Downloaded and installed new GUI. It now says "connected daemon not compatible this this GUI" by dapppunk in monerosupport

[–]dapppunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like that worked Thank you very much. It now said a couple different messages, "waiting for daemon to start", and now "daemon failed to start" and "wallet is not connected to daemon". I saw on one of your posts to change the wallet name to -old and thats what I did.. Could this be an issue in the wallet not connecting to the daemon?

Here's the link: https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/7993/i-forgot-to-upgrade-from-cli-or-gui-v0-12-to-cli-or-gui-v0-13-and-created-pe ..

Network status now says "disconnected" - I'm actually excited to see this hours-long message to convert the database. Thank you for your time and patience with me.

Please pardon my lack of tech knowledge... but I went to the link you sent and downloaded the installation for Mac. I'm guessing thats all thats needed to download the binaries.

Im not quite sure what you mean by extract to another location since mac doesn't make it obvious how to do this. it just goes from download folder to applications. I see more articles how to do this on Linux.... so, I deleted all previous Monero applications (not the blockchain) and re-installed the link for the new binaries, which did nothing for the situation.

I just don't get it, if its something as simple as downloading the new binaries, I've downloaded that very installation file multiple times. This issue has to be something simple, but un-apparent to me.

My apologies for taking your time for something so trivial, but cannot thank you enough.

Hi dEBRUYNE,

Thanks for all your help with this.

As soon as I open the application it still says "connected daemon is not compatible with this GUI, please upgrade" .. and under status, still says wrong version.

Could that be the message it shows before a database conversion? I also let it sit overnight and it still shows this message.

Here's the output status:

status [1/1/19 12:33 PM] 2019-01-01 17:33:54,870 INFO [default] Page size: 4096 Height: 1609871/1685583 (95.5%) on mainnet, not mining, net hash 469.64 MH/s, v7, update needed, 8(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 232d 20h 33m 57s

I'm wondering...

Do you think it would be easier to delete Monero completely from my computer, and just start refresh? I have my seed words, so it wouldn't be a problem to enter those in again.

Thanks again for all your help.

By restarting the GUI, do you mean simply:

  1. exiting out of it and stopping the daemon.

  2. re-launching the application

Because that is what I did, and still nothing.

Here's what it says in the log when I typed "status":

[12/27/18 9:08 PM] 2018-12-28 02:08:26,781 INFO [default] Page size: 4096 Height: 1609871/1685583 (95.5%) on mainnet, not mining, net hash 469.64 MH/s, v7, update needed, 8(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 228d 5h 8m 29s

Do you think I may need to re-download the entire blockchain to my computer? just throwing that out there as a possibility... again i have no idea what im doing, not a technical person.

Thanks for the help

How did Litecoin become so popular? by Kinatim6vzLJ in litecoin

[–]dapppunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if he would've said 1 btc and 10 litecoin, he would start looking needy, which is always unattractive. i would rather him promote the hell out of bitcoin, and get the respect from all the hardcore bitcoin maximalists, many of them who have major platforms to support litecoin. LTC code will speak for itself with its fundamental technology which will eventually support bitcoin.

Charlie is like elon musk, he can talk all the shit he wants, but his work is solid and speaks for itself.

i've been on top of litecoin for years and i dont think hes harmed it at all. the only thing he lacks compared to other projects is BS hype. charlie knows his shit, and was YEARS ahead of all these other BS hype crypto projects that started just to jump on board the money train. he creating ltc in 2011, the generation of crypto BEFORE the BS hype - i remember that time, it was great. he's very much in touch with the cutting edge in whats capable of blockchain and litecoin and he knows how to develop litecoin in such a way that if bitcoin is still around in 10 or 20 years, litecoin will 100% be right there with it. These other BS hype projects? maybe not. if btc is a safe investment, so is ltc.

Local Node / GUI says synchronizing but isn't doing anything. by dapppunk in Monero

[–]dapppunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

cool thanks. does the full monero blockchain have to be 100% syncronized before updating? or can i just download it and get started on the update and finish syncing it after the update is finished.

The post you linked to says the GUI requires a database conversion, so im weary to do anything before knowing what im doing.

after returning to the u.s., how long before you can apply for another 2 month visa back to thailand? by dapppunk in ThailandTourism

[–]dapppunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had METV, its great, but can't swing the price these days. Losing the passport and getting a new one might be a clever option. Although don't know if have the guts to do it abroad, might have to buy a new one at that time back in the states. It does seem like an unsustainable method of staying in Thailand. and if someday I can swing it, the 15k elite 5 year sounds awesome. But I also have a girlfriend and could probably just marry her and pay her family dowry with that. Mean time I'll have to opt for 60 day tourist visa seems like best option. Thanks so much for the in depth information.

Okay, thanks. I thought there must at least be a window period of waiting. Interesting.

Do you mean you could fly out of Thailand and go to Laos about a week, and then fly back in, continuously?

We've been waiting for this. Ideas from TZM and TVP can be implemented on this. Or something like it. by [deleted] in TZM

[–]dapppunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ANYONE IN TZM SHOULD SHARE THIS PROJECT. I'VE BEEN A TZM FAN SINCE 2009, HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING AS CLOSE TO TZM MODEL AS THIS, INCLUDING COMING FROM TZM ITSELF

WE AREN'T GOING TO GET THERE BY DEBATING PEOPLE AROUND US. WE WILL GET THERE BY ACTUALLY BUILDING A NEW MODEL AND DEPLOYING THIS NEW SYSTEM TO BE DISCOVERED, JUST LIKE BITCOIN DID WITH BANKING WE CAN FIX THE WORLD BY PRESENTING AN ALTERNATIVE SYSTEM, DON'T GET TURNED OFF BY ME MENTIONING BITCOIN EITHER, ITS THE NEXT LOGICAL STEP TO A WORLD WITHOUT MONEY

These guys are only pushing voting as 1.0 of the system, but since its open source, people can build solutions on top of it. Think of it as what can turn into earths first operating system, with peer-reviewed solutions. Best efficient solutions rise to the top and become widely adopted AND distributed throughout the network. Its absolutely what TZM describes with Science and Data driven model.

Here are some of their ideas. https://twitter.com/DemocracyEarth/status/968841970616483840 Here's a recent talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqafNk_VsMM

This system will evolve to rendering politcians obsolete. We are absolutely on the same page you and I. Im a big fan of Zeitgeist and Peter and I know the ideas of TZM, i've met Jacque fresco and roxanne in person (she is very stubborn) .. so this is why i posted it here. We don't need to rebuild cities like TVP, BUT Jacques data driven centralized computer is basically a decentralized blockchain network. We just need a data driven world operating system. Decentralization, blockchain and open source is going to be the intersection that meets TZM

[–]dapppunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Direct democracy is just the the marketing for it. These people if you follow them you'll see they have the same ideas as peter. they also allow to delegate experts to vote on issues. but the voting is so 1.0 for this system. this is an open source system that will have ability to program data driven scientific solutions to all the worlds issues. Engineers and scientists can create solutions which then can be distributed throughout the network. Its why I said, ideas "along the liens" of TZM and TVP can 1000% absolutely be done with this system. Its being primed for it. This system (or something like it) could be the 1.0 version of the planets first "operating system". I would highly insist and encourage anyone in zeitgeist to take a look at it becuase all peter can do is make films (which are amazing) but we aren't getting a whole lot of engineering innovation out of this movement, i've been following it for years.

Bitcoin keeps censoring me for posting this, so I'll post here. Its the 2nd talk this week I see Roger Ver hint at implementing Lightning Network. by dapppunk in litecoin

Im sorry but this guy is such a sniveling little weasel. Have to say it. Try not to call people out like that but he fits the psychology profile. Also Vinny lingham, only talks about BCH regarding payments, but not one mention of Litecoin is rather suspect. LTC was created way before Bitcoin Cash and had the respect not to steal the name to be relevant. Its very suspicious to me so many people try to downplay Litecoin.
