Cant launch CPU miner

Says it wont connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 9### something.

Do I need to port forward?...seems like an odd error i figured it would list an external ip?
 
If your trying to mine solo, you need to add settings to your config file.
Code:
rpcuser=[username]
rpcpassword=[pass]
rpcallow=127.0.0.1, localhost
rpcport=9998
port=9999
server=1

Then to connect you would do /minerd -a X11 -o http://127.0.0.1:9998 -u [username] -p [password]

Unless you have a massive botnet farm, mining solo with a CPU is not recommended. You should join a pool instead.
