BitShares PTS / Re: Upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and now ptsminer won't run.

I just saw the 14.04 upgrade notification on my laptop.  I opted for no.

I would google around and find the right repo that has boost 1.53.  I recall having to install it from other repositories before. It just isn't in the default repositories, so you'll need to add the repo before you can apt-get install it.
I'm a bit of a Linux novice. I'm not sure what you mean by "find the right repo". How do I do that?

BitShares PTS / Upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 and now ptsminer won't run.
« on: April 21, 2014, 09:36:26 pm »
 When I try to run it I get:

./ptsminer: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.53.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Poking around, it looks like the upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 caused an upgrade of libboost to 1.54.0. Can ptsminer run with the newer version of libboost? If so, How?

I tried installing 1.53 using apt-get but it fails.
E: Unable to locate package libboost1.53-dev-all
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libboost1.53-dev-all'

Also, protoshares-qt fails to start, for what I assume are similar reasons.

@BigChase:
follow what i write/wrote davidm.

@davidm:
you enter the address from your wallet you want to sign a message with
then you type in the message and then you can get the signature for that message from your address
after this you PM me the message, the signature and the address here in the forum so i can verify everything

for further infomration: pls, google
this is a (useful) feature for all altcoins based on bitcoin

When you say "the original protoshares client" do you mean protoshares-qt? How do I send a message with it?

And there's still something weird going on because there's still only that one new block and it's still awaiting confirmation 10 hours later.
yes, protoshares-qt.
"File" -> "Sign Message" -> enter address, a message and clock "Sign Message", send me the information (address+message+signature) via PM.

the latest :( block #34388 was confirmed on block #34508, just a few minutes ago

Excuse me for being dense but what address do I enter? Your protoshares address (from your sig)? If I message you through Protoshares-qt why do I also need to send you a PM?

davidm, send me a signed message from the correct address using the original protoshares client so i can verify that you're the owner
and name me the wrong address, so i can merge the payouts manually

I think I found it. I restarted ptsminer at some point and somehow the wallet address I gave it was missing 2 characters, so I guess I was generating protoshares for a nonexistent wallet.  :'(
What's weird is that the 2 characters weren't missing from the beginning or the end of the string; they were the 6th and 7th characters from the end.   ???  I always copy and paste the address from the protoshares wallet GUI so I can't imagine how characters were dropped from inside the string rather than one end or the other. Very strange. I've just lost some of my faith in Ubuntu copy and paste. I'll be carefully eyeballing every character of that address in the future.
Yep. That was the problem. I just restarted ptsminer with the correct address and almost immediately beeeeer showed a new block awaiting confirmation. It's the first new block since 12/18.

it's pretty unlikely that it stopped
and it's more unlikely that it only stopped for you (as nobody else complaining)

maybe you can check you miner state and/or post or PM your stats-url so we can help you more.

Has beeeeer stopped updating their stats? They're not showing anything for me since 12/18.  :-\

The thread from your second link was a huge help. I successfully compiled it, it successfully connected, and it's now in the process of synchronizing (it's a few weeks behind). Thank you!

I just successfully compiled it thanks to this thread. Where does it look for wallet.dat and the conf file?

That first link seems to be talking about building something called Bitcoin-qt. Will that work for Protoshares?

Mr. Bytemaster, if you really wanted to help people why didn't you tell them that the new wallet will not work if they do not search for and delete the current wallet.dat file? We have a programmer on staff otherwise no way I would have known that --causing more delays delays delays. It does not go away even if you uninstall the original software and will prevent new wallet from opening.
If we delete the current wallet.dat file, won't we lose all of the protoshares that were in it?

I have uploaded a new wallet with more seed nodes built in: http://the-iland.net/static/downloads/windows-protoshares-0.3.0.zip
Unless I'm missing something, the files in that archive have the same sizes and modification dates as the files in protoshares-0.2.0.zip. Maybe you made a mistake?
