      I’m having some problems. can you help me?

      This is my error:
      bignum.h:12:24: fatal error: openssl/bn.h: No existe el archivo o el directorio
      #include
      ^
      compilation terminated.
      make: *** [obj/checkpoints.o] Error 1
      mv: no se puede efectuar `stat’ sobre «feathercoind»: No existe el archivo o el directorio

      The parts in spanish are just saying that there is no file or directory.

        Is libssl and the source files installed on your system? For example “libcurl4-openssl-dev” ?

          Hello there again.
          the problem with the missing libraries it’s already done.

          Now I have another problem. I’ve done everything that it is in the guide, but I have no feedback.
          so I start feathercoind and I get a “feathercoin server starting” and nothing else.
          when i make the “screen” instruction i just get nothing.

          any idea of what is wrong?

          – Update –

          Now the “screen -r” command its working, and I’ve done nothing to fix it.

            I’m sure I’m doing something very wrong here…

            So everything seams to install ok for me as I follow the steps thru but then when it gets to the stages for things to be running, it all goes a little wonky!

            [code]~/feathercoind[/code]

            Brings back the following

            [code]p2pool@ubuntu:~$ Feathercoin server starting
            Feathercoin: Error loading blkindex.dat[/code]

            Which looks like the block index to me, but I can’t find it to deal with that fact that it looks like it may be corrupt.

            So ignoring this and trying to carry on to see what happens I use the following to start things off

            [code]~/p2pool-feathercoin/run_p2pool.py --net feathercoin -a 6yDqT91YyjioxDeLfcbpWe7Zg9CRfZ1WnF -f 1 --give-author 0 --w 19327 --bitcoind-p2p-port 9336 --bitcoind-rpc-port 9667 rpcadmin APASSWORDHERE --disable-upnp -n ftcpool.nl:19327 -n 94-76-229-211.static.as29550.net:19327 -n p5DC05409.dip0.t-ipconnect.de:19327[/code]

            and the following comes back

              I hope, you have a backup of your private keys, or no coins in your wallet
              What you can do:

              Start feathercoind with the -rescan option to force it to check all locally stored blocks with the blockchain.

              If that doesn’t help, delete the blockfiles.

              It’s the whole ~/.feathercoin/blocks directory

              then start feathercoind again.

              OR

              rename the whole ~/.feathercoin directory to a different name and start feathercoind
              add the rpcuser and rpc password lines to ~/.feathercoin/feathercoin. conf and any other customization you did to that file and restart feathercoind

              Quite normal, as p2pool tries to connect to the feathercoind and this is not running.
              The message should disapear as soon as feathercoind has synced with the blockchain and is ready to work

                No wallet on here this is just being setup as a p2pool server, so nothing to worry about (or is there?)

                I have deleted blkindex.dat now and things are looking a little better, is there any way of telling once the block chain has been downloaded?

                  if feathercoind is running, you can query it locally using the RPC interface:
                  [code]feathercoind getinfo[/code]

                  That will tell you what block it has and will let you work out how many more you need to download, could be a while though…

                    +1 to both of you for your help :)

                    It seams to be up and running now, I have a small miner pointing at it for now to see what happens and make sure I don’t have any big issues before I go and point everything I have at it.

                    So the next question is, how often do I expect to see a payout? do I need to run a script or something to process them or is it already?

                    Thanks again for your help guys

                    UM

                      You’ll see the coins you mine appear in your wallet and show up as immature for 120 blocks (I think?)

                      You won’t see masses of coins come in though, it will be more like a regular drip of fractions of coins (depending on your hashrate of course).

                      Works out well though, my PXC P2Pool miners are making at least as much as when I was on a pool, with no fees.

                        I was trying to get a rough idea of the frequency of the drip so to speak, I have seen a couple of payouts come through I’m now pushing 1 of my big rigs at it so doing over 2Mh/s so the drip is not to bad
