@robert
Thank you very much for this guide. I will be including it in the FAQ - Mining 101. I will be PMing you about the small bounty.
-
@robert You should link the jminer directly to its source. https://github.com/de-luxe/burstcoin-jminer/releases
Great Thread!

@luxe & @daWallet I've updated the release link. Thanks for suggestion.
You fixed the wrong link at plotting, jminer can not plot.
-
@luxe Fixed now. Thanks for correction.

@robert Question...Can I use this for my MacBook Pro 10.7.5 ? I'm about to get a regular Windows and plot from the Windows client and mine with the MacBook.
-
@chyna88 If you plot in Windows then you have to manage the file system. OS x can't write on NTFS without help of thrid party s/w, if you go for FAT then it can't manage large files. You can use mjminer to plot in mac. Let me know if you have any more inquiries.
-
Thanks, Robert,.. I will give it a try!...I'll let you know ;)
-
@robert Thanks for this useful guide.
I'm currently running Blago miner in Vmware Fusion on a old Mac Pro because i just couldn't figure out how to get this running on a mac.
I just have one question tho, one i run ./run.bat i get this output. (screenshot added)
any idea what that is?

Blago miner
Are you using Windows in VMware? Sorry I never tried in Windows( I don't have one :( ). If so then why don't you use the Windows Client version. For windows I think you'll get support here https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/179/quick-guide-to-the-aio-wallet-plotter-miner
You can start again with Mac and let me know in which step you are facing problem.

This guide might come in handy for introducing some of my Mac friends :)

@robert HI Sorry, I think my previous post was a bit confusing.
So i'm currently mining on a old Mac Pro via Vmware Fusion, i'm running the windows client in there and it works.
But I have a macbook and a mac mini which i could be mining on as well but I get an error on the macbook, hence the screenshot above.
Please let me know your thoughts or if you could guide me in any way.
-
@mafia07 wich Java version you have? need 8
-
@Blago Thanks
I've managed to get this working, busy moving my plots now.
I've got 1TB mining on OSX now. I do notice I get this error once in a while.
#the last line on screenshot "nonce submit not successful"
or i get an error 1007
What could be causing this? Is it a setting perhaps?
-
Appologies it's an error 1006
-
@mafia07 1006 means "connection lost"
miner will try to send (if not sent) deadline, or if sent, and waiting response - just writes this info and close connection
-
@Blago Thanks for that info
I've adjusted my properties now as well, as per another user on this forum.
-
restartInterval has no effect on last version 0.4.4 anymore, your other settings are ok.
Like @Blago said, the miner can only submit to pool, but can do nothing if pool does not respond in time ... in most cases it got your deadline anyway.
