[rh1n0]

I am getting this error when trying to perform initial dataload for my coin, please help.

ImportError: No module named Apollocoin

If you haven't defined Apollocoin chain, take a look at some
of the files in bitcoin-abe /Abe/Chain/ and write a similar python file
according to the coin specs. Note that you need to import ltc-scrypt module
if the coin is based on Litecoin. Then add your new chain to the Abe conf file.

Or just grab rpc-ace if you need something lightweight and have no need of the API

Maybe someone can help me?

When trying to index the blockchain for the first time with

Code:

 python -m Abe.abe --config abe-my.conf --commit-bytes 100000 --no-serve 

I get this

Code:

I'm pretty much a tard when it comes to all this and am learning as I go.

[YarkoL]

am learning as I go.

That's great.

The troublemaker can be found at the bottom of the traceback.
It also shows you the file and line number. Compare that with
what is known to work and you'll get back on track.

Hi, we need in block explorer for WildWestCoin, who can help? Write in forum

Hi, I hope someone is still subscribed to this thread and can offer me some advise.

I am trying to change the markup on an existing and functional Abe. I just need to add some html and I found where I want to do the modifications in DEFAULT_TEMPLATE of abe.py

My question is, how do I make these changes go live? Do I need to recompile abe? I was advised by a colleague to restart the server and I did do so but, my changes are still not present in the live Abe.  Of course I am being very careful to not break this already functional Abe and was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction.

I have read this and other threads, hours of googleing, digging through read me/docs and did not find the answer covered. Sorry for such a novice question and I do apologize if this is already documented somewhere. If so, I could not find it. 

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It's been a while since I used Abe, but if memory serves -

Code:

python setup.py install

should make the changes live.

hello

Is there anyone how can help me setup an ABE for deutsche eMark?

Here are some eMark specs:

eMark are sha 256 coin and use POS like Peercoin
eMark use TX comment like Florincoin ( https://github.com/bitcoin-abe/bitcoin-abe/compare/master...jonnynewbs:Add-florincoin-comments )

        chain.name = 'eMark'
        chain.code3 = 'DEM'
        chain.address_version = "\x35"
        chain.magic = "\xe4\xe8\xe9\xe5"
        chain.decimals = 6

rawtransaction for genesis_tx.py

     # eMark:
    if tx_hash_hex == "5def52f0e380a698fc529c4aa8c9810d79149a3b2d45b33bb262cb11e22cc5e9":
        return "01000000CF425852010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000FFFFFFFF1704FFFF001D020F270E446575747363686520654D61726BFFFFFFFF010000000000 000000000000000018746578743A654D61726B2067656E6573697320626C6F636B00"

I have tried https://github.com/bitcoin-abe/bitcoin-abe and https://github.com/MatthewLM/PeercoinAbeExplorer but nothing.
I work since 4 Days on that but i cannot read blockchain.
I have this error:

I'm the dev of iquidus exporer, i've been neglecting it a bit as of late due to workload etc, but it is used by many coins still, version 2.0 is also in the works.

I gave this a shot for Bitcoin blockchain and it actually works with python 2.7.12 amd64 version on Windows 7 x64. I am seeing a not updating entries, is that normal?

Code:

not updating block 93097 value_in: 220 != 218 + 1
