Thank you very much for your reports!feenix3k wrote:A few days ago I installed the new wallet on my windows system. As of yesterday I get a message saying to update my wallet and it does not sync up with the network.
Things work like a charm for me and seemingly a lot of other people, too, so please
help us solve this issue / potential bug:
Did you guys start from scratch or did you have a previous Namecoin version installed?
Do you happen to use a wallet with a lot of names / transactions in it?
I assume you are aware that the initial sync can easily take four hours or longer and depends on a lot of factors like the performance of your peers systems and their network connection. Did you let it run for a long time like that? How many bars does the connection quality icon in the lower right of the window show? (If you hover above it it will show you the number of connections).
What version of windows do you use?
Please post here or send me by pm the files debug.log and db.log from %appdata%/Namecoin (C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming on recent windows versions, "cd %appdata%" from the command line).
To solve the problem for you:
Retry downloading from start: Shut down the Namecoin client, go to the %APPDATA% folder and rename the Namecoin folder. Then restart the Namecoin client and let it run for at least four hours or until it is up to date. You can then rename the wallet.dat file in the new folder and copy the wallet.dat file from the old folder to the new folder.
If you could keep a copy of the Namecoin folder that shows the error until we have this resolved it might be helpful.
