New p2pool for Gridcoin, still on testnet only for now, but so far looks like everything is working. This will be the first method of mining GRC that will be share based on Boinc RAC (recent average credit). So you won't have to solve whole blocks anymore, now you get paid just like any other scrypt coin pool.

Cryptanalyst castrated by his government, 1952
For the last hour or so, version v2.1.4.6-g71-prod has been trying to rebuild the blockchain on one of my machines (35 weeks behind). Most of the time it shows "no block source available - 0 active connections to Gridcoin network." Occasionally it gets one connection, then loses it after a minute or three.

Before the upgrade it was in sync.

I haven't seen that behaviour before. Any suggestions?

Edit: no change after another 1.5+ hours. Along the way, I did another upgrade (nothing changed) then cleaned out the relevant appdata files except the wallet and restarted (nothing changed).

Edit: update - left it on all night - no change - 35 weeks behind, 0-1 active connections. Did one more upgrade just now and it started to sync normally, 11 active connections and going strong atm!

someone can get me lastest version in rar or zip? I mean installed . For replace

Just download the current version here: http://www.gridcoin.us/download/gridcoin.msi

For upgrading by debug console make sure gridcoin is running with administrator rights!

after i try upgrade client, in progress "upgrade sqlite3.dll" i has red error (((

after esecuted resetcpid nothing change in mining console. I has BINC magnitude 0.
But all time i see MD5 BOINC hash... maybe i must insert MD5 in my name in configuration "milkyway"?

If you are still using the old version try to use the download from gridcoin.us instead. if it still fails uninstall the old version first
But it lastest downloaded version

It works fine for both cpu minging and gpu minging.
I'm solo mining.

My cpu is  E3 1230V2.It has 8  threads,6 threads for BOINC,1 for POB mining.

You need verified RAC above 100 to cpu mine.

Why CPIDs is same?

Thats because these projects are related to the same mail address, if this is the one you used in your gridcoin.conf you have 4 projects being candidates for gridcoin. Once again, only if you have at least 1 valid project you will be able to mine. A valid BOINC project for gridcoin does have the following characteristics:
- at least 100 RAC
- the mailaddress you used for registration of the BOINC project is same as in the gridcoin.conf
- you joined team gridcoin for that project (you did only for milkyway according to your data)
- it needs to be on the gridcoin whitelist (seti@home beta test is not whitelisted)

None of your project listed above fullfills these requirements so you are not able mine.

Regarding the boincappdir=C:\Program Files\BOINC\ boincdatadir=C:\ProgramData\BOINC\, these parameters should only be needed in case you installed BOINC to a non-default location in your case it looks like the default location. Make sure that you correct or remove them.

change boincappfolder to boincappdir and boincdatafolder to boincdatadir

you have to type "execute resetcpids" in console for that command to work!

after i try upgrade client, in progress "upgrade sqlite3.dll" i has red error (((

after esecuted resetcpid nothing change in mining console. I has BINC magnitude 0.
But all time i see MD5 BOINC hash... maybe i must insert MD5 in my name in configuration "milkyway"?
I understund about "execute resetcpids" i try... but nothing happen. But console say me

change boincappfolder to boincappdir and boincdatafolder to boincdatadir

you have to type "execute resetcpids" in console for that command to work!

after i try upgrade client, in progress "upgrade sqlite3.dll" i has red error (((

after esecuted resetcpid nothing change in mining console. I has BINC magnitude 0.
But all time i see MD5 BOINC hash... maybe i must insert MD5 in my name in configuration "milkyway"?
I understund about "execute resetcpids" i try... but nothing happen. But console say me

What projects must be added? And must be added on GridRepublic site or BOINC Manager?

The listed/available projects can be check by using command "listitem projects" in gridocin debug console. Its up to you how you add projects as long they are visible and working in BOINC Manager/Gridcoin client.
