Proxy with Cgminer: Difficulty is Zero and HW Errors #45

Closed kensmithjr closed 10 years ago

kensmithjr commented 10 years ago

When I connect cgminer to the proxy, the difficulty stays at zero and there are many hardware errors. Also the hash rate is reported as in the GH/s range when it's really in the KH/s range.

invalid nonce count - HW error

I tried both getwork and stratum proxy with the same result.

cgminer multiminer

This is a bug in cgminer, not bfgminer or MultiMiner. Use a version of cgminer newer than 3.9 for this to be fixed.

Because mining software doesn't support CPUs out of the box. That is abused by malware authors.

No, recent versions of BitMinter also removed CPU mining.

Additionally CPU mining may work, but it is worthless at this point. If you are getting, say, 25 Kh/s from your CPU mining LTC, and you pay $0.10 in electricity, you are losing money mining with your CPU.

No other miners support CPU mining. That includes BitMinter.

CPU mining is abused by malware and virus authors, so miner authors do not make it available.

I linked to instructions above on how to compile in support yourself if needed.
