Solved it. Guess the latest version is not in the .msi on gridcoin.us. We really need these links to be up to date. Also the .zip is 404...

Upgraded in the end and all is good

I've got plenty of nodes now, connecting just fine. However around block 62000 the wallet restarts. rebuilts the blockchain from a snapshot and starts again at 9 or 10 weeks ago. I just went to the gym for two hours and it was back again. Probably for the 10th time now...

How do I solve this?!

Is there are restartwallet in your gridcoin.conf? Just in case...

anybody have a list of updated nodes?

addnode=76.187.184.27
addnode=66.187.94.194
addnode=76.74.177.224
addnode=84.125.196.167
addnode=71.233.139.62
addnode=72.92.48.105

I have these and working great. Not sure if there are better nodes or smth too.

I found these myself:

addnode=98.114.181.178
addnode=76.187.184.27
addnode=66.187.94.194
addnode=76.74.177.224
addnode=84.125.196.167
addnode=71.233.139.62
addnode=72.92.48.105
addnode=72.208.65.226
addnode=77.64.220.124
addnode=50.152.78.46
addnode=207.229.136.136


I just upgraded to the latest version but it has already shut itself down and rebuilt from snapshot twice? Starts building the blockchain around 38000. What should I do? Just wait??

i have nodes from the instruction page since 5 weeks.   What are these nodes good for?


It helps to get connections to other nodes in the network e.g. to sync the blockchain, usually not needed as the client should find them by itself.

ok thats much better. I also found the cpu tutorial on cryptocointalk.

But I still have that red message saying "Boinc utilization low", what am I doing wrong? is Boinc v7.x my problem?

I also read on cryptocointalk that you need to get 1 GRC to send an initial beacon out? is that still the case? Not reading anything about that here?

Yes, you need some GRC to send out beacons for CPU mining.  Beacons are ~0.08 GRC each.
You said you have it showing 50% utilization right?  That's normal...you need some time running BOINC for it to gradually build up credits.  When you get to 1000 average daily credits you'll get to 100% utilization.

Ok, I got one accepted share from GPU mining and got some grc for that so I could send the beacon this night.

My avg. daily payout just changed to 42, thats better than zero. But for GPU mining I still only have 1 accepted share over 12 hours, should I change to pool mining?

And is BOINC also using my GPU beside CGMINER when working on Milkyway project? What is cgminer actually working on?

small issue to report:  when you have sync issues the wallet will go into a 'safe mode'.  The issue is that the debug console seems to not let you do commands when it is in this state.  When I type 'upgrade' in the console it gives a safe mode error message code -2 and doesn't execute the upgrade.  I think you should still be able to execute the upgrade command at least, even in the 'safe mode'.
