For past 3 days I was testing few coins and decided to mine FTC because of it support for the low-end miners like me.
I’m trying to set my cudaminer and I think I got it right BUT when I run it there’s this error message:
[code][2013-05-22 03:29:20] HTTP request failed: Failed connect to 127.0.0.1:9332; No
error
[2013-05-22 03:29:20] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 15 seconds[/code]What’s the thing I’m missing?
[/quote]What gpu are you mining with or CPUs’ If you are mining with GPU try using CGminer best out their for all gpus

looks like you are trying to solo mine. i’m also not familiar with cudaminer. this may help:
-windows:(i don’t do linux)
–install and run feathercoin client
–close client
–locate feathercoin directory using >start>run>%appdata%
–create feathercoin configuration file in notepad as follows: (change the user/ password values to whatever you want them to be:)
rpcuser=
rpcpassword=
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=9772
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0–save this file as: feathercoin.conf (be sure to save it in the appdata feathercoin directory)
–relaunch feathercoin client and let it finish synchronizing with the network
–point mining client of your choosing to http://127.0.0.1:9772 with the user / password you assignedi recommend joining a pool at this difficulty level though
try: http://www.fcpool.com/ 0% fee - PPLNS -

[/quote]nVidia9600GT also I joined a pool and even set it in bat file (based upon readme.txt instructions) but I still get the http://127.0.0.1:9772 address ?

post a copy of your config file. what pool did you join?
-
Are you starting cudaminer.exe with “-o http://[i]pool-url[/i]:[i]port[/i] -O myworker.1:mypass” (without the quotes)?
As suggested, please post the contents of your startup batch file and we should have you mining in no time.
@Justabit - can you move this to tech support?

[/quote]I’ve joined ftc.d2.cc and CPU mining was fine.
[code]cudaminer.exe -d 0 -i 1 -l autotune -C 0
-o http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -O username:pass[/code]
(Under “-O” I got properly set my worker name and password)[quote author=wesphily link=topic=645.msg5171#msg5171 date=1369188539]
Is the client supposed to be connecting to your local host or a remote host? according to the error it looks like it is trying to connect to your computer as indicated by this line: 2013-05-22 03:29:20] HTTP request failed: Failed connect to 127.0.0.1:9332; No
[/quote]
Absolutely not. It should connect to http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -
If that’s a direct copy/paste, my guess is that you have a linebreak after “-C 0”
It should look like:
[code]cudaminer.exe -d 0 -i 1 -l autotune -C 0 -o http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -O username:pass[/code]
You also seem to have a double space after cudaminer but i don’t think that causes a problem.
-
Fixed both and it works now, I didn’t knew that bat files are break/line sensitive :o

Thanks all for the help! I will thank you with my mined FTC whenever it happens :)

Glad i could help and welcome to the rather addictive world of mining FTC! :D

After mining for about a month now with my gtx 660… I have made about 25-30 between like 6 or 7 coins if i were to trade them all for btc lol but… I have made the decision I am selling my 660 now and getting a 6950 tomorrow… then hopefully a second with the $ from the 660… but if you must use nvidia like i have had to, you should try and get the most out of it i guess
If you are using this
cudaminer.exe -d 0 -i 1 -l autotune -C 0 -o http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -O username:pass
Try it like this instead…
cudaminer.exe -d 0 -i 1 -l autotune [u][b]-C 2 -m 1[/b][/u] -o http://pool.d2.cc:9344 -O username:pass
That was the .bat setting I used on my 8800gs 384mb and was able to get about 25-30 kh/s out of it… not sure but I think you should get slightly higher kh/s than 13 unless i’m thinking 9800gt idk…

I have exactly the same graphics card

I use cudaminer on a gtx 560 will give that a shot too. Hopefully I can get some more hashes from it over the next days.
