Title: Getting close to 24 hours with no blocks on testnet Post by: Jan on August 15, 2011, 07:23:51 PM Is it normal not to have any blocks for 24 hours on the test net?

BTW, how can I try the mining in the 0.3.24, the CPU mining is removed so that I dont know how to test now.

This makes it hard to develop experimental software. No more striking, miners get to work!

CPU mining is only removed from the GUI interface. You can still CPU mine by starting bitcoin (or bitcoind) with the -gen option. |
