Blockchain won't fully download for me with latest version...

Blockchain won't fully download for me with latest version...

At what block does it stop downloading? And do you have the dreaded checkpoint warning? All checkpoint issues should be resolved. But the warning will rear its ugly head again

Hello john did you get my msg?

Do have the checkpoint warning... Got the blockchain downloaded by adding nodes, but still checkpoint warning.

Where did you get the client from? At the link below?

You cannot download individual files. You need to go to file/download or hit ctrl+s

Version I'm running is 1.3.0.0-g32a928e-caps -- I believe I got it from that Google docs link...

Hmm i would try to redownload the chain one more time. Make sure to delete Everything except your wallet.dat and configuration file. Then verify you have these nodes

addnode=186.95.162.209
addnode=70.79.24.157
addnode=70.98.114.229
addnode=188.165.211.65
addnode=199.192.205.46
addnode=176.34.210.88
addnode=70.69.238.84
addnode=70.98.114.237

Hopefully that will get you back on track. If it is not downloading past a certain block. Let me know and i can check if it is a checkpoint. All others clients seem to be accepting them but if that is your particular issue we can set your client to ignore them

Is github up to date?  I just compiled the source from there and I'm getting the checkpoint warning.  Guess I'll try the google docs verison.

With the latest source you should not be receiving the checkpoint warning. If you have previously downloaded the chain you will need to delete and re download to sync with the new checkpoints. Ill add another checkpoint soon just in case

Hello John the github is up to date right now if so what do i need to delete before i run the new update ?

I performed a clean install of this client v1.3 for Windows. I needed to manually add nodes to begin synching, but once completed, get the error message, "WARNING: Checkpoint is too old. Contact the development team."

Ok must mean its time for a checkpoint update then. Ill add them to the source and include in the upcoming client on the 30th

You will need to redownload the blockchain. What operating system?

Ahh again , as i said previous did not Balthazar design a "Dynamic" checkpoint system ?

so every time this happens , this message , a developer has to manually do something ?

And the user has to download another client?

i'm not sure if that's going to be a long term or viable solution.

having said that this client is a lot better than a lot of others -

{also i updated , and i can confirm I'm getting the Checkpoint message, not that it really bothers me.}

I had the same problem. One of the added nodes was the cause of that problem. The problem node has been deleted from the original post and the following nodes currently work:

addnode=186.95.162.209
addnode=70.79.24.157
addnode=70.98.114.229
addnode=188.165.211.65

These sort of checkpoints are only required for a initial period. We will implement a system later in the chain. The next 2 clients will be required updates as well so due to the changes

Good to know. I was not at my pc to verify.
