I'm stuck on block 40286. Doesn't sync and when I try to add priority nodes as advised in an earlier post, it just hangs. I'm not using the GUI wallet and I can't decide if my wallet is on a fork.

If your local DB already "forked" so to speak then adding the new nodes won't help with that. You'll need to delete the DB and start with a fresh sync.

I made a full DB download available that's current as of about 12 hours ago: Download Link

If you're using Windows, the data.mdb file is in ProgramData\dero\lmdb. Simply close your wallet and daemon, delete the data.mdb file in that folder, replace it with the data.mdb file from the download, and start the daemon again with the 6 priority nodes. Once it has synced you can start the wallet again.


Sorry to say that, but again seems that the network is quite synchronized except the priority nodes - all of them stuck on 40785 (official blockchain is 40793). May be they can't handle the large number of connections? The same happened with pool.dero.live.

They have around 40 - 50 connections each, total, in and out. Loads are averaging 0.05 across the 6 nodes, so it isn't a load problem.

cryptopool.space and the block explorer are off on a higher block than pool.dero.live, dero.tech, dero.miner.rocks, and the 6 nodes. The question being why.
