Consensus mechanism requires working TF.

You can delete /nxt_db/ folder to redownload blockchain from scratch

Great, thanks for that, should I just delete the entire folder?

Versions 0.7.x use nxt_db for the blockchain storage

Ok guys, as usual I've jumped the gun!!  

I have found my NXT!! Presumably my Pi is on a forked chain and my p/w is logging me into the wrong account, everything is fine on windoze.

Anyway, problem solved, experience gained - thanks for your help.

I would say one thing however, the NXT client needs to be much more friendly and easier to install for noobs, I can imagine it being quite intimidating upon first acquaintance.

Thanks again you cats  

EDIT:

OK, one more thing.......

To re-download the blockchain on the Pi, I understand that I need to delete blockchain.nxt, transactions.nxt and a few backups, but where are these files? I can't see them in the NXT folder and a search doesn't find them. Have the filenames changed during a version update?

Did you wait until complete blockchain loads?

Thanks for the quick reply.

I am using 0.7.5 which I d/loaded from nxtcrypto.org.

Would being on a fork mean my password logs me into the wrong account number? Remember, I can't find anything in the explorer either.

I am presently putting the client on my Windows machine to see if that helps.

If it shows zero transactions it probably means you are on a fork or something. Make sure you update to latest NRS 0.7.5

Reposted because I originally put this in an old thread.

Ok, I wonder if you guys can help?

I bought 500+ NXT through DGEX a few nonths ago, transfered them to my account and have not touched it for a couple of weeks.

Now, when I enter my password, it shows zero balance, zero transactions, nada.

I am sure the password is correct, I use keepass and have checked it against old backups, but it must still be logging me into the wrong account.

I have checked the account number against the explorer and that shows no information at all for the account number.

I'm guessing that my password must be wrong, but I am at a complete loss to explain how it could have happened. It was a randomly generated 30 character password.

Would it be possible for DGEX to trace the receiving account number of the transfers I made, to help me confirm if I am looking at the right account or not? There is no historical detail at all on DGEX, no txids, nothing, just dates.

Anyway, all help is appreciated, but I suspect the NXT has gone.

This is the first time I will have lost coins in this way, I'm a fairly experienced crypto geek, so if this can happen to me, it will happen to noobs. There's got to be a better way.

It's certainly put me off the NXT system.

EDIT:

I have just remembered that I saw my NXT in my account a few weeks ago when I was totting-up all my accounts.

EDIT EDIT:

I am trying to get the client to run on a Raspberry PI, this is the only reason I noticed the problem. If my client has downloaded a corrupt blockchain, would my password then log me into the wrong account? I ask because I am trying to reconcile the reason behind there being nothing shown in the block explorer.

Wisdom updates within a second or two of Bter.

Well done to those who badgered Wisdom. 

OMG... finally!

i think they will show it in the main menu when there is more data to show. maybe in some days. otherwise the 1d time period is looking bad. very good news for NXT. but i dont think its realtime because bter isnt providing an API for this. maybe data every 30 seconds?

Very nice! Finally a real-time graph I can watch!

do you think it will be long before you can?

OMG Finally!

You can't select it under "Markets" yet though.

Wow! Very cool!

good

I've asked to add NXT in their thread like 4 or 5 weeks ago and I think others, too. Very cool to now see it added!

There doesn't seem to be a standard yet.

I'm in favor of the "acct" scheme as defined in this IETF standards draft: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-acct-uri-07

Using this proposed standard, a Nxt account would be specified by acct:1234567890@nxt

The Android app by yueye000 uses a custom scheme of "nact". 

Using this custom scheme, a Nxt account would be specified by nact:1234567890

There's another custom scheme I've seen, but I forget what exactly it is and which client uses it.
