More precisely here, it's the boost library headers you're missing.

I think that's just a fqdn and correct. Dns has dots on the end

Bug report:

I have updated DNS configuration for one of the registered names and inserted a .me domain into Translate name field. But on save a dot was appended to the name (it became "smth.me." although I wrote "smth.me"). I corrected it using “Custom configuration” tab but it still cost me 0.005 NMC, and thus I believe it’s a bug.

Also it includes a patch that made downloading of the blockchain 8 times faster on a hard disk based system (tested for the first 20,000blocks). Also it's not thrashing the disk any more and is generally more responsive.

Are you going to push that into main? khal needs all the help he can get but not sure if this is the right way to be going about it.

Well, the performance improving changes are only six lines: https://github.com/phelixnmc/namecoin-qt/commit/9a832fa4b010420990578e18dd0753e9d13366b6

The EasyWinBuilder changes pretty much only make things compliant again with the Bitcoin-Qt directory structure.

I am also a little worried about us having two diverging Namecoin branches. We should bring them back together as soon as possible.

I'm well aware of this ...

Thanks snailbrain, nice to see some work being done on Namecoin. I think khal should update http://dot-bit.org/Main_Page to reflect the recent progress (especially the project tasks section which is way outdated)

New Namecoin EasyWinBuilder version here: https://github.com/phelixnmc/namecoin-qt

It is creating a disassembly hash of Namecoin-Qt, please let me know if you get the same hash
(see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2766894)

Also it includes a patch that made downloading of the blockchain 8 times faster on a hard disk based system (tested for the first 20,000blocks). Also it's not thrashing the disk any more and is generally more responsive. Grin

Please review and tell me if you consider my changes safe (they are all stolen from Bitcoin). I think the main problem was repeatedly flushing some databases to disk.

Note that I have not tested this intensively yet. Backup your wallets!

Just curious. Until downloading blocks around 90000~100000 the client was really unresponsive, but then no longer so.

It's probably because those first blocks have little or no tx data stored in them so the client is going full tilt validating blocks and it is difficult for interrupts to get processing time ... probably better to just wait until you up to date as there is not much you can actually do with a new client (and wallet) until that point anyway.

My spoon is too big!

Why does my windows client keep doing this? If I restart it, it synchronizes but leave it for a while and I come back to this.

Want to build your own Namecoin-Qt on Windows?

Give this a try: https://github.com/phelixnmc/namecoin-qt EasyWinBuilder Namecoin

Download, run easywinbuilder/__all_easywinbuilder.bat and follow instructions.

The code itself is unchanged in comparison to Snailbrain's version.

General info for the Bitcoin version:

Thank you very much!

Problem solved!

I just deleted all the ~/Library Application Support/Namecoin stuff created by namecoind, then put wallet.dat from backup there, rebooted and started Namecoin-Qt. Now it’s redownloading the blockchain which I suppose will take some time, but it shows my namecoins correctly.

Great! And good point, I think the namecoind build that's out there from OS X is built from a different version of the codebase than Namecoin-Qt, so Namecoin-Qt may not be able to read some of namecoind's data, and vice versa.

Done.

Thanks! This is a threading problem that's happening while the code is initializing your wallet, but it's unclear to me whether it's a bug in the threading code or a problem with your wallet. In either case it will probably be fixed in the next version, when the Bitcoin 0.8 code is merged in (which includes totally rewritten threading code). Unfortunately, I've never seen this particular crash before, so it's hard to say what the underlying cause is.

Is this a new wallet, created by Namecoin-Qt? Or did you copy in a wallet.dat from another client?

Can you post or PM me the crash report (the one that OS X wants to send to Apple)?
