Topic: [UK] [COIN] UPDATE TO VER 2 x13 POW/POS Hybrid Viable Replacement [COIN] [UK] - page 9. (Read 14334 times)

Beta testers are supposed to be contacted tomorrow, right? If no communication from dev by then, then that is concerning.

Even if we all do this, I'm sure there's a fair amount of wallets out there that are not associated to users on here.

At this stage... Possible.

Just stay alert for now.... see when/how the Dev replies to these queries. (What he "doesnt" say... can tell u even more than what he "does" say )

Important for UKC holder

It look like the difficulty of pos rising so high, so blockchain is stuck.

I consult to people and someone suggest me to make the diff lower, he suggest me to inform all holder to close their ukc wallet.

So, please close your UKC wallet to lower the difficulty. We will see if it help.

Thank you

I tried to build the wallet with the last commits on windows. But it didn't work. Either its because i'm not really a c++ specialist or because there is a bug.

I'm getting the following eroor when trying it on cmd:

D:\Entwicklung\UKCoin\src>D:\MinGW\bin\mingw32-make -f makefile.mingw
mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target 'obj/alert.o', needed by 'UKCoind.exe'.  Stop.

And when i try it with Qt creator i get:

mingw32-c++.exe: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.

(with mingw32-c++.exe as compiler, and qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2013_opengl-5.3.2).

Does anybody know why it is not working?

Are masternodes coming out for this coin?

UKCoin-qt: Qt5 GUI for UKCoin
===============================

Build instructions
===================

Debian
-------

First, make sure that the required packages for Qt5 development of your
distribution are installed, for Debian and Ubuntu these are:

::

    apt-get install qt5-default qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev-tools \
        build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
        libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
        libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev

then execute the following:

::

    qmake
    make

Alternatively, install Qt Creator and open the `UKCoin-qt.pro` file.

An executable named `UKCoin-qt` will be built.


Windows
--------

Windows build instructions:

- Download the `QT Windows SDK`_ and install it. You don't need the Symbian stuff, just the desktop Qt.

- Compile openssl, boost and dbcxx.

- Open the .pro file in QT creator and build as normal (ctrl-B)

.. _`QT Windows SDK`: http://qt-project.org/downloads


Mac OS X
--------

- Download and install the `Qt Mac OS X SDK`_. It is recommended to also install Apple's Xcode with UNIX tools.

- Download and install `MacPorts`_.

- Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies:

::

   sudo port selfupdate
   sudo port install boost db48 miniupnpc

- Open the .pro file in Qt Creator and build as normal (cmd-B)

.. _`Qt Mac OS X SDK`: http://qt-project.org/downloads
.. _`MacPorts`: http://www.macports.org/install.php


Build configuration options
============================

UPNnP port forwarding
---------------------

To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable UKCoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake:

::

    qmake "USE_UPNP=1"

(in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**)

This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping.  It can be downloaded from
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/.  UPnP support is not compiled in by default.

Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:

+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP=- | no UPnP support, miniupnpc not required;                                 |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP=0 | (the default) built with UPnP, support turned off by default at runtime; |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_UPNP=1 | build with UPnP support turned on by default at runtime.                 |
+------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Notification support for recent (k)ubuntu versions
---------------------------------------------------

To see desktop notifications on (k)ubuntu versions starting from 10.04, enable usage of the
FreeDesktop notification interface through DBUS using the following qmake option:

::

    qmake "USE_DBUS=1"

Generation of QR codes
-----------------------

libqrencode may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests.
It can be downloaded from http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/index.html.en, or installed via your package manager. Pass the USE_QRCODE
flag to qmake to control this:

+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_QRCODE=0 | (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required                 |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| USE_QRCODE=1 | QRCode support enabled                                                   |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+


Berkely DB version warning
==========================

A warning for people using the *static binary* version of UKCoin on a Linux/UNIX-ish system (tl;dr: **Berkely DB databases are not forward compatible**).

The static binary version of UKCoin is linked against libdb 5.0 (see also `this Debian issue`_).

Now the nasty thing is that databases from 5.X are not compatible with 4.X.

If the globally installed development package of Berkely DB installed on your system is 5.X, any source you
build yourself will be linked against that. The first time you run with a 5.X version the database will be upgraded,
and 4.X cannot open the new format. This means that you cannot go back to the old statically linked version without
significant hassle!

.. _`this Debian issue`: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621425

Ubuntu 11.10 warning
====================

Ubuntu 11.10 has a package called 'qt-at-spi' installed by default.  At the time of writing, having that package
installed causes UKCoin-qt to crash intermittently.  The issue has been reported as `launchpad bug 857790`_, but
isn't yet fixed.

Until the bug is fixed, you can remove the qt-at-spi package to work around the problem, though this will presumably
disable screen reader functionality for Qt apps:

::

    sudo apt-get remove qt-at-spi

.. _`launchpad bug 857790`: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-at-spi/+bug/857790

the Ember bug.

Github has some comments that the client was updated 2 days ago. This is probably the problem. We most likely need a new wallet.

Yeah, thinks you dont wanna do. I still think it has way up potential because he seemed very active until now. Anyway looking for beta testers, (maybe tests something and) get the blockchain stuck is something which shouldn't happen. If it happens, a fast response that he is working on a solution or at least knows what's happend would have been great.
