Hi guys I am mining bitcoins and want to solo mine name coin however when I get it up and running I have noticed that the GUIMiner shows me shares accepted when solo mining but in the command line I get no shares accepted.
I am use poclbm with all my settings for deepbit mining switch over to localhost and port 8336 and the user name and password changed but that's it. I can see it hashing but no shares accepted.
I am sure its some secret setting in the minor that's not documented like the bitcoin.conf file.
Using the guiminer and using the same settings I get shares accepted what GIVES!
Thanks
Davinci
I want to see shares accepted 1 BTC reward to the person helps me fix this.

Re: Solo Mining Namecoin No Shares Accepted!
To solo mine, you must add "server=1" in your bitcoin/namecoin config file.
When pool mining, difficulty is set to 1, so you send a lot of shares, that are used to count your participation. Only one among XXXXXXXX will be valid to create a new block.
When solo mining, difficulty is the real value, so, there is no share, but only the valid solutions for a new block.
I'm not sure to respond to your problem....

Anyhow it's real simple my problem I am scared that my mining efforts are not working.
When I mind deep bit I see this...
Code: Select all
deepbit.net:8332 07/07/2011 16:29:08, cbe74e5b, accepted
deepbit.net:8332 07/07/2011 16:30:12, ddf3745b, accepted
deepbit.net:8332 07/07/2011 16:30:26, 53e2aeff, accepted
deepbit.net8332 228004 khash/s
When I mine on my server running with the right settings you suggested I see this...
Code: Select all
server:8336 22004 khash/s
scary if you ask me is that correct when solo mining?
If you say yes then why does the GUIMiner show shares accepted when I do the same thing in the gui front end?
Thanks in advance

Re: Solo Mining Namecoin No Shares Accepted!
What you see is normal. You see lots of 'accepted' with DeepBit because they are difficulty 1 shares that DeepBit is providing. GUIMiner shows shares accepted because it acts like a mini-pool and counts difficulty 1 shares. You don't see anything from your actual mining client because it's operating on full difficulty shares and it'll take a while (depending on hash rate) to find one.Davincij15 wrote:scary if you ask me is that correct when solo mining?

This solo mining sucks rocks I have 3 GHashs thrown at it since 3 pm yesterday its been 16 hours and no blocks found. That ain't right.
Re: Solo Mining Namecoin No Shares Accepted!
Probability Time
Average 22 hours, 13 minutes
50% 15 hours, 24 minutes
95% 2 days, 18 hours, 34 minutes
That's for 3 ghash at the current difficulty.

Re: Solo Mining Namecoin No Shares Accepted!
Thanks but I gave up can't tell if it's working or not and how much I am hashing against my solo server so I makes no sense to continue on a hope and luck.tysat wrote:Probability Time

So is there a way to tell at least how much my total hash rate is on my namecoind?

You can install your own pushpoold https://github.com/jgarzik/pushpool. That give you a personal mini pool. Pushpoold is used by many pools and gives you difficulty 1 shares by default. With this configuration you have the same behaviour like on "big" pools on your local namecoind.
