Hello world, I need your help !
Just reinstalled Win7 64bit.
I downloaded the Dogecoin Core 1.10 ( dogecoin-1.10.0-win64-setup-unsigned.exe) and I wanted to use the copy of my old wallet.dat
When I launch the
dogecoin-qt.exe I have this error: "
couldn't open socket for incoming connections (socket returned error 87)" then "
Failed to listen on any port. Use -listen=0 if you want this."
I added
-listen=0 parameter to the
dogecoin-qt.exe shortcut from my desktop and I was able to run it.
Unfortunately I still have problems: "0 active connections to Dogecoin networks".
I downloaded even the the
bootstrap.dat from
https://bootstrap.chain.so/ but my dogecoin wallet is still 54 weeks behind...
The installation stuck at block 957001
In order to solve my issues, I did these without success:
- searched on Interned for help: no solution founded for my problem
- read docs about Dogecoin: the Troubleshooting section didn't help me too much
-
asked for help on Reddit.com :
NOBODY reply to me !
- firewall checked: OK, I even forwarded port 22556
- socks5: I don't use proxy connection
- created a dogecoin.conf file (which I didn't need it before on the old Dogecoin Core 1.08, the wallet synced properly) :
addnode=162.246.5.128:22556
addnode=104.236.149.112:22556
addnode=68.203.198.73:22556
addnode=91.121.172.69:22556
addnode=37.59.19.37:22556
addnode=83.87.162.162:22556
addnode=122.57.103.228:22556 - added the
-listen=1 in .conf file : still no connections
- ran from Debug console the command:
addnode eu.bootstrap.dogecoin-foundation.org:22556 onetry : still no connections
Have no ideas how to solve this mess.
BTW:
I had the same problem with my Bitcoin Core installation too !!
