If I understand correctly, downloading block-chain data (which is a 1,3 GB file) is not necessary. One can just  (1)  backup the file wallet.dat, (2) install the new m-wallet  leaving the old folder Magi unchanged (3) open the new m-wallet and wait until it syncs.

Is this correct? Is the old block-chain folder stored in the Magi folder still usable? Will it sync correctly?  Thanks


Yes, NOT necessary to redownload chain data.

Thanks. I think this in another folder...something like users/user/appdata/roaming/magi?
This is correct.
Thanks. Better than waiting for 2 days to sync. And thanks for your hard work!

I am sure I am not the first person to ever ask this but how do I apply the block chain zip file after I down load it?


There is a README.md inside the file that contains a brief instruction:

Quick startup II (replacing the block-chain):

0) Backup wallet.dat;
1) Download block-chain data from here: http://m-core.org/bin/block-chain;
2) Delete all of the contents under the .magi (unix-like system) or Magi (OS X or Windows) folder, except for wallet.dat and magi.conf;
3) Unzip the file and copy the folders under "m-block-chain" into the .magi (unix-like system) or Magi (OS X or Windows) folder;
4) Launch the new wallet.

i'm afraid i'm still getting an error while starting the wallet with staking enabled. was that supposed to be fixed as well or is that another thing?
EDIT: started again and it's working fine now.
no worries

It is compatible with the prior version so you don't remove except running the latest. You can also download binaries.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I just want to make sure I understand completey.

When I initally compiled v1.4.5.2, I used git clone https://github.com/magi-project/magi/ to obtain the files.  Now, I know that if I try and do that now, the process will stop/fail since the 'magi' folder already exists.

So, I have made a new folder 'magi-1453' and used git clone to get the new files into there. Are you saying that I just need to copy and replace the files from 'magi-1453' into 'magi' and I should be good to go? I don't need to reconfigure as a service or anything?

What about the files  in ./magi which were created when the magid daemon was first run? Can these all remain the same?

You can go to old folder and do git pull. .magi is just fine, not necessary touch any thing.

m-wallet version v1.4.5.3

v1.4.5.3
=============
Bug fix in difficulty adjustment algo, i.e., "MagiQuantumWave"; the bug manifests as an improper data conversion when carrying out a time-domain average because of the trival time difference between blocks.

Qt-Wallet and Daemon:

https://github.com/magi-project/magi/releases
http://m-core.org/download/

Source code: https://github.com/magi-project/magi/

Windows: http://m-core.org/bin/m-wallet-1.4.5.3/m-wallet-1.4.5.3-win.zip
Linux: http://m-core.org/bin/m-wallet-1.4.5.3/m-wallet-1.4.5.3-linux.tar.gz
Mac OS X: http://m-core.org/bin/m-wallet-1.4.5.3/m-wallet-1.4.5.3-osx.zip
FreeBSD: http://m-core.org/bin/m-wallet-1.4.5.3/m-wallet-1.4.5.3-freebsd.tar.gz

Latest Block chain (1603558): http://m-core.org/bin/block-chain/


=============
Regarding this version: we have initial scheduled hard fork here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.27192013. We passed the fork point but stuck at 1606987; it was found improper data conversion that is used to deal with difficulty adjustment gets zero when handling small number; diff-adjust takes place using average over a time domain. Many blocks emitted between 1606950 - 1606987 causes tiny difference between their block time, that then hits on the bug.



Thank you for all your hard work!

Thanks for being so quick with the updates!

It will slow down for sure as other pools come online... but getting a jump is great!
