Abe installing

[zeldalink]

Hello i am trying to setup abe for a coin named VirtaCoin.
But the problem is i keep only seeing the genesis block and nothing more.
Can someone here maybe tell me if my configuration is wrong.

abe.conf

Code:

dbtype MySQLdb
    connect-args {"user":"user","db":"dbname","passwd":"pass"}
    upgrade
    port 2900
        host 127.0.0.1
binary-type binary
datadir += [{
        "dirname": "/root/.virtacoin",
        "chain": "VirtaCoin",
        "address_version":"\u0000",
         "policy":"LtcScryptChain",
        "conf": "virtacoin.conf"
      }]

Abe/DataStore.py

Code:

    {"chain":"VirtaCoin","policy":"LtcScryptChain",
     "code3":"VTA", "address_version":"\x00", "magic":"\xbe\xd0\xc8\xd1"},

if someone can tell me if something is wrong please.

I have no experience with this, but you could check the basics,

Do you have MySQL server running?
Is the username and password correct?

yes it will import everything (it at least looks like it and database grows fast in size when running) but after 1 day running when i access the site it only shows the genesis block.

I noticed you use the /root/ directory, could it be something with access rights?

no my vps automatically made the root thing i just wanted to test it for now so did not bother setting everything up with separate users for now until i can deploy it for real. But i run it as root and the blocks get read only they do not show up and i read it is the configuration in some threads but nowhere what was the problem with the conf.
