The Gridcoin linux wallet has a fatal error that needs to be resolved before it can be fully implemented on AllCrypt.

AllCrypt uses RPC calls to communicate with the wallets. The function getblock, which takes a hash as a argument, and returns data about the block in question, is completely broken.

On the command line, some blocks return data - but the data seems like it could be wrong.

Other blocks return various errors:
gridcoind getblock 87940ec2e76b5981d1454ea53de8fa3c0fac4b1c683f72971a74ea8f78751046
error: {"code":-1,"message":"Block number out of range."}

However, I got that hash with:
gridcoind getblockhash 74001
87940ec2e76b5981d1454ea53de8fa3c0fac4b1c683f72971a74ea8f78751046

Also:
gridcoind getblock b228595e0676536b5eed64ad079d8046ea7ed5cb27d94a2c24018b60ec945d59
error: Error parsing JSON:b228595e0676536b5eed64ad079d8046ea7ed5cb27d94a2c24018b60ec945d59

It's completely borked.

Also, when issuing the command line for:
gridcoind getblock 3acbe7fae017d900a0957038dce03c48b5d4458cabd79ad809a194fed9bf2154

It returns what APPEARS to be info for block 3?
{
   "hash" : "d39f406fc1e83823f0af3feccecf97439b8c418340fae92cb32de2a0b0d882f7",
   "confirmations" : 75296,
   "size" : 438,
   "height" : 3,
   "version" : 2,
   "merkleroot" : "8e192930415caa67236c9facd54d5cb64080d340dc2d9db7f06901044727cafc",
   "tx" : [
   "8e192930415caa67236c9facd54d5cb64080d340dc2d9db7f06901044727cafc"
   ],
   "time" : 1381979271,
   "nonce" : 73673216,

And when using the RPC call to check that same block, it errors out with: (I had to put spaces in the damn site keeps putting it in a code block)

Request error: A r r a y = > -1 [message] = > value is type str, expected int
Which is completely wrong because a block hash cannot be an INT.

The linux Gridcoin wallet is completely unusable as it stands on AllCrypt. If this coin is on another exchange - we have NO idea how they are doing it unless maybe their wallets are on windows? (What??)

Dear Allcrypt-

The problem is we have 3 commands for Gridcoin, getblock, getblockbyhash and getblockhash.

Getblockbyhash 178bca9db419ef349b040f92e960a7c05914949d4f7f5e6a7228266069f502cd returns the info your RPC is looking for, but our getblock 1 returns the information you are receiving.

What version of the wallet are you running, windows or Linux? I may be able to change the commands back to the way they are in bitcoin.

Grid

Linux. And if this is going to be on an exchange it absolutely has to have more than those three commands. Just off the top of my head we use: listtransactions, listtransactionssince, getinfo, getbalance, gettransaction, move, and god knows how many others.

In the future instead of completely changing how the wallet works, for it to actually be compatible with other software, ADD new commands - don't change the way standard commands work. We have 42 other wallets that all work according to that standard.

PM me once you have something worked out.

That's cool, just as an FYI, we ADDED a command to the already existing commands and renamed an existing command.

I will put the original commands back the way they were, but its not going to be tonight or tomorrow, so take it easy for a while and Ill let you know when its working.

Thanks!
