## Messages
In this section, we detail each message and the potential response.
At any point, if miner the tries to do one of the following request (except login) and login is required, the miner will receive the following error message.
| Field | Content |
| ------------- |:---------------------------------------:|
| id | ID of the request |
| jsonrpc | "2.0" |
| method | method sent by the miner |
| error | {"code":-32500,"message":"login first"} |
Example:
```JSON
{
"id":"10",
"jsonrpc":"2.0",
"method":"getjobtemplate",
"error":{
"code":-32500,
"message":"login first"
}
}
```
if the request is not one of the following, the stratum server will give this error response:
| Field | Content |
| ------------- |:--------------------------------------------:|
| id | ID of the request |
| jsonrpc | "2.0" |
| method | method sent by the miner |
| error | {"code":-32601,"message":"Method not found"} |
Example:
```JSON
{
"id":"10",
"jsonrpc":"2.0",
"method":"getgrins",
"error":{
"code":-32601,
"message":"Method not found"
}
}
```
### ```getjobtemplate```

##### Rejected share error responses
Two possibilities: the solution cannot be validated or the solution is of too low difficulty.
###### Failed to validate solution error
The submitted solution cannot be validated.
| Field | Content |

Example:
```JSON
{
"id":"5",
"jsonrpc":"2.0",

## Error Messages
Grin Stratum protocol implementation contains the following error message:
| Error code | Error Message |
| ----------- |:--------------------------------------:|
| -32000 | Node is syncing - please wait |
| -32500 | Login first |
| -32501 | Share rejected due to low difficulty |
| -32502 | Failed to validate solution |
| -32503 | Solution Submitted too late |
| -32600 | Invalid Request |
| -32601 | Method not found |
## Miner behavior
Miners SHOULD, MAY or MUST respect the following rules:
- Miners SHOULD randomize the job nonce before starting (not the way it is now, the way it should be)
- Miners MUST continue mining the same job until the server sends a new one, though a miner MAY request a new job at any time
- Miners MUST NOT send an rpc response to a job request from the server
- Miners MAY set the RPC "id" and expect responses to have that same id
- Miners MAY send a keepalive message
- Miners MAY send a login request (to identify which miner finds shares / solutions in the logs), the login request MUST have all 3 params.
- Miners MUST return the supplied job_id with submit messages.
## Reference Implementation
The current reference implementation is available at [mimblewimble/grin-miner](https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin-miner/blob/master/src/bin/client.rs).
