Hi all I am new here trying to set up for solo mining on a ubuntu machine Eth only. I have the blockchain downloaded and geth running I have set the address in start.bash to 127.0.0.1:8545 I have tried 192.168.1.13:8545 , localhost:8545 but I keep gettimng "ETH: Failed to connect to pool (127.0.0.1:8545), retry in 20 sec...
GPU0 t=44C fan=24%, GPU1 t=45C fan=25%
What am I doing wrong I have read the read me 100 times.
Here is my ./start.bash ./ethdcrminer64 -epool
http://127.0.0.1:8545 -ewal 1c0b92f3aef254a2c122713a8e8a34eb2a760c77 -mode 1
It works ok with the default pool but I would like to solo. It reads the graphics catds OK and I have the right drivers.
OK it is working now the problem was how I was running geth. all good now
