IMPORTANT - FORK!

There is fork happening in the EmerCoin network after block 136404.
Some clients do not receive correct block 136405, and continue staking.

Please, check your client. Run from console:

getcheckpoint

If it prints:
{
    "synccheckpoint" : "0000000000000006d2010d4a879378a448c4a12e156127d7a7753b93fccb676d",
    "height" : 136404,
    "timestamp" : "2015-11-29 17:17:16 UTC"
}

then your client has been affected by fork.

To resolve this issue, needed re-download blockchain again.
To do this:
1. stop emercoin program
2. Backup your wallet.dat (not necessary, but this is more safe)
3. Delete all files, but wallet.dat and emercoin.conf in the directory
windows: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\EmerCoin
linix: ./emercoin
4. Restart emercoin program. Wait for ~30 minutes to reload blockchain.

We're working for investigate this issue, and will release patch soon.

Thanks you for patience.



I will have to wait for a patch. Deleting files and redownloading block index has stuck.

I am still here..

downloading blockchain is stuck on 134081 and 163997  84.17% completed from last 40mins.

WARNING: Checkpoint is too old. Wait for blockchain to download, or notify developer of the issue.


I had this same issue with the quatloo wallet but left it and it sorted itself out over a couple of days
