Title: carnt get my account to sync
Post by: stuartcharles on March 29, 2015, 04:28:59 pm

After not loading my account for 6 months i finally got it to sync after repeatedly starting again until it downloaded the full blockchain. It worked fine for a few weeks now it has been stuck for 6 days on block 2074788. This time its not asking if i want to re download the blockchain, how do i force it (if thats what i need to do)

Any advice appreciated

install version 0.8.*
If you are on linux you should start it with "--rebuild-index" after the upgrade ..
in on windows .. you should do the same with the bitshares_client binary .. not the GUI binary ..

Though easiest way would be to way a little until the devs release a new version .. it seems the current one has a log-memory leak that will fill up your hard drive after a while ..
