Just downloaded the BTCD- wallet on windows. But it isn't syncing. Closed and reopened a couple times, didn't help. Any ideas?

Been answered many times before in this thread. Check the OP.

Thanks for the advice. Problem is I am still not getting it synced. I followed all steps in the OP, but I guess things go wrong at step 7.
Step 7 says; "7) Download the Config file from OP and put into wallet folder."
After following steps 1 to 6, I have in my appdata.roaming>bitcoindark a folder, called backup and I have a wallet.dat. No point 7 says; Download the Config file from OP and put into wallet folder. First, I think my wallet.dat isn't a folder and second I don't succeed in getting the conf in the wallet.dat.

Maybe someone can help.

the folder where the wallet.dat file is located is what they mean.
Copy the config file in that same folder so you have both the wallet.dat file and the config file in the same folder.

the doc/ is outdated, that's why I opened an issue on github. It's missing these:

3) sudo apt-get install curl

4) sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

the qt dependencies.

also, "build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \    libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \" works while "sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev" just gives me a bunch of extra stuff I don't need. I guess that's fine if you're looking for simplicity of installation.

Even then, I'd still get a qt program that won't sync unless i follow step 15 in the list.

It's not as simple as ... read doc file, follow steps, get qt program, use program successfully .. is all. A bunch of lines in there still say testcoin.

I see the OP is updated with me-proof instructions, pretty neat

Admittedly, it was a low quality post, claiming only "You're beautiful Cheesy"

So I guess it was deletion worthy.

I just don't like being used to push other people's mindless agenda's, so I got a little mad when that almost just happened.

Though, I guess I kinda deserved it when the first thing I posted here was me bitching that I couldn't compile without playing guess the dependency.

It's fine though, all that would come out of it would be that I made a sockpuppet account and continue posting here, if people can't restrain themselves.

You'll never know, but I will. So I guess it comes down to - will we throw names at each other, or will I lie to you, or will we just accept that I'm not the one here pushing much of an agenda, so long as you don't spend time researching all my post history looking for the type of ice cream i like?



there's also a handy section in the source... doc:

https://github.com/laowais/bitcoindark/blob/master/doc/build-unix.txt

There's no magical dependancies that only btcd requires, it's pretty typical for any coin.

If you're taking the route of compiling, check the docs so understand what you're getting into is all.

For anyone has the same problem with synchronization like me (see above posts), fsb4000 at bitcoindark.slack.com has a solution:
replace your peers.dat (same folder where wallet.dat) with this peers.dat https://yadi.sk/d/kN7-KnNsewy45
It works for me.
Again, thanks fsb4000 so much!

hm, a little odd that the BCT mods are fiddling with the posts.
I briefly saw your post of gratitude that got deleted.

Still, I'm sure we can post without trying to insult each other here.

Completely the opposite, ya filty trashbag Cheesy

Usually, I reserve only .0000075 of the total currency, unless I think it has a chance. I don't even post on the thread if it's not in my bluelist, of which there's around ~60 others.

So go bark up another tree, dog.



And, that was compiled with the post just a few hours ago. I had mentioned that I now loved that person, which the BTC mods deleted.

So if you want to put your misdirected hate at someone, go bitch at Theymos for limiting the conversation.

Edit: Just gonna lay it on a little thicker for ya:

this is me: https://github.com/laowais/bitcoindark/issues/3

Plus, I just staked the crap out of a block: 3cef7d26017ef483895a43a4e67e27b35ab1c18221c59c31000f76118e85d526-000

It is very difficult to synchronize with BTCD!
My PC was crashed while BTCD is staking.I restarted the computer and found some BTCD lost.
I decided to reinstalled BTCD: delete all files and folders except my wallet, excute BitcoinDark with old .conf file but it can't synchronize with the network: 0 active connections.
I tried with the new version of BTCD and the OP conf. but it still not work.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!



Nothing is lost, you just need to sync your Client.

If you PC crashed it is possible that you don't have enough ram or other things interfere with it. Try to use the shown nodes on the first page then you may get some connection over some time.

Don't expect that it will work in 5 mins.. let it find nodes for 30 mins...
Thanks for your reply!
I know that I need to re-sync my Client, but I forgot to try rescan instead of reinstalling BTCD-qt.
I am confused because my old .conf file has worked perfectly but now it is not. Adding the new nodes on the first page also didn't help even though I run the program many hours. Maybe Devs hide seed nodes hic hic

So tired of fucking w shitcoins.

Why, after 460 pages, do I have to even guess what dependencies I'm missing to build BTCD.

Also, why isn't there a binary ffs?

page 428  Smiley

To get the basic qt wallet running on a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.1:

1) Ctrl+Alt+T to open terminal

2) sudo apt-get update

3) sudo apt-get install curl

4) sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

5) sudo apt-get install qt5-default qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev-tools \
    build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
    libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
    libssl-dev libdb++-dev

6) sudo apt-get install git

7) git clone https://github.com/laowais/bitcoindark

8.) cd bitcoindark

9) qmake "USE_UPNP=-"

10) make -j 3 -f Makefile

You should be good to launch the client now if there were no major errors along the way.

11) go to bitcoindark folder and double-click bitcoindark-qt.exe to launch client

12) go to home folder and press Ctrl+H to show hidden files

13) open hidden .Bitcoindark folder in order to access your wallet.dat file

14) create new text file within hidden .Bitcoindark folder and rename it to BitcoinDark.conf

15) copy/paste configuration file from bitcointalk OP into this text file

16) change "user" and "pass" in BitcoinDark.conf file to something unique and save it

do we have masternode wallet

You're in the wrong thread. There is no such gimmick called masternodes with BTCD.

it just, mining is really expensive, And I was under the impression it is a better way to earn btcd coin

Try the first post. Helps if you mention your OS and errors. It's usually pretty obvious what deps your missing as it'll say it can't find such and such.

No one can read minds.
