Title: Blocks Not Downloading on Linux Client
Post by: Existence on July 15, 2011, 06:45:51 PM
Hello,

I'm having an issue where blocks are not getting downloaded on my Linux bitcoind client. The latest block I've downloaded is 135094, which is clearly not the latest block.

I've restarted several times, and I always have a steady 5-20 connections. Port 8333 is forwarded correctly as well.

I've even added a few fallback nodes - but it still refuses to download blocks.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Just restarted my client again and it slowly rose to 100 connections, then slowly fell to 8. Not it's idling at around 10.

Sometimes you just have to wait, or check your internet connection. It may be faulty. Go take a nap, if you don't think about it then it usually changes ;)

I don't think that's the problem. It's been like this for over a week straight.

In my debug.log, here's an excerpt:


Code:
PROCESSMESSAGE SKIPPED 33 BYTES

ProcessMessage(inv, 37 bytes) : CHECKSUM ERROR nChecksum=ccd4d259 hdr.nChecksum=00000101

No idea why it's doing this.
