@paulezzz said in Hi guys. I have a big issue with my wallet receiving address!!!:
I am quit a noob with this but do you know what command comes after “rescan”? because I got a message from the prompt that says:
Method not found (code -32601)Rescan is not a wallet command, but a paramter for the start command.
use 'feathercoin-qt -rescan’ to trigger a rescan of the block chain.

I does not work with me

That is not what I meant.
When you start the wallet you need to add the parameter -rescan at the end of the command line.
If you use windows/mac and use the desktop icon to start, you need to right click on the icon then go to properties-> command line and add the ‘-rescan’ at the end there. This is the windows way, I hope it is the same way for MAC.As an alternative:
- locate the feathercoin-qt executable file
- open a command line window
- change into the directory, where the feathercoin-at executable resides
- enter ‘feathercoin-qt -rescan’
Then keep the wallet open until it is fully syncronized with the block chain again.
The -rescan is needed only once, so if you use the ‘icon version’ remove the -rescan once you are done.

command line and add the ‘-rescan’ at the end there. This is the windows way,
I did not reached the commandline. I have this window open but have no clue what to do. I cannot find the command line

1 make a short cut to Feathercoin-qt on your desktop
2 right-click and go to properties.
3 edit the "target " box and add -rescan on the end.
-
sorry there is no targetbox. I already have it on my desktop and when I rightclick and go to properties it looks like the above picture.
So I do not understand what you mean with edit the targetbox and add -rescan on the end.
-
@paulezzz in your screenshot above you have right-clicked the feathercoin-qt.exe file
What I asked you to do is make a shortcut to that file and put it on your desktop
if that was done correctly, you should see a shortcut tab like this screenshot
-
The user had a hard time locating the “Target” box. If other users have the same…see here:
-
:laughing: Yes indeed. But with great support finded out that the right solution was to simply do what the moderator says and not forget to run the program like me. When it runs it will rescan the blockchain and everything is fixed.
-
I chatted with @paulezzz as it was easier than posting here.
All sorted. The user was able to add the -rescan switch and rescan their datadir. Their coins showed in their wallet.
Solved.
