My bitcoin-qt has halted syncing and only displays:

"Catching up...
Downloaded 252450 of 269760 blocks of transaction history (93.58% done).
Last received block was generated 91 days ago."

I'm using version 0.7.1 and have completed a full blockchain download before, but for some reason, it's not completing this time. I have ample disk space and RAM for processing it. Does anyone have an idea on the cause of this hang-up?

Thanks!

Does anyone have a method for transforming these type of characters into alphanumeric strings?

That sounds correct in principle, but how can I apply those operations to the string:

\0\0\0\0‚µ
U‰£ýòÔºÿ@>oà5¥Ùt,®b•FDI

?

Thanks!

Hi,

I used znort987's github blockchain parsing repo to get the following output on blocks:

3   \0\0\0\0‚µ
U‰£ýòÔºÿ@>oà5¥Ùt,®b•FDI   1231470173
4   \0\0\0\0NºÛUî�–É¢øˆ\   ÚYÀÖ‹"�¨ŽH„J…   1231470988
5   \0\0\0\0›rb1]¿‡­6V\   {‰*¿ý•¡ "ø–õ3ü   1231471428
6   \0\0\0\001 ç75iZò¤¾‚U;*·vûÓ¢Ü�w�   1231471789
7   \0\0\0\0q–l+_ÔF±ä…²ÉÙYJÍ ̽TAÏÈ”D   1231472369

The middle column is a block's hash. How can I change this hash into alphanumeric characters? E.g.   "hash":"0000000000000001bfd57dad6bad2a345a47d6f3b4eb91925a6084016c1c19bc",


Thanks!

He seems like a busy guy, but I'll try that.

Hello, I'm using Gavin Andresen's bitcointools from his github page, and I've run into an issue:

How can I obtain the transaction hash using his setup?

For example, I want the hash number: accf64c03c4da48077c1baa1615bdecedff2be278b89536b24945cb987f0ca75

in

http://blockexplorer.com/tx/accf64c03c4da48077c1baa1615bdecedff2be278b89536b24945cb987f0ca75#o0

using his tools. Does anyone familiar with his code have any advice on this?

Thanks!
