0.9.3c Doesn't work

Open RenaudGagne opened this issue 9 years ago • 16 comments

For the life of me, I have tried to install 0.9.3 five time and can't get pass the "reset blockchain". I spent a whole day waiting and I can't even have an opportunity to see what's going on inside my account.

I assume you're aware that BitShares 2 has now launched? The 0.9 network is now deprecated.

I have my wallet backup from the previous version. (0.9.2) Can I use this backup for BitShares 2?

I'm not sure if that's possible or not. The supported method is indeed to use 0.9.3c, but you don't need to sync in order to backup your wallet. Just export it from the file menu without bothering to sync. If you can't get past the splash screen, try deleting the chain folder in the data directory and then reopening the application.

so even if my JSON key was not 100% synced up to date, all my funds will still be imported upon rejoining it into the new Graphene chain?

As far as I know, yes. Chain state should not directly affect what keys you have generated... But I suppose it's possible you might be missing new TITAN transfers... It's been too long since I was in that code. :]

I now got the .json file, downloaded the lightwallet but when I get to importing, it says that it doesn't recognise *.json ....also, where is the console?

RenaudGagne avatar Oct 28 '15 16:10 RenaudGagne

The 2.0 GUI does not have a console built-in. You'll have to build and run the cli_wallet separately.

Make sure you're telling the 2.0 GUI to import keys from a 0.9 wallet, and not importing a 2.0 wallet. The GUI is not sufficiently clear on this distinction.

So now that I have my backup from 0.9.3c, what is the easiest way for me to actually import it? (I don't want to create a build)

RenaudGagne avatar Oct 28 '15 19:10 RenaudGagne

On bitshares.openledger.info you click "Existing Accounts" then "Import from BitShares 0.9.3C"

nathanielhourt avatar Oct 29 '15 18:10 nathanielhourt

BitShares Wallet Backup.json is an unrecognized format ? (That the message I get)

RenaudGagne avatar Oct 30 '15 13:10 RenaudGagne

I'm not sure. My best guess is that it's a backup from 0.9.2 or earlier...? If you're sure it's from 0.9.3c, I recommend filing an issue at https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-2-ui

Hi nathanhourt. I finally kinda was able to import my keys into the light wallet. But now, I can't find the place to do the command line to claim my balance. Where is it?

RenaudGagne avatar Nov 04 '15 18:11 RenaudGagne

You shouldn't need the CLI to claim your balances. It should have prompted you for it as soon as you imported your keys. I don't remember off-hand how to get back to that screen, but if memory serves you start by hitting the + icon at the bottom-left of an account page. The UI is a tad confusing to navigate in that regard.

Kind of figure which key I had to import but now my wallet is missing about 70000BTS

Where is my money?

RenaudGagne avatar Nov 09 '15 16:11 RenaudGagne

I really can't say. I recommend poking the devs on one of the bitshares 2 repos.

nathanielhourt avatar Nov 10 '15 16:11 nathanielhourt

alright, I think I figured it out. For future reference: Someone has to download the entire 1.0 blockchain and put it in place of their current chain folder: https://mega.nz/#!ag43RZLY!T-pGaYmLJPBR2sUKOkztZkPLVyZHiM8BcAPPiwRgxc8

Then go in command line of windows (if they use windows): c:/program files/Bitshares/bin>bitshares_client.exe --rebuild-index

Then scan the blockchain through the command line of bitshares 0.9.3c once the index is rebuilt.
