Furthermore several work-arounds have been collected in the Mist-Troubleshooting-Guide.

If possible add the following to your report:


have loaded and run wallet 8.0.7 (the newest one) as it was with previous versions too and can not sync my node, after some experiences with ethereum, especially with posibility of node sync as followed with incaility of use my ethers I think that all that the whole ethreum project is a fraud, i'm not a specialist in software, however i am using the newest recommneded version of the ethereum mist and wallet sofware, my question is if any of the etheum gurus has encountered such problems, i think that it is not their problem, they can exchange their ethers with no limits

@mxclene your node does not seem to be fully synced. Please open the developer console via CTRL/CMD+ALT+i and post the output of following commands:

web3.admin.nodeInfo.name
web3.eth.accounts.length
web3.eth.blockNumber
web3.eth.getBlock(2463001).hash
web3.eth.syncing

Pinging @karalabe @fjl, how is it possible that the web3.eth.blockNumber != web3.eth.syncing.currentBlock?

mxclene commented 7 years ago

i've started using the parity, and after ca. 2 days my mist/wallet are synchronized

mxclene commented 7 years ago

however, there is another problem (as described in issue #1365), both wallet and mist do not allow to add account, they require to create a new account

web3.eth.blockNumber returns last synced block number, at present 2642399

mist/ethereum wallet 0.8.7 Windows 7 node synchronized with parity (parity.exe --geth) bw Chris (mxclene)

@mxclene until Mist gets its own account management, you can simply copy the keyfile into the client's keystore folder:

mxclene commented 7 years ago
