0.5.3 wont sync

[bitmarley]

I had the same problem and I fixed it by resetting the database (not rescan, reset). I think there is a command line way to reset the database but the way I did it was to force quit the client and then upon next opening a dialog box asked me if I wanted to reset and I said YES. Then everything worked.

Try adding other nodes .. that seemed to help others already:

Code: [Select]

network_add_node "192.168.0.14:1776" add
network_add_node "78.46.32.25:1776" add
network_add_node "192.168.0.12:44327" add
network_add_node "70.114.143.108:1776" add
network_add_node "106.187.91.24:38581" add
network_add_node "106.185.26.162:1981" add
network_add_node "188.138.107.159:1776" add
network_add_node "104.131.136.190:1776" add

network_add_node "198.199.103.79:1776" add

If you go into your p2p.log, do you see any messages that start off "fork permanently rejected" ? You might have to reindex first if those logs have been rotated out by now.
