I’m getting the exact same issue as well.
UPDATE: Changed config.xml connection settings and it fixed the issue:
<ConnectionAddress>eu-west-stratum.grinmint.com</ConnectionAddress>
<ConnectionPort>3416</ConnectionPort>
<Ssl>false</Ssl>
Something is teribli wrong with my config file. 0 compatible GPU’s detected.
How exactly should I edit the file in order to run the miner smoothly.
Windows7x64
Just downloaded the latest version of the miner and here what happens when started. Cuda solver gives me an error : Unable to create kernels
I found the problem - the miner is working only with the crimson amd drivers, so you have to download them. It didn’t work with the adrenaline ones for AMD.

Hi all! Having issues using Bminer 12.1 (and 12.0.1) on GrinMint (via HiveOS) … was working fine for a while, now getting very low share rate … some people saying GrinMint is borked … tried all ports and both US and EU connections … works fine on other pools but I wanna use GrinMint! Any idea how to fix this?
thanks!

bminer is borked, not GrinMint. bminer is sending all shares to the pool, regardless if they meet the difficulty minimum specfied by the pool - hence the “Share rejected due to low difficulty” messages. The problem doesn’t appear on some pools because those pools only request the lowest possible difficulty, so it’s not possible for bminer to return shares of a lower difficulty.

Interesting … thanks for your feedback … and also interesting … I’m seeing the dashboard on GrinMint reporting a normal share/stale/rejected ratio … but a very low hashrate (30 on my miner panel but only 5 on GrinMint) … weird cuz it was working fine the day of launch. I can transition to GrinMiner I suppose I was using BMiner cuz I’ve been using it for other things. Thanks!
bminer has said that it is indeed their problem and that they are working on it.

thanks Dwayne! cheers!
okay so i have a question here, i have seen that this coin is supposed to be ASIC resistant and then i see a post about it being where your saying its supposed to be only asic only, can you elaborate on this and why? you have two diff post and why you want one over the other? thank you
there are two stage for mining in this coin. first with ASIC resistant hw and then gradually ASIC frienly.
I’ve been reading a lot about Grin mining but there’s a question I haven’t found an answer for: how does Grin deal with mining difficulty and block production? Is there a automatic adjustment as in other PoW cryptos? Does it work the same way, or not, for C29 and C31+? Thanks in advance for your answers!
oh okay thank you for clarifying that i heard XRN is doing this as well TY again
Hi everyone!
I’m a total noob with mining (well, also in crypto in general).
I understand that in order to mine, I need to open 3 apps: grin wallet listen, grin (the node) and grin-miner.
My question is, what happens if any (or all) of those apps were closed (either normally by pressing Q or abruptly by pulling the power cable)? Will it “reset the mining” or will it continue where it left off when I restart everything?
dear all, its Ludi and I’m new to this. I have 12 RX580 8gb gpu. Can I use it to mine Grin? How many Grin will I get per day or per hour.
thanks
Guys, do riserless mining motherboards preclude themselves from being useful for mining grin due to their usually low-end integrated CPUs? I’m worried that the Intel Celeron 3855u in an OCTOMINER rig will bottleneck while mining grin with several high end cards. Thoughts?
@tromp Any thoughts on minimum CPU requirements for running several high-end graphics cards to mine grin? Is a 2-core, 1.60 GHz Intel Celeron 3855u going to bottleneck?
Trying to see if going riserless (with crappy integrated CPU) is a bad idea…
Alternatively, if I wanted to build a cheap, easy rig with 8 or 9 1060 6GB cards in an OCTOMINER, could I get away with that integrated 3855u? LIke, maybe I won’t have any issues with bottlenecking if I stick with 1060s.

I just finished building a rig, RX580 cards, keep getting Stratum Connect #143# no such host is known. Please help, Thank you.
depending on the miner, you may need to remove the ‘stratum+tcp’ part, or make sure to use the right port…
Thank you so much for the response and help. Wish you all the best.
Sun, Chuang
