http://galaxypool.chriskoeber.com <-- Is no longer up, at least hasn't been for days, or weeks.
http://glx.verters.com/ <-- Neither is this.

http://glxpool.digsys.bg <-- Dunno what this guy is doing but as soon as you start mining there he puts his big solo miner in the pool and takes it out of there when you stop.

http://galaxy.cryptcoins.net <-- 5.23% fees (with the reward included) Enough said.

You're on linux?
Please use ckoeber's script for upgrading to the 2.0 blockchain, linux wallets have a problem atm updating past that block

ckoeber
The unzip command on some linux machines will result in corrupted files,
I recommend revising your script to fix this, perhaps upload a .tar.gz file instead of a .zip

Is PoS working for anyone? I see my wallets try to PoS and end up with generating 0.0 coins, like this:

I then see an transaction like this

    {
        "account" : "",
        "category" : "generate",
        "amount" : 127.91500000,
        "confirmations" : 125,
        "generated" : true,
        "blockhash" : "1aec5486366a4a0abb7801c8976895da3cfbfac9e75e882986554c5342b777f2",
        "blockindex" : 1,
        "blocktime" : 1396605160,
        "txid" : "5a1a276cb05b69c3b2656f0382b3eced722e4469706751b1feb110a28a0d85f3",
        "time" : 1396605160,
        "timereceived" : 1396605160
    },

Does this mean I actually got 127.915 generated, despite the message? Or was my earning just 0.906?
( wasn't paying attention to the balances)

EDIT: doing some calculations on the transactions, I figure out it is indeed working, and in this case produced 0.906 coins.

I think there may be an issue with the checkpointing code.

I'm synced to block 280156 (0000000011da6f86eb6d51a675f6af2101272fd2f4eee95686b3c75966fc9352), presumably on the correct chain, yet RPC 'getcheckpoint' shows a checkpoint from August last year:


I noticed this when doing testing for a coin I'm currently reviving. Some other PoS/PoW coins are also showing similar behaviour... but some are showing the expected newest checkpoint. This is just a wild guess, but I think that the code may only store checkpoints at the time you first install the coin. So the highest checkpoint at that time gets stored in the db, but any additional hardcoded checkpoints from future releases are not recognised. I don't know if this is intentional, but reusing the ppcoin code without changing the central checkpointing features (keys etc) has broken it, or it's a known bug that has already been fixed in some coins.

By checking the current block. Compare with the good fork.

Still a no go for me. Only syncs up to block 18924. Still hoping for the blockchain to get re-uploaded or for chriskoeber.com to come back online.

Awesome, I'm up to date now! Thanks for the addresses.

Try following nodes:

212.83.187.132
192.95.29.176
162.220.246.58
188.226.169.38
27.118.30.26
192.92.129.48
54.201.121.142
155.69.222.247

So after updating my galaxycoin.conf to include the 3 nodes almightyruler posted earlier, I am now able to connect to 1 peer. However, my wallet isn't syncing. (Client has been open for several hours.)

Is this reason for concern? Is something wrong with my setup or are others experiencing the same troubles?

I'll try to do so tonight.

His link should be back up soon

Any chance someone could re-upload the blockchain somewhere since the link posted here isn't working? I'm unable to sync past block 18924 using the addnodes posted here. Thanks.

I think the first IP may be Cryptsy, or at least it is connected as a peer to Cryptsy. I did a test deposit earlier and it succeeded.

How do we decide which fork is the "good" one?

I am really sorry; I can't connect to my server on the east coast and I am all the way on the west coast.

I do know your wallets are safe; I have the latest backup on a separate server which I can see.

I bet is just a hiccup that a reboot will take care of but I need to be there, of course

Crazy; as you know mid conference Facebook bought Oculus Rift.

They were the small cool booth on Tuesday and by Wednesday/Thursday they were worth more than at least half of all of the other companies there.

Combined.

My side seems to be segregated too. I'm connected to a single peer only, and from my P.O.V. the blockchain hasn't changed for more than 24 hours. If I mine then I'll definitely be creating a fork, but if I manage to connect any more peers I can't be sure that the new blocks they are providing are from the main blockchain, or their own private fork. What we really need to connect to is the IP of a major pool, or even better, cryptsy.

Awesome! Sounds like fun. I just started to get a little worried because I can't connect to any nodes currently, so can't even solo mine without creating a third fork

Just wanted to make sure it wasn't my end and that you were aware. Thanks!

Sounds fun, any free samples?

I apologize; I am at Nvidia's GPU conference; I will remote in and try to solve this as soon as I can.
