I've been trying for weeks to get some Komodo I purchased/mined onto an exchange but I am having no luck. I have tried so many different versions of the Iguana/Agama app on both Windows and Mac and I can never get a transaction to send. It always get stuck at transmitting transaction and then eventually takes me back to the activate coin screen. I have been trying for weeks to send a transaction. I've tried refreshing balances right before sending and every other piece of advice I have seen. What am I missing?
It sounds like you have some edge case bug. There are so many variables in play that it takes time to iron out all of them. For example, recently we fixed a bug that was present in on out of ~500 KMD addresses.
If you would be so kind to
join our Slack and report the bug in more detail. Alternatively go to 'view' and then 'toggle developer tools' and select 'console'. Then try to send a transaction again, take a screenshot and PM me all the details including your operating system.
Because of these cases we recently came up with a temporary solution where you run Agama from a live USB stick or CD. See the guide below:
How to Run Agama From a Ubuntu 16.04 Bootable USB Drive
Since Komodo Native Mode is available for All major platforms (Winblows, OS X and Linux), I highly recommend on using Native Mode over other modes. Only use Basilisk Mode just in case you are impatient on downloading Blockchain.
And those who might have trouble sending transactions via Basilisk Mode in recent weeks should be aware that we had been dealing with Blockchain event. And Basilisk Mode depends on Notary Nodes. Whenever Notary Nodes are updating with latest Komodo versions and fixing blockchain, Basilisk Mode will either be slow or not responsive. Now that we are getting on more stable and solid network than before such issues should be expected to be lesser.
In case you are having issues with Native Mode may be doing resync of Komodo Blockchain might be helpful. You can try that by deleting blockchain data from Komodo Data Directory and just keeping your wallet.dat and komodo.conf there, and then start Native Mode in Agama Desktop Wallet.
You'll be deleting these files and directories only from Komodo Data directory:
blocks/
chainstate/
db.log
debug.log
fee_estimates.dat
komodostate
peers.dat
realtime
signedmasks
database/
komodofeed
komodod.pid
signedmasks
You can find Komodo Data directory for your OS at:
Linux: ~/.komodo/
OSX: ~/Library/Applications Support/Komodo/
Windows: %AppData%/Komodo/
I should warn NOT to delete your Assetchains and PAX folders there. Those have your individual wallet.dat for them.
Linux and OSX data directory will be hidden from Finder/File Explorers. So, find your ways to get to these hidden directories and clean the data.
Hope this helps.
