I'm getting an "invalid address" error when attempting to solo mine. Coin is GlobalBoost.

BFGMiner 4.4.0, OS X Mavericks w/ Zeus Blizzard.

Cmd line: bfgminer --scrypt -o http://127.0.0.1:port -u user -p pwd --coinbase-addr GYLaG8VgEwHjfLWvYnyCGCzQgMVHMbEo87 -S zus:/dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART

What am I missing ?

Thanks,

You can only use valid bitcoin addresses - alt coin addresses will not work.


If you are pulling from git, you need to run ./autogen.sh before ./configure.

I'm using the binary available here.  Maybe I'll try compiling it.




Sorry, I clicked on the "quote" button of the wrong message.

Your problem has nothing to do with compiling.  You simply cannot use BFGMiner's GBT solo-mining mode to mine alt coins.  The coinbase address HAS to be a BITCOIN address.
