Title: Bitcoin-QT problems Post by: SgtSpike on April 15, 2014, 04:06:32 PM I've been running a full node since 2011, updating it as needed to the latest version. Recently, it stopped syncing beyond about 4 weeks ago. I decided to upgrade to the latest version, 0.91, so I uninstalled the old one and deleted all the blockchain data (everything in the blocks directory). Downloaded the 64-bit version, and launched it, only to receive this error:

If I launch it again, then I get this error: https://i.imgur.com/Zf52Lwl.png If I delete everything in the blocks folder again, I get the first error again. What have I done wrong, and how can I fix it? Title: Re: Bitcoin-QT problems Post by: grue on April 16, 2014, 04:03:01 PM did you also delete the chainstate folder?
