Trying to sync monero on linux ubuntu 16.04 and I'm getting so many problems.
I did it normally, started ./bitmonerod and got first 300k blocks nice and reliatively fast. I come back the next day and it's on 320k?
so i wait 3 more days, 380k. something isn't right.

Downloaded the boot strap (took less than 5mins on high speed VPS) and follow instructions blockchain_import
I tried
 ./blockchain_import --database lmdb#nosync --verify 0 --input-file ~/blockchain.raw
 ./blockchain_import --database lmdb#nosync --verify=0 --input-file ~/xmr/blockchain.raw
 ./blockchain_import --verify 0 --input-file ~/xmr/blockchain.raw
 ./blockchain_import --input-file ~/xmr/blockchain.raw

You name it I tried around 10 different combos of those commands and each and every one failed. The "database" command was the fastest, but the last block would not be existent or corrupt and wouldn't allow the daemon to function. Massive PITA.

The rest of them would get to 200-350k blocks and simply start hogging resources and STILL not move anywhere in regard to progress. And then, not even being able to exit blockchain_import or bitmonerod (which ever one I was using and trying to sync with).

does anyone know the fastest way to sync on ubuntu 16.04. This is extremely frustrating.

I just did it from scratch on my Arch Linux laptop.  It took ~4 hours to sync.

Is your internet speed decent and reliable?  Ate you using any sorry of firewall?  The monero client is a distributed network like bit torrent.  You'll need multiple connections...

Can't have anything to do with download speeds, downloaded the 3.2GB blockchain in a matter of 2 minutes.

Another chunk of code, my client hangs up to 5 minutes just to close:

No idea what this things problem is. I've tried on 2 VPS's hosted at different places as well.

At the moment I'm using ./blockchain_import --verify 0 --input-file ~/blockchain.raw
Stopping every 200k blocks, starting the daemon letting it update the lmdb size then exiting and starting import up again...which is slowly but surely working, I have no idea how long this will last as it keeps getting slower and slower as the height goes up.

Another chunk of code, my client hangs up to 5 minutes just to close:

I suspect it's waiting for the currently processed chunk of 200 blocks to be added before exiting.

While it's so waiting, can you check in top where the time is going (CPU, I/O) ?
Is bitmonerod mostly in D state ?
How much swap do you have, both total and free ?
How much RAM do you have, both total and free ?

I'm going to need to decide which country to report the theft of my moneroj in.
I am in Norway, and I was in Norway a couple of days ago when I discovered the crime.
I am going to be in the United States in a few days, where I am a citizen.
So the question I am asking myself is whether to report it now, in Norway, or later, when I will be in the U.S.
Someone discussed this very question here
https://www.askthe.police.uk/content/Q603.htm
Since there's no way to know where the crime occurred, it's kind of ambiguous.  But the gist of the discussion seems to imply that I need to report it in the United States.
"You need to make a report to the police in your own country, you should not make the report direct to the police in the country where you think the crime has happened as the request must be from a recognised law enforcement authority."
"There are official procedures that must be followed when investigating international crime which mean that you must report the matter to your local police/law enforcement agency first."
The thing is, from my intimate knowledge of the United States and the attitudes there, having lived there sixty years, I am inclined to make the report in a more civilized country like Norway.

who can help me to build my own pool
the pool i want to build for my own rigs that means i need a pool private

I am sorry but I still don't understand why you want a pool of your own. How much hashrate do you have?

Backstory - Already offered to help him but he wants a pool running on windows. No such thing, right?

Good luck bud. Tried. sorry!

i'm trying to add on 16.04 ubuntu from deltahost but get error when i want to compile daemon.

Crosspost:

A publication in the famous french newspaper website "Le Monde" about monero (and a rather good and well informed article) :
http://www.lemonde.fr/pixels/article/2016/09/15/monero-la-monnaie-electronique-qui-se-reve-en-complement-indispensable-du-bitcoin_4998143_4408996.html

Wow!  Le Monde is the French newspaper of record, like the NYT is for America.

Was the article in the print edition as well?

"complement indispensable du bitcoin"

Yes, that pretty much covers it.

I buy the XMR with an expensive price

[tankist0]

I haven't checked this thread for a while, but after reading just ONE last page -- this is ridiculously awesome! Payment processor, monerodo OS which I am downloading right now -- that's a huge progress, thank you guys for your hard work! And here comes the Le Monde article, right in time

What is the error?

Sorry.... (?)

I didn't, but I'm still not selling it. If you bought it to make money overnight, you picked the wrong coin. This coin is for people with lots of patience.

Thats great news for me. I have been doing lots of test transactions from test wallets because I recently set up a remote node on $5 Digital Ocean And wanted to get to grips with simplewallet command line UI before moving my Monero from Polo.

My home bandwidth is too poor to run bitmonero daemon and I could never get it to work locally. It just used to bomb out and I gave up.

I highly recommend running a remote node on a VPS to anyone living in a country with unreliable and slow bandwidth and then just pointing simplewallet at it. This works just fine.

Whats your home bandwidth? It should be able to run..... bomb out? Can you describe more the behavior?

Min fee is 0.1? seems high.

Min fee is 0.1? seems high.

It is high but it's also not correct.  I don't know why you think it is but you obviously didn't read the few posts before yours.

IMO. xmr price will at 900k-1200k sathosi. and then stay at 1200k after that will pump until 3000k satoshi
