HI fellow miners, anyone know how to use bfgminer to solo mine with any scrypt wallet? read all the help from google but to no avail, can't connect to my wallet at all, is it bfgminer problem or something else, did all the conf files and all as per google search, i just wanna know is it possibe or anyone have any luck with scrypt coins.

I second this. I have a defcoin server set up, and I'd like to verify if I can solo mine, even if I get nothing.

I have tried this: (in my Start_Moonlander2.bat file):

// Port 1335 is defcoin's RPC port

bfgminer.exe --scrypt --url https://1.2.3.4:1335 --no-getwork --no-stratum --userpass james:702af16f58b01369642719c2ffecf13$9ad3087dc33a066c8e23965596d7f3fc7bab82f40d467f856adfeee4e01e3968 -S MLD:all --set MLD:clock=756

I don't put my coinbase there, because it says it's an invalid coinbase address. It's defcoin not Litecoin. So I enabled wallet in my daemon, and mining rewards presumably go straight to the default wallet.

I have allowed input from me to RPC and server, and it's no stratum so I put that in there, the daemon doesn't support getwork, so I assume it uses getblocktemplate internally to mine. I have specified listen, server, rpcuser, rpcpassword, rpcauth, rpcallowip. I don't know if I have to specify txfee or anything like that.

I'm stuck and nothing seems to work :-/

All I want to do is verify I have set it up correctly and that I can solo mine on it.

This is the output from the console window:

[2018-12-19 20:02:35] Press any key to exit, or BFGMiner will try again in 15s.
[2018-12-19 20:02:51] No servers were found that could be used to get work from.
[2018-12-19 20:02:51] Please check the details from the list below of the servers you have input
[2018-12-19 20:02:51] Most likely you have input the wrong URL, forgotten to add a port, or have not set up workers

Any help please? Is it hopeless if this doesn't support anything other than getwork? My defcoin.conf (identical to bitcoin.conf for options to connect, run as server, mine)? Does anyone have a contrived example if they run a full node and what's in bitcoin.conf or any altcoin.conf to solo mine with?

Or maybe I will try the stratum thing. But it seems like a lot of work for something which should be fairly simple, like connect to server, send credentials, mine the output from the server, submit and see what happens. But then I am no expert... just trying to become a competent user at some time, and run my own defcoin pool later down the road.

Dutch-Mining now offers solo mining, as does ViaLTC, Bsod, and few of the other YIIMP pools. All are 2% fee use m=solo in your password field

Me too, want to solo mining with litecoin.
I think it is a bit stupid to pay for a solo pool, even if it was free, when you must be able to work with your own computer.

My litecoin config is OK, I tested with another software without problems so I think it is a miner bug.
--coinbase-addr & --generte-to return invalid address, when it should work.

PLEASE!
