Mining on Ubuntu with CreepMiner issue
-
Hey guys, im trying to use CreepMiner (https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner) on Ubuntu but im having trouble getting it to run. I've run the following commends to get it started.
sudo wget "https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/releases/download/2.5.2/creepMiner.tar.gz" sudo wget "https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/releases/download/2.5.2/mining.conf" sudo tar -xzvf "creepMiner.tar.gz" ./creepMinerbut that results in the error:
./creepMiner: error while loading shared libraries: libPocoFoundation.so.46: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directorybut from using
lsI can see thatlibPocoFoundation.so.46is 100% in the same directory ascreepMiner
So I have no idea whats going on here, anyone got some insight for how to mine on Linux?
I do already have some drives plotted, it's just getting the miner started that I'm struggling with.

You'll have compile creepminer first before using it. To do this follow:
https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/wiki/Compilation-&-Installation
-
@manfromafar From here: https://github.com/Creepsky/creepMiner/releases/tag/2.5.2 Is the one listed under
64 bit version for Linux (Ubuntu)not a pre-compiled binary?
-
@manfromafar I just tried compiling it myself and got the exact same error when running the output inside
/bin
-
@ToxicPhyzix if you use the precompiled miner call
sh ./run.shor./run.sh
-
Ah ok i've got it working now, I downloaded v 1.6 "pre-release" and that works fine after doing the exact same steps as above
