I have been running into really weird compile issues, otherwise I'd have the new wallet good to go. My flash drive I use to transfer between my main OS and my Linux VM seems to corrupt some files and the compiles fail for weird reasons. But I've also been working and haven't had time to analyze it to its full end.

Not to put pressure on the people who are working on the client, but I think we need a new one now.
New client and instructions were posted this past week.
As stated a few weeks ago, I don't have a machine I can compile on. Unless I missed it (entirely possible) you just posted a windows exe file. The explorer is on a Linux box.
I'll throw up a windows VM and get your client and the bootstrap and go from there.
Give me a day or two and it should be be back and synced.

What is the linux executable file that you're using from the compile?

Yep, I am seeing the same thing. The few nodes that the block explorer are connecting to that are good NDL are all at the same spot.
Did someone mining fork off or is there another issue?
Not to put pressure on the people who are working on the client, but I think we need a new one now and then you can do regular releases over the next few weeks / months / whatever till all the new features are in.
But, I am not a programmer or developer so I have no idea if that is going to be a bigger task or not.

Chain stopped again with no connection; I do have block number 1321888 at abt 22:00 pm UTC yesterday ... seems to fit to Daves blockexplorer, that also stopped then.
So far I didn't test Chicagos work, I simply have not enough time at the moment.

Hello dnp,
The "network" primarily has been the node I published earlier in the week and one Windows 7 node which is connected with it.
About 10 hours ago, I rebooted my hypervisor and had forgot to restart the Windows wallet so that there would be at least one connection to the other node.
I've started it back up and also ran another test with the updated code on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and it is syncing now too.
I see you're not exactly running my build. There are some key differences in your output compared to what is produced by the published code.
Notably, the src/main.cpp line cited in your assertion error does not match up here. Your code suggests SetBestChain is defined starting in line 1802 while in the code I've shared it is declared in line 1784.
There are some other notable differences during startup I have highlighted above from your post.
Here is what a debug.log startup sequence looks like with the code I have shared.
The sources in the repository are nearly identical to the original code published in 2014.
The changes are all cleanly visible in the commit history.
I have also prepared a Linux binary.
You may find it on the releases page of the repository here.
Please note it too is linked with Berkeley DB v5.3.
This is a transparent and serious attempt to repair the network and to prevent unintentional forks due to the error reports and failures shared here last weekend.
In terms of inspecting the changes to the original code and seeing what was modified is exactly what was advertised - I think the commits make this possible for most people quite easily.
I was motivated to do the work because it would have a serious impact on the health and longevity of the Noodlyappendagecoin network.
Best Regards,
-Chicago
it's a fresh wallet.dat too, it ran okay earlier in the day and was all caught up with the one node at that time.

I've been taking the "Network ID" as the pchmessage code. Perhaps they are not the same thing.
The Network ID is the first four bytes of every block.
Wire protocol is little-endian.
The pchMessageStart is the same as the Network ID.
October 16, 2018, 05:29:01 AM
Nevertheless, this seems important: Are you on the same chain as our blockexplorer (daves work)?
http://explorer.noodlyappendagecoin.net/
http://explorer.noodlyappendagecoin.net/
Yes, same chain.
The hash at height 1314626 from the FSM bootstrap.dat in the new peer swarm matches the hash on the explorer.
be76cac6a6c69b2eedbb2972722ffdbb5e18a0b83a5f59f9cc5cb5adc992bfc6
Divergence begins at 1314626 +1 because obviously I couldn't magically upgrade software remotely for everyone around the planet.

There is one full node only and it is not mining.
addnode=23.253.205.134
addnode=[2001:4801:7825:102:be76:4eff:fe10:3d29]
If you would like to participate, just run the new code and start your miner.
I am hoping this solves the network problems we discussed over the weekend and acts as a stop-gap until we perform another network upgrade to implement BIP 34 and BIP 66.
This interim client should make things easier on future development so there are less exceptions written into the code.
This interim client is not meant to hinder other development efforts.
This client is a clean break from the v0.8.6.1 network.
There was approximately a 12 hour difference between the snapshot at height 1314626 and this public release.
If I picked the wrong fork of the chain, let me know and we can do this experiment again with another chain.
I selected this chain because it is the one which His Holy Noodliness's code identifies with in the peer swarm.

Will look at it these days, I am very happy that thoughts and efforts do come up these days!

If yes, I have got a few ideas too, what we can do to secure that this remains to be the right side of the ndl-blockchain.

In my experiment, I set the Network ID to FSM1.
It wasn't too much effort to render a linear bootstrap.dat using the new Network ID.
