Steem Mining issues?
I was just wondering if anyone had any clues why my steem mining isn't working?
I'm running windows 10 64 bit.
I tired to configure the INI file as per a youtube tutorial
but I get this error...
UNEXPECTED CHARACTER 106 IN STEEMNAME
{"c":106."s":"STEEMNAME"}
there is nothing wrong with my steemname.
I downloaded the (3gb?) blockchain and put it where it belongs.
In the config ini I have set;
witness = BLAH
miner = [BLAH:BLAH] (i used the ACTIVE key for this right?
mining-threads = 2
I'm starting steemd.exe
have I missed something?
BTW how much am I likely to earn mining?
Is there a mining calculator somewhere I haven't found yet?

Do you have Quotes on your name it needs to be witness = "BLAH"
Dang it THANK YOU !!!
I started out with quotes, but it hadn't worked the first tiem (some other user error I guess)
and when I checked the youtube video it showed the witness without quotes
THANK YOU so much ! It seems to be mining now ;-)
Glad i could help :)
You can check this guide and see if you've done everything properly in ur INI file: https://steemit.com/steemit/@cryptos/getting-started-mining-steem-on-windows
Missing quotes are most likely the issue here for witness, miner and WIF private key... at least based on what you have posted.
