up a "worker" on that pool, then the name and password for the worker that you set up.

If that isn't the problem, and you're new to mining, then I'd suggest trying to mine solo to confirm things are working before directing your hash power to a pool.

Hoping a more experienced user will answer, if you can't solve your issue soon.

I think Emercoin is a good one to mine, especially if you are new Smiley



Hi MessyCoin and thanks for your reply.  Smiley

I have a worker already set up in pool.emercoin.com.

In cgminer in I put the url = pool.emercoin.com and in the user field  - my username and the pool.emercoin.com password in the password field.

Perhaps I should try with your suggestion of putting my worker name and password instead....(as you suggest)

Anyway, I will try it and see if it works.

Am I right in assuming that port 3333 is the only port I can use with pool.emercoin.com?

Thanks again
