GLBSE stock exchange up and trading.

[Nefario]

Seemly I cannot buy anything. It throws some HTML page with twitter complaining of illegal JSON with illegal timestamp.

That sounds like a new one, any chance you could post the error?

Can't get at the server right now, so it's not something I can fix until tonight, but if I were to guess I would say that twitter may have blocked the account. At least that would be my first guess, which is why it's spitting out an error with something about twitter in it (when making a buy or sell order the system will attempt to post it to the twitter stream), it's not something I'd put in a rescue statement (looking back that seems like a mistake).

SO, wait about 8 hours before this one is resolved. It may cause the entire exchange to go offline (how are people supposed to trade if they can't see any of the offers?)

Is there a maximum length on tickers? I plan to use the ticker WIN for BitcoinTournament.com however, I want a ticker that will be general enough for when I branch the business out in to other things like selling steam games etc. But, I can't think of a short ticker that would work. I want to use Universalbit.

Yes, the error is the one this guy posted.

[Nefario]

Thanks for your posts guys, the problems been fixed. The clock on the server was too out of sync from twitters service.

[Nefario]

The exchange has been brough down for repairs, will be back up ASAP, and will notify once it's up.

[Nefario]

Repairs made and market is back up. Sorry for any inconvieniences.

On a related note, please don't send funds to the same address more than once, this will lock your account if you do this as it causes your books to go out of balance.

[josell]

My stocks, are frozen or just unaccesible during this reparation?

My stocks, are frozen or just unaccesible during this reparation?

So I'm working on the security of GLBSE, and while this is happening the server is down, so no nothing is frozen, you can think of it as the market being closed.

Let me know if you need any more info.

Is there a html file created with the debug output in the bmc.py dir called output.debug.html

Post that please.

[sal002]

I am having issues with the web client.  I just get a blank pop-up box when I try to login

[Ben Walsh (beamer)]

No html files were generated.

[Ben Walsh (beamer)]

Is anyone else seeing a problem with the bitcoin-history, asset-history and market-history commands on the 2.0 version of the bmc.py client ?

[Ben Walsh (beamer)]

I am also having a problem making a sell order for the last of one of my shares. I would like to know if anyone else has encountered anything similar ...

I own X shares of asset Y.

I can successfully place a sell order for X-1 shares of asset Y.

When I attempt to place a sell order for the last share of asset Y, I get the following error message ...

     bob@bob-laptop2:~/bitcoin_stuff/bmc/black-market-black-market-client$ ./bmc.py sell 1 <asset-name> 9999999999
     Enter passphrase:
     Problem: You do not have enough unreserved assets to make this order, please cancel another order to allow

Seems to be specifically limited to my shares in asset Y, as I can successfully place sell orders for my full quantity of shares in other assets. Attempts to place further sell orders then give the above error message, as would be expected.

I guess a problem with the reservation logic. However, I have been juggling a couple of accounts and transferring assets between them, so maybe the state of this particular account is less common than "normal".

Nefario - I will PM you with the user id, specific share, order and quantity details - I don't want to take on any risks by publishing private details in public.
