I'm having some unexplained missed blocks too.
Client was running fine.
I had internet connectivity and plenty of connections.
There were no CPU or HDD spikes.
Still I missed some blocks.
Have you found the reason for your missed blocks ?

I will investigate further tomorrow and inform you. Maybe there is a connection with your case (?)
...for 65 minutes after I have missed with a strange way one block (458545) I have not produced a single block and every time it was my turn, someone else produced it and it was not
recorded as a missed block to me!

I'm observing similar issues. I've checked bitsharesblocks.com too but there are some inconclusive results. As I'm on a holiday I do not have much time for investigation.
I'll update you on any progress though.

We making a push to get delegates to publish feeds for this?  As I understand it, it only makes sense if the market depth is there right?  Is the market depth there?

I'll add EUR to my price feed script as well.

[liondani]

Just FYI I began to make publish the price feed for euro just now !!!

[liondani]

we have 99% participation .. only dac.sun is missing blocks .. all looks good from here ..

whenever a delegate is active you can ignore the 'autolock' feature completely

after the last missed block 458545
now I produced my first one : 458939

But why did I not produced one single block after I lost the block 458545 for about 1 hour? (even my delegate was active and the client running...)
458939-458545=394 blocks multiplied by 10 seconds =3940 seconds = 65  minutes....

Strange way to miss a block ...  ???

lets explain.
I missed the block 458545...
I was in panic again. I checked and I saw that I had the wallet unlocked for only 60 minutes the last time I "played" with the servers around.
That's not the weird thing since I admit it's very possible I unlocked the wallet without using a variable like 99999999 and it was unlocked by default only for 60 minutes....
So I suppose I lost the block because my wallet got to a "locked" mode/state....

But why I didn't miss more blocks after this one ?
why?
why?
...

... and then I saw this one 1 page up on the linux cli client as a message....:

"Wallet not automatically relocking because there are enabled delegates!"


"that's why!" I said to my self...
lets type: info

I thought I must do something about it, very strange,
my wallet seems "unlocked" but here it says it was unlocked before 4 hours !!!
So is it unlocked or not?
so I decided to:
"wallet_unlock 88888888"
gave my password and typed info again:

I normally should produce the next block after 10 minutes....  BUT NO !!!!!!!!
After the 10 minutes past .... no block production!
Then again:   "wallet_next_block_production_time": "10 minutes in the future",
after 10 minutes no block again !!!
Then again:   "wallet_next_block_production_time": "4 minutes in the future",
after 4 minutes no block production from my delegate again !!!!

What happens?
Is it an attack?
Please help!

already back at 100% participation .. don't take it too hard .. it's just some arbitrary blocks .. some few EUR lost .. not worth being in bad mood .. take a look at the price rise .. that will make you feel better again ;-)

the price rise make me feel much better of course !!!!!


PS It's not the "EUR" I lost, my only concern is that reliability drops again  ::)
