Blocks found - zero balance (cmd newbie)

Post by kebumaha »

Sup. I tested this and my miners said couple blocks had been accepted. Now when e.g. doing "listreceivedbyaddress 0 true" I get "amount: 0.00000000". Does they show up only after 120 confirmations or huh? At least in bitcoin transactions show "immediately" with their confirmations count, but since I've never found a block I don't know if founding one is treated differently. Thanks in advance :)

The windows version of namecoin does not include the patch to see immature coins. I guess you use this one ?

Ok, that probably is it then. I was lazy and grabbed what I thought were latest the binaries from thread in bitcoin/forums (can't remember which), as I'm not very familiar compiling big software like this. Maybe I'll look on to that now. ;)

Edit: Oh, I read you wrong. Yes I use windows version. So it's not in it yet?

The last one i found for windows is on the wiki and does not include the patch. I'm waiting for a generous guy that compiles last windows versions :p

I suppose I have a similar situation. I started solo mining for namecoins last night with DiabloMiner. Everything seems to have worked fine on that end and this morning the miner notified me that it had found a block sometime overnight. However, I ran "./namecoind getinfo" only to see that I had zero balance. I am on Linux using this binary, dated May 17, 2011, from the wiki's main page.

I'll check the balance again after work and provide a status update.

This will never show the value of immature blocks as you can't spend the coins so it isn't reflected in the balance. You want 'listtransactions'. That will show 'immature' for immature blocks in the transaction and 'generated' for mature ones. To get 'listtransactions' working you need the latest client mentioned previously.
