[ANN] AEON: Scalable, private, mobile-friendly cryptocurrency

Hello everyone! aeond.exe begins to download the entire blockchain in computer memory. Is this how it should be?

Yes, and therefore your computer needs to have enough RAM (at least 6~8GB). This problem will be solved in the near future when the underlying database technology gets replaced.

You can type 'save' in the console and it will save the current downloaded portion to disk and release the memory.

I don't think aeond releases the memory after the 'save' command; it just saves the blockchain to the disc.

Hi guys,

is there any possibility to change directory for blockchain? I tried to run cmd with --data-dir where i moved the blockchain, but it started to download the blockchain from beginning.

Thanks

Correct. However, what is the case is that once the sync is finished if you disable automatic saving (--disable-save) then you can get by with a lot less memory usage, probably 1-2 GB (as long as you have swap configured for the rest)

I just did a test by moving my blockchain file and restarting with --data-dir and it worked fine. Loaded the blockchain from the file in the new location.

Does anyone still have problems withdrawing from HitBTC? I still have one Aeons over there that I did not withdraw during the upgrade. I do not mind waiting for 24 hours as along as the coins arrive in my wallet.

[editfmah]

I'm unable to even get to the withdraw section, it's entirely blank for me on Safari/Chrome on Mac.

[LoSwaga]

So,

I have made progress here. I was able to sync and get my wallet connected. However, when I did a test withdraw from bittrex I am not seeing the coin show up in my wallet? What are typical transaction times? Maybe this is a bittrex issue? I have "refreshed" a few times and still no change. I am assuming once I run the "aeond.exe" I dont need to run it again with simplewallet running, right? I have left "aeond.exe" open while using the wallet. Is that the right thing to do?

**Edit - I think I may have jumped the gun. It says i am still quite a few blocks behind on my sync. I am assuming I need to be caught up completely before I will be able to see my AEON?

Start up aeond and let it sync fully. Once it's safe to open simplewallet it will tell you that in aeond. It may take a number of hours to sync fully if it's your first time and you have less then blazing fast internet.  Once it reaches that point you can open simplewallet, but leave aeond open until after you close simplewallet. Always type "exit" in both programs to close them or it won't save things and you will have to resync.

I keep getting the following message:

When it finished synchronizing it will say the following.

"**********************************************************************
You are now synchronized with the network. You may now start simplewallet.

Please note, that the blockchain will be saved only after you quit the daemon with "exit" command or if you use "save" command.
Otherwise, you will possibly need to synchronize the blockchain again.

Use "help" command to see the list of available commands.
**********************************************************************"

The message you are seeing will show up from time to time, but as long as it has shown what I just posted you are ok to open simplewallet.

Hi guys, new pool on the way


Has anyone seen the following error?
Error with transfer RPC request to wallet daemon {"code":-4,"message":"not enough outputs to mix"}

So...my mixin is set to 3, but i did try to lower mixin to 2 and even 1 but no luck (mixin=1 gets rejected by the daemon, mixin 2 throws same error)

Perfect thanks for your help. I'm in business now. I did a few test transactions all seems to be working. It takes a second to adapt to the command window interface over some sort of GUI when using a crypto but I actually prefer it in a way.

Cant get the deamon to sync. Keep getting this message:
2017-Oct-15 12:02:51.728024 [P2P5]Failed to connect to any of seed peers, continuing without seeds

Any one knows what to do? Google can't help me with this one. Tried on two different PCs and on an Gbit Rootserver (Windows) but I can't get it to sync ..
Any other way to download the blockchain?

Need some help please!

Taking aeon-pool(dot)com as a pool example, how can I grab my dashboard information from the linux command line? I suppose it can be done through curl and the pool's API, I'd just appreciate it if someone provides an example.

Thanks in advnace.

When recovering the aeon wallet from the Mnemonic Seed, is it still done like this?

Go to the folder containing simplewallet and run "./simplewallet --restore-deterministic-wallet", entering your mnemonic seed when prompted. NOTE that this will simply restore your wallet keys. You will still need to scan a blockchain (either your local blockchain or a remote blockchain) to see your balance and make transactions.

havent tried it yet myself since there was never a need, but would be good to know in case

Yeah had that in mind but want to verify first, that this is the common practice to retreive a wallet from seed before making it public
