Miner cannot connect

[amitsaxena-ups]

Hello,

I am using xmr-stak as Miner and have configured as required. but i cannot connect to the pool. getting this error CONNECT error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

I tried to connect to XMRpool.net:5555 from the miner to test the connection and it worked but it doesn't connect to the pool which i have installed. My Pool is on Ubuntu VM hosted on Azure. Do I need to open any specific port or perform any steps ?

yes you need to forward the mining ports on your router in order to be able to connect and mine

We opened required port in Azure Vm but still cant get it connected. This is a result of netstat run on poolserver

netstat -ltunp (Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)

Check if your coin daemon (monerod) is fully synced ?

@bobbieltd , i did the full sync already which took around 3 days.

Is there any setting i need to change in MySQl database or config files. Since I am not able to login by Admin interface depending completely on manual configurations.

@userid2018 Good job ! Syncing without downloading raw blockchain taking 3 days is normal. No admin page = very good UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = '4xx put your wallet here' WHERE module = 'pool' and item = 'address'; UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = '4xx put your another wallet here' WHERE module = 'payout' and item = 'feeAddress'; UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = 'later' WHERE module = 'general' and item = 'mailgunKey'; UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = 'later' WHERE module = 'general' and item = 'mailgunURL'; UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = 'admin@mypool.com' WHERE module = 'general' and item = 'emailFrom'; UPDATE pool.config SET item_value = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/leafApi' WHERE module = 'general' and item = 'shareHost'; pool config.json bindip : 0.0.0.0 hostname : whatevermypool

@bobbieltd

I had these entries already but to make sure I ran update again. still I dont see Port 5555 being listened on when i run netstat -tulnp

@bobbieltd

just noticed once more things that my monroed is running only on 18080 . where do we specify this ?

If I am not mistaken this should also be running on port 18081 as well. i do have entry in pool table

14 daemon port 18081 int Monero Daemon RPC Port

result of netstat -tulnp

[bobbieltd]

18080 is monerod p2p port 18081 is monerod rpc port 18082 is monero wallet rpc port

Coin daemon always uses two port (one for p2p binding 0.0.0.0 and one for rpc binding 127.0.0.1) Wallet daemon uses one port (rpc binding 127.0.0.1)

You don’t need to specify 18080, it is default in monero codes.

Check if monerod is synced with tail -f /home/monerodaemon/.bitmonero/bitmonero.log
