Feedback Public Testnet Evaluation

I'm running it on Windows 10 successfully following the wiki examples. Care to send over some funds? TsSkJ7wd5rdwNFBZ88dnXWbuvCoYizxqocc

 

perfect

 

I have just synched up to block ~1300 or so I will also try a transaction after I mine a block.

I think i got one

I'm not able to mine. I start CGMiner and get the following:

In dcrd.exe there is the folowing log:

First decred txid of the history?

 

Ok so i am thinking you are on windows and you need --notls flag set maybe I am wrong.

I got it working by using the --notls flag as listed in the wiki.

However, I believe with notls set then you cannot connect the wallet while you are mining.. Give it a shot and report back.

Also if anyone can confirm (or tell me i am not thinking straight) once notls is set you cannot synch wallet to dcrd

Finally, if you you want to send commands using dcrctl you must also use the --notls for queries e.g., getdifficulty

Edit: anyone else running cgminer and getting a lot of found block messages but not a lot of blocks actually found?

I am getting allot of these lines in decrwallet:

Code:

01:33:51 2016-01-28 [WRN] DCRW: Connection to Decred RPC chain server unsuccessf
ul -- available RPC methods will be limited

difficulty. Error: the client was never connected

Should I be worried or is this normal?

 

@SG-O I was JUST getting that too, but I'm almost certain I'd missed a step setting it all up somewhere. Feel the n00bness.

 

Hi, if I try to open Github, it says "No server is currently available to service your request."
Do you have the same issue or is it only me??

 

Github is down right now:

@githubstatus

@davecgh you were faster

 

Ok, thx guys...

 

hmmm I wonder why?

 

Github has been down for over an hour now, can anyone share their copy of downloaded testnet binary?
thanks

 

My only from this al.

 

I've been mining for a while now and several blocks got accepted, but my wallet balance hasn't changed at all. Is this normal?
