Hi All,
In the aim of learning and becoming more experienced with bitcoin/altcoin I have decided to create my own coin (not going to release it, just create it for the fun) but I am having problems when trying to run the daemon.
I get the error
./TestCoind
TestCoind: main.cpp:2555: bool LoadBlockIndex(bool): Assertion `block.hashMerkleRoot == uint256("0x000006fd9b83d4243967adc6e7d2826dedbf2c27b6586d7bdac67250d2120b61")' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
So I had a read around google and came across a site which says to check the debug log, So I did and it showed me this
CBlock(hash=5e2fed58e24adb777e9e8ebea2c98f93854c9d84c69d77f7bd0b7ac06e5a6380, ver=1, hashPrevBlock=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, hashMerkleRoot=7f531b970548bfea820871baaf2e5b2db0aef49d629a4de8b733426d54f5bc9d, nTime=1411026938, nBits=1e0fffff, nNonce=713214, vtx=1, vchBlockSig=)

block.hashMerkleRoot == 7f531b970548bfea820871baaf2e5b2db0aef49d629a4de8b733426d54f5bc9d
block.nTime = 1411026938
block.nNonce = 713214
So I tried these settings in the code and rebuild but still get the same error. is there a more foolproof way to fix this or get the merklehash, I have been at it for hours
also, is there a merkle hash I can use for any coin, say if I wanted to create another one?
Regards,
Sanquin
