I have restarted the client it still is stuck on 56 weeks? Wasn't trying to spam, I just include it as a signature, besides we do accept namecoin for products so it seemed appropriate. But I understand and thank you for the help

what is the last few lines in your debug.log?

how many connections do you have? (help/debug)

For some reason today it just went thru, after 4 days of trying....hmm strange? Now if your mining with eligius and put in merge mining, i guess you only get paid on payout times correct? Is there an area to see what namecoin amount you have?

My namecoin wallet is stuck at 56 weeks for syncing, this is the first namecoin wallet I've downloaded. Any suggestions?

Thanks how did one survive though? They were all created together? Seems like only one got renewed.

I assume you modified the value - that is the same as renewing.

whats the lookup command? name_show? is this what bitmessage does?

Probably. There are other commands that let you get the information, though.

looks like name_show https://github.com/domob1812/PyBitmessage/blob/master/src/namecoin.py#L82

ah, that's the full fingerprint for my gpg key. Thanks for the tip!

Where's that? Do you have the link to the old zip? Let me delete the database and try the old one.

They shouldn't be expired, they were created with the only one left. Only difference is the rest had no data.

The old version will should make no difference. You will have to redownload the blockchain to use it.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3436752

If you dare pm or bm (BM-NB81CEbJSvP5ScNtJXTP2CzRrfQkKVvh) me on or more of the missing names and I will take a look.

Try to dump the privkey for the address that currently holds the name.

wth youre right 3.72 is the same, i swear they were still there

they disappear once it hits a certain block

It looks like they expired. They are not even taken by somebody else. You are aware that you have to renew names every 36000 blocks (~200days)?

If you are not fully synced it is possible that the names still show up because the client does not know yet that they expired.

I would suggest for you to try and reregister. Note that some of the namespaces you used are obsolete, though. Currently d/ and id/ are active.

In the GUI click help --> "debug window" --> console tab then enter "name_history d/yourfancyname" to get some information about it.

many of my names seem to have disappeared after the last update

Looks a bit like you did some experiments with directory names and then mixed up older and newer versions of your wallet.dat backups. What does the "validateaddress" command give you on the addresses of these names? "ismine"=true?

i dont think so

yes it says true

if i delete the database, they appear but disappear at or close to synced

out of many, only 1 shows, i dont think they expired as 1 is still good, the other may have no data tho, are those filtered?

did you try to start with -rescan, like

Code:

namecoin-qt -rescan

still gone ive also tried deleting everything but the wallet

Did they expire? What does name_history say? I don't see how the update could be directly responsible.

How long a name will stay until it expires?

36000 Blocks. This currently equals to around 200 days.

200 days? my god, i'm sure many people are going to lose their domain names or IDs very soon,
it should be a year or more than a year and stop resolving after a year.

I bet some people would like to be able to pay for longer registration periods,
even if it's more expensive than just renewing every year,
just to have the security to not run into trouble.

what's the official fee plan? 0.01 forever and for TX follow bitcoin fees?

name_update: error: {"code":-5,"message":"Invalid namecoin address"}

This shows that you made a syntax error. The error message "Invalid namecoin address" is displayed only when you transfer a name to somebody else. This is not what you want.

Check the value field of your name_update command. I think there is a space or a special character in your value field.
