I can't get the wallet to install from source on my MAC and I don't like running it otherwise.
So, I need to give Mintpal my Poloniex address with Payment ID...
But thanks for the suggestion.
You don't have to install from source on Mac. If you on Mavericks.
https://github.com/sammy007/homebrew-cryptonightYou can build from source or use precompiled binaries. Just read README.
I am going to create bottles (binaries) for Yosomite later today, but I need time to install new SSD and Yosomite on my Mac.
Thanks a lot for posting that. As usual, I couldn't get it to work.
I did follow the directions (including downloading the large blockchain.bin file."
I ran this command after installation: simplewallet --generate-new-wallet wallet.bin
Got this error:
bitmonero wallet v0.8.8.4-unknown
password: ********************
Segmentation fault: 11
I ran it again and it said: Error: failed to generate new wallet: file already exists "wallet.bin"
I noticed files were created though and I backed up my "wallet.bin.address.txt" address.
I ran the "simplewallet" command and got this: Error: failed to load wallet: file not found ".keys"
But, the "wallet.bin.keys" file exists.
BTW - Is there a handy reference for commands that can be run? Didn't see that in the README.
Now I get this from running "simplewallet"
bitmonero wallet v0.8.8.4-unknown
Specify wallet file name (e.g., wallet.bin). If the wallet doesn't exist, it will be created.
Wallet file name: wallet.bin
password: ********************
simplewallet(20000,0x7fff7caf2310) malloc: *** error for object 0x7fff7ce10c70: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Abort trap: 6
If these errors jump out at anyone I would appreciate it. If not, I will wait for a DMG file.
