bitcoind (0.3.24) can't be stopped

July 18, 2011, 02:13:07 PM

I'm running last bitcoind executable in Linux. But when I want to stop it

Code:

bitcoind -stop

I get error message:

Bitcoin: Cannot obtain a lock on data directory /home/shevek/.bitcoin. Bitcoin is probably already running.

Of course, it is running! Tongue

Proposals for improving bitcoin are like asses: everybody has one

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Try running bitcoind stop (without the dash)

Hmm. And I was thinking that this was going to be an off-topic bitcoin cheerleading thread.

I routinely ignore posters with paid advertising in their sigs. You should too.

I just added this to the wiki because when I first started using bitcoind I couldn't figure out how to stop it either without resorting to some googling and finding 'bitcoind stop' in a random thread from these forums.

by the way whoever posted this screenshot on the client page, nice brag. Am I 'jelly'? Yes, I am jelly.

Those are testnet addresses. They start with m or n instead of 1. The testnet has been reset a while ago (and probably will be again) so difficulty was 1 and it was *really* easy to generate

that is abundantly obvious now, for some reason when I saw it at first I ignored the addresses and just kept staring at the transfer sizes and how quickly it was mining blocks of 50 Shocked
