Re: [ANN][MRO] Monero - a coin with strong privacy based on CryptoNote technology
"Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon (http://localhost:18081). Daemon either is not started or passed wrong port.
Please, make sure that daemon is running or restart the wallet with correct daemon address."
Still get this error.
The daemon is running, synced with the network, and is according to its own log listening on its default port (log: "Core rpc server initialized OK on port: 18081").
There's no local firewall, and I also started the daemon and wallet with a different port number just to make sure no one else uses this port.
A telnet to localhost on port 18081 works, so someone is listening.
The Windows build seems kinda buggy...

Do not start daemon/wallet on different port.
Reboot computer. Start bitmonerod from command line. Let sync. "important to let finish syncing" start wallet from command line and type start_mining from within wallet.
I know it more complicated than other coin for now. Devs are working on GUI to make simple and easy from Windows. It's new coin working out issues like any other. It is different from other coins. Issues will be resolved in short time. Give try and inform on status. Happy mining
Edit:
After bitmonerod sync, type "save" in window to write blockchain to hard drive. When closing bitmonerod type exit in window to write latest block information to hard drive. Does not write autmatically. It is important to wait until bitmonerod sync before start mining. You will see message like:
You are now synchronized with the network. You may now start simplewallet.
Please note, that the blockchain will be saved only after you quit the daemon wi
th "exit" command or if you use "save" command.
Otherwise, you will possibly need to synchronize the blockchain again.
Then ready to mine. Let know if this fixes issue.
