ive tried this. the chain is now safed at the directory i ve chosen but the space on the other hard drive is still decreasing. dont know what it is. is there any alternative wallet availabe (maybe web based) you do recommend? You're better off trusting a remote node than a web wallet IMHO https://getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/remote_node_gui.htmlHe's using the official GUI, not a web wallet. If he were though, I'd have agreed with you.

Try to restart the GUI + daemon. To clarify, you applied aforementioned guide right? I, perhaps, should've clarified that it only goes into effect when you restart the GUI + daemon. Btw, if you don't want to lose any progress, you can copy data.mdb to the new directory.

Hi there, not sure where is the best place to post a monero support question. Just installed Hydra v0.11.1.0 and started to snyc on a new machine. Got to about 360 days still to sync and getting this message in log:

Is there any other solution other than deleting blockchain and starting sync from scratch again?
There's the --db-salvage flag, which has to be applied to monerod.exe from the command line, but it's unlikely that it'll "uncorrupt" your blockchain. However, if you'd like to give it a shot, it's done as follows. 1. Exit the GUI and make sure to close the daemon as well. 2. Browse to the directory monero-wallet-gui.exe is located. 3. Open a new command prompt. This is done by first making sure your cursor isn't located on any of the files and subsequently doing SHIFT + right click. It will give you an option to "Open command window here". 4. Now type -> monerod.exe --db-salvage 5. If that doesn't work, you, unfortunately have to resync from scratch. A resync is easily triggered by deleting C:\ProgramData\bitmonero. Whilst you're syncing the blockchain using the daemon (monerod.exe), always make sure to exit it gracefully. If you're using the CLI, this is done by simply typing "exit" into monerod.exe. In addition, if you're using the GUI, simply click on the x to close the GUI and make sure to close the daemon as well.

After 6 hours, 216 confirmations and counting still no wallet-exchange transfer. Not even a pending notice. After 6 hours too. All I did different was change the ringsize to 10. Is that normal? My other transfers took maybe 2 minutes.
Which wallet are you using and are you using a local node or a remote node? Also, did you try to restart it? Latest Hydra wallet. Several reboots. Both the localhost node on 18081 and the node.moneroworld.com on 18089. This morning I noticed the bc is trying to synch but it's crawling. The wallet is also showing a much higher wallet balance than I should have but I can't send a smaller amount that I should have. To clarify, you sent from your wallet to the exchange right? Also, which operating system are you using?

ewalletmonero.org ? Is this your project?
It's not related to the official Monero project.

Hello, I wanto to start mining XMR for a couple of weeks and see how it goes. Did some research and stumbled across so many miners (sgminer-gm, wolf miner, xmr-stack xx, claymore, ...) and pools, I got so confused that I almost gave up. I don't know which tool is deprecated, which new, which is performing better with "modern" or not-so-old hardware. So I realized it would be better to ask someone expert to avoid wasting days of unprofitable or not optimized mining. Could anyone suggest me the optimal miner and/or the configuration very briefly for the devices below? I'm not completely new to mining so I need just some heads up for november 2017 tools. (a) 1 linux servers with " Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz" there is currently cpuminer-opt ( https://github.com/JayDDee/cpuminer-opt) at work pointing at pool " http://minexmr.com/" (b) 1 linux servers with " Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1245 v5 @ 3.50GHz" here too, there is currently cpuminer-opt ( https://github.com/JayDDee/cpuminer-opt) at work pointing at pool " http://minexmr.com/" (c) 1 pc with " Intel i5-4690" and Windows 10 64 (no GPU) (d) 1 pc with " Intel i5-4670" and Windows 10 64 (no GPU) (e) 1 pc with (CPU) " Intel i5-750 2.66GHz oc 3.20GHz" and (GPU) " AMD R9 270X". Which miner? Are Catalyst 15.12 still a must? Thank you. Probably best to open a new thread on r/moneromining. You'll get more and (probably) better responses there. https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/

So it's more efficient to download blockchain than use remote node right? because when use remote node every open the wallet need to sync from 0 again.
Which wallet are you using and how are you closing it? Also, which operating system?

Anyone know why the "getting Started" tab on the monero website isn't working? I want to CPU mine at work, but cannot get to the miner. Thanks
Could you post the specific link you're trying to use?
