Trouble with Sync #15

Closed ianrussel closed 6 years ago

ianrussel commented 6 years ago

Hi, I tried running below command

  mkdir datadir

Then

      ./bin/bitcoind -port=8444 -rpcport=8442 -datadir=./datadir -rpcuser=user  -rpcpassword=pass -rpcbind=0.0.0.0  -rpcallowip=44.33.22.11

After 30 minutes or so nothing happens, is it an error or what I am doing wrong? I check debug.log and shows this many lines, but no signs of error. I am on windows using ubuntu 16 in a virtualbox machine

It should be fine as long as datadir grows. Its downloading the blockchain. You can relaunch it in daemon mode so it runs in the background.

PS. Full sync might take from 12 hrs to several days.

I am closing this issue now, as @Overtorment comment very informative.
