Retrieve daemon address and port for solo mining after changing it for pool mining #7

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

I was solo mining with no issues, using the default daemon address and port that was preloaded in the GUI. However I tried a mining pool and entered the daemon address and port and removed the defaults. I've decided to go back to solo mining instead but I don't know the the default daemon address (hostname/IP) and port.

Hi, It sounds like you were using the GUI wallet to mine. The GUI miner doesn't have an option to solo mine, it only works with pool mining.

Here's some screenshots, when I ran the scipt to open it the very first time after installing, the Hostname/IP and Port field were prepopulated. I then ran the started the daemon and clicked on start mining and it was working. I kept an eye on the hash rates shown in terminal and it was connected and mining. Unless I am missing something??

Solved:

Daemon Address: Hostname / IP = localhost

That is indeed the GUI wallet and not GUI miner, but I'm glad you have it working again.
