With regard to pools, wouldn't one of the existing GRS pools like cryptohunger be able to knock one up in 5 minutes? Same algo, just different coin name or am I missing something? 

With regard to my experiences with the new wallet, downloads and first sync were fine but as soon as I changed anything (wallet.dat, diamond.conf) it crashed with the errors already mentioned. If anyone is having problems try these steps:
0. Delete everything and start again (except pre groestl wallet.dat - put that somewhere safe)
1. run diamond qt.
2. Close diamond qt
3. Install wallet.dat and diamond.conf in roaming folder
4. Only then install block chain and db downloads.
5. run and sync diamond qt
6. Solo mine

this is only helping shorttime database seems to get corrupted after longer use

Exactly what my testing and limited knowledge was leading me to think.

we will release soon a updatet wallet that use old style database a bit slower at startup but stable

Stable is better than fast. I don't mind waiting a bit longer on startup as long as it performs once started. I'll take known-good over beta any day! 

we are sorry for the additional work u all have to go through until u run a stable wallet again

No prob. It's Murphy's Law, and shit happens.

i can gurantee we will not stop working until last bug fixed

Like the fantastic team you are!!

and then go beyond and implement new features in comming weeks and months

Price is holding solid too and looks ready to rocket. 0.0023 is the next stop.

[HR]

Another test complete:

Delete everything and start again, run diamond qt. then install wallet.dat in roaming folder, install block chain and db downloads, run and sync diamond qt.

Runs forever without problems (3 hours in my test) as long as you don't close the program.

As soon as you close the client/wallet and restart, you get the crash error.



Going to do a manual online sync now.

Going to do a manual online sync now.

That's what i did. Deleting everything and sync over night.
Now i'm solo mining for about 2 hours. I hope it is stable until the new wallet is released.

[daishi]

Hi daishi. Could you connect your miner to your wallet? Did you success compile the daemon in linux? Which port did you use?
Thanks

Yes of course i could connect my miner to the wallet. I've allready found some blocks. I'm sorry, but i don't use linux.

That's my diamond config

Code:

listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcallowip=*
rpcuser=insertwhatyouwant
rpcpassword=insertwhatyouwant
rpcport=17772
addnode=213.229.0.41
addnode=193.77.159.166
addnode=113.168.158.16

AizenSou, you are being a little unfair to the devs.  The early release was forced on them before they were ready. I'm an experienced solo miner but it still took me at least 2 hours to get everything sorted out. Being in a time zone that made me miss the first 7 or 8 hours of the release was also bad luck for me.  

Shit happens, live with it.  They tried to be as fair as possible but it is not a perfect world.  Yes, experienced miners in the right time zone took advantage of the imperfections of the new wallet. I would have too if I hadn't been asleep. They might be called diamonds but they are only worth 40-50 cents each.  So you really haven't lost out all that badly

Hi johndec2, I don't wan to complain but it's very frustrating because I almost didn't sleep last night trying to get the daemon to compile. It failed and I tried the wallet. The wallet got compiled but miners didn't connect. Many core APIs were not available in the debug console. I know the devs are under pressure but IMHO a broken code shouldn't be released at all. A delay won't make users angry more than wasted time trying to get thing done but failed instead.

Sorry if I sounded harsh.

We tested wallet half to a day before release it to people. You should know that: test environment is very different from in real life. You can't cover all cases and we did try as much as possible. We always want to do the best for miners, who go with us, believe us, trust us and fell sorry when we made a mistake.

How does people get 7mh hash rate one 280x?

i am running with this setting on 280x core/mem 1027/1250

--lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -g 2 -I 20 -w 256

the best  i can get is 2.1mh

[cryptonit]

"Fair" would be to roll back everything to block 386228, wouldn't you say? That would be best for the community at large by rewarding everyone who was troubleshooting for the good of all, wouldn't it?

everyone had his chance to mine noone got any advantage
after like 30 mined blocks the wallet was posted for everyone to be used
a few minutes later diff did raise and show people where joining the mining

if someone cant set up solomine
if someone have no access to a windows pc
if someones wallet crashed more that the other ones
is that unfair?


what did others gain
what he lost?

if u didnt mine diamonds last few weeks and months
when diamond difficulty was low as hell
should we rollback because u lost something?

if u didnt mine last day where difficulty was very high after a short time already
should we rollback?

what u expect from a rollback?
easy diamonds from beeing one of the first miner?

diamond is not that kind of coin
after restart network it needed like 3 blocks until diff was adjusted to be at 1 dmd per minute there was no unfair fast mining


the mining rewards will stay for sure at least 1 1/2 years at the same 1 dmd each block until 1500000 total coins reached

that i call fair

network stay running in current blockchain

i post a crashfixed wallet in a few minutes
ui glitch (white mouseovers) isnt fixed will follow in later wallet
for now stability wallet release is more important that wait a lot more hours

as announced by pit_DMD linux wallet and source and some support to compile own linux wallets will follow

its not strange
its know that 59xx cards have very high performance on groestl algo

please keep in mind pool need custom stratum u need to be groestl combatible stratum
and u need to be foundation share compatible

here some point to start researching regarding needed foundation stratum changes
only interesting for people who setup a pool https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=581065.920

regarding groestl stratum changes please pool owner with already running groestlpool share their knowledge

WITHOUT FIXED STRATUM POOLS WONT GET ACCEPTED BLOCKS!

isnt 5970 a card with 2x5870 chip? if so then even 5870 get the same hash rate as 7950

Hashing.

Anyone got any good groestl settings for typical cards like 280x?

I'm surprised by that response.

First, because my suggestion was so far fetched to begin with such that a smiley face would have been enough to put it down (and any implementation would have been truly revolutionary from the community ethic standpoint).

Second, because no-one would have even thought to include anything outside of this specific launch period in their counter-argument (what does anything about whether someone mined or not prior to block 386228 have to do with it? what does anything about the future have to do with it? we're talking about a specific period of time where only the selfish have benefited).

Third, because, at the end of the day, it is a response that ultimately defends (albeit poorly argued with irrelevant arguments) the position of the selfish miner who did not think of the community, and it ignores those who put the community first (think about it, who would benefit from your logic if such a revolutionary idea were indeed to be seriously contemplated? the selfish miner or the community contributor? - again, during this period of time from block 386228 to now, or whenever we do get the DMD network up and running)

None of that is to say that those are/were your intentions, but a very serious inference can be taken from your words.

As I said, I'm very surprised by that reply. It's very out of character for you.

And it's just not true that everyone had his chance to mine and that none got any advantage. To say that suggests a complete disconnect with the reality behind the current issue and situation.

Awesome work it is not crashing for me solo mining! Well at least not yet the other wallet worked for a few hours.
I am sure this was a very quick patch just reporting that any of the hover bubbles that pop up appear blank.

Edit: They are not blank. Text is just very close to the same color as the bubble.

we know its open issue
on ui designer pc they where working after compile it was white in white in mouseover
we will fix this glitch in another wallet update
stability fix was to urgend to wait for ui mouseover fix

I have contributed the following changes to makefile.bsd, in order to make diamond compile on FreeBSD. The first defines might be install specific, as they refer to the port versions I have installed.

So far so good, let's see how it runs.

Has anyone succeeded in making DMD work with a pool? I was away the whole day..
