Ergo pool will not initialise

[dbaldree]

Hi team,

Getting this error with ERGO node - I'm suspecting a missing config setting but cannot locate any examples of ergo anywhere.

--- End of stack trace from previous location ---
at Miningcore.Program.ExecuteAsync(CancellationToken ct) in /opt/miningcore/miningcore/src/Miningcore/Program.cs:line 333
at Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.Internal.Host.TryExecuteBackgroundServiceAsync(BackgroundService backgroundService)
Miningcore.Mining.PoolStartupAbortException: Daemon reports: An error occurred while sending the request.

the multithread task is throwing an exception.
await Task.WhenAll(clusterConfig.Pools
.Where(config => config.Enabled)
.Select(config=> RunPool(config, coinTemplates, ct)));

this RunPool function appears to want a cluster config - but I am just using the simple createdb version...

Should I be running the advanced script? or is it just a missing block in config.json?

errors straight after this checkpoint in the log (debug log).
100% sure this is just something to do with config.json.

I think I got it actually --- in the ergo.conf I changed miner=false to miner=true and it seems to be running... need to whack a worker at it but it is certainly better than where I was at.
