[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

[xulescu]

I have latest daemon as well asthe blockchain from OP.

Unfortunately it stucks at an orphaned block 5 days ago, how can i get on the right chain?

This should not be possible as the 0.8.8.3 daemon has a checkpoint after the fork.
Are you positive you're running the new daemon and not an older one by accident?
Are you positive the daemon is loading the blockchain from the OP?

If both questions answer "yes", try to close the daemon, delete poolstate.bin and p2pstate.bin and restart the daemon.

@smooth, @rpietila:
 
I don't think that we can take such statistical conclusions to the recent variations in the number of transactions, without taking into account the concern that users would have had during the brief time of the attack/fork and the couple of days that followed. I'm not saying that the higher transaction fee did not impact on number of transactions, but just that in this particular instance, it was not really the only motivation for less transactions.

In any case, I'm looking forward to per-kb fees, and appreciate the rationale that you've both presented on this matter.

The fee increase happened in the response to the spam attack and I don't believe it produced the user concern this last attack did as it didn't have an effect except for some minor delays for a short period of time.  The question of the effect of the fee increase was brought up before the last attack and the fee increase did indeed decrease the number of transactions.  I didn't check but I believe the decrease was the same as just stated.


P.S.  It would be nice to have more hair to turn gray

Bitmonerod.log says " IGD port mapping. No IGD was found."
 What does it mean? 

[Aaxx]

IGD port mapping. No IGD was found. -
There is a firewall blocking bitmonerod or your router doesn't have Upnp or its disabled.

I add bitmonerod to trusted in KIS 2013. Upnp is disabled in my router, but  it didn't stop bitmonerod earlier!  What I have did incorrectly?

Newb, reporting in. What is the blockchain.info equivalent for XMR? I need to verify a transaction.

[Aaxx]

I would completely uninstall KIS as its giving lots of problem with monero wallet, you are not the first.

I have no problems with KIS & XMR-wallet before. If I turn off KIS, nothing change... CLOSE CONNECTION
What's go wrong?

[sammy007]

When the 0.1 fee will be fixed ?

When we replace it with per-kb fees.

Just please make the fees high enough that the blockchain is not sold out too cheaply. It is possible to lower them when the price rises. The recent decision to up them by 20x did not lead to price crashing.

Would you pay all pool payout fees? I'm loosing more than 10% of my income processing payouts with 0.1 tx fee every hour.
I already said that 0.1 is ridiculous, then said it's a joke, because I realised that you have no clue how it works at all and probably it's a waste of time to start explanations.
Me and another people should not suffer losses because you have no enough money to keep price at desired level.

Be aware you will need the txid to look it up. You can't look up transactions by address.

It does you no good to run a Monero pool if the blockchain becomes too large and the coin becomes impractical to use at all.

If (some of) your payout transactions are <20k then you will likely benefit from per-kb fees.

Also I know some of the pools have switched to 3 hour payments. You might consider something like that.

Ultimately the market will have to find the right equilibrium between speed of pool payments and cost.

BTW, you aren't doing your users any service by making very small payouts to them. It makes their transactions much larger when they try to spend.

Now I don't understand anything at all, including how the two parts belong together.

Obviously, this high fee proposal related to manipulations, not to blockchain size. It's just insane that someone saying that 0.7% of block reward for transaction is no enough. Let's see how it will be accepted. Tx-size based fees would be cool, I was never against.

Why have Bitmonerod show - No IGD was found?   

[fluffypony]

Why have Bitmonerod show - No IGD was found?   

It's a miniupnpc thing. You can run Monero without it.

[RentaMouse]

Why have Bitmonerod show - No IGD was found?   

That's fine, just means it cant find UPnP in order to open ports automatically, you can ignore it.

It does seem to be a filesystem error, when you started using the new --data-dir setting bitmonerod will create new p2pstate.bin and poolstate.bin files once it has found some peers and received some txes from them, seems like that is where yours is getting stuck. Has to be a low level freeze if "End process" in Task Manager doesnt work, must admit I'm suspicious that KIS has decided it doesnt like monero any more - for it to be a general hardware/system error I'd be expecting you to have a lot more serious problems with Windows.

Maybe its worth trying out VirtualBox and creating an Ubuntu virtual machine in that to run your bitmonerod on? Its not as hard as it might sound, and it could potentially be more secure

When does Bitmonerod show - No IGD was found, it makes more
 200 outgoing connections but there is very few traffic ... Then Bitmonerod  check one connection, it's failed, close bad connection, open new, again close bad connection,  go to next & etc. I had to sync bitmonerod on last blockchain just one time when "UPnP device was found but not recoginzed as IGD" but i used  old default data folder -
 C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\BitMonero\

There are NO p2pstate.bin and poolstate.bin in my new --data-dir for  bitmonerod.exe!
New --data-dir have
bitmonerod.exe, bitmonerod.bat, blockchain.bin, wallet.bin.keys, wallet.bin.address.txt & simplewallet.exe. That's all at all.

not positive, but may have a look at the create times on the p2pstate.bin and poolstate.bin's in C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\BitMonero\ , as that is where they live in most cases i have run into. (edit - i'm not sure what the --data-dir override does exactly, but i've never seen those p2pstate.bin or poolstate.bin reside in the exe's directory before)...

 What does this error of bitmonerod mean?
Some problems at write:
software on your host computer severed  established connection:
