Hello,
I've noticed for nearly everyone who has had an issue is not using the debian 7.0 x64 OS. Please use that as it is the OS this guide was designed for and it could help reduce your problems.

ZVS,
thank you for a quick response. Root is my username from Digital ocean but should enter through another user or not work in the root directory? It looks like the ptsminer is in the directory but I have no idea if its compiled...  Does it look compiled below or or am I missing some steps? I've entered the command for github ptsminer from the first page of this forum and the protoshares mining guide web page. Whats below is everything in my directory. When I attempt to compile the miner again I get an error "directory already exists"?

Hello everyone,

First time post trying to get the miner up and running. I'm running into a problem on the last command to connect my wallet to the pool. Here is what I'm encountering:

root@Protoshares:~/ptsminer/src# cd ~/ptsminer/src && ./ptsminer <Pp3YQebfAe8BbxJJ8LMer2NGbAY1Q2TFzy> <2>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
root@Protoshares:~/ptsminer/src# cd ~/ptsminer/src && ./ptsminer Pp3YQebfAe8BbxJJ8LMer2NGbAY1Q2TFzy 2
bash: ./ptsminer: No such file or directory
root@Protoshares:~/ptsminer/src# ./ptsminer <Pp3YQebfAe8BbxJJ8LMer2NGbAY1Q2TFzy> <2>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
root@Protoshares:~/ptsminer/src# ./ptsminer Pp3YQebfAe8BbxJJ8LMer2NGbAY1Q2TFzy 2
bash: ./ptsminer: No such file or directory
root@Protoshares:~/ptsminer/src#

Ubuntu: 12.04
Host: Mac 10.7.2 2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon

Has anyone else run into this? First attempt at mining so please feel free to point out the stupid obvious mistake! I've followed both the updated mining guide from the protoshares website and the original script on this thread with the same results. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Parker

1) you shouldn't be using root

2) you dont need to change to a directory you're already in

3) you wouldn't use < > for this, it'd be ' '  , but it isnt necessary here anyway

4) ptsminer doesn't exist in /ptsminer/src, either because you never compiled it or because it has a different filename.  i have no clue.  use ls -latr

Hellooo evryone;

I can not find Protoshares cloud mining profitable, i finally could set it up and am not amused with the results. Is anyone experiencing any different?  :o


Regards
:D

it's not, unless you think the value of PTS will increase.. but then you'd be better off just buying PTS, instead of continuing to operate this while unprofitable

it's good to use with the free credits, that's it

Remember to PM me if you have any questions for a quicker reply!

is it possible to retroactively insert the refferal to my digitalocean account? I think I may have screwed that bit up?

Thanks!

Sorry, I meant I got Debian Wheezy 7.1 Server 64-bit running on that machine.

The latest version of ptsminer doesn't compile anymore.

It gives me the following error:

Code Select Expand

main_poolminer.cpp:(.text.startup+0x10d): undefined reference to `cpuid_basic_identify' LTS

I'm on Ubuntu LTS.

Please switch to Debian 7.0 x64.
