Electrum not syncing on ubuntu

[Getoffmyisland]

Hi,

I've installed Electrum on Ubuntu
I got it sending / receiving

But now it doesn't sync.

Command line:
electrum is_synchronized
Return:
false

Does any have any suggestions why it's not syncing ?
Or any way to troubleshoot ?

Also when I send a payment and broadcast in command line
I get an error: Server did not answer

If anyone has experience with Electrum on Linux, please help

Try changing to a different server. If it is not synchronizing it means the server you are actually connecting to may have problems for the moment.

Troubleshoot can be done better in the GUI version rather than the command line one, but if you are limited to command line you have to work through it.

I need to setup on Linux, because I'm controlling the wallet via remote CURL queries.
This way I can have BTC payout functionality via Electrum wallet on my website.

Is there a way to troubleshoot why it's not syncing ?
Could it be something to do with the SSL certificate, I use port 7777 to connect via rpc commands

I'm running the daemon and the wallet is loaded in the background

Any help or reference greatly appreciated

My wallet Electrum stopped sync now after the activation of Segregated Witness.
How to solve this problem?

Hi,

I've found the solution, for the wallet that doesn't sync in Linux (Ubuntu)

In command line or webmin File Manager go to this folder:

/root/.electrum/

In this folder edit the "config" file

On line1 there's a setting that was set to false
Simply change that to true

"auto_connect": true,

This solved my problem and my Linux Electrum wallet is fully operational now
