Title: Bitcoinqt v0.11.1 64 bit for OS "no block source available"
Post by: bitplanet on November 03, 2015, 12:54:00 PM
I have posted before and I am still wondering if anyone can help.
I am stuck loading the blockchain at 13 weeks ago with the message "no blocksource available"
I have been using all the other versions of Bitcoin qt for years and have never had a problem.
Can someone please shed some light on this problem?
Thanks

From the previous logs you posted, it seems like your connections to other nodes got refused. Bitcoin requires connection to other nodes to synchronize. Could you check your firewall settings? Or alternatively add these by going to HELP>debug window>console using and select the IPs from below. last updated 2015.03.11

I have a hunch that its a corrupted database causing your problem. I answered another member's question with a similar problem as you. Place this into your terminal ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/ -reindex Or replace the directory with where you installed Bitcoin Core. It reindexes the blockchain and should solve the problem. Give it sometime to run.

when i enter it it says : No such file or directory
Could you try to locate your Bitcoin Core installation directory? I don't use OSX so I don't know it well. It should be somewhere in application support if you didn't specify a custom directory to install to.
