I am seeing a first non burn message in the transaction logs DB (tx_index = 423) with the message data "Hello world, @maraoz was here!!!"

Any idea how did that get in? Looks like spam

Is this what an actual counterparty tx looks like?

Has anyone gotten counterpartyd running on Ubuntu 12.10 yet?   I had it running initially but later code broke it, and now I see this message from the installer:

Unsupported Ubuntu version, please use 13.10 or 12.04 LTS

Are you semi-comfortable working with Python? If so, feel free to try disabling that check in the code, and then maybe change

Code:

if ubuntu_release == "13.10":

to

Code:

if ubuntu_release in ["13.10", "12.10"]:

and see how it goes. If it dies at that part (can't find a package, most likely), try undoing that change and instead changing that elif clause below it (elif ubuntu_release == "12.04") to include 12.10 as well, and try that...

My ability to support a bunch of Ubuntu versions is limited, so I just had support for the current LTS version (12.04) and the newest version (13.10). So if no go, then you may want to update to 13.10 if that's not a big hassle.

That's not a Counterparty transaction, though both it and Counterparty use OP_RETURN.

this is interesting

I use bitcoin-Qt,and when I start it ,it shows an error such like "change reindex not txindex",and when I use "reindex=1 "in .conf file ,the wallet rescan.After hours later,I close it,and modify the .conf file (reindex=1  ---> txindex=1),but this problem come again.

Anything I miss?

PS: I noticed that blockchain wallet is OK,Can I just use the Bitcoin API of sendfrom ?


sendfrom    <fromaccount> <tobitcoinaddress> <amount> [minconf=1] [comment] [comment-to]   

<amount> is a real and is rounded to 8 decimal places. Will send the given amount to the given address, ensuring the account has a valid balance using [minconf] confirmations. Returns the transaction ID if successful (not in JSON object).

Yeah, i already tried adding 12.10 to both if clauses before I posted.  No go.  it can't find pip3  ( called pip-3.2  in 12.10 ) and when i fixed that, something else was broken.   I didn't know the python library situation was so screwy between ubuntu releases.

I'm going to just see about updating to 13.10.  About time anyway.  thanks.

If you didn't want to upgrade your base OS and you have enough memory and hard drive space in your machine, try installing Ubunu 13.10 in a Virtualbox.

There's a 1BTC limit per address mentioned in first post.Is it ok to burn more from another address in the same wallet?

The limit is per address.

just to make sure i understand the answer.
its o.k to burn more from another address in the same wallet - right?

Excuse me
But where can i download Bitcoind please?
I only have Bitcoin-Qt





Install and] Configure Bitcoind:

Bitcoind/Bitcoin-Qt must be run with the following options, either set on the command-line, or in your bitcoin.conf:

txindex=1
server=1
testnet=1 (optional)

And where can i find the bitcoin.conf?

If you have bitcoin-qt then that is sufficient. The location of bitcoin.conf is different depending on your operating system:

I just burned a small amount of BTC using the blockchain.info wallet instructions and it worked great!

[BitThink]

Attention, I've found the first invalid burning, which has two different input addresses. This may have already caused 0.7 BTC was burnt for nothing.

PhantomPhreak:

Is it possible to do as MasterCoin: credit all XCP burnt by this 0.7 BTC to the input address which has the maximum input value? In this case: 1NMwvn6DWFr5LPrHX2M1KAJzxfy6heRSTH

or credit to the first input address: 1bPb7NZ1mdH9sQPEWp2j3shPmHS1BMVos?

It's totally fine to just ignore this transaction cause you have warned the users all the time already, but just asking whether this is doable to just save this guy from losing 500 bucks. Thanks.


ATTENTION:

Do not use a wallet having multiple addresses to burn BTC, cause it may burn BTC from two addresses together and currently this kind of transaction is invalid and may cause you lose all the bitcoins for nothing.

Ok, but the Couterparty client is logging the transaction in the sqlite transaction table. So it does look like the client is logging all transactions with an OP_RETURN?

Another invalid transaction with 0.5 BTC !

Attention:

Please stop burning from a wallet with multiple addresses !!!!!!

PhantomPhreak:

I really think it's better to credit the XCP to the first input address. This will not cause any serious issue (at most adding 2 to 3 lines of code) in my opinion.
