Mining steem on a Mac
Setup preparation for Mining STEEM for Dummies on MacOS
I am using Mac OS 10.11.5 but it should work on other versions as well.
Step 1
- install Xcode from the App Store and open it for the first time to get the build tools installed
Step 2
- install homebrew if you haven't already
Step 3
- in terminal type in:
brew install python3 automake doxygen openssl wget - after installation:
brew link openssl --force
Step 4
- now you should be able to follow the next steps on Mining STEEM for Dummies starting at
wget -O boost_1_60_0.tar.gz ...
Is this error normal?
clang: warning: optimization flag '-finline-functions' is not supported
Getting that same warning too.
Hi @trung81 for the step 2 I'm getting this:
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/openssl
any tips? thanks!! =)
Hi, try To force install openssl.
brew install openssl --force
thanks I managed that part in the mean time but ended up getting stuck at ./steemd --rpc-endpoint --seed-node="seed.steemed.net:2001" --seed-node="52.74.152.79:2001"
haven't figured how to fix it.. steemd folder only has cmake files. somehow somehting goes wrong before that. I guess.
I 'm looking for this topic but for windows xD
have you looked into this one? https://steemit.com/steem/@tuck-fheman/how-to-mine-steem-in-windows
Thx!
are here anybody who launched mining on Mac. I got the following problem:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.60.0/boost_1_60_0.tar.gz/download
Resolving sourceforge.net... failed: nodename nor servname provided, or not known.
wget: unable to resolve host address ‘sourceforge.net’
can somebody help me?
hi, im getting an error message at step 3 (after installation):
Warning: Refusing to link: openssl
Linking keg-only OpenSSL means you may end up linking against the insecure,
deprecated system version while using the headers from the Homebrew version.
Instead, pass the full include/library paths to your compiler e.g.:
-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
how can i bypass this?
Instead of force linking, you can try setting the OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR environment variable before starting to build
export OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR=/usr/local/opt/opensslThe link says to install ubuntu can I run this strictly on the Mac Os ty for any help
Warning! now mining STEEM is impossible!
how long do you think for a mac book air to mine one steem power?
It's not a good security practice to force openssl linking.
