To close this loop, I downgraded the wallet to 0.9.3 and reloaded the block chain. My coins were recovered although the unconfirmed transaction remains. I can live with that. I retried the transaction with the older wallet and it worked fine.

Thanks. Now here is my problem and why I needed the block explorer in the first place.

I sent some FTC to my Cryptsy account a few days ago. The transaction never confirmed. I contacted Cryptsy and they did not see the transaction on their side. The transaction ID is not found in the block explorer. I have no idea now what happened to my FTC but my wallet was debited the amount of the transaction. For the record, I was using wallet version 0.9.5 at the time I created the transaction.

The people at Cryptsy suggested I reload the block chain for my wallet which I am doing now. For some reason this is a very slow process for Feathercoin compared to other coins I have worked with. Its even slower than Bitcoin which is notoriously slow.

I am hoping reloading the chain restores my coins but I am not optimistic. If anyone has any other suggestions I would appreciate the thoughts.

btw, I have done other transfers of coins to my Cryptsy account and they worked fine. This is the first time I have had a problem.

The link to the FTC block explorer on the FTC website is not working for me. I get an error “This webpage is not available”.

What is the correct link to the FTC block explorer.

Thanks.

Please disregard my previous question about the Wallet API. I figured it out and I got it working.

Is the wallet API enabled? In other words, does the wallet support HTTP GET/PUT requests for things like “getbalance”, etc.? If so, is there documentation available?

Thanks.

Thanks for the response.

It was the firewall. After configuring the firewall for feathercoin-qt.exe solo mining works. I could not recall if the prompt to open the firewall came up when I started the program but I guess not.

btw, 192.168.1.* does work in the .conf file. * is a wildcard for any IP address.

Thanks again. This was an oversight on my part.

I am new to feathercoin so forgive my persistence. Has anyone come up with an answer as to why solo mining does not seem to work for some people? I can solo mine other coins but not feathercoin.

feathercoin.conf:

server=1

daemon=1

rpcuser=featherrpc

rpcpassword=x

rpcport=9337

rpcallowip=192.168.1.*

sgminer conf:

{

“pools” : [

{

“url” : "http://192.168.1.15:9337",

“user” : “featherrpc”,

“pass” : “x”

}

]

,

“intensity” : “13”,

“kernel” : “neoscrypt”,

“worksize” : “64”,

blah, blah, blah…

when I start sgminer (I have tried 5.0, 5.1 and 5.1.1) I get a message:

192.168.1.15 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid

…and all the rest.

I start the wallet (versions 0.8.7.1 and 0.9.3) with the -server option but its as if the wallet is not listening or allowing connections from miners.

I can pool mine, but I like to have solo as a backup in case the pool fails.

What am I - and apparently others - missing?

Thanks.

I am having the exact same problem. I can pool mine without any issues but solo mining does not work and I have tried every .conf suggestion in these forums.

New to neoscrypt FTC, but a vet of many other coins.
