Its important that we have clear instructions on the wallet update procedure - and what to expect in terms of process and time to update/recode etc. Delete peers? reindex in command line etc etc?

urgently needed please Steven



Kracko a noob question about the wallet update. Please answe me.

I have the former version of the wallet V1041 on my laptop and i have some coins in the wallet.

Now arrived the new wallet version for an important update. http://[Suspicious link removed]/fljnhn

Can i just run this new update while the "old" V1041 is closed ?

And wil the new update run automaticly over the old version and update it the old version automaticly ?

Thanks for your answers....

 

Your link was removed and doesn't appear to be one of mine
Your old wallet.dat is compatible.  The new version is still using bdb v4.8.30 for that.

You have to stop the old wallet before updating to the new one.  What happens when you run the updated wallet is that it converts your blockchain already downloaded to the new version format and also reindexes all the transactions using leveldb rather than berkeley db.   Do not try to start the older wallet back up again after upgrading or you'll end up downloading the entire blockchain again.  Until we get more protocol 70055 wallets on the network you may need addnodes.  As king_pin mentioned here's how you add them to a Windows wallet

* Navigate to %Appdata%\Ultracoin.  (C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\UltraCoin).
* The AppData folder is hidden by default so you'll have to type it in manually in the path bar of the file explorer window.
* You should see your wallet.dat and a few other files too in the same folder
* Create a text file called ultracoin.conf
* Put these entries in the ultracoin.conf file:

Code:
addnode=192.99.8.7
addnode=198.27.82.163
addnode=31.220.0.203

New wallet all working well and staking. Cheers Kracko!
+1

But mining isn't, and transactions are slow. I hope this is not some scam to make UTC go full POS, like the devs wanted to do before Wink
Why don't you stop using inflammatory words like "scam", there's a good chap.

Has the source code been released for the update?

Cryptsy cannot update until it is

The best way to install the wallet is:

1. Delete all files in %Appdata%\Ultracoin  except wallet.dat (this is whre your coins are!)
2. Install ultracoin_733_win32
3. Create a file in %Appdata%\Ultracoin called ultracoin.conf
4. Add nodes to the file (just add his text to it):
          addnode=31.220.0.203
          addnode=192.99.8.7
          addnode=198.27.82.163


This are the addresses of the pools.

If you get stuck on some block, restart the wallet, it usually helps.

So glad I pointed my rigs elsewhere the other day.  What a mess UTC is in right now, looks totally pointless to mine, diff keeps sticking really high, loads of orphans, amazed the price has remained stable.

Nobody seems bothered that mining is totally screwed.




UTC have good dev team. They will resolve all soon.

Why is the dff. so damm high, its killing tonight

Its like a ping pong, ultra high and next drop like stone and again up... duno how the diff retarget work maybe it will stabilize soon

It seems that all blocks with low diff are orphans, not to say that they have from 300% to 14000% procesing time.

Also it seems that right now diff is somehow fixed to 1, and inacurate nethash readings causing all this fuckup.

Question is did exchanges changed wallets and how long all this will continue.

New Wallet stuck on block 852140...anyone else having this problem?

As more wallets get on the network this will be relieved.  The newer wallet will only accept blocks from the most current version.  Addnode the pool IP's as they're all updated.

ultrablockparty has forked due to that time skew.   It is currently on the right chain now, but it has many blocks from that forked chain it was temporarily on during the transition to the new wallet that made it into its database.  In short, it's hosed pretty badly and I can't fix it.  Please withdraw your funds from ultrablockparty.com and temporarily relocate to one of the other pools.  Once everyone is off of it, we'll do a final manual distribution for everyone with balances left on it, and then we'll reset the database.


I cant withdraw! Your pool mail is not working?

It should be.  I'm getting emails to my gmail account.  If you're still having issues PM me with your pool username and I'll queue up a manual withdrawal for you.

Disable the stratum on it.
Many miners don't check their miners unless they stop and don't check the forum at all.
You should stop the pool from hashing so everything goes faster!
