Topic: [ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained] - page 998. (Read 1369788 times)

This is the post that got my wallet working and sync started - the link in the OP with all of those nodes would not sync - WINDOWS 7 -  I jsut hope it syncs the entire blockchain now.

Trying it now still starts with no connections was there an amount of time you had to wait before the wallet started to have connections?

ok. this should help. hopefully you will have done a backup. i deleted my mintcoin file in appdata/roaming. deleted the mint wallet. downloaded and reinstalled the mint wallet.run wallet then shut it. open app/roaming again and open the mintcoin folder. create a new .conf file with
testnet=0
listen=1
addnode=198.241.46.170
addnode=162.243.4.85
addnode=211.28.143.54
addnode=46.4.95.176
addnode=192.241.215.76
addnode=111.126.201.199
addnode=14.107.225.71
addnode=162.243.222.26
addnode=144.76.64.123
addnode=89.71.42.172
addnode=212.247.109.253
maxconnections=100
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=your name
rpcpassword=your password
rpcport=12789
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1

then relaunch wallet,let it sync. then put your saved wallet.dat file back into the mintcoin file in app/roaming.let it sync again.sorted.

my mint address is in my sig. if it works for you i would appreciate any tips.cheers

this is only when you encrypt you wallet, otherwise you don't need to do it.


this is just the normal connection messages I think, some nodes your client can not connect, they timed out etc. These nodes could be off the port of mintcoin (e.g. not running mintcoin client). I have a bunch of these, but I am able to connect to some other nodes.

I get this message in my debug file wondering if this is the case...

ERROR: GetMyExternalIP() : connection to 91.xxx.22.xx:80 failed  took out the numbers but its a full ip

this error too ERROR: CAddrman::Read() : open failed

I was trying all day yesterday to get it to sync. I added the following to a mintcoin.conf text file and then saved it as ALL FILES. In the drop down menu when you're saving it change it from "Save as type:text document" to "Save as type:all files".  The moment that it started being recognized as a conf file, rather than a text document my wallet started to sync.

format > install windows or linux > install wallet... does that count?


Sorry couldn't resist lol

I dont have .conf file, just downloaded .zip wallet, unpacked and run, everything is ok.

If you can get my Mac Wallet to sync, i'll give you 20,000 Mint.

Same for us, we have made our POOL working few minutes after the launch and I am also mining from the beginning with no issue on my wallet.
My .conf file only contains two node servers :

testnet=0
listen=1
addnode=9.207.10.24
addnode=66.18.67.23
maxconnections=100
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=XXXX
rpcpassword=XXXX
rpcport=12789
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
 
Perhaps you need to wait for devs ansers or you can try to find the first version of the wallet which works like a charm !

You can still join us and mine on http://mnt.coins4everyone.com

This POOL works nicely since the launch !

as i said. my wallet was setup correctly and was working up till yesterday. i am not a noob.
now today it is stuck. i have the .conf file. i have tried deleting the .conf file. i have redone the .conf file. nothing works

 what about all the errors in my debug log?

Just discovered MINT, downloaded wallet 20 mins ago. Created mintcoin.conf file as explained in OP and everything works perfect.

If anyone could donate to offset my loss of 1M coins, here is my new(now backed up) address: MimwZXkz2RKvhZDCbfDyWPHb1iUC1aDWW3  . I'd really appreciate it.

you have to create one with what is mentioned in the OP.. but even after that... good luck!

That is correct, you have to make the config file yourself, as per original post

Wallet Update:  Windows 7 - I do not even have a config file in the downloaded wallet.  Just .exe and .dll files

I know my english is bad, its not my language! but i think you can understand what i say!

 what a knob.. please reread the posts troll boy. we had working wallets.now they don't work

this is in the debug log. this is just the start of it

and it goes on

Once I added the nodes (2 lots) both of my wallets (windows and linux) synced without issues.   Windows didn't show it updating after block 2500 ish, but if you go to debug, you can see current block going up
