[ANN] Guncoin(GUN) - GUN Core V2.0 - New Exchange for Guncoin

[cryptotum88]

Hello,

I'm trying to sync the wallet but always shows 0 connections so I can't download the blockchain...

What can I do?

Thank you!

You should make sure you have some nodes to connect to.  Additionally, sometime it can take a while to sync - just leave it and see if the connections start to appear.  The coin has been around for a while, it is not going to sync in just a few minutes.....

The problem is not let it sync but is to let it start sync! How can I add some node to the wallet? Because waiting doesn't work.

Otherwise mining guncoin is useless coz is impossible to send it to a wallet...

You may want to update/change or add a .conf file which you will find/can make in the Guncoin folder which would be under your "User name here"/AppData/Roaming/ folder.

In order to make that file, you can start with a regular .txt file then change the extension to ".conf" if need be.

Place that file in the Guncoin folder, then restart the wallet.

I have no problem with the wallet - I use it for solo mining and pool mining too, and my wallet is always sync-d. This coin works well and it is stabile.

Thx for yout help.

I created a Guncoin.conf with all these node:

addnode=104.237.4.26
addnode=142.197.219.57
addnode=158.69.248.93
addnode=167.114.249.196
addnode=176.31.126.191
addnode=184.164.129.202
addnode=188.165.194.146
addnode=204.27.59.90
addnode=212.3.192.248
addnode=31.208.181.125
addnode=51.254.45.117
addnode=72.185.23.235
addnode=76.64.78.208
addnode=78.42.198.233
addnode=84.2.153.98

Still no luck!

Looking in the debug log I found this:

Code:

2017-07-02 18:13:13 3 addresses found from DNS seeds
2017-07-02 18:13:13 dnsseed thread exit
2017-07-02 18:13:13 trying connection 50.7.47.93:42954 lastseen=122.2hrs
2017-07-02 18:13:18 connection timeout
2017-07-02 18:13:19 trying connection 199.127.225.103:42954 lastseen=113.0hrs
2017-07-02 18:13:24 connection timeout
2017-07-02 18:13:30 trying connection 195.95.21.241:42954 lastseen=118.3hrs
2017-07-02 18:13:35 connection timeout

So what happens is that it takes only 3 adresses from seed.guncoin.info and in a infinite loop try to connect to them, it doesn't look in my .conf even if I launch the applicatyion with -conf fullpath to Guncoin.conf

You are welcome.

Am glad to try and be useful, lol.

I am not sure of the exact name that file should be though,....probably "guncoin.conf" in lower case.

Installed the wallet on  another pc and it does exactly the same thing...

I repeat there is a problem with the wallet sync.

If someone who cares about this coin want to fix this good otherwise me and future cutomers will never see a gun coin.

This will surely not help the growing of this coin.

There is no problem with the wallet that I can see.  It has remained unchanged and fully functional for several years. I am syncing an older wallet right now with no issues and seeing 6-7 connections since the network syncing started. I am sorry you are having difficulties, but it is clearly NOT with the blockchain or the wallet - no one else seems to be having any issues.

The problem is "that it has remained unchanged" because 3 nodes doesn't work anymore!

And an older one is not the solution because it can work with older working nodes in it!

If installing a new one works then I will double check mine.

I even tried to add a node from the console with

addnode NodeIP add

and nothing changes!

[understudy]

currently having  the same issue with the wallet download from the main guncoin website ill keep playing with it and see if i can make her sync

[Dabs]

Try these:

188.165.194.146:42954
176.31.126.191:42954
91.121.217.70:42954

I guess you cant say no one else is having issues with the wallet because I am having the same exact problem. Downloaded the wallet from your website and run it like any other wallet. It wont even START to sync, says no active connections. I added nodes with addnode in console, also added config file and nothing is having an effect. So, this is person number 3 having the same issue. Others may be and not know about getting onto forum to post, they may just give up. At my current rate of 800 kh/s I'm mining over 4000 per day and have no place to put them.

[sparker327]

ok, so I played around with the conf file and did the following which now is syncing the wallet the way it should. So those that are having issues just create the guncoin.conf file and add the following. Once I did this and restarted the wallet the syncing process started.

rpcuser="your user"
rpcpassword="your password"
daemon=1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcbind=127.0.0.1
server=1
addnode=104.237.4.26
addnode=158.69.248.93
addnode=167.114.249.196
addnode=176.31.126.191
addnode=184.164.129.202
addnode=188.165.194.146
addnode=194.8.23.138
addnode=200.165.216.117
addnode=204.27.59.90

Thanks for the followup - I will update the nodes on the instruction set when I get the chance.

[sparker327]

no problem I hope it helps. It worked for me but cant say 100 percent it will be a fix for everyone who is having the issues. If they try it then post here and let me know if it worked that would be great.

Hello sparker327,

can you please better explain what you have done?

Because i created the guncoin.conf  and i copied exatcly what you posted inside then put it in the roaming/guncoin folder.

The problem is that the application don't see the conf file.

OK I'M STUPID !!!

For everyone who is trying to addnode be 100% sure that you check the file extension in windows http://quehow.com/how-to-change-a-file-extension-in-windows-10/4450.html

Because my conf file was .conf.txt even if i saw .conf

Yep...

BTW, I appreciate the determination exhibited in working on solving the issue.

It also makes a nice lesson/instructional here in these pages for others who may need to figure out a conf file.

[sparker327]

ive mistyped the extension on files before as well and couldn't figure out what was wrong until I walked away, refreshed and came back trying to look at things differently. Then I felt stupid that I missed something so small. LOL. Hope it worked for you and you can sync.

put guncoin.conf in the following folder (the separ is my username, yours will be different)

C:\Users\separ\AppData\Roaming\Guncoin


FYI, for those looking to figure out what their CPU/GPU can mine.

I have a NVidia GTX 1070, 8GB and am getting 800-850 KH/s normally. If I overclock the card slightly by say 75-100 I can get into the low 900s. Ive gotten it up 980KH/s with a higher overclock but don't want to push that. If I don't overclock I'm lookin at around 3900 guncoin per day on the blocksfactory pool.
