Title: [solved]No Connections and bitcoin command not found[solved] Post by: jimmyw on May 30, 2011, 05:41:12 AM I'm running Natty under Kubuntu 64bit. I'm getting no connections at all. I tried adding the nodes using the following code from another thread on this forum:
Code: bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86 I get: Code: bitcoin: command not found I am using version 1.3.21 Any idea on what I should do?

It varies by distribution, but you might try:
Code: /usr/bin/bitcoin -addnode... Code: /usr/local/bin/bitcoin Code: ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin Use your file search utility if none of that works.

The Binary is located in the 64 folder, the .bitcoin has no binary, but it does have a wallet.dat file. None of those commands worked, no matter what I tried. Still not sure how to get this thing going. Title: Re: No Connections and bitcoin command not found Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 30, 2011, 06:15:42 AM navigate to that 64 directory and run

Title: Re: No Connections and bitcoin command not found Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 30, 2011, 06:24:45 AM Done what exactly? Tried to change directory where the binary is and run the command, moved binary to /bin/ or added 64 directory to the PATH?
Also, can you navigate where your binary is, type: Code: ls -la Title: Re: No Connections and bitcoin command not found Post by: jimmyw on May 30, 2011, 06:36:08 AM Done what exactly?

Also, can you navigate where your binary is, type: Code: ls -la When I first ran bitcoin, I had to do it from the 64 folder, so when I tried to add those nodes that you had posted on that other thread, the "bitcoin: command not found" is what I got in return. This is what's in my 64 folder: ("****" is in place of my computer and user name, private info) Code: ****@****n:~/bitcoin-0 1.3.21/bin/64$ ls -la It's there, but when I try to add the nodes it says the command's not found :/ Title: Re: No Connections and bitcoin command not found Post by: mewantsbitcoins on May 30, 2011, 06:42:29 AM Try
Code: ./bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86 Title: Re: No Connections and bitcoin command not found Post by: jimmyw on May 30, 2011, 06:46:08 AM Try Code: ./bitcoin -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86 Hmm... Weird, it worked, but I could've sworn I tried that variation.
