NEM (XEM) Official Thread - 100% New Code - Easy To Use APIs

[nembit86]

Can anyone suggest a browser that doesnt initially reject opening the client and doesnt give you a 'process' to go through where you can ' copy and paste' addresses and public keys?

ironically, until the copy&paste issue is resolved IE should be the browser of choice

would be awesome if the copy paste thing could be fixed to work on Firefox. Sofar I cant manage to get it to run on chrome (wont start java although its activated) and IE is not a choice since I am using Ubuntu. I really dont want to be forced to write my keys down or take a picture.

+1        A look at the Chrome process strikes fear into this non-techie.....lol....

I have JAVA 8, NIS and NCC running.

I go to localhost:8989 and I don't see nothing, just a blank page. Which could be my problem?

Hope I've done everithing right!!

No you haven't done it right.
Either your message is encrypted or you didn't include one at all.

If you have encrypted it you don't need to do anything. You only gave me some manual work to do.
If you haven't included a message at all pm me with the tx-id and a real NEM address.

Well, you got closer than some other people...

Edit:

Actually scratch that. That's the tx-id from when I sent YOU the asset. You realize what the process is don't you ?

would it not be better pat if he sent a message containing an address from the account that sent the stake? just sending you a pm on btt doesnt prove thats his nem stake or his account..

12:05:10 SEVERE Could not acquire exclusive lock to lock file (org.nem.monitor.NemMonitor canStart)

The last line means that?

Means that the nem monitor is already running. Please try to kill all java processes on your machine and then try again (or reboot your machine).

Killed them but get the same lines. Then restarted but get the same lines again.

Try deleting all files in the NEM directory. I presume you have read/write rights to your directory?

Deleted couple of times but same thing. I have all permissions on This folder, subfolders and files.

Since you've tried a few things now i think a restart is in order. Who knows what kind of zombie processes might lurk around and lock that file.
After the restart try it again from scratch. Make sure you delete the folder before the restart.

Try http://127.0.0.1:8989/ncc/web/index.html   

Thank you! It's working 

[atleticofa]

By the way. I see a problem with spanish translation.

I can't see letters like ó á é í ú



There is some problem with the Unicode, ASCII encoding or somethink like that

Still nothing. I think I'll revive my old computer, install Win7 and try there. Need a new fresh OS install there anyways. I need to solve this riddle for the NEM Step 3.

That's absurd.
Can you make a screenshot of your Desktop after you've tried to run it ?

I've sent the message with it.

@patmast3r

Any news about it? I just want to be sure it has been transfered properly.

Thanks

That one looks good.

I would try the standalone version before doing any of that!  


Edit:  Oops...  I just noticed that there is no standalone link for the beta...

Yep...  I went back and re-edited my post again...  lol  

Update: just added the link to the standalone version in the NEM forum beta OP.

[BitcoinForumator]

The standalone version WORKS. I get to the "Create new wallet" etc screen.

The thing is AFTER i'm running this standalone version I run the webclient/NOM after this/simultaneously and it goes past the last line (the "SEVERE could not acquire bla bla bla")

Edit: I think there's a facepalm in order. The .jar standalone v NCC should be running all the time?
Edit2: nah, shutdown everything and ran just the webclient again and it works fine (no "SEVERE" errors)
Edit3: sometimes both versions work and sometimes they don't (SEVERE...) and not sure about the cause/effect relation

[sdersdf3]

I get:
"NIS requires to be booted. Please open your wallet and boot a local node via the popup dialog or configure the auto-boot setting."
this is as far as I've been able to get after trying multiple browsers. I previously got other errors.

GUI looks nice (not like the typical altcoin wallet), and I realise that this is beta, but devs should consider a simple, one-click installation/launch process that doesn't require non-techies to install multiple software packages (and concerns/unknowns about the security risks of doing so) and go through lots of hoops/caveats.

There needs to be a bit more of an eye here toward encouraging adoption by a general audience outside the world of crypto.

[makoto1337]

Devs

Is there any, even very very small possibility, that some two people generate the same address and private key using BETA? Is there some checking to not generate the same address?

It could happen on the same day that you get struck by lightning, win the lottery, get hit by a neutrino, and have your body ripped apart encountering dark matter.

Have you ever heard of that happening with bitcoin ?
It's the same kind of likelihood i think

I think its not per default the same as btc. It depends on the hash seed and the used rand generator. If this is implemented bad/wrong the possibility of collission could be higher. But we have to have trust in devs for many other things, so this doesnt matter more...

SHA3 should be less prone to this than bitcoin's SHA-256.

[makoto1337]

when will be out
REAL NEM COINS???

There is already... in silver and in gold
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=654845.msg8446629#msg8446629


BTW: what means "9999 pure gold and 999 pure silver" ?
I have thought that eg. pure gold is too soft and a practical purity for gold would be 85 - 93 %.

It means what is written.

.9999 pure gold and .999 pure silver is only minted by a few places.  By industry standards, .9999 gold is 24 karat (24 karat meaning pure gold with miniscule microscopic impurities)

Sure you could get 100% pure gold but first you would have to molt it down and send it flying at the speed of light to remove that .00001% impurity

That 99.99 % was just so high ... 
I was thinking if such gold is too soft for coins and at least 2 carats would have been "sacrified" to make the NEM goldcoin stronger

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold
"Because of the softness of pure (24k) gold, it is usually alloyed with base metals for use in jewelry, altering its hardness and ductility, melting point, color and other properties. Alloys with lower carat rating, typically 22k, 18k, 14k or 10k, contain higher percentages of copper or other base metals or silver or palladium in the alloy."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carat_%28purity%29

Just don't use the coins to build your house or for self defense. They are strong enough to look at

Okay, I managed to find that option of "Boot local node" but then I get "missing parameter" which I assume means I have to select a node. What do I put into the node field?
