I typed "yes" and it has been reindexing for three days now. I don't know if this is ever going to stop.
What hardware is this? if a reindex is taking more than a few hours your disk may be failing. Just getting the files from someone else is not going to address whatever the underlying performance problem is here.

He knows about bootstrap.dat and has an up-to-date blockchain so that link is of no help.
Unfortunately I haven't heard of anyone providing the index file(s) but if you do find that please let update this topic (as I might be interested in this also for testing purposes).
I guess it would also be nicer if bitcoin-qt could show some progress when re-indexing (so at least you'd have an idea how long until it will complete).

I put txindex=1 in my bitcoin configuration file.
I was told the database needed to be reindexed, and then I was asked if I would like to continue.
I typed "yes" and it has been reindexing for three days now. I don't know if this is ever going to stop.
Is there a copy of the blockchain with a full transaction index available similar to bootstrap.dat?
Would anyone be willing to create a torrent for this?
This is really getting in the way of working on an idea I have :|
