SOCKET ERROR - PARSE error: Protocol error 5 #88

Closed Greali closed 7 years ago

Greali commented 7 years ago

Hi!

I don't know if it's ok to ask here this but I'm trying to connect to Slush Pool using this miner and I'm getting the same error again and again SOCKET ERROR - PARSE error: Protocol error 5. For example, I can connect to the pool Nicehash without problems. I tried with no tls version of the miner too. The error doesn't depend on the Username you putted in. If you leave it "" the error is the same.

Log: [2017-04-27 11:18:00] : Starting single thread, affinity: 0. [2017-04-27 11:18:00] : Starting single thread, affinity: 1. [2017-04-27 11:18:00] : Connecting to pool eu.zec.slushpool.com:4444 ...

Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks

Close this please. I've noticed I was trying to mine Zcash with this and I think is for Monero coins only because the algo CryptoNight. https://www.nicehash.com/?p=news&id=99

closed, slush is a bitcoin and zcoin pool. This miner is for monero (xmr) only.
