Think it is worth running?

No, seems ok.


Edit: Also perhaps a checkdsk /r is in order?

Give it a go, I assumed you already tried that.

Ok thanks, will run that tonight. So it is likely to be an HD issue I guess rather than client issue as nobody has reported it?

How old is your HDD? You could be dealing with a faulty disk drive.

Code:
LevelDB read failure: IO error: C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\chainstate\041412.sst: Could not create random access file.

It is about two years now. I can run some SMART tests.

Please do and report back.

=== START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION ===
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED

I just ran a short offline which Completed without error.

None of the raw values for the monitored attributes looks odd.

I last ran the 2 hour long test 2,404 hours ago.

Think it is worth running?

have you tried moving the data directory to some other drive, and starting bitcoin with datadir=d:\new directory\ ?

No, I reindexed it and it is working fine now.

Is it possible your disk is full?

Good question but I have a few 100 gigs free.

Just opened 0.8.1 after having successfully opened it a few times and received:

I clicked OK. Here is the debug.log. What might have happened? It shut down cleanly last time.

Rolling restarts have finished.  Stratum servers are now running 0.8.1 bitcoind.  Getwork will be updated later this evening.


Please note that the network is nearing a planned transition to Version 2 blocks.  Last July the plan was put forward, and once 95% of the last 1,000 blocks are V2, the network will no longer accept V1 blocks.  At this time, BTC Guild's getwork servers cannot generate V2 blocks.  I will be taking time this week to see if there's any way I can push the change into PoolServerJ to keep getwork alive for the transition.  If I cannot, eventually the getwork servers will be forced to be taken offline because they will not be able to generate valid blocks.

What % of the last 1000 blocks are V2? When is it estimated V2 will go into full effect?

Edit: Answer, http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/top.php

It looks like if you push that code it will be enough to possibly push the network over to having a supermajority on V2. (I am assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that the V1 / V2 blocks generated by the pool are getwork/Stratum.)
668  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Weird question: Can you send bitcoins to somebody with a HAM radio? on: March 18, 2013, 12:59:37 AM
I think it is illegal to transmit encrypted information over HAM radio, at least in the US.

Although guess it is more complicated than that: http://kb9mwr.blogspot.com/2007/10/encryption-and-ham-radio.html

Great!!! To be sure I understand, the next dividend we receive will include our share of the ASICMINER dividend as well as the proceeds from the liquidation of these shares?

Thanks!
670  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: March 15, 2013, 03:16:56 AM
As a shareholder I wouldn't mind voting my shares to put ASICMINER on the BTC Guild donation queue for some period of time. I think this would be a decent thing for us to do to help the pool owner. It would be good will for ASICMINER and show the world how the Bitcoin community sticks together. Is anyone else interested? Shareholder replies only please.

Hi DT,

Can you confirm a third dividend payment today for ASICMINER? How many BTC do you hold now in dividends for us?

In two weeks the weekly dividend will drop at least because the IPO money will have been paid back to the preferred shares. (This could change up or down depending on competition or additional hashing power from ASICMINER's second batch.)

Thanks!
Hello Smiley
Yep a third dividend has been received.
A total of about 310 BTC are currently being help.

//DeaDTerra

Thanks DT. Can you make a payout next week? We should be close to 500 then and it will have been a month.

Quote
I will as usual wait until we have 500 ish BTC to pay out but as it might take a while before we get up to those numbers I will lower the amount until I pay out.
I will try to pay out once or twice a month.

Hey Eleuthria

I am an ASICMINER shareholder. Might there be a way for us to donate some power collectively? I think even a few hours or a day would go a long way, right? It would require a shareholder vote but if we could do this it would help the pool out enormously and only cost each one of us a very small amount. It would also be good PR for Bitcoin as far as showing how the community works together.

1 more until matched. 2 until reorg.
675  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: March 12, 2013, 02:49:34 AM
Perhaps this might not be the place for it but how does the "fork" affect ASICMiner? Or doesn't even do anything? Or am I just riffing and don't know what I'm talking about?

A fork means there was a second blockchain created out of a bug in the new bitcoinclient. Im not sure if bitfountain is still mining on those 2 pools only but if these pools switched to the new bad software then the blocks created are rubbish. No earning. The software should be switched to the previous version so that the old blockchain can win.
I think the worst that can happen is that bitfountain lost the work of some hours.
Looks like BTC Guild is fully downgraded to .7 now.

Gox shows the total volume and last trade price, plus the order book... but is there a way to know how many USD were traded per 24h period?

I received my dividend last week but have not received the latest payment. Anyone else in the same situation?

Thanks

The more this is discussed, the more I would prefer to just liquidate the assets (0.7 BTC/share or higher) and forget about mining. Let's take what we can get and move on.

Yea I would like to see this one closed up as soon as possible. It has been closing for too long. If we start mining that is a whole new set of risks and a huge management issue which we should not bear at this time. Let's keep it simple.
