I can build the binaries, I just don't know how to package them.  They don't seem to work unless the file structure is intact.

edit.  here are some updated instructions.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cmake git libreadline-dev uuid-dev g++ libdb++-dev libdb-dev zip libssl-dev openssl build-essential python-dev autotools-dev libicu-dev libbz2-dev libboost-dev libboost-all-dev qt5-default libqt5webkit5-dev npm nodejs-legacy
git clone https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx.git
cd bitsharesx
git checkout 0.4.5 (use the version number you want to build in this place.)
git submodule init
git submodule update
cd programs/web_wallet
sudo npm install -g lineman
sudo npm install
cd ../..
cmake -DINCLUDE_QT_WALLET=ON .
make buildweb
make
If all goes well you will have an executable named BitSharesX in /bitsharesx/programs/qt_wallet/bin that will be your gui wallet.

This is how I have been doing it.

To upgrade cd bitsharesx
git pull https://github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx.git "put version number here without quotes"
git submodule update
cmake -DINCLUDE_QT_WALLET=ON .
make buildweb
make
This last update threw an error at the make buildweb step about htdocs already existing.  I ended up just renaming bitsharesx/programs/qt_wallet/htdocs and trying again.

There should be a json file you can manually edit.  What OS are you on?

**edit** there might not be.  If you don't have a backup of the wallet, you might need to open the wallet in the command line interface.  That will allow you to set the logout time.

I would suggest you wait til someone that knows more about this than me answers to do anything drastic.

How are people depositing in BTER then? That's the only info they provide.

Does it works with Linux with account # and no name? Sorry stupid win user I am.

You add it as a local contact account first and then send to it just like a registered account.  The command line is wallet_add_contact_account <user name> <key>
In the GUI you go to your account select transfer, and then to the right of the contact name entry box there should be a green button with a + and a little person.  Click that to add a local contact account.

**edit**  I just tried and bter is already registered under another key, so it wont allow you to create a local account that conflicts with a registered account.  just name it something that hasn't already been registered.

Comparing the downloads in the VPS and on my home computer, my home windows computer is blocking parts of the download.

In the AppData folder I am missing 3 of the files:

peers.leveldb
wallet.dat
node.config.json

Anyone know why my computer is blocking these and how to unblock them from being downloaded?

These files are generated by the client when it is running.  To the best of my knowledge they are a list of known peers, your wallet file that is saved when you create a wallet, and a configuration file. 

If you have never created a wallet you could delete your entire data directory, and it would simply be rebuilt when the program is run.

You are likely missing these files because the program is terminating before they can be written.

Exactly.   Love the pun.

BTSX76TAEgPBhGNfgkfNjPmzEu31a2kGqYUL2umUFZaSYWi1R57CiV adds just fine.  Not sure if thats your key though.

Not anymore.  blew that away.  Now I have: XTS6v4boE6wB42Lp21tiFZRUc5kDq21UHFKXEhBf9EUJm1dvBNu8q

which I also can't add.

I don't think that's the right set of keys.   Try a wallet _ list _ my _ accounts on your Linux box and get the key that way.   It should start with BTSX not XTS. 

Now that I think of it,  did you build the source code from github.com/bitshares/bitshares _ toolkit or from github.com/dacsunlimited/bitsharesx?

Galt,

Yes. Do it soon. I paid 7 BTS yesterday to register, so the price may go up.

Okay, just not sure how to send it to my delegate account that isn't registered yet.

wallet_add_contact_account <account name> <public key>

When I tried to add that key you posted it threw an error though.

Yeah, I got 10 assert exception.

Same here.  The base58str.substr( 0, prefix_len ) == BTS_ADDRESS_PREFIX:
    {"base58str":"XTS76TAEgPBhGNfgkfNjPmzEu31a2kGqYUL2umUFZaSYWi1R57CiV"}
    bitshares  types.cpp:22 public_key_type part of the error leads me to believe that the key is not valid.  I would double check it if I was you.  If that doesn't work delete that local account (on your linux box) and create a new one.
