Title: How to run abe, bbe, or block crawler?
Post by: smeagol on December 24, 2013, 05:31:17 PM
Could anyone point me to an in-depth guide on how to run bitcoin-abe, bitcoin block explorer, or block crawler?

I do not have a vps, only cpanel access.

If it's easier to run bbe or block crawler then can you tell me how to run those?

Thank you

Before we begin, are you a developer? Wanted to see what are the steps that I should explain.

have you set up the database etc? and what do you mean nothing is happenning? So I ran it the file, did you see any logs?

I am not a developer.  I have not set up a database yet.  If it's easier to run https://github.com/lirazsiri/blockexplorer or a block crawler I could use that too.

All I need is a block explorer

Take it from me, unless you have an SSD, it will take weeks if not even a month to import all the blocks.

I already have blk001.dat, and blkindex.dat all synced up, can't I just upload that?
