Some node please?

I am agree with you!

10.2 a new wallet is stuck and not sync for a long time - is needed urgently new

Do you have any ETA on the 10.3 wallet ?

I have already put too much work on trying to get the FST pool running, so at this point, I'd rather wait for the new wallet.

Please revert to v.8.7.2 until the release of 0.10.3. There were not enough users who upgraded to 10.2 before the block consensus was met. Version 10.3 will either remove this option all together or set a deeper block number into the blockchain to provide more time for users to upgrade to the new client.

I'm also having issues.

Please advice!

My users are waiting to mine.


Here is one: addnode=stratum.scryptpool.com
As per: https://www.scryptpool.com/pool/FST

Ps: I'm going to start banning peers running versions other than 10.2.2 if this keeps up.

I'm having the same problem, although my height is 5421069.  I would appreciate the help.

im stuck on block 5421054, i do not use any addnode. anybody able to help ?

You can setup p2pool with disabled network support or mine on my pool 1% fee http://cointech.net/mining-pools

Is there ANY way to solo mine without setting up a stratum, like the older versions? It was very easy before the change. Can we PLEASE have it the way it was before? Thanks. I think the block chain has slowed way down. I was mining FST on a daily basis, as it was my go to coin for solomining because of its fastest block speed. I think everyone else has done the same. This badly needs to be fixed.

Hi Jon,

Managed to configure my miner sucessfully but I opted to pool mine since is easier to setup than setting my own stratum proxy. I tried to sync my wallet today but it reports that no block source is available so I can't receive any FST. Any info on when will it be fixed?

Fastcoin Core 10.2.2 is derived from both Bitcoin/Litecoin 10.x. Look at the guides to solo mine bitcoin using the new version later then 10.2.x   
Bitcoin Core doesn't directly allow for stratum miners to connect, you will need a proxy to translate the two mining methods used by Bitcoin Core and CGminer.

For an Antminer S3, it's easy to setup using BFGminer.
Run BFGminer on the same computer as Fastcoin Core with the configuration below, you won't need any further settings altered or configured.

bfgminer --stratum-port=3333

BFGminer will launch, and retrieve the information needed for solo mining.                                                                    

You're now ready to solo mine against Fastcoin Core, you just have to point your miner at the IP address of the computer running BFGminer, and the miner should show up in the top section of BFGminer with its hashrate showing as "PXY" (stratum proxy). Any blocks will be paid out to the coinbase address shown in BFGminer, which is a new one generated from your wallet.

I have been solomining with probably 40 different coins without issue. I tried like hell to get the new fastcoin to solomine and it WILL NOT. Please dev put out a fix for this to work like every other wallet out there that solomines without a stratum. Thank you.

You should use a stratum proxy to solo mine.

The rpcallowip= configuration has changed, it no longer supports using "localhost". You must define the IP address or use a range such as "rpcallowip=192.168.1.1/24"

Hi I'm having trouble solo mining. I've tried different configs but always get the same error.

HTTP request failed: Failed to connect to localhost port 9527: Connection refused [other times it returns a "no response"]
json_rpc_call failed, retry after 10 seconds

Here are the configs I'm using for the cpu and gpu miner and my wallet:

Fastcoin.conf

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=myusername
rpcpassword=mypassword
rpcallowip=localhost
rpcport=9527
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
addnode=190.191.141.145
addnode=75.135.81.210
addnode=69.57.165.193
addnode=168.61.25.9

CPU Miner Epsylon's

cpuminer-multi-x64 -a scrypt -t 3 -T 2 -q --coinbase-addr=myaddress -o localhost:9527 -u myusername -p mypassword

GPU Miner Epsylon's

ccminer-35-50-52.exe -a scrypt -i 15 -o http://127.0.0.1:9527 -O myusername:mypassword

have you fixed the problem with all the orphans?

last check showed an average of 47% of all blocks generated were orphans (in the older wallet). I'm still catching up my block chain and will take a look after the block chain after the date of the new release.

IMPORTANT
v0.10.2.2 is now the official release version of Fastcoin Core. On top of the new features, this update contains very important security fixes and all users MUST upgrade to this version as soon as possible as details on several vulnerabilities will be made public on July 7th (Official Bitcoin warning). Pool operators, P2Pool and solo miners especially, as once BIP 66 is enforced, version 2 blocks will be rejected from the network entirely. P2Pool miners must upgrade to the latest version which can be obtained from forrestv's repo.

What's New in version v0.10?
This is a major release of Fastcoin Core, featuring the technical equivalent of Bitcoin v0.10.2 but with Fastcoin specific patches. The block synchronization and various internals are considerably faster and more efficient, and it has several major privacy improvements.  The most significant changes include:

• Watch-only wallet support. This allows the wallet to track transactions to and form wallets for which you know the address of but do not have the private key to.
• Faster blockchain synchronization due to headers-first synchronization and support for downloading blocks in parallel. Downloading the blockchain is now much quicker and can be completed within a few hours instead of taking days for some users.
• A REST interface which allows unauthenticated access to public node data when the -rest flag is specified.
• RPC Server “Warm-Up” Mode which starts earlier than previous versions. This helps users or services relying on it know that the server has already started and will be available soon.
• Improved signing security. This is due to using the libsecp256k1 library for signing instead of OpenSSL. libsecp256k1 is a cryptographic library optimized for elliptic curve uses which Litecoin relies on and was created by Bitcoin Core developer Pieter Wuille. Featuring better security, via hardening against timing leaks and derandomization, this library is believed to be better tested and more thoroughly reviewed than the implementation in OpenSSL.
• New utility applications including litecoin-tx for transaction related functionality and litecoin-cli for RPC command line functionality as litecoind no longer accepts them.
• Strict DER encoding for signatures (BIP 66). This introduces block version 3 and a new consensus rule which prevents non-standard transactions from being included in blocks. This also removes the dependency on OpenSSL’s signature parsing. Eventually, libsecp256k1 will be used for all consensus related tasks, depreciating the need for OpenSSL entirely.
• RPC Access Changes. RPC access now supports binary network addresses. This means that you can specify a single IP address, a CIDR network address or a netmask for accessing the RPC service.
• Please note, wildcard string matching no longer works and will display an error in the debug.log file when you attempt to use use a wildcard string in the rpcallowip= variable, either as a config setting or launch parameter.
  
  Example: Allow RPC access from IP addresses 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254
  

Note: IPv6 addresses can also be used.

The major user-visible features that were new in Bitcoin v0.9 and v0.10 are not actually new for Fastcoin v0.10 because we backported it to Fastcoin v0.8 (like Coin Control).
For a complete list of Fastcoin Core specific changes, you can view the release notes here.

Fastcoin v0.10.2.2 is a minor release from the previous release candidate, featuring improvements and bug fixes. The changes can be seen below:

• Added option -alerts’ to opt out of the network alert system. Please note that disabling network alerts should only be used by power users as this system is used for network emergencies and important security releases. The default behavior is that network alerts are enabled.
• Detect and reject LibreSSL. This prevents a non-approved SSL library being used for compiling Fastcoin Core, preventing potential consensus compatibility issues.
• Improved getbalance RPC functionality to allow the user to display zero confirmation transactions (this works with watch-only addresses as well).
• PID file bug fix for non-Windows based systems.
• Bug fix for signing and verifying messages.
• New GPG Signing Process

WARNING
While this branch has been extensively tested to be compatible with the existing Fastcoin 0.8 network there is the possibility that we missed something.  BACKUP YOUR FASTCOIN DATADIR and wallet.dat because after you run v0.10 the old v0.8 version is no longer compatible with your on-disk data.

New client is working.
