Help needed using guide to get mining and running.

in mining •  8 years ago 

I am using the current guide over at https://steemit.com/steem/@bitcube/steem-mining-in-microsoft-windows-a-miner-s-guide-part-2

I have followed everything in the guide however I am still getting no start I got the 3 keys needed added into conf file also started restarted server block chain does not download also imported most current one and still does not update.

Following errors I have

Indicate that you have the miners section configured but not the witness section. You need this line in your config file:
witness = "crazyearnerminer"

Hope this helps...

I'm assuming your config file has an actual miner key instead of "xxxx". Good job remembering to redact it.

Yes it has miner key in it and everything in witness section too

Now getting
3180945ms th_a witness.cpp:430 on_applied_block ] hash rate: 1 hps target: 28 queue: 98 estimated time to produce: 4473924 minutes

However been like this for last 2 hours

any way to fix tried stopping restarting and getting hardfork and updating etc and then still doing same as above.

Removed some p2p nodes from config.ini, the prob seems to be gone. However the blockchain still seems to be out of date.
