Technical Support / Blocks stopped syncing after running 'sudo apt-get install ntp'
« on: September 29, 2014, 03:39:10 am »
Getting a node setup, following instructions at: http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Bitshares-x-delegate-how-to
When I had bitsharesx running in another thread, I attempted to install ntp. This resulted in a failed block validation and banning all peer nodes.
When restarted, the network never accepted another block.
To resolve, I removed the index and raw_chain files in .BitsharesX directory in home.
After restarting, was able to resync from the start.
Don't figure this warrants an issue on github, but it might be a more common condition if block validation fails, there should be a way to get back onto the main chain.
