Upgrading Windows/Mac
The easy way, longer way:
- Take a backup of your wallet!!!!
- Shut down your client.
- Download and run the installer.
- Start the new client.
- Its downloading the full blockchain, Mine syncs in about 5-8 hours.
The faster way:
- Take a backup of your wallet!!!!
- Download the bootstrap file:
- Download the installer:
- Unzip bootstrap.dat to your data directory. This is the folder that contains wallet.dat.
- Windows default: '%APPDATA%\Roaming\Sexcoin'
- Mac Default : 'Users\<you>\Application Support\Sexcoin'
- Run the installer.
- Start the client. It will pick up the presence of the bootstrap file and start importing blocks from it. This takes about 2-3 hours in my environment.
If you really want to sync fast, view the README for the bootstrap project.
Linux Users:
At the moment, you need to build the Sexcoin client yourself.
git clone https://github.com/sexcoin-project/sexcoin
Ubuntu 12.04 & 14.04
Building on these versions is nearly painless. Use the /depends build methods and get QT5 GUI versions up and going with no problems.
View the README's in the /depends directory for instructions.
Ubuntu 16 & 17
"Ubuntu 17 Xenity instructions"
I will post some more complete linux notes shortly.
