ok, doing the rescan now. Thank you for the help! I guess the reward will go to fcmatt if this works since he was the first to respond  I'll let you know the result as soon as the scan is done. Makes me wonder whether this is a viable business model: Technical support for large holders of bitcoins who have a lack of computational skills. Most technical issues however often requires exposure to your wallet to solve things. Which in return requires a lot of trust. It's still an entertaining idea though if you can find the initial few customers who are willing to trust you with their computer and thus wallet now this prob does not matter but how old is this wallet.dat file? are we talking ancient compared to the bitcoin client you
are running today? Just thinking outside the box... but if it was really old it would probably throw off an error like:
wallet corrupted
It was already fixed, go give him your address! success! where would you like your coins sent fcmatt?

sorry it's a bit over my head. I did: , but didn't see a command for rescanning. can you please be more specific about what I should type in exactly? This should do the trick: If that still doesn't fix it you could try the undocumented -checkblocks, please note that this can take quite some time. |

Yes. I did run autogen. I reinstall a fresh copy of squeeze and followed the tutorial and still get the same error.
Try a sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev, run autogen and try again |

Hi Tachikoma, FYI: Tachikoma was kind enough to upgrade the electrum.bytesized-hosting.com server already, could you try to connect to that one?
it looks like that server's working Awesome, thanks for the update! |

Is this the correct install procedure for Linux Mint 13? I've done some testing with this method and it's not perfect yet. The best thing you can try is see if you can install 'pip' via mint packages. (sudo apt-get install python-pip I think). And then running: sudo pip install slowaes
sudo pip install ecdsa
sudo pip install https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/tarball/1.0\#md5\=863e61b215bf2e3fee243ce9583f677f

Coblee, can you think of any other investing opportunities that can have a positive effect on Litecoin?

There are some listings for your region on LocalBitcoins.com. Perhaps you can give that a go |

How do I create new receiving addresses with electrum? It started with six addresses, but I don't know how to add any more.
It will generate addresses automatically when the current ones are used. If you need more then five addresses at the time you can increase the gap limit. |

When I run Electrum I get the following error:
Connected to ecdsa.org:50001
received error: {u'id': 4, u'error': u'limit reached'}
What in the what now?
I added a limit on the number of transactions that can be returned on requested addresses. it is a DOS prevention measure. the limit is probably too low. I will raise it if necessary. I have received 109 transactions on one specific address and about ~120 in total. And now I get the error all the time. What should I do in order to be able to access the coins connected to that address? And what happens if more transactions are sent to that address now when I have reached the limit? I'm running into the same problem as divergenta. I have one particular bitcoin address that has a lot of transactions associated with it and electrum just stopped working for me a few days ago. After contacting flatfly and troubleshooting the issue, he informed me of the upper transaction limit and directed me to this thread. It would be much appreciated if the transaction limits can be increased. the limit depends on the server you connect to. find a server that does not have a limit at all, or bribe server operators so that they propose it. I've tried to upgrade the limit on my server, electrum.bytesized-hosting.com, could you try connection to it and seeing if that solves your issue? |

Well, all good things must come to an end. LTCPPT is closing due to Pirate closing. I will actually return your deposits before pirate returns them to me. And I will send out the litecoin interests on them today. If Pirate does default, it's my loss and not yours. Thanks for trusting in me.
Wow coblee, that's a huge gesture you are making there. I think everybody knew the risks when they signed up so you did not have to do this at all. Much appreciated and keep us in the loop. |

aloah,
i think the port is blocked in my office. too bad.
is there a simple way to bend the connection to port 80?
(and no, tunneling etc etc arent an option in my company)
You could setup an Electrum server on port 80. |

I've have asked my deposit back this week and got it back within 12 hours. Awesome service and I will use it again when I got some extra funds. Thanks again Vescudero.

Hello! How I can install electrum server in my CentOS 6.0 x32? Please step by step instructions.
I think one of the dependencies needs a 64bit server (I thought it was Abe but I'm not sure). The instruction can be found here. |

This is why having a seperate Litecoin forum is such a splendid idea....
|

Maybe you could involve flatfly in this project for helping to optimize it.
I've already extended this invitation to him, he has no development computer at the moment though |

There always have been console commands (electrum help to view the options) but there is no terminal based gui.
In flatflys build you can choose if you use the gui or open the console with shift-enter. You can achieve the same thing by simply checking the commands with electrum help and issuing them. The only difference is that you need to start each command with electrum. |

Is there a console (command line) in the new client?
There always have been console commands (electrum help to view the options) but there is no terminal based gui. detailed linux instructions for noobs plz^^
