Title: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: Scalextrix on May 03, 2014, 11:52:18 AM Hi so I have been using BOINC for many years and I just saw the GRIDcoin effort and I want to join in.
I followed the instructions but the wallet will not sync, it just wont. Here is my gridcoin.conf file (username and password obscured): 'rpcuser=xxx rpcpassword=xxx rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 rpcport=9332 server=1 poolmining=false cpumining=true restartwallet=0 addnode=98.114.181.178 addnode=76.187.184.27 addnode=66.187.94.194 addnode=76.74.177.224 addnode=84.125.196.167 addnode=71.233.139.62 addnode=72.92.48.105 addnode=72.208.65.226 addnode=77.64.220.124 addnode=50.152.78.46 addnode=207.229.136.136 boincappfolder=C:\Program Files\Boinc\ boincdatafolder=C:\Boinc\' Can anyone help? Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: traderman on May 03, 2014, 12:26:30 PM cpumining is currently being redesigned, so that should be "false". Use the "upgrade" command in console to get latest version. What version are you running right now?

First install was today so versions are: Qt 4.8.5 Gridcoin v2.0.5.0-g71-prod OK I found the Debug Console (total noob), but typing commands like upgrade seems to do nothing...? On the Information Tab: Network = blank Number of connections = 0 I checked windows firewall and there are inbound allowed rules, rules also existing in Norton 360 firewall allowed, tried turning firewalls off = no effect. Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: traderman on May 03, 2014, 02:33:27 PM I just upgraded mine with the "upgrade" command and my version is v2.1.0.7-g71-prod .

Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: Scalextrix on May 03, 2014, 03:00:28 PM Alright, the upgrade command seems to have worked this time, im on the same version as you now:
v2.1.0.7-g71-prod Still not syncing though I noted that from other posts incoming port 32760 seems to be important, I checked on canyouseeme.org, when Gridcoin is running the service can be seen, when Gridcoin is not running the service cannot be seen Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: traderman on May 03, 2014, 03:07:34 PM make sure to delete the old blocks and chainstate folders in appdata/roaming/gridcoin!
also put addnode=www.pgp.mx to your gridcoin.conf Alright, the upgrade command seems to have worked this time, im on the same version as you now: v2.1.0.7-g71-prod Still not syncing though Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: Scalextrix on May 03, 2014, 03:21:03 PM Ok took those steps, still not syncing

Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: Scalextrix on May 03, 2014, 03:59:25 PM Frankly, this is just not a reasonable scheme, the only point was to cover some electricity costs of running BOINC, Im not trying to get rich.
So thanks to the forum, but I really cant be bothered. Title: Re: GRIDCOIN Wallet problem Post by: traderman on May 03, 2014, 04:45:46 PM Read over this tutorial, maybe you missed something. My wallet is working and synching fine, so I don't know what else to recommend.
