I am creating my own private ethereum blockchain.
sudo geth --rpcapi eth,web3,personal --rpc --networkid=15
Above command gives the below logs.

Then i trigger miner.start(1)
by getting geth console using sudo geth attach ../.ethereum/geth.ipc
so it adds below lines in above logs.
INFO [09-18|10:18:06.859] Updated mining threads threads=1

And after this nothing happens.
FYI, miner.start(1)
returns null
but that is not a problem i guess.
Could you please give me some hints so that i can do possible workarounds to make mining start.
