Note there may be a newer one ... post what you get and I'm sure many will check it ...

O.k thanks utahjohn,

With the checkpoint what should I be looking for to know it is correct.

I synced without it No Problemo
just be sure to check the checkpoint once you are synced

From the console:
getcheckpoint

Thanks Henle for your help. Also thanks to utahjohn.

I chose to do full download it was easiest for me and don't mind waiting for it to download. However I have also added maxconnections=1 in the conf. file. cryptonit advised this in post 1528 however it has caused the download to slow down so much that I want to take it out as it will take forever to download. Without this it downloads fast. Will it matter to take it out?

Thanks

I'll be glad when the exchange and ATMs crypto currency will be worldwide  and you can buy food and goods. directly for crypto currency without exchange for dollars or euros. No government can take away from you your money or impose on them control of the fact that you are a foreigner or not they want to pay taxes.
Sooner or later people will be able to move freely around the world, and the government will play a minor role in their lives. And now there are many like mice in large cages under the supervision of technicians.

Maybe you do not notice what is happening in the world. It has become fashionable to take sanctions against citizens of any country, not pleasing to the government.
  Goverment only dream to get control of the crypto currency. If they can control the input and output The funds. They can block access to the accounts for  for foreigners.
P.s
I do not know whether you own Russian language or not, but that's very revealing cartoon about the fact that such a government. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OgTUioO4ZA

to me detained a conclusion of means of ANC for 5 days!
and every time they again and again passed my problem to technical support.

Assuming you're using Windows...

The .conf file - you have to make it. 
 1. Go into your Roaming\Diamond folder (C:\Users\YourLoginName\AppData\Roaming\Diamond)
 2. Right click, New Text Document.
 3. Rename it diamond.conf
 4. Right click it, Edit.
 5. Paste in what's posted in the original post (the "op").
 6. Save
 7. Restart the wallet.  Changes to the .conf file don't take place until you restart.

Full download - simple - delete everything in the Roaming\Diamond folder except wallet.dat and diamond.conf and start the wallet.  This will take quite some time.  If you have a fast internet connection, probably around 460 minutes.

Or, a little more complicated - to save a lot of time by downloading almost all of the blockchain, you need either Original.rar or a functional blk0001.dat, which you'd find in previous posts, along with instructions.  You should always check the previous posts first or you will get very curt responses.  Cryptonit posted a blockchain with instructions on page 11/12/13 and popshot just posted one recently, but some people have been unsuccessful with the recent one.  Original.rar can be obtained in post 1218 on page 61.

Basically, you're sticking someone else's blockchain in your Roaming\Diamond folder and then reindexing and syncing with the network.  It probably takes a half an hour or less instead of 8+ hours.  These files all came from the coin's devs, so there won't be any issues with them.

To "import" the downloaded blockchain, you'd start the wallet (just one time) either in a cmd prompt or using a batch file something like:
c:\PathToDiamond-QT.exe\diamond-qt.exe -loadblock=blk0001.dat.
(replace PathToDiamond-QT.exe with wherever you put it.  Mine is in E:\Users\John\Downloads\Diamond v.2.0.2.1\)
(if you have a space in your path, the .bat file is probably going to give you problems.)

Good luck.

Perhaps you did not notice that cryptsy is in the United States (at any time, the government may prohibit them from trading). Practice shows that where there is a direct exchange for dollars and euros, the problem starts on the control of the government.
First they said that verification is required only for those who are going to trade in the dollar pairs. And now they say they do impose limits for not verified users. In your understanding of a professional approach? Then they will begin to delay payments. This will be the scenario the exchanges mtgox. In my mind, one of the best exchangers Mcxnow.com now it was not a lot of coins, but it is a quality market and they pay dividends for the deposit. Pity that there is no DMD.

Best of all, the developers will make Diamond a special statement about the incident and say when you plan to release a new wallet.

you have to create diamond.conf
See OP and read thread most answers are to be found ...
for windows the command is:
diamond-qt.exe -loadblock=blk0001.dat
If you are going to start from scratch, delete all except wallet.dat

I need help please and I am new at this,


I am having this problem also, was using the latest wallet and all was working fine till today, haven't tried minting yet.
I also can't find the conf. file in the diamond file and I have the option ticked to show hidden files and folders.

Trying to understand what to do, am new at so don't make it hard and make it understandable so someone who knows nothing can follow your instructions.

Option 1- Full download, does this mean deleting the whole diamond file but first saving the wallet and replace wallet after download. And I expect download is from the new diamond site. Or can you just download new wallet and it will overwrite everything, then delete and replace wallet with original one.

Option 2 - Delete blkindex.dat and run "diamondd -loadblock=blk0001.dat".  Deleting the blkindex.dat file is easy but describe how to run "diamondd -loadblock=blk0001.dat"


Can you also let me know why I can't find the conf. file even with the file view option ticked to show hidden files and folders.

Thanks

Did not work for me.

I am now using an old blockchain backup I had (but in fact more recent than the Original.rar file posted in the OP). Even if I back up the blockchain after sync has finalised and I use that one if I close the wallet, I keep getting the assertion error. I have no other choice other than do everything all over again if I close the wallet. Sigh.

Not good for me. Each time I close the wallet and try to re-open it the same old assertion error happens and the circus starts all over again: delete the blkindex.dat file, add the OP blockchain files, open the wallet with the -loadblock flag, wait, wait, wait, then wait again for the sync. God forbids if I close the wallet or I am back to square one.

I originally let the wallet just run without doing anything, hoping the blockchain issue would work itself out.  It did, as previously reported by others.  Then I had to restart the pc, and the wallet wouldn't open.  Same error as others have posted.

This worked for me, so far, with a couple wallet close/wait a minute/restart wallets:
I backed up the whole roaming/Diamond directory, then deleted everything except Diamond.conf and wallet.dat
I added only the one indicated addnode to diamond.conf(addnode=193.68.21.19), so there was only one.
I added all the files and the database folder from Original.rar and let it resync using
    diamond-qt.exe -loadblock=blk0001.dat.  
I "lost" about 2/3 of my coins from my balance, but the transactions were still visible.
I closed the wallet, waited 1 minute, then opened it again using diamond-qt.exe -repairwallet

This worked.  My balance is correct, including some Diamonds minted yesterday 6/26.
I closed the wallet, waited 1 minute, then restarted it with just diamond-qt.exe.  It opened, and the balance was still correct.
So I did it again to be sure.  Closed the wallet, waited, restarted the wallet.  It's still good for me.

I assume since I only have one addnode I am on the right chain.  I have the same checkpoint info utahjohn and paladin281978 have posted:
{
"synccheckpoint" : "000000005babbddb5baad7bb9632738ab901b2f9eb3acfd2f390b2f4a97f1eee",
"height" : 463183,
"timestamp" : "2014-06-26 16:46:41 UTC"
}

getpeerinfo gives me 6 peers all running the right "subver" : "/Diamond:2.0.2.1/",

Can popshot, cryptonit, or Danbi confirm that's correct?

The only issue is now I have a whole mess of orphaned mint transactions from yesterday listed as my most recent transactions, even though they are not.  Someone else asked, with no reply, is there any way to get rid of them, or at least make them sort properly in date order so they disappear off the screen over time?

I was running wallet 2.0.2.1 and had my wallet open for the starting of the POS, but found the next day that I appeared to be on the wrong chain, as I had all orphans. I fixed it by changing the node and reloading the blockchain, but why did I end up on the wrong fork? I thought being on the newest version would make sure I stayed on the right chain.

i sold LTC for BTC on cryptsy and brought 49 DMD with it and sent it to my wallet after the minting started... and i have got them confermed in my wallet np at all it seems to be working fine for me

This is the BlockChian form the foundation wallet. I tried several times to port it to the other client but each time ended with the 412 error.
Have a go and see if it works for you. Just make sure you make a backup of your old files.

MY WAY TO BE ON RIGHT BLOCKCHAIN:

i just returned today from italy

and read lot people who did not update their wallets
create fork rodeo  

so what i did was this

add to diamond.conf in appdata diamond folder the line

maxconnections=1
addnode=193.68.21.19



and remove all other addnode lines there

delete the peers.dat in appdata diamond folder

create a backup of in appdata diamond folder

start diamond 2.0.2.1 wallet

let the wallet sync (keep in mind i had a synced blockchain to around 21.june so not much to sync)

when sync completed compare diff (mouseover bottom right green checkmark of wallet) with http://dmdpool.digsys.bg/

if its same u are on right blockchain

close wallet

diamond.conf in appdata diamond folder remove the line maxconnections=1 save it

and start wallet again

once wallet started and sync

unlock wallet

and wait for pos rewards
(in my case first one came 30 sec after unlock wallet and nearly instant got first confirmation))



WELCOME ON RIGHT BLOCKCHAIN!

-------------------------------------------------


i read about other wallet troubles beside some people being unlucky synced to wrong fork

im sorry for the inconvenience this is creating for the people who got this

we did this time a extended beta and that error did not appear in beta

as popshot and danbi said already we will research and try to provode a fix  asap

i send coins for cryptsy and not arrived
