Topic: Bitcoin Core Wallet hasn't synced since fork (Read 737 times)

You'll probably need to resync your Core from scratch as it is likely that your ABC install has "corrupted" the blocks in your Core data directory by writing BCC blocks into it.

If you want to continue to use Core and ABC, you'll need to take steps to separate them to prevent this happening again. For instance, use different "datadir" for each application to keep blocks folders and wallet files separate.

Hey guys, i had installed the bitcoin ABC wallet during the time of the fork and seems that my bitcoin core is messed up too. It is unsynchronized since the date of the fork.
Any tips what i should do here?
Cheers

Thanks for the replies. I was able to recover it to Electrum. It was because I installed BitcoinABC. Lesson learned. Gonna use electrum from here anyways. Thanks for all the help!

Did you happen to install BitcoinABC at all? I believe that if you use the default settings during install, it will install to the default BitcoinCore directory... If you installed it and opened it, it may have messed up your Bitcoin Core install

Block "000000000000000000102b57d98d471df579a4c65c9356907b9c1d39ef8f5c0a" is a valid block on the Bitcoin main chain, its likely not an issue that is caused by the fork.

There are three possible reasons:
1. Your peers are deliberately sending you malformed blocks for some reason. Try go to Help>Debug Window> Console and key in 2. Your ISP has made your internet connection drop packets coming from Bitcoin nodes.
3. Your blockchain is corrupted. Go to your folder where Bitcoin Core store blocks and delete everything EXCEPT WALLET.DAT. This will result in your client synchronizing all the way from the start.

Bitcoin Core Wallet wont sync since the fork. Seams to be something about invalid headers. Was wondering if someone could help me out. I posted the debug file below. Thanks in advance
