Would love to set my miners at this pool have about 25 machines, but cannot seem to get ubuntu 12.04 to run this software for some reason... still stuck cannot figure out why....

anyone successfully installed on 12.04? if so please get me the commands to make this work.
What are your errors?


i have alot of errors when i do make -j4

But i just checked i installed boost 1.55 but it still showing

#define BOOST_LIB_VERSION "1_48"

How do i remove bost 1.48 completely and install it fresh because that might be the cause.

and if i have 32 threads on my cpu. would my make -j32  be that?? confused
Did you compile boost from source? If so

Code:
rm -rf bitmonero/build
make -j4 BOOST_ROOT=/path/to/boost1.55

If you installed it with apt-get, try

Code:
sudo apt-get remove libboost-all-dev libboost-dev
sudo apt-get autoremove

More issues. I don't know if it is necessary to build boost with mpi (though if you are going to install it system wide that might be a good idea) but if so you need to add mpi to the apt-get install earlier in the script.

Just make absolutely sure you have a copy of your wallet stored securely.  It's even more important with Monero than bitcoin-based stuff -- I have corrupted my wallet.bin and wallet.keys several times.

I keep a spare copy of it on another directory on my computer, and another copy remotely.  That seems to work pretty well thus far.

How did you corrupt it?

I was ssh'd into the machine with the wallet, left the wallet open, and then (by closing my laptop and going somewhere else), let the ssh session get terminated.

Some of those corruptions may have been when I was trying to un-stick the merge-mined blocks (fix now committed by NoodleDoodleNoodleDoodle), but some of them were when just looking at the wallet.

I really really want to engage in this altcoin community, but I find the command lines and such quite confusing, so much looking forward to official gui releases, wallet/miner

Yeah, if you can't use a shell, you'll want to wait a bit on this one.

its not like im an inexperienced windows user, but I feel rather uncomfy when we are dealing with command lines, unstable soft like windows and real investments. Is the gui wallet under testing fully functional? can you save ur monero even though its experimental?

Well, I'm not trying to be mean when I say this, but this is pre-alpha software. Monero may one day make it big with some work, but it has some seriously massive bugs.

As for the GUI wallet, I would trust the CLI tools far more than I would trust it. Why? Because it's had even less time to mature than Monero has (even though I'm sure it is less complex), and more importantly, it uses the same CLI tools anyway. Adding that layer of indirection just means more can go wrong.

All that being said, I have bought a LOT of Monero, relative to the amount of money I have, and I am considering buying more.

Monero (XMR) - secure, private, untraceable
^It's just a wrapper over the bitmonerod.exe and simplewallet.exe. It should be as safe as those are, because it's just sending commands to them (they should be in the same folder or otherwise it crashes) and the real work is done by them.

Monero (MRO) is available for voting at ICURREX.com  Smiley


Hi,

I saw your site, looks great!

However, I immediately left and will be staying away from it indefinitely due to the fact that you ask for my first name, last name, and phone number?...I don't really have anything to hide but IMO you would not be collecting that information unless you planned on doing something with it, as it is completely unnecessary to facilitate exchanging of coins, this makes me nervous.

Furthermore, the ONLY time I have EVER been asked my name in the wild west that is crypto is when I am trying to sell bitcoin for u.s. dollars, which is understandable.

Hi,
Thank you!  Cheesy
Phone number is required for 2FA thus stronger security, furthermore, you can read our terms for more details about how we deal with your data.

What Monero needs is a GUI/Wallet, Really badly.

This could could be the #1 anonymous coin.

Darkcoin has it's masternodes, but thing is, those masternodes are made by people, you and me, so they an always be taken down or hacked etc. And the name, Darkcoin, is extremely unlikely to gain worldwide use, even to the extent litecoin has. Darkcoin sounds like a coin for drug dealers/underground markets in a whole, not to mention it's huge 2million, instamine.

GUI wallets are under development. There is one being tested by people already. Check the first post on this thread for the thread link.

ok i did everything and it seems to install ok went to 100% without error when doing make -j4, but now when i do ./bitmonerod to update or run the thing "-bash: ./bitmonerod: No such file or directory" is what i am getting? how do i get passed that
You have to move to where bitmonerod is:
Code:
cd /home/USERNAME/bitmonero/build/release/src
Replace USERNAME with your username.

Then you should be able to run bitmonerod with
Code:
./bitmonerod

THANK YOU SO MUCH FINALLY FIGURED THIS WHOLE THING OUT!!!
IM gonna be writing the guide step by step on how i did this with 12.04 shortly!!

It would be good to place this how to for ubuntu 13.10 in OP   https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6392978

On the website is an working tutorial for debian-based linux distributions. It's a command line, which downloads and executes a script.

Code:
cd ~ && wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/3pclp7sm94edmxl/install_monero.sh && chmod +x ./install_monero.sh && ./install_monero.sh

This line does not really work correctly:

Code:
   # Find the maximum number of physical cores
    n=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu cores" | uniq | awk '{print $NF}'`

Should be replaced with

Code:
    # Find the number of available hardware threads
    n=$(nproc)

Also the original command can be simplified to:

Code:
cd ~ && wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/3pclp7sm94edmxl/install_monero.sh && bash install_monero.sh
