Hello,

I have often problems with the wallet (hobonickelsd, running on Ubuntu Server 14.04, compiled from latest git source).

It is often stuck on something like this (snip from debug.log):
Code:
05/07/14 10:13:40 ProcessSyncCheckpoint: pending for sync-checkpoint 0000000002bde252b09a26e27d6c96d5594ca6340d6ff2de5138ca8a1f90d715

and it takes 100% CPU for a very long time or almost indefinitely without doing anything apparently useful.

When I restart it, it can run for few hours or even days fine before this happens again.

Any idea?

is this a fresh setup, meaning are you downloading the blockchain from scratch?

if so, it might take a while and to catch up and those are normal check IMO.

you could try to download a "bootsrapped" version of the blockchain and start from there.

I've been trying to sell a couple of my imported vehicles for BTC, LTC or QRK.  Thinking I should add HBN to the payment options

Um yeah thanks for reposting word for word my post from a couple days ago.  Weirdo.   Tongue

I was going to say I seriously doubt they are keeping the bulk of the coins in a hot wallet. There have also been issues/exploits with malleability concerning POS coins... remember the whole blackcoin CryptoRush debacle?

Do you have a link to this?  I'd like to read about it.

This is the main thread that was started about it back in March, just keep in mind you have to filter through all the lies and bullshit that CR tried to push on people. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/official-blackcoin-statement-from-cryptorush-very-shocking-information-529779

There was a discussion of how the issue with malleability related to POS coins was updated by the major exchanges like Cryptsy early on so they didn't have any huge problems.

Is this for real... Too long to read all for now, but it seemed like they messed up more than a bug in PoS!

I always enjoy seeing more and more merchant acceptance. I'll get the website updated with new info.

I am also pleased to announce another merchant.

A VPN Service: http://www.blueyvpn.com/

At checkout just click "Pay with Alt Coin" and let them know you would like to pay with HBN. They will quote you a price and an address.

I am not affiliated with them, but if you have any issues, please let us know.

Thanks!


oh this look like a nice service ... I think I will give it a try Smiley

thanks for sharing

Cryptsy, for all its faults, has actually turned out to be the most reliable.

Please don't use cryptsy and reliable in the same sentence. Those guys can't keep their PHS wallet online for 2 days in a row.

Not saying it is great, but so far, and it has been around for quite some time, nobody has directly lost money.

Put it this way, if I want to keep some funds parked in an exchange to take a quick opportunity, I will put on Cryptsy only.

I get the assert failure in GetStakeModifierChecksum if hobonickels-qt is compiled without -std=gnu++11 , if I compile with -std=gnu++11 , it just works.


Where do you add that?? At the top of hobonickels-qt.pro?

QMAKE_CXXFLAGS in the .pro file.
btw. I have /usr/bin/gcc which is symlink to gcc.sh, where I have
Code:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/x86_64-redhat-linux-gcc "$@" -O3 -march=native -std=gnu11
and similarly for g++ → g++.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/x86_64-redhat-linux-g++ "$@" -O3 -march=native -std=gnu++11

when installing new gcc, I run newgcc.sh in /usr/bin  dir:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
rm -f gcc g++ c++
ln -s gcc.sh gcc
ln -s g++.sh g++
ln -s g++ c++
gcc -v 2>&1|tail -n 1

it will be nice if exchange will pay us the stake on our coins if we have them there instead of the wallets.

This could be done, but it would require a good deal of book keeping.

Additionally to gain interest those coins would need to sit on the network hot, and use up CPU power, taking away from deposits/withdraws.  There is risk to an exchange doing this, as such I would guess the majority of the coins are in cold storage, and those that are hot, are set with -reserveblance=999999999
I remember the times when NVC users at BTC-E had issues with deposits and withdrawals coins to/from exchange for several days.
As it turned out, the exchange is for real used its wallet for staking, and when too many inputs were originated (and many unconfirmed stakes, nvc uses 520 confirms for newly minted coins), the exchange's wallet started being laggy.

So, eventually, after consultations with Balthazar, they turned off staking on the exchange to avoid such problems.

What happens when I try to send coins to an address(for example cryptsy) but there are 0 confirms? The amount has been minused from my wallet but it didnt show in the other account? Is it possible to lose them?

Likely no. The wallet will try to resend again randomly here soon enough.   If after a few hours you still don't have any confirmations you can try to run checkwallet, or perhaps start with -rescan a final method would be to try -salvagewallet. One of these should work.

Is this still an issue?

I just updated the rpc command rsendtx.  https://github.com/Tranz5/HoboNickels/commit/a26f801dd4880a1c7a31c2fda9f821510adb3743

It wasn't working, but now should be in good shape.

I was trying those commands but had no sense of if they were working, I was about to post again in this thread as I didnt think they worked after about an hour, then after going downstairs(20 minutes) something happened because when I came back It had its first few confirmations Smiley. I also tried the resendtx command(wasn't sure if I needed to add the tx number to the command aswell) but wasnt sure if there was any effect. Thanks for the help Smiley
