Notice - Killing bugs is taking longer then I thought. I am working hard to get this done asap.
I am hoping to be able to open the site in a couple more hours.

I updated my Mac build of the PhenixCoin wallet to version 0.6.4.7, which resolved a syncing problem for me. The URL is at the Mac Wallets thread listed in my signature. Enjoy!

there is also a free online wallet at my sig which started supporting PXC today

What is the operating principle of the online wallet?

for people to have a portion of their coins for easy online access.

I was really waiting for you to do this. Now more people can come to PXC easily.

Another bug, mentioned earlier, still occurs:

after running the wallet for a while (hours) the "Synchronizing with network.." progress bar reappears saying:

Quote

327431 blocks remaining

and when hovering over it with the mouse:

Quote

Downloaded block 46579 of 374010

although there are only 46579 blocks in total by now.

Errors like the following show up in the -printtoconsole log:

Code:

ERROR: FetchInputs() : 7f86e710b0 mempool Tx prev not found 73a5af9661
stored orphan tx 7f86e710b0 (mapsz 15)
ERROR: FetchInputs() : d02d4ba85b mempool Tx prev not found 8ca4687af1
stored orphan tx d02d4ba85b (mapsz 16)
received getdata for: tx de72b672826e9013aa7f
ResendWalletTransactions()
ERROR: FetchInputs() : 38b44facd9 mempool Tx prev not found c39f7dc03d
stored orphan tx 38b44facd9 (mapsz 17)

Not really a bug, just one or more people who are trying to get us on the LTC (or another) chain.
Just ignore it

Oh

Weird. How do they do it?

Not sure *how* they do it ... probably a misconfigured port somewhere.
But normally this should not happen because litecoin clients should not be allowed to talk to phenixcoin clients.
Each coin should use a different identifier (often called "magic number"), but pxc and most other coins did not change this identifier when copying the code base of litecoin
(this identifier is 4 bytes, in the pchMessageStart variable)

With a correct setting of this variable to something else (as long as it is not used by another coin), it would take at least someone manually copying the litecoin blockchain into pxc directory to have this problem.

Thanks, that's odd indeed, I mean what are the odds for that working? Shouldn't the proof of work system reject locally invalid blocks from a different chain and prevent this? Well, they managed to trick my client somehow Undecided

Hello all just wanted to let everyone know there is a new client for PhenixCoin

** PLEASE UPDATE YOUR CLIENTS ** - Version 6.4.7 is now available, please download it before block 46500.

You can download the client from here http://phenixcoin.com

Changes that have been implemented are: Difficultly changes every 480 blocks max change is 80%. We have also added checkpoints as well.

Please help spread the word of the new client for PhenixCoin. Thank you for your support and happy mining!

   Thanks
   John

Now is 600??? I don't think so.
I don't know if this explorer is working properly: http://explorer.phenixcoin.com/chain/Phenixcoin

But the difficulty changes every 300 blocks, not 480.

It changes every 600 blocks, see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2524705

This takes ideally 15 hours (but can take much longer or less)

not to spam, but brand new pool up:

http://pxc.scryptmining.com

* stratum-only
* proportional payouts per block (no pplns warmup!)
* variable diff per worker (lots of hashpower? reduce your bandwidth. low hashpower? Don't get stung by a high static pool-wide diff!)

Come check us out
