Hello, community,

Seems like there is again problem with syncing the blockchain in the new client.

http://clip2net.com/s/jcWu51
http://clip2net.com/s/jcWrpv

Anyone has similar problems? Some hints would be highly appreciated.

Regards
Edward


Was experiencing similar problems. I noted too that the amount of active connections plummeted to 1 or 2 (even 0 iirc) in the hours preceding.

Perhaps members normally staking were on a testnet?

Anyway I nuked everything except the wallet.dat and am now re-syncing the whole blockchain.

Will let u know if it works out

EDIT: I also noticed the Announcements section of the wallet has been updated. No longer says "00Smurf is awesome" + has a new entry

Lol, sorry about that. Discovered a bug, that allowed anyone to make announcements. That was my test announcement. It's since been fixed.

Thanks for replies. I apologize to ask again. but the sync problem seems to remain with no progress though. Just can't get what am I doing wrong. Having around 4 active connections most of the time, however sync is stuck for several days already. The default win firewall is turned off, running comodo instead. Win 8.1. The main point is that up until the day before yesterday everything seemed to be fine. Now the number of "blocks remaining" to sync only grows.

Any help/advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I have been having similar problems and I changed to litemode yesterday and that seemed to solve everything.  Working fine now  Smiley
 

Thanks for reply =) Maybe a silly question, but how do you change to litemode? Here in the thread I only see the download link for the full client.

Regards.
Hi, you can either remove everything in your appdata folder except for the wallet.dat, That is what holds the keys so you can access your coins DO NOT DELETE wallet.dat
But remove everything else in that folder and you can get the bootstrap.dat file from here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9140802 and follow the instructions. Hint: There is only one wallet download necessary its both full and litemode able.

The bootstrap.dat is most of the blockchain and the client will retrieve the blocks from that file; making it faster instead of downloading them slowly over the net. Let it do its thing for some time and you should be hot to trott. Alternatively you can follow these instructions to run the lite wallet. http://shadowcoin.info/wiki/ShadowLite

Have added the bootstrap file and restarted the wallet. It is now importing the bootstrap chain file for 3 hours already. Does it really take so long or there is something wrong with my setup? From appdata everything besides wallet.dat has been deleted before restarting.

Regards.
I would backup the wallet.dat and start with a fresh build.

Thanks. Could you btw give a hint where to find the config file? Could no find any information in the wiki/faq

Thank you for a prompt reply. I have actually done the magic with bootstrap file before, and it helped back then. Will try it again. Otherwire will need to switch to litemode =( It's always nice to have the full chain though.

Regards

Full chain is nice, i edited my post with a hint also with regards to the wallet being both full mode and lite mode able. I have 16 connections on one of my nodes and 37 on my others, btw.

Buckled in with xmr kore sdc and btc. .

Looks like it's gonna be a fun month
Considering moving over more btc, as news develops.

Seems btc has turned a bit bullish too.

I'll consider it bullish when it holds over 500 with buy pressure

Since yesterday

there has been core dev testing for months, while they refine it. NOw its Team testing, soon to be public testing.
Ok. I sincerely wish you good luck !
