I don’t know if 0.9.6 will run on Snow Leopard 10.6 - So, will fire up a development version and see if I can get it to crash and see what might be the problem… I have run it on MacOS Sierra 10.12, and it is running just fine…
-
@petesch - Hello and Welcome :) !
Feathercoin version 0.9.6 was tested on OSX - MacOS version 10.9 - 10.12
Is it possible to see more of your crash log ?

I don’t know where else to look for the crash log. I tend to be more proficient on Windows and Linux. I can look for the crash log if that will help, but maybe I should just import the wallet.dat file into a Windows or Linux wallet – ? I don’t really need to keep this old MacBook running. It was just for emergencies.

Ah! If you’ve got the ability to switch i suggest you backup your wallet.dat file as well as get a copy of all the private keys for your wallet addresses and make the switch over to one of your other machines.
-
I should be able to locate the wallet.dat file, but do not know how to locate the private keys. Can you help with that?

Have a look at this
1 - go to your receiving addresses
2 - get to the debug console by going to Help - > Debug - > Console
3 - right click your receiving address and copy it
4 - in the console window you can type “dumpprivkey FeathercoinAddress” (without the quotes)
If you look at the example it will make sense…the example used the Windows 0.8 client on the testNet, but the process is the same or very similar…you’ll get it ;-)
Please remember, you need to do this for each one of your addresses.
You then need to save the output somewhere safe…I can’t advise on where and what “safe” is.
-
@petesch What you need to do is the following -
copy your “old” wallet.dat file to a location that you know is safe…
Setup the new feathercoin client, and launch it. So if you have a windows machine, or a newer mac or whatever. It will start syncing the entire blockchain. Depending on the speed of the network it might be a little bit. Let it sync all the way. Then when that is done, quit the client. Make sure it’s off. Locate the appdata folder for your feathercoin data. Rename the wallet.dat file here to - “empty_wallet.dat” so that you know it’s the empty wallet with private keys that don’t hold any value.
Then, copy your old wallet.dat file into this directory. Launch the updated client, and it should start the re-scan and show you your balance. If it still doesn’t show you any balance let us know.

Hey, what’s up?
I’m a novice trader and have recently started a crypto consulting business and want to start pushing FTC to my clients. Excited to see what’s in store and will contribute however I can!

Hello and welcome.

Hi there …

Hello!
I’ve never mined before, but I decided I was bored with my gaming rig and pointed it at a few p2pools.
I’ve solved a few blocks, and I’m just wondering, how long does it take to get a payout? (I started last night at about 2am)
-
Hi @wreylza and welcome.
P2pool is like solo mining, except split between a group. You just have to wait till a block is found, it depends on how many are mining p2pool against the total hash rate.
-
@wrapper thanks for the welcome!
That’s where I’m confused. My miner says I’ve actually found blocks, like, BLOCK! And accepted. I’m using nsgminer and getting 500+M/hs
-
@wreylza nevermind! I think I figured it out in the p2pool settings.
-
Hello! I have been a member of the the feathercoin forum for many years, but I must admit that I went awol for a while! I was pleased to see that you still have my email in you database!
I am slowly getting back into mining and hopefully some cool feather/crypto project! good luck to everyone!
P.S.
are we still meeting in Oxford (or anywhere else in in UK)??
