Hi All. I've been reading about and following monero development for a long while, but haven't got much involved in the discussions. Need to break my silence though since I can't find a solution to this:

Every time I try to send more than a few dozen monero (from mymonero) I get an error message that says "Too Many Amounts". When I moved my balance from the old version wallet to mymonero I had the same problem and ended up having to spend half a day guess amounts that might work. My hope was that I could avoid messing around with the full software and more easily manage my wallet online. Now I'd like to move some of my balance to a cold wallet and I'm having the same problems at mymonero. Too Many Amounts.

EDIT:
Also getting other errors: "invalid Transaction" and something about "unspent outs"

What's this about? Am I doing something wrong? Is there a solution forthcoming? Sorry to break my silence with a complaint, but it's frustrating. On the upside, I'm pretty damn pumped about what is being developed here! Thanks.

You likely have (too) many dust outputs, which makes it more difficult to construct a transaction and subsequently broadcast it. Simplewallet has an option to "sweep" your dust, but I am not sure how to solve it in MyMonero. I'll forward this to fluffypony too.

Also, general remark, if you incur any error at MyMonero please email support (too):

support[at]mymonero[dot]com

Thanks. I'll send them a note. Since I had this same problem with the old wallet I thought perhaps it was an ongoing general issue and not necessarily related to mymonero. My understanding is that dust is small unuseable amounts of monero and I've seen some mention of the sweep_dust command, but how do you use it? Do you flag a transaction with it or is it a general maintenance process? Where does the dust go?

Thanks again.

The sweep_dust command basically bundles your dust outputs and sends it back to your own wallet such that they (the outputs) are spendable.

The problem you currently face is that your transaction gets too big if you combine all your outputs (including the dust ones). Therefore, you can only send smaller amounts.

Furthermore, your transaction is most likely bigger than 20 KB, which is currently the minimum blocksize limit and the median blocksize, and is therefore rejected by MyMonero. This problem will soon be solved since we'll switch to a minimum blocksize of 60 KB after the hardfork of March 20. See:

https://forum.getmonero.org/20/general-discussion/2409/increasing-the-minimum-block-size

I hope this sufficiently answered your question(s).

Now I have checked there should be right address and view-key. The blockchain is syncronized. But still simplewallet shows zero balance on its view-only wallet.
MyMonero.com anyway shows the real balance.

When I am using this command

Quote
./simplewallet --generate-from-view-key address:viewkey:filename

to create a view-only-wallet and use a faulty address, simplewallet will tell it is faulty address.

But when I use purposely a faulty view-key, simplewallet does not complain anything. It just creates a view-only-wallet. And that wallet can be opened. But I guess it will only show zero balance. Is this featere of simplewallet ok?


What version of simplewallet are you running?

https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/commit/f6abc5324f602ded6a0424445c033f5a8622ab22

Edit: I don't think this is in a tagged release yet.


I dont know how to check the version. But I downloaded this about three moths ago.

This is from less than a month ago, so you don't have it. It'll be included in the upcoming release (within the next week or two). Thanks for the report.

Just wondering why people are mining this coin when it pays like 1/12th of what ETH is currently paying. I calculated like 0.001BTC/DAY with a 280X.

Because ethminer doesn't recognize the RAM amount of my R9 270X Nighthawks and tells me they are invalid GPUs.   Tongue  So they continue to happily mine XMR day in day out with never an issue...maybe a reboot once a month.

It would be better that simplewallet complained if a faulty view-key is given when creating a view-only-wallet.

A lot of people mine with CPUs. This is the only cpu-mineable coin thats worth anything.

Let's try to get high-availability, high-performance Monero nodes spread as widely as possible.

Ideally, we'd have one or two in every data center (and behind every anti-ddos specialist) on the planet.

Pardon my ignorance, but "running a node" means running bitmonerod on a machine with a public IP address, right?

Yes, just like all cryptocurrency networks. Eventually transactions will be relayed via i2p.

Nice movement lately!  Cool - Was in well under 200k, keep it up...should have room to go much higher.

All that ETH profit from ppl has to go somewhere!  Shocked

Wow, almost at page 1500 guys and 3000 subscribers on the subreddit.  Monero has had a hard two years, but the GUI and a proper 1.0 version is almost done.  With dollar parity in our grasp, everything is lining up for Monero.

I think you had quite a bit to do with the reddit growth.  Thanks for taking the initiative,
