[XMR] MoneroX - A cross platform graphical account manager for Monero

Ok, thanks for sharing these very useful information.
No doubt about the efforts of the Monero devs. Definitely best anon coin around, imho.

Is it normal that v0.39.0-alpha.2 doesn't even recognize my old wallet (which works in 0.38.1.)?
Seems to keep initializing forever.

Monero Client .NET v0.39.0-alpha.3 has been released!
Please be aware that this is a test release, thus, it isn't being beamed by auto-update. You can download it from here.


Disclaimer

This release is experimental and should not be used in production, but for testing purposes only. It is meant to bring the core development team a bigger tester base for using the new daemon and rpcwallet.

There are some known bugs in this version which are already being worked on by the core development team:

• You must wait for the daemon to initialize its RPC service before entering your wallet password
  (Wait for the synchronization status icon to appear in the main window)
  
  
• You cannot create a new wallet, but use an already existing one

Have fun using the new build, and please give feedback about it, as it would be valuable for the entire Monero team.


Changes

• Added support for sending bigger (split) transactions
• Improved stability by changing 'GET' requests' type to 'POST', as suggested in the JSON-RPC 2.0 Specification

Well, I'm not sure about that, as the migration worked just fine for me back then... Please ensure that you don't enter your wallet passphrase before the daemon initializes, check whether rpcwallet.exe is running in the background after about 5 minutes, and inform me whether my software requests you to enter a password on startup. If these are not the symptoms, then try re-indexing your wallet file by deleting the '.bin', and keeping the '.bin.keys'. This can take up to 30 minutes, and after that, it automatically saves in 6 minutes.

Thanks for testing!

I have an issue, if anyone can help with it.  I am running ver. 0.38.1 and it has worked fine for me.  Today was first time I have tried to send any coins out of it though and it goes non responsive every time I try to send.  Didn't know if this was a known problem or not.

Can you describe the issue more detailed, please? Does the program just simply hang, freeze, or crashes? If the last one is the case, please post the content of 'CrashLogs.txt' here, which can be found at the root of the software's directory.

Also, please check whether the simplewallet and bitmonerod processes are running after the transaction's initiation.

It just freezes up.  Wallet goes into "Not Responding" and will stay that way.  Have to force close it and reopen it back up.  Send will never go through.  As for your last suggestion, will check tomorrow as my system with wallet installed is at my work.  Mind explaining how to check those?

No password request shows up, GUI says initializing for the wallet. rpcwallet.exe never starts. I deleted the wallet.bin, but after half an hour, still nothing happened.
There is not much CPU activity to be seen, moneroclient.net.exe is idling at 1-2% and bitmonerod.exe does nothing.

Et voila, 0.38.1 starts to crash again after playing around with the unstable releases (of course in different paths):

It happens after recognizing the wallet (e.g. after entering passwords when creating a new wallet). When there is a wallet already existing, it crashes even before the password prompt. Deleting blockchain doesn't make any difference.

I will certainly not recover my Windows backup again since I'm pretty sure now that it must be a bug in the app.

hi Jojatekok, (edit: its me the shoutout guy ^)

 i got the client up and running (3.81) and sync'd with a new wallet. then i quit.

now, when i run the client, it does start syncing after a minute or two, but the wallet does not load. stays in "initializing"

i have no other processes or applications running that are using the wallet.bin (that i know of)...
any ideas?

edit 2: i have shutdown/restarted... no effect.

the crash log shows shows:

I'll be sure to check your case as soon as I get home. It seems that your daemon RPC cannot be used, it's probably because it conflicts with an application which already uses its port (which is - by default - 18081). In the file explorer, go to '%LocalAppData%\Jojatekok\MoneroClient.Net', and open 'user.config' with a text editor. You will see a line like this:

Code:

<network rpcUrlHost="localhost" rpcUrlPortDaemon="18081" rpcUrlPortWallet="18082" isProxyEnabled="false" proxyHost="" />

Try adjusting your daemon and wallet ports between 0 and 65535, until the software works.

hey, so i changed the port numbers but no effect.  however, when i run the bitmonerod , it shows the port numbers are not being updated... so while the user.config file is changed, its not being updated when running everything again...

Well, I'm not sure about that, as the migration worked just fine for me back then... Please ensure that you don't enter your wallet passphrase before the daemon initializes, check whether rpcwallet.exe is running in the background after about 5 minutes, and inform me whether my software requests you to enter a password on startup.

I will certainly not recover my Windows backup again since I'm pretty sure now that it must be a bug in the app.

The first alpha version of the 0.39.0 releases introduce a new version of the settings file, which is located at '%LocalAppData%\Jojatekok\MoneroClient.Net\user.config'. Please delete it, or if you want to keep your settings while downgrading, just open it in a text editor, and change <tt><metaData settingsVersion="4" /></tt> into <tt><metaData settingsVersion="3" /></tt>. Also, don't forget to relocate <tt>softwareWallet="Resources\Software\rpcwallet.exe"</tt> into <tt>softwareWallet="Resources\Software\simplewallet.exe"</tt>.

As for your rpcwallet issue, I will look into it deeper as soon as I have access to my personal wallet at home, so I will be able to test things more toughly. It is weird that the password request box doesn't show up - some people said that it happens since v0.36.0. Do you have any problems with v0.38.1? If so, does v0.35.0 or even v0.36.0 work for you?

I'll be sure to check your case as soon as I get home. It seems that your daemon RPC cannot be used, it's probably because it conflicts with an application which already uses its port (which is - by default - 18081). In the file explorer, go to '%LocalAppData%\Jojatekok\MoneroClient.Net', and open 'user.config' with a text editor. You will see a line like this:

Code:

<network rpcUrlHost="localhost" rpcUrlPortDaemon="18081" rpcUrlPortWallet="18082" isProxyEnabled="false" proxyHost="" />

Try adjusting your daemon and wallet ports between 0 and 65535, until the software works.

hey, so i changed the port numbers but no effect.  however, when i run the bitmonerod , it shows the port numbers are not being updated... so while the user.config file is changed, its not being updated when running everything again...

Please try deleting your application settings file, as described above.

[krawallmining]

The first alpha version of the 0.39.0 releases introduce a new version of the settings file, which is located at '%LocalAppData%\Jojatekok\MoneroClient.Net\user.config'. Please delete it, or if you want to keep your settings while downgrading, just open it in a text editor, and change <tt><metaData settingsVersion="4" /></tt> into <tt><metaData settingsVersion="3" /></tt>. Also, don't forget to relocate <tt>softwareWallet="Resources\Software\rpcwallet.exe"</tt> into <tt>softwareWallet="Resources\Software\simplewallet.exe"</tt>.

As for your rpcwallet issue, I will look into it deeper as soon as I have access to my personal wallet at home, so I will be able to test things more toughly. It is weird that the password request box doesn't show up - some people said that it happens since v0.36.0. Do you have any problems with v0.38.1? If so, does v0.35.0 or even v0.36.0 work for you?

Thanks, this works. Maybe there should also be a path option for this available in the GUI?
Just tried 35 & 36, like 38.1, they seem to work fine. Only with 39 builds, password request doesn't show up.

hi Jojatekok, (edit: its me the shoutout guy ^)

 i got the client up and running (3.81) and sync'd with a new wallet. then i quit.

now, when i run the client, it does start syncing after a minute or two, but the wallet does not load. stays in "initializing"

i have no other processes or applications running that are using the wallet.bin (that i know of)...
any ideas?

edit 2: i have shutdown/restarted... no effect.

the crash log shows shows:

i deleted the user.config file. it created a new file on next startup. this looks different than the previous version. there are no port numbers listed in the file anymore.

using the cmd line: C:\> netstat -a -b

it appears that the lsass.exe (Local Security Authentication Server) is using TCP port 18081 ...

edit: ran this line: netsh int ipv4 set dynamicport tcp start=10000 num=1000
to force the random port assignments to be >20000.
the wallet.bin still can't be loaded and stays in initializing.

Monero has the best GUI wallet made for Windows.

[bingopoint]

Thanks Monero community for the best Windows wallet in the world!

I have tried this wallet and it is awesome. Everyone should install it.

ugh... these shill posts make me nauseous

The path for storing the settings should not be altered, as the current solution is what most of your PC programs use.

Your daemon works just fine now, it still seems to be a port conflict for me. Adjusting the daemon and wallet ports should probably help you out.

If you still have some doubts about this wallet - you are wrong. Wallet works great.

Yes, so far no problems with transactions to and from Polo etc.
Nicely done, pretty much plug & play.

Jojatekok,

dont worry about me anymore.

i just figured out how to use the bitmonerod and simplewallet directly... so made some new wallets and all seems fine.

thanks for your help and best of luck

ugh... these shill posts make me nauseous 

It's unbelievable, and they're shilling to children, too.

Even have a fake rich bloke that pops up pretending he is something or other and has considerable holdings, and is waiting to sell at 0.1.

I'm using v0.38.1 and received coins from pool, but I also send some coins to a exchange(Mintpal) but after 30min still no pending and can't see a transaction id in the wallet.(bitmonerod and simplewallet is open)

Also I get passphrase only if I run it in administration.

A lot of strange guys here, in XMR topics. Hm, i'm pretty sure that this is not coincidence.
