I'm running bitcoind version 0.3.19

I've noticed that generation halts for unknown reason.

"getinfo" tells me

"generate" : false,


Yet I've never runned bitcoind setgenerate false (as far as I know).

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Did you start with a fresh wallet at any time? That property is stored (along with everything else and the cat) there.

No, I haven't modified my wallet.  However I've noticed that "generate" is put back to "false" each time I restart bitcoind.

Do you have gen=something in your bitcoin.conf?

How often do you get the chance to work on a potentially world-changing project?

No, I don't.  There is only the rpcpassword line.

Weird.  Are you on Linux or Mac?  If you are, grab my bitcointools and run
  ./dbdump.py --wallet

... then look for:

nLimitProcessors:
  and
fGenerateBitcoins:
