also made Rpcuser lowercase and re ran make -f makefile.unix and this morning I saw this error message:

Should I start fresh as this attempt is after the make error
Thanks for the detailed error link. In it I see: "virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory"
Your Pi ran out of memory.
You may need up to 1 GB of RAM to compile. I am not sure of the specs of your Pi. If you have only 500 MB of RAM or less, you will need to mount a swap partition and use it during compile. This will use a portion of your hard drive (be it USB external or whatnot) as RAM. If your Pi does have 1 GB, you need to first free resources. Exit any programs that are not needed, then try compiling again.
You do not need this much RAM for sterlingcoind to run. But you do need it to compile.
If you need help making a swap, a quick google search yielded me these instructions: http://raspberrypimaker.com/adding-swap-to-the-raspberrypi/ which look to be easy to follow.
I hope this helps!
EDIT: Yes, you should start fresh. Since it ran out of memory during the build process, some objects may be left built incorrectly/incompletely. The next attempt might falsely assume they are correct.
EDIT 2: Sorry, I see now you are using swap and it looks like you did adjust it. Yes, you need to just start fresh and you should be good.
I managed to get SterlingCoin compiled and running on Raspberry Pi following the instructions I posted earlier. I was initially using a Raspberry Pi B. Today I managed to complete all the steps using a Raspberry Pi 3 (newest one). Thank's everyone for your help!
Happy to help anyone that is trying to set this up.
Does anyone know the commands to check if the wallet has synced successfully, enter my password to start staking and check how many coins I have in my wallet?
TIA!
