RE: Attempted Steem mining

in #steemmining9 years ago

Congrats again. It looks like we've had a similar weekend :)

I tried to put up a miner on a VM. I installed Ubuntu then steemd. Everything looks OK except that it's not working :(

All I get is:

Started witness node on a chain with 0 blocks.

And it's not moving anywhere.

I've tried both without blockchain and with yesterday's download. The same result.
I guess I'll make a separate post to lament about it and ask for some help...

Sort:  

Did you follow the same guide post? Did you add the seed nodes to the config?.

I don't understand the output of the miner. I'm assuming I can stop and re-start it if I need to. I'm not going to leave the PC on 24/7, but it takes a while to start up, so may not be viable to just run for a day each time

I suspect network settings of the firewall. I will check them out tomorrow. There will be no time tonight for playing with the miner...
