[ANN][ARG] Argentum || A New Begining || UPDATE YOUR WALLET ||

[baritus]

Just to be clear, the 200,000 pre-mine was used to buy a spot on cryptsy and other exchanges initially.

Very nice development happening here!

Hi All,

Please take a look at my Argentum Review below.  I tried to be fair and objective.  I wanted you to specifically make sure I have the current logo there and all the information is accurate.  Also, I notice above where you refer to the MAC wallet, but I do not see it available at the provided link.  If you can verify a link for it I will update the review.  You can just PM me if that is easiest.

Thanks!

Thanks for the review and constructive criticism. Mac wallet is available again. Website overhaul is in progress.

Roadmap "Coming Soon" 

I have a busy life but I try to do as much as I can. It would be wonderful for some more devs to come aboard. Maybe once we release a basic roadmap it will spark some interest, though looking at my track record I tend to just release things with no hype involved.

Thanks for your reply and the update.  It goes a long way towards showing anyone looking into ARG that you are present and active.  Please PM me as there are updates.  I plan on sending more people this way from the review as my site grows in popularity, and I want to be sure to have the latest information.

Thanks again!

Please download version v3.11.3.1

https://github.com/argentumproject/argentum/releases

Mac release is ready
Compiling Windows now

I suggest to -reindex.

[cryptoinerpools]

I stupidly tried to reload the blockchain and now cannot find any active peers

Please can someone provide some addnode addresses of nodes running the full new blockchain

thanks

Give these a try

addnode=45.76.27.218
addnode=45.76.89.17
addnode=52.58.50.77

Once everyone updates, and the nodes sync back up with each other, everything will stabilize. Nodes that are reindexing will not be available to serve blocks.

sha256 works now ( block 2.390.171 at the moment ), but scrypt crashes again on getblocktemplate!

 I was mining earlier for a while but my sha and scrypt kept crashing. I'm looking into it but could really use some help narrowing it down due personal time constraints.

17-04-28 19:27:29 ERROR: CheckProofOfWork(): hash doesn't match nBits
2017-04-28 19:27:29 ERROR: CheckAuxPowProofOfWork : non-AUX proof of work failed
2017-04-28 19:27:29 ERROR: ReadBlockFromDisk: Errors in block header at CBlockDiskPos(nFile=5, nPos=122908179)

In the case above, the client should simply reject the block and move on, but it seems like enough of this will crash the client.

Here's an error from another daemon. This came up as an echo, the debug.log shows the same output as above
argentumd: main.cpp:4221: void ProcessGetData(CNode*): Assertion `!"cannot load block from disk"' failed.

This leads back to readblockfromdisk i believe (I'm away from the code right now)

[whortonda]

After the recent issue I decided to do a full re-download of the blockchain, but the new client v3.11.3.1-72cf1f3 will not seem to download from peers.  I have anywhere from 8-16 active connections, both outgoing and incoming, with up-to-date protocol and client versions, but no blocks will download.  I've tried the Windows QT client and building from source on Ubuntu, and both exhibit the same behavior.

The debug.log is not much help, but here's an excerpt.

Can anyone shed any light on this? Is there a bootstrap somewhere that might get me rolling?  Thank you.

[aatheus]

I am experiencing the same issue. Fresh build from source on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I have 7 inbound connections, 3 outbound connections. No activity in the logs except periodic 'socket recv' errors. The block sync should be moving along, but after several days, no activity.

As an aside, has anyone made a mirror of the bootstrap.zip file available anywhere? argcurrency.org is gone from DNS.

After the recent issue I decided to do a full re-download of the blockchain, but the new client v3.11.3.1-72cf1f3 will not seem to download from peers.  I have anywhere from 8-16 active connections, both outgoing and incoming, with up-to-date protocol and client versions, but no blocks will download.  I've tried the Windows QT client and building from source on Ubuntu, and both exhibit the same behavior.

Can anyone shed any light on this? Is there a bootstrap somewhere that might get me rolling?  Thank you.

[aatheus]

Are any seed nodes, or any other v3 nodes, actually alive? I am seeing lots of connection refused/no route to host errors. Is anyone making a bootstrap.zip file available? argcurrency.org is long gone.

Thanks! The file is downloading now. I'll give it a try. Would it be possible to get this new link added to the README.md on https://github.com/argentumproject/argentum/ ?

The debug logs do not indicate any reason why the blockchain won't sync. I have a bootstrap of the furthest synced block that I know of; Block 2,390,231 and Header 2,390,485.

Thank you protonn and aatheus for providing the bootstrap.  I really appreciate it!

The bootstrap imported just fine, but the wallet still will not sync despite 18 network connections (10 out / 8 in) and only being 8 days behind.

The wallet gets stuck at block 2,388,213 (which interestingly is about 2000 blocks behind the bootstrap block indicated by protonn).  Debug log is more of the same, just a bunch of dropped connections.  Total network traffic after one hour is only about 50KB in and out, so it's not even trying I don't think.  I did a reindex just for kicks, but it did not help.

Sorry I can't be more helpful in figuring this out. Let me know if I can provide any more info.

One of the nodes has progressed, but is still not fully synced.

Blocks: 2,390,231
Headers: 2,392,171

From debug.log
MapBlockIndex.size() = 2,398,140

So somebody is mining. I don't know why the blocks aren't being relayed.

Actually I'm pretty sure the bootstrap didn't import fine. I'm stuck at the same block after bootstrap, and reviewing my debug log I found this:

So, it looks like the bootstrap failed after block 2,388,213.
