Topic: ★ ZEIT ★ [COMMUNITY & KNIGHTS] [ULTRA LOW INFLATION] [MICRO-PAYMENTS] - page 183. (Read 1009280 times)

Well sorry for the delays with the Zeit faucet I promised, it has been up now for a few days solidly but we forgot to update the group with the new URL.  http://zeitfaucet.crypto-co.in/
We did have some trouble and so are keeping the balance low for now, but we expect to reload some ZEIT into the faucet soon, please do not donate at this time we will however replace any donations made to our old faucet address once we are sure of our updated and enhanced wallet security.

We are also currently testing a wheel of chance game for Zeitcoin and others, here is the ZEIT wheel link, please keep the betting low for now while we test.   http://zeitwheel.crypto-co.in/

Cryptsy wallet is back.

Happy trading

Cheers

Did you share your datadir between different users/accounts?
Delete the folder ‘txleveldb’ in your Zeitcoin data-folder, which is most likely: %AppData%\Roaming\zeitcoin.

Cheers

Try this to fix it.
1. Make a Backup of your Zeit wallet.

2. Delete txleveldb directory (Under c:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Zeitcoin) and then restart Zeit Wallet.

If that works then you are good to go.
If that does not work, then

Make sure Zeitcoin is closed
Go under
c:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Zeitcoin (for Windows) or in the Zeitcoin data folder for other OSes
Then Delete 5  files :  .lock & blk0001.dat & blkindex.dat & db.log & debug.log
Then Delete 2 folders named : database & txleveldb
Then Unpack and copy the files from ZeitcoinBlockchainSnapshot into
C:\Users\"username"\AppData\Roaming\Zeitcoin
Then open Zeitcoin and it will start syncing the BlockChain from the last snapshot.
_________________________________________________________________________
Once your Zeit Wallet is completely Synced.
Check your Balance, if the Balance is incorrect.

Click on Help, click Debug Window, click Console,
type in repairwallet and hit enter, then check your Balance

If Balance is still not correct.
Then From a Command Prompt run zeitcoin-qt.exe -rescan  
will take a little while but should correct your balance info.

When Finished Post which way worked for you.

 

what is that ? 

Actually his problem was caused by an overheating issue which caused a improper shutdown.
Improper Shutdowns don't always write out all of the data in the memory cache to the drive, this is what causes the data corruption. More of a robust issue with the OS memory cache design, than ZEIT.
Price an OS and we as users pay for faster hard drive access.

 

ST13runtime means that the blockchain database itself on your PC is corrupt.
You have to reload the entire blockchain.

But you are in luck, we just updated the ZEIT Snapshot .

Go here
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11769023

And Follow the steps to install the Snapshot.
One extra step for you , if you are on version 2.0.1.7
Delete 5  files :  .lock & blk0001.dat & blkindex.dat & db.log & debug.log
Then Delete 1 folder named : database
Also Delete folder named txleveldb , before installing the snapshot.
 

LMFAO when I saw it.   

Crypto is a Long Long Game to Play, those that use Humor to lighten stressful times,
will have a better chance of seeing it thru til the mainstream arrives.

 

try -salvagewallet.

Cheers

'St13runtime_error'

yeah it aint cool ... (kinda pun-nee)

Before this flavor of stakes can go mainstream issues like that are a hamper.  The base code needs to be more 'robust'.
Sorry it is just that way.  And in time it will clear up.

However I think the barrier to mining early POW coins was a much steeper learning curve than that of the stakes, and having such bars to clear actually helps in the short term. (see BTC before 2014 ... and tell me just how easy it was to setup a hashing rig )

In the meantime, the tech support here is kind enough to help fix most issues.

Thanks! I will need the mac terminal command though for the rescan.

You can start zeitcon-qt.exe /rescan from the command prompt and if that doesn't work delete everything in Appdata\Roaming\Zeitcoin (but keep wallet.dat) and download the snapshot and sync again.

My computer shut down because it overheated. Now Zeitcoin wallet won't start giving the following error:

A fatal error occurred. Zeitcoin can no longer continue safely and will quit.

EXCEPTION: St13runtime_error       
CDB(): error opening database environment Corruption: missing start of fragmented record(2)       
zeitcoin in Runaway exception       

I see. So it's some kind of inside joke? Not cool for the "outsiders"

Hex is one of the owners and he might be calling himself retard with that message and he made up more than his mistake so not an issue IMHO.

I'm only talking about the message itself. Publicly blaming a data loss on one of your employees (or at least that's what the message leads me to think, as I don't have any idea who "Hex" is) is very unprofessional to say the least. What about calling him a "retard"? I had respect for that exchange, but it's disturbing that the people behind it are acting like children. This is no "minor detail" imho.

Show me professional in ALT crypto first then I will tell you

Yeah they screwed up, a very minor detail, so they fixed it by basically granting a 10% discount towards cost of auto listing coins.

Actually professional recourse.  But yes I am wondering how well the servers are backup     

Offtopic: Are you guys seeing this message in Cryptopia too? Isn't it a bit unprofessional?

Hmm,
Now that you mention it , the block explorer did only list 9 active connections.
I understand that Delta showed massive improvement from your point of view, but it is still broken.
30 minutes is just way too long for single blocks.

If they did add PoS then it could stop those huge gaps of empty block time.
And one of the guys on the Dev Team is MaNi , and he is very familiar with PoS from his time writing the last released Pandacoin wallet, so he could pull it off.
But adding PoS could add this security issue if they keep PoW.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/security-analysis-of-powpos-hybrids-with-low-pow-reward-551861
(Reason Zeit & Mint dropped PoW completely)

IMO:
Normally would say convert to PoS only, but if they don't have that many active users merged mining is their best shot. Setup Merge mining with Litecoin & Dogecoin give them plenty of miners until their user base grows enough to switch to PoS only.

 

FYI:
In regards to
hybrid PoS/ PoW solution which I think will work well because it doesn't put all the power with the coin holders.
PoW puts power into the hands of people that don't necessary care about the coin's future at all, only the fiat profit it will generate, as they can always dump the last mined coin and just mine another,
Personally prefer that the Zeit PoS owners all have personal and dedicated interest directly into Zeitcoin,
A person will always take better care of something they like verses something they are indifferent too.

2nd FYI:
You are right , they did drop the multi-algo idea.
Below is a quote by MaNi , https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=554412.10440
After looking into it extensively and much internal debate we have decided that multi-algo as it currently stands is flawed from a security perspective.
In that We Agree.
