Title: [SOLVED] Litecoin-qt refuses to use bootstrap.dat Post by: Kluge on January 05, 2014, 10:10:11 AM Downloaded bootstrap from lurkmore site. Verified. Everything's set with it.
Fresh install of qt (8.6.1beta on W7x64). Loading with "O:\Program Files (x86)\Litecoin\litecoin-qt.exe" -datadir=O:\LTC -loadblock=O:\LTC\bootstrap.dat -dbcache=1000 On client, says "importing blocks from disk," then "no block source available," then "synchronizing with network," but is syncing from block 0. Yes, the file's in there, and no, it's doesn't have the .xz or .old extension after it. Any help appreciated. ETA: Herp derp. I didn't understand "Decompress to obtain bootstrap.dat." in readme. I simply removed the .xz extension, having no idea why it was included. Will delete thread if resolves issue. ETA2: Derpa de derp de derp du. Problem solved. Have never encountered that file type before. Will leave thread in case someone searches and has same issue. (use 7zip) Title: Re: [SOLVED] Litecoin-qt refuses to use bootstrap.dat Post by: chandan123 on February 02, 2014, 07:35:12 AM how can i create bootstrap .dat from my appdata folder ?
