Title: Connection Issues - "Severe Network Problems"
Post by: AJ on September 11, 2014, 06:46:07 am
Hey all,

Not sure if others have had this issue or if its on my end- just like to report this. I'm unaware if there is a fix for this, or if its my internet connection acting up. I've been having issues the past few days. This error is brand new though.  Every 1 minute or so- at the bottom of the Bitshares X (in red) repeats itself saying, "Severe Network Problems".  This happened right after I updated just 10 minutes ago.

Here is what it looks like:

Then it turns 'green' and says, "blocks are synced" with a check mark and full bars in the signal strength.

Any suggestions?

my guess would be it IS NOT yet fully synced

you can check by going to the console and typing either "getinfo" or "blockchain_is_synced"

that is, too, an issue with the GUI.
all those indices are basically variables that should have been replaced by the underlying framework ..

don't ask me why they weren't :(

the assert exception might be solvable by an update to 0.4.14 ..

I've been getting the "severe network issue" too. It's fine, then it flashes red for a few seconds then goes back to fine. I think it's when a time expires waiting for a block to download. It seems a bit more aggressive than in previous versions.

maybe it just happends instantanously once a delegate misses a block .. currently a few (<10) do miss blocks

I'm going to update my client in the next couple hours, and report the status of this issue.

Are the variables localized? Perhaps they are missing translations for bitsharesrussia's (presumably) Russian OS environment?

1) download the file https://github.com/BitShares/web_wallet/tree/master/app/static
2) open it in the notepad
3) fix the issues
4) send it to mail@xeroc.org

I will do the rest and submit it to the devs ..
