I installed the wallet for the first time today. I found it seemed to keep sticking on certain blocks while downloading the block chain. Closing the wallet, then restarting it each time it stuck fixed the problem.
Yeah, this is the issue I'm having. I'm stuck on 34646 and closing/reopening the wallet is having no effect. Coins still stake, but I'm stuck on the blockchain.
not sure if repairwallet helps in that case, otherwise downloading the entire blockchain from the beginning would be the option.
In order to speed up recovery we may upload, say every month, an image of the PMP blockchain and put the link in the OP.
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with POS. Not the first POS coin to have this issue. I believe some came up with hot fixes. Grain had a similar issue once, I believe Bosian produced a fix, if I recall correctly. I'll delete my blockchain and restart.
Mint had a similar problem and a fix was posted in the message linked below.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8500984In mint's case it was due to some nodes having downloaded block heights behind others. I checked my PreminePlus wallet's node's heights using getpeerinfo and found some are at different heights, as shown below.

The only node my wallet had at the full height was 62.75.210.162 so maybe you could add that to your conf file. Alternatively you could try using nothing but connect=62.75.210.162 in your conf file instead of addnode until you have fully synced, and then delete the connect= and restore the original addnode.
