here for everyone who is stuck in the wrong fork.
This (https://www.dropbox.com/s/koc5o9akrfva9ug/PhiloBlockchain-8190.zip) is a backup of my blockchain which was at the time at a block around 8190.
Here some proof that I'm on "the right" fork:
hero ~ # ./philosopherstone/src/philosopherstoned getinfo
{
"version" : "v1.2.0.0",
"protocolversion" : 60006,
"walletversion" : 60000,
"balance" : x.x,
"newmint" : x.xx,
"stake" : x.xx,
"blocks" : 8196,
"moneysupply" : 797097.47749300,
"connections" : 8,
"proxy" : "",
"ip" : "x.x.x.x",
"difficulty" : 1.41826091,
"testnet" : false,
"keypoololdest" : 1375034668,
"keypoolsize" : 101,
"paytxfee" : 0.01000000,
"errors" : ""
}
additionally a few of my peers which are also on the right fork and not stuck on "the old" 6xxx chain.
addnode=24.6.21.198
addnode=46.150.89.173
addnode=64.120.17.149
addnode=70.29.193.48
addnode=125.79.142.201
Some instructions on how to use this backup!
- Backup your wallet.dat file and move it out of the Philosopherstone data directory
- Verify that you are actually running version 1.2.0.0 using the philosopherstoned getinfo command
- Unzip and copy blk*.dat files into your Philosopherstone data directory
- Remove any database/log* files and the peers.dat file from your Philosopherstone data directory
- Run Philosopherstoned with the addnode entries from above in your conf file
- Watch the debug log (tail -f debug.log for example) until the sync has caught up with the current block
- Stop Philosopherstoned
- copy your wallet into the Philosopherstone data directory
- issue Philosopherstone command -rescan to get everything recognized ...
YOU SHOULD BE FINE NOW
![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
What this does:
- Resets the Philosopherstone block database and block database index to the state it was in at the time the snapshot was taken.
- With the -rescan command all your transactions should get recognized unless they have been made on the fork ... those will be discarded (they vanish without a trace)
Hope this helps!
