ok the PoW mining is back... if you can not sync with addnode above, you need to download this file here, please read the following before you download the file:
https://mega.co.nz/#!Mk1HzYpA!eeddQXV3DvRHNbSMLeVuLycfde8sm5mFH-qtlEgxUQAThis is a big zip file (31.7M), which contains 3 parts:
- A Blockchain directory which contains the correct blockchain.
- A file main.cpp, that contains the above code change.
- A windows qt client (grain-qt-withblock38847reject.exe), contains the above change.
If you can not sync with addnode, the first thing you should try is to replace the blockchain. This is what you do:
1. Quit qt client.
2. Go to Grain config dir. create a new directory (for example called oldchain), move the database dir, blk0001.dat, blkindex.dat files to the new dir you created, then move these files from Blockchain in the downloaded unzipped file, to config dir. This way you can always go back to your old chain if anything happens.
3. Now start your normal qt client (no need to use the downloaded one), always with the addnodes as above, you should sync and then start to mine.
Only if it is still, not working, then you need to move the blockchain to another dir (like above), and with addnode as above, and start grain-qt-withblock38847reject.exe file. Now it should sync from the scratch (will take a while to sync all).
Then you can start mine.
Let me know if anyone has issue.
Good mining
Doesn't seem to be able to sync. I replaced the three files and it says it's catching up but it's been stuck on block 39349 for 15 minutes.
