Monero Support

So for example lets say i have a balance of 1000.  I sent 300 successfully, however next time i attempt to send it says i can only send 12.8 moneros...  even tho that these are OLD coins.

Some of your coins may get "locked" after a transfer, but they should become available within a few minutes/blocks, I think.

Correct. For example:

1. You have one output that was sent to you for 1000 coins.
2. You spend 300 coins, using your 1000 coin output
3. 700 will be sent back to you as change, but that transfer will need to confirm like any other, so shown by the wallet as locked until it does.

Thanks guys!  I made a recent transfer and for some reason it was saying that I could only send 12 monero even tho the unlocked balance was much higher.  After a bit of time it did allow me to send more.

Smooth explained the reason (change transactions awaiting confirmation before returning to your usable wallet balance) in the post just preceding yours.

running latest version on win 64 bit VM...

when I run bitmonerod the cmd window gets stuck on "initializing P2P server..."

I didn't wait for a long time. Am I supposed to wait more than 10 minutes before it starts showing other output that is loading the complete history of the block chain?

What am I missing?

^It's about 2-3 minutes on my pc on the "initializing P2P server...". Try running it with --seed-node. Here are some currently running nodes from my log file:

Code:

bitmonerod --seed-node 80.71.13.36:18080 --seed-node 89.189.150.244:18080 --seed-node 106.186.122.39:18080 --seed-node 63.141.254.186:18080 --seed-node 37.187.75.56:18080 --seed-node 130.89.162.205:18080 --seed-node 212.129.27.81:18080 --seed-node 195.46.123.236:18080 --seed-node 182.92.105.136:18080 --seed-node 198.27.64.122:18080 --seed-node 62.210.207.219:18080 --seed-node 212.129.44.156:18080

On one of my PCs (ironically the much faster one with SSD, heaps of RAM and CPU power) it's stuck on "initializing P2Pserver" for up to 30 mins, on the subnotebook it takes only about 10 seconds....why? I don't know  

both synchronize eventually.

I get the following error on bitmonero wallet v0.8.8.6-release

Error: not enough outputs for specified mixin_count = 4:
output amount = 0.024590360000, fount outputs to mix = 1

The transaction will go through with a mixin of 1 but not with a mixin of 4. It has happened for my last two transactions so I suspect a wallet issue, may be related to mixing change transactions.

The transaction will go through with a mixin of 1 but not with a mixin of 4. It has happened for my last two transactions so I suspect a wallet issue, may be related to mixing change transactions.

When the fee was 0.1, we also had the dust threshold set to 0.1 which meant anything <0.1 was not broken down into denominations. These undenominated amounts tend to be unique and they can't be mixed. The current threshold is 0.01, so it happens only with smaller amounts. In the future I think it will be 0.

One workaround is to try the transaction a few times. There is some randomization in which outputs the wallet uses for a spend transaction. If it doesn't pick those odd outputs, the problem doesn't occur.

A longer term solution is to create a new wallet, or do a one-time unmixed spend of the entire current balance (which clears out the wallet off all old outputs, effectively making it new again). That will link those amounts together on the blockchain but future spends will be mixable so the trail is broken.

Thanks. I figured something along these lines. One question; Would a coin control feature to spend all of these un denominated amounts to a new wallet work?

Yes a coin control feature would be helpful to both avoid having those old outputs included in a transaction when not wanted, and for cleaning them up.

Somewhat related:  If I want to move thousands of XMR, would it make future spends simpler if it is done in smaller chunks now?

Probably yes. The very large amounts are not so readily mixable, because there aren't as many other outputs of the same size, similar to the smaller ones.

So I would stick to standard "moderate" sizes.

Thousands should be okay though. Tens of thousands is where you start to have the issue.

There's a bug with the 0.8.8.6 wallet converter that's fixed in 0.8.8.7 (not tagged yet) - are you able to compile the latest version from Github? Alternatively, you can use 0.8.8.6 and restore from your mnemonic seed, or failing that I can see if I can give you a more recent build of simplewallet for your OS.
