Peng, your solution worked flawlessly. My wallet immediately showed it was synching to the 9000 blocks when I started it up.

GREAT work. That will make a lot of people happy.

A lot of people have worked a lot on this set of issues in the last few days, pretty much non-stop. It was a pleasure watching everyone work together.


edit: and it is synching FAST!

WALLET SYNCING FIX

I have been having the same problem as many other people here where the wallet won't sync past block 8786. I have tried all of the fixes posted here and none worked. I did the following and my wallet is now working perfectly.

If you go to Help->Debug Window->Console in your wallet and type "getpeerinfo" you will get a list of all the nodes your wallet is connected to. This is where the wallet gets the blockchain info from. For each entry look at the "startingheight" number, this shows what block that particular node thinks we are on.

If you have lots of nodes that say: "startingheight" : 8786, or some other number in the 8000s then your wallet is going to get confused as it is getting conflicting information.

I simply went through and listed all the nodes that were showing the correct block number. (as of writing we are on 9658)

Now you want to stop your wallet from automatically searching for nodes to connect to, so it won't find and connect to these 'bad' nodes - this is done by using "connect=IP" instead of "addnode=IP".

So, to get your wallet working do exactly the following:

1) Shut down the wallet completely.
2) Go to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\cleanwatercoin.
3) Delete everything EXCEPT wallet.dat and cleanwatercoin.conf.
4) Open cleanwatercoin.conf and delete everything then paste in the following and save.

connect=176.14.88.234
connect=107.170.217.4
connect=67.82.168.57
connect=97.102.24.119
connect=188.226.199.223
connect=water.suprnova.cc
connect=95.85.45.65
connect=107.170.209.91
connect=173.209.34.2
connect=68.168.113.90

5) Restart the wallet.

Your wallet will now download the blockchain ONLY from those 'good' nodes that are specified. This will take a little while, be patient but it should fully sync eventually.
Please post other 'good' nodes that you find so they can be added to the conf file in future.

Please let me know if this worked for you.

*edit* node list updated 13/4/14

Mine also gets stuck on 8786.

Given all the distress trying to synch the blockchain, I've created a blockchain bootstrap.

Yes and thanks for all your help in IRC Vox, you have been awesome.

Just want to add, these are workarounds, not fixes. The fixes are coming, but coders are coding when off work and have time at night.

This fix will work.  Or if you keep reading a few posts down you will see a fix that uses correct nodes.


Thanks to everyone for working on this.

I am stuck as well, after it worked last night. Not sure what is going on, but when it was synching last time I wiped and re-installed, I saw that it was telling me that "xxxx of 8687" was downloaded. When it reached the 7000 block, the message changed to it was downloading "xxxx of 8786.  So basically it reversed the 687 and made it a 786.

So is there some weird loop at the 8687/8786? Are they mixed up with each other?

Done and done, sevreal times...still stuck

The hardfork has already happened. The OP just needs to update the title and first post lol

Whats up with the hard fork coming?

Make sure you delete all files associated with the wallet (except wallet.dat and conf) before you download the new wallet and it should work. If it gets stuck try restarting the wallet a few times.

It should just be deposits and withdrawals that are disabled. The market of existing coins on bittrex can still occur.

That's odd because market history shows trade after you posted that screenshot (see c/p from Bittrex below). Could it be issue with their platform instead of the CWC wallet?
