Garlicoin and GPU solo mining

in garlicoin •  7 years ago  (edited)

If you are trying to solo mine the new Garlicoin cyptocurrency with the Nvidia GPU you may run across a network issues.

Following the instructions here to setup a wallet on Windows:
https://pandawanfr.github.io/GarlicRecipes/wallet-win.html

Your wallet will be listening on port 42068

When you go to setup your Nvidia solo miner with the instructions here:
https://pandawanfr.github.io/GarlicRecipes/mining-win-nvidia.html
IN Step 2 the instructions will have you try and connect to port 42070
-o 127.0.0.1:42070

Which when you go to run "Run-Miner-Solo-Nvidia.bat" you will get an error similar to to this:
HTTP request failed: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 42070: Connection refused

The solution is to update your "Run-Miner-Solo-Nvidia.bat" file to correct the port of your wallet.

Change
-o 127.0.0.1:42070
to
-o 127.0.0.1:42068

If you still get that error, make sure you command line wallet is running (garlicoind) per here:
https://pandawanfr.github.io/GarlicRecipes/wallet-win.html

UPDATE: Garlic Recipes have updated their instructions to use port 42068.

So, if you are having this problem, most likely your command line wallet is not running.
