[aigeezer]

I installed the 3.0.2 and it goes to updating the database, please wait. It will take several hours please be patient. then when the OK pops and you click it the app closes.

Windows10 64 bit if that matters.

I had the same issue, but it eventually synced after multiple restarts. Also Win10 64.

Client restarts. It went on for a couple of days iirc. Something - probably task manager - convinced me that it was making progress.

Re-download and install the latest version again, there was small fix to the binary, which fix the issue for Windows full nodes.

Thanks very much. It also fixes an error that had just started to appear for me: "ReadError: IO error: NewRandomAccessFile failed to Create/Open: rocksdb/".
Memo to self - after dodging that kind of bullet it really is time to make a new backup!

A new backup should be done regularly, especially when some private data changes (added new attestation profile, sent/received private assets like blackbytes, added multi-sig wallet or got a new smart-wallet/sub-wallet).

Continues cloud backup to is planned feature.

Cloud is great if the backup is encrypted with passphrase.

Come on, why would anyone do that?
The only time I don't even do a .001 revision number change is if it's just a text file change that has no important info.

Updated Wed afternoon (probably about 3 or 4 hours after your post) and it's still going Friday AM. So that was not it.

Another 2 days and still going.
@tarmo888 as you said task manager shows that obyte is still running.
Going to let it sit and run unless someone else has another idea.

It's an SSD but an older one.
I could move it to something faster but I guess that would mean starting from scratch.

Well it finally finished the database work and now it's syncing from the beginning of last month.
WTF???

That's normal if you have full node, there was no syncing while converting, but it looks like you are very close to catch up now.

No problem with that, but it was current when I installed the new version on March 8th.
It went back to early Feb for the download. Possibly earlier, I don't know when it finished the update and started to download the chain vs. when I actually checked on it.
