Kindly check and tell me if it is working fine or not.

We asked loljosh to fix the issue. We have tested the update and it works for us. Does anyone else have an issue with the new link?

Did you look at my post on the previous page?  Do you have a plan to change the P2P and RPC ports?

Yes. Thanks for that. Working on it.

seems like mining is stuck at block 4999 for a couple of hours now

Its stuck because difficulty is high and miners left suddenly. It will take time to solve blocks and get it going again.

No, that's not the reason.  BCC has been a victim of a timewarp attack it seems.  Same thing happened to Aiden. 

In fact, this coin has been heavily attacked from day one.  No idea why.  ON dedicated I've had to mitigate attacks on stratums and web because of this coin.  Someone obviously doesn't want it to succeed.

Also - the BCC wallet keeps randomly crashing for no reason.  Never had a wallet crash like this.  There is nothing in the logs to say why either.

So I tried to trasnfer some BCC to poloniex but it got stuck.

This is when they decided to freeze BCC, I made the deposit about 15 minutes before.

Any help would be appreciated, I asked busoni on the chat but he disappeared as soon as I asked.

No, that's not the reason.  BCC has been a victim of a timewarp attack it seems EDIT: The checkpoints are wrong in the wallet.  Same thing happened to Aiden.

I would suggest nobody make any transfers until this is fixed.  I think because the block will invalidated, that any transfers from wallets will have their coins returned after a reindex of the blockchain, but just to be safe I'll be disabling cron payouts on Dedicatedpool until we know more.

In fact, further investigation of stratum logs reveal this:

2014-04-28 17:15:33,167 INFO template_registry # Yay, share with diff above 100000
2014-04-28 17:15:33,167 INFO template_registry # We found a block candidate! 00000000253f79e4f244e44d678e0bce0c9895b033eb6ae1975d40d1836321a4

And since it's 4999 and won't go to 5000, there might be something in the code like a checkpoint.  When you forked this coin, did you check your checkpoints and make sure they were deleted from the last coin?


EDIT:

Here's the problem.  You didn't delete the old stake checkpoints from the fork:

Line 24 in kernel.cpp

static std::map<int, unsigned int> mapStakeModifierCheckpoints =
    boost::assign::map_list_of
    (     0, 0xfd11f4e7u )
    (  5000, 0x1d88a220u )
    ( 10000, 0x3bae1eb9u )
    ( 15000, 0x8c6b5d66u )
    ( 20000, 0x90881334u )
    ( 21330, 0xe07fa575u )


Actually I have to admit, I'm not sure how the "stake checkpoints" actually work, but it seems they are affecting, in some way, the checkpointing for the PoW blocks.  I checked checkpoint.cpp and it doesn't have any checkpoints mapped.  Anyone else comment on this?  I don't have the time right now to look over the PoS code.

[testadimerlo]

Dev, when the wallet issue will be fixed do you think could be better to send you a new address ( downloading the new wallet ) ?
I wish the best

I have the same problem, Are the coins lost?

[WarrenP]

Blockchain seems stuck on 4999???
I am trying to mine to move blocks... but nothing seems to be happening?

[Fraxinus]

Is there a virustotal on the windows wallet?

Ask for help !

I compiled from github for a 64-bit Linux machine. When I first ran BTCtalkcoin-qt it crashed halfway through loading the blocks. I restarted again and it finished loading. So there is the same instability when using Linux.

If you guys are working on the wallet, here's something else to fix while your at it. When I first tried compiling it came up with an error. There is an inconsistency in the naming of the files. Two of the files have letters with inconsistent case and I think all you need to do is rename the files so that they match what the compiler expects to see. Doing the following in Linux fixed it for me:

cd src/qt/res/icons
mv btctalkcoin-16.png BTCtalkcoin-16.png
mv btctalkcoin-128.png BTCtalkcoin-128.png

If you make this change, I don't think it will affect Windows because Windows isn't case sensitive. You guys take your time; I'm not in a rush to get this fixed. Thanks for your developing this nice coin for us!

The developer has fixed the code and I believe a working wallet will be posted shortly.

Have any coins from the airdrop started already? I am just wondering if any were lost due to the wallet problems, or whatever occurred.

I have been wondering why my wallet wasn't working, just stuck, never syncing. Guess I know why now.

[BCCdev]

We are releasing a new update today. Everything has been fixed and is working flawlessly now. Please give us just a few hours.
And no coins are lost, don't worry!

Thanks!
