Need Help

I recently started mining burst and I am still trying to figure out how certain things work. Right now I am trying to mine but all I am getting are these messages:
File "(account id)" name/ size mismatch
There is also no deadline when I start mining. I'm trying to figure out if there is something wrong that I am doing. Can anyone help?

Have you plotted your drives yet?
-
@PedroM100 If you have not plotted your drives yet, do this:
-
set up an account. Go to your wallet and set up and account there. Copy the passphrase and save it somewhere safe.
-
log in to your account and use the faucet to fund it.
-
Name your account or alias on the upper left side. To enable your public key. or simply send a single burst to anyone. It's easier to just name your wallet.
-
on the bottom, of the wallet, click write plots and select your drive to plot.
-
Use the wallet address of that newly made wallet address to plot your drive. Your wallet address is on the upper left side of your wallet and it's starting with BURST________ ____ ___ ___.
-
after waiting for hours and hours of plotting, now set up your mining.
-
Log in again to your account using your passphrase.

for lists of mining pools, go here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KHu9BWwy_QXIYAx2m_Tzs9BqPoTYUDhEDbHihZEXGsE/htmlview?pli=1#
-
Press submit and wait 4 blocks or confirmations and you can start mining.
If you have still more questions, don't hesitate to ask. :)

@PedroM100 If you have finished plotting, you can try to use Blago's plots checker to correct the plot in case of any error.
-
I have plotted about 350G all ready.
-
@PedroM100 download the plot checker @Gadrah_ just gave the link look up. And then put the plot checker on your system drive (usually C)
then, tell me what drive did you plot? I will give you the command
-
I plotted onto my hard drive.

I did the steps for submitting a pool recipient and entered my passphrase.I got this message:
{"errorDescription":"Unknown account","errorCode":5}
-
Problem. The plot checker that I downloaded won't stay open. It keeps forcing itself to close.

Have you activated ur account ??
-
I don't think so. How do I activate my account?
-
@PedroM100 u need to make sure, that u are spending atleast 1 coin on renaming or sending a coin back to faucet
-
So renaming the account activates the account?

Yes ... Anything that will create an outgoing transaction ... Will activate your account
-
I named it as Burstcoin Needed but still there is the same problem of file mismatch. On my local burst account, its downloading something called blockchain. Could the problem has to do with blockchain?
-
@PedroM100 Now its time for you to set reward assignment .... Also let me know if you are still plotting ??
