Compiling Bitshares in Ubuntu

lack of genesis.json file causing dead loop rather throw exception in bts_server

Hey,
maybe you can help me out,

I built the wallet and server using your tutorial, the wallet works but the server is throwing this error (in red)

Code: [Select]

Any idea what I may be doing wrong here?
thanks

Too bad..
I pulled an update from git just now and re-built, but it's still giving the same error

[betax]

I am having the same problem with today's and yesterday build. Yesterday was working correctly ... so I guess some breaking changes are occurring now in the network.

There is no GUI yet. Check https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=1890.msg40688#msg40688 on an update on the GUI.

[cryptosig]

Is QT not required for the GUI?

Compiled versions

I will try to post a daily compiled drop here (until a better solution is available).

Note: You don't know me, so for all you know this can be infected with a virus, (it is not) but nevertheless common sense apply.

Have fun.

2014-02-27	https://www.dropbox.com/s/p0aggc29in3rucr/bts_wallet%202014-02-27.tar.gz
2014-02-28	https://www.dropbox.com/s/vytze9qfhtw5qsp/bts_wallet_2014-02-28.tar.gz
2014-03-03	Build broken: authorisation_status enum changes
2014-03-04	https://www.dropbox.com/s/u2qn33uv2v2hauq/bts_wallet_2014_03_04.tar.gz It includes now get_bts_balance

Note: If you have already compiled your own version and want to build the latest just, run this. It will delete the BitShares directory, clone the latest, run cmake and compile.

Code: [Select]


cd ~
rm -rf BitShares
git clone https://github.com/InvictusInnovations/BitShares.git
cd BitShares
git clone https://github.com/InvictusInnovations/fc.git

~/cmake-2.8.12.1/bin/cmake ~/BitShares

cd ~/BitShares
make

If you have a custom chain as supplied by HackFisher.. backit up first before you delete the BitShares the directory.

Hi,

Please find here some quick notes I have written on compiling BitShares in a fresh image of Ubuntu.

Code: [Select]

cd ~
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git libreadline-dev uuid-dev g++ libdb++-dev libdb-dev zip libssl-dev openssl build-essential python-dev autotools-dev libicu-dev build-essential libbz2-dev

Boost

Code: [Select]

cd ~
wget -O boost_1_54_0.tar.gz http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.54.0/boost_1_54_0.tar.gz/download
tar xzvf boost_1_54_0.tar.gz
cd boost_1_54_0/

# boost's bootsrap setup
./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/usr/local
   
# If we want MPI then we need to set the flag in the user-config.jam file
user_configFile=`find $PWD -name user-config.jam`
echo "using mpi ;" >> $user_configFile
   
# Find the maximum number of physical cores
n=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu cores" | uniq | awk '{print $NF}'`

    # Install boost in parallel
sudo ./b2 --with=all -j $n install
   
    # Reset the ldconfig, assumes you have /usr/local/lib setup already. check ROOT installation
    # blog I wrote if not. Else you can add it to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, running this anyway
    # will not hurt.
sudo ldconfig 

chmod +x install_boost.sh
./install_boost.sh

boost installation extracted from here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88131281/install_boost.sh

cmake-2.8.12.1

Code: [Select]

cd ~
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
tar xvf cmake-2.8.12.1.tar.gz
cd cmake-2.8.12.1
cmake . && make

Clone the code

Code: [Select]

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/InvictusInnovations/BitShares.git
cd BitShares
git clone https://github.com/InvictusInnovations/fc.git


Run cmake

Code: [Select]

~/cmake-2.8.12.1/bin/cmake ~/BitShares
Finally compile it

Code: [Select]

cd ~/BitShares
make

If everything is ok you should have your compiled versions here:

Code: [Select]

cd bts_wallet
 ./bts_server and ./bts_wallet
Genesis 28/2

Here is a link to the genesis.json posted by bytemaster

https://github.com/betaxx/BTSXBalance/blob/master/genesis.json?raw=true

Initialising Genesis by HackFisher:

For testing, I modified the code using original genesis address and generate the testing genesis chain, you can download it and unzip in the folder of bts_server if you need.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5037011/chain.zip

after you start and login bts wallet, you can import genesis key:
Code: [Select]

importkey d987064e501555cf3d2e4e68f093a94144bc876a85c520971b747af32fa6a4c3 rescan

you get 100 BTS to play.


Check your BTSX balances without using your wallet.dat
This a shameless plug for a tool I created .. check it out here if you want to confirm your BTSx balance.
