blockchain wont download
-
everytime i get really close to downlading the blockchain it finshes then it says i dont have java installed but i do ahve the latest version installed and ive tried it twice now and it still doesnt work any advice because i dont want to have to download it again bease its takes days for me and i have been trying to mine for a week now but i cant get this thing downloaded and working?
-
@gmoney Try to get a copy of updated blockchain from db.burst-team.us, unzip contents into burst-db folder and start local wallet.
This should be way moer faster than downloading blockchain from scratch.
-
I cant find the folder for some reason i searched for it and its not there but do i need the blockchain to pol mine if not what is it used for?
-
now it says there is no disk in the drive in device/harddisk/dr1 i have no idea what its asking for?
-
oh.... I guess there is kind of a trick there. The folder the files are in is sometimes hidden. It's most likely found here - C:\Users\USERENAME\AppData\Roaming\ - with your computer's username for example. The blockchain files go in the \BurstWallet\burst_db folder

@gmoney the no disk issue was a common issue a few months back ....... somone had a fix for it posted here in the forums im not 100% sure but i want to say it was @Zeus that had it posted its been so long i cant remember for sure.
yes i think its the AppData folder that is default to be hidden you will need to change view setttings to see it

i found it it was Zeus https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/1673/how-to-solve-no-disk-in-drive-letter-aio-wallet

Wow thank you very much for being so helpful and im a little lost on what to do with the no disk thing i dont really get what the instructions are saying to do?
-
hold shift right click should have an option to open command window from there follow his instructions
-
or you can Click Start, click All Programs, and then click Accessories Right-click Command prompt, and then click Run as administrator. as im not sure if shift right click option gives it admin privliage
-
alright so then after that what do i type in there?
-
what does the no disk error say ? you will type the command like this mountvol S: /D just change the S to the letter of the drive that it says has no disk
-
its says Device/Harddisk/DR1 which one is that?
-
Finally got it by looking it up on youtube fixed it instantly now I am finally mining burst!
