Is anyone else having an issue with sending or receiving xmr I made a transfer about a week ago and for some reason the transactions have still not been confirmed and when I try to make a transaction I get an error that says “block explorer is currently unavailable “ at first I just figured it was just taking a little longer than usual but it’s been over a week now and I’m getting a little worried

Before the transactions were showing in my history and it was showing in my balance but it wouldn’t let me make any transaction and gave me the “block explorer is currently unavailable” message I tried backing up my wallet to see if that helped but now the transactions don’t show at all and my balance is back down anybody have any idea what might be happening?

Every time I am trying to purchase LTC on cake wallet it says ‘It is impossible to finish transaction. Please try later.’ How can I fix this?

Which app? And what do I need to do? Can I convert from btc or something?

Same as top. I want to use haveno and I need to add money to the app to exchange for xmr. What do I do

I am trying to purchase LTC with Apple Pay on Cake Wallet and whenever I press purchase it says, "It is impossible to finish transaction. Try again later." What do I do?

I’ve downloaded the Monero blockchain from the website and I also have the monero wallet but I can’t seem to figure out how to take the block chain file and import it into the monero wallet (I’m new to Linux and that’s the operating system I’m using)

Says file could not be saved because I don’t have the proper permissions. Choose another save directory. But I was told to use Linux 64 bit.

Please help, im trying to send monero but it wont go through. I flushed and its still stuck.

The Error says "The Wallet must be imported first"

I've followed this guide

https://docs.getmonero.org/running-node/monerod-tori2p/#node-configuration

and my /etc/i2pd/tunnels.conf.d/monero-mainnet.conf file looks like this:

[monero-node]
type = server
host = 127.0.0.1
# Anonymous inbound port
port = 18085
inport = 0
keys = monero-mainnet.dat

[monero-rpc]
type = server
host = 127.0.0.1
# Restricted RPC port
port = 18089
keys = monero-mainnet.dat

but the command in step 5 "curl -s http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels | grep -Eo "[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" | grep "18085"` returns nothing, and shortening it to "curl -s http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p\_tunnels" shows the monero-node line ending in b32.ip2:0, so it's assigned to port 0 rather than 18085. The monero-rpc line correctly shows it as assigned to port 18089.

How can I fix this?

Hi,

I installed Monero Gui on my desktop in advanced mode. I connected to a remote node but the wallet is not synching. I did a 0.1 XMR transaction to test it and the balance stays at 0. I wait one night to sync it but nothing changed. *

Dameon is synchronized.

Anyone could help? Here is a screenshot of Monero GUI: https://ibb.co/jR8dPBd

Link to transaction : https://xmrchain.net/tx/48b52ec23d4be442bf6eb67a983d0762a1e5b8450bbbd76bd3b187ae2343e46d

Thank !

I am planning to buy BTC on StealthEX and exchange it for XMR. I would use Monero GUI Wallet to store XMR.

My concern is - is my wallet address and transaction public to StealthEX and can this platform disclose my data to any party If needed?

Thank you!

For a whole month my RPi 5 and a Hiksemi T300S external ssd served me as a 24/7 monero node but the ssd always ran very hot and after 1 month of running it was dead.

Now my plan is to have 2 nodes, one on my daily drive computer; which will be used while i do monero mining on the side (basically 12hours a day) on p2pool and will be used for the wallet i use on my computer.

Second node will run on my RPi 5 24/7 to support the decentralization of Monero nodes.

I need to know which types of storage serves each scenario best; i dont want to end up with dead storage.

I have a m.2 hat for my RPi 5 so i can get an M.2 Ssd. But i have concerns about ssd's running 24/7 since last one died in a month.

For my computer i have an empty 2TB seagate hdd that i plan to use but if it causes too many errors like corrupted lmdb i could potentially switch to a Sata ssd.

Like i said earlier, storage endurance is my priority.

Any help appreciated.

How can i switch from simple mode to advanced ?

TY

I want to download the Monero GUI desktop wallet to my new computer. OS is POP OS - I am new to Linux. Previous computer had Monero wallet set up - no issues.

I am currently getting the error: Couldn’t open wallet: internal error: “/run/user/1000/doc/cf0df1fe/abcdef.keys” is opened by another wallet program.

But no other program is using it.

Here's what happened:

1. I downloaded the .tar.bz2 file from the monero website, verified signature (did all the things), plugged in my cold wallet (because my previous Monero wallet was linked to it), chose advanced mode and created wallet from my keys file. Everything was working perfect and the wallet was loading. Then a day in and half way through I lost internet connection. I tried the process again, but it wouldn't work - the daemon wouldn't connect and I had no idea how to check the daemon log and have no idea what daemon is honestly.

2. I deleted all the files I could find that were monero related (I am still not thinking like a linux person so I did this manually not with a terminal command) and then I decided to see if the pop os store had monero and it did.

3. I downloaded the desktop gui from the pop os store and did the same thing - chose advanced, created wallet from keys and it gave me the message above "could not open wallet because keys in use by another wallet program ..." Except I don't have another wallet open. So this time I did use the rm command to remove all monero related files thinking it would close out any use of this so called open wallet.

4. I tried to delete /run/user/1000/doc/cf0df1fe/abcdef.keys” but I didn't have permission and read that I should be careful changing permissions in these files so I didn't. After hours of looking I found this command and ran it

flatpak documents | xargs -n1 flatpak document-unexport --doc-id

this seemed to get rid of all those files.

5. Then I downloaded Monero GUI from Pop Store again and tried again and it stuck my keys file in that run/user/1000/doc/ folder but this time with a name other than cf0df1fe, but I got the same message.

(Not sure if it makes a difference but after everything was going perfectly and I was disconnected, my computer prompted me to update the firmware and I did. After that is when the wallet wouldn't pick up where it left off and so I deleted it manually.

Please help. I've spent days trying to figure this out as I usually eventually do but not knowing linux is making this very hard. Thanks in advance.

Ledger Nano S, Monero GUI wallet, Simple mode, deleted mdb file, ran monerod.exe as administrator. Even tried to create a new wallet from my Ledger seed (sorry I may have the terminology wrong), after re-installing GUI, AV kicked up a threat and I ignored it/restored the files.

I used this wallet a couple months ago.

Monerod keeps closing/won't stay open. Can't access my XMR! I think I am missing some firewall settings? If so, could I get some specific ELI5 instructions?

Thanks.

Hi,

I want to run a full node and hide my IP over Tor.

I don't want to use a VPN only Tor on a linux OS.

My linux skills are limited.

Thanks

litterlly what the tittle says.

I have a few questions I’d like to clarify, and I believe the answers could benefit other users as well:

1. If I install the Monero GUI wallet and download the entire blockchain, does this mean I am running my own node?
2. If someone sends me XMR to a wallet I created in the Monero GUI, how can I verify that the transaction is being processed by my own node and not another node on the blockchain?
3. When I create multiple wallets and transfer funds between them, does this necessarily mean the transaction is occurring between wallets on my own node, or could it involve other nodes?
4. If i've installed the Monero GUI on two different servers, and I want to ensure that transactions are being sent from the node on Server 1 directly to the node on Server 2, without any other nodes in between. How can I achieve this?

this is about the hardware to use,

1. will a 1080 ti work as a good graphics card?

2. what cpu should i get thats best for mining? (i have a Ryzen 5 2600)

And what’s the best way to get without KYC and nonsense fees?

I just wanna buy a VPN with XMR.

It seems to be difficult to obtain XMR? I want to use my Monero GUI Locally on my PC.

None of that Smart Phone apps like Kraken/Cake Wallet.

Is there maybe a site or a sub where an absolute noob who literally knows nothing about crypto, how it works, how to buy it, keep it secure, etc., etc could go? any suggestions appreciated TIA

What has your mileage been?

What would you recommend?

SSL is fine with localhost but away from that I have issues. Utilizing a domain. Searching for other alternatives.

I'm running monerod in a LXC container under Proxmox and I followed this guide to share my node via I2P,. It seems to be working, as the command at step 7 returns a bunch of output.

https://docs.getmonero.org/running-node/monerod-tori2p/#__tabbed_1_2

However, I'm not sure what I need to change to be able to access the node (running on 192.168.0.210) with the wallet on my PC (192.168.0.64), as it can't connect on that IP address anymore.

In the Wallet Setup section it says to put 127.0.0.1 and Port = 4447 under Settings -> Interface -> Socks5 proxy, but that obviously won't work as my wallet and node aren't on the same machine. I've tried using 192.168.0.210 for the Socks5 address and the remote node address but that doesn't work. I also tried using the http://yourlongb32i2paddress.b32.i2p for the remote node address as it suggests, but that didn't work either, although I guess that might be because I haven't port forwarded yet. Is there a reason why I can't just use the local address when the node and wallet are on the same LAN?

My monerod.conf looks like this:

data-dir=/mnt/monero/
log-file=/mnt/monero/monero.log
log-level=0
enable-dns-blocklist=1
out-peers=24
in-peers=48
limit-rate-up=20480     # 1048576 kB/s == 1GB/s; a raise from default 2048 kB/s; contribute more to p2p network
limit-rate-down=81920   # 1048576 kB/s == 1GB/s; a raise from default 8192 kB/s; allow for faster initial sync
rpc-restricted-bind-ip=192.168.0.210
rpc-restricted-bind-port=18089
anonymous-inbound=redacted.b32.i2p,127.0.0.1:18085
tx-proxy=i2p,127.0.0.1:4447,disable_noise

That guide doesn't mention port forwarding to make the node accessible, so do I just need to set my router to forward from port 18085 to port 18085 on 192.168.0.210?

I've just downloaded Daemon. The first time it might not have work as my antivirus flagged it and removed some parts of the program (That's what i believe at least) So i tried to put it back as normal and delete my anti virus. Everything seems to be work expect one thing. I keep getting the same error

Error: Couldn't connect to daemon: 127.0.0.1:18081 Am not sure what to do. All i think i know is it might be something with my OS or firewall. Am not sure and all the information i could find on this was either outdated or didn't help me alot. I have tried to reinstall it and nothing changed. Run it as administrator and no effect

I use WINDOWS 10 if that might help

Using GUI Wallet

I have tried "monerod --db-salvage" And tried to force redownload the chain. by renameing the lmdb to lmdb_old and then create a new folder called lmdb. But still getting the same error

I'm running monerod in a container under Proxmox, on 192.168.0.210 and I can ping that address from my PC at 192.168.0.64 but the GUI wallet on that PC can't connect to the node. When it starts, it says its bound to 127.0.0.1, so do I just need to change that to 192.168.0.210?

I tried adding 'rpc-bind-ip=192.168.0.210' to monerod.conf but when it starts it says:

2024-10-21 00:46:23.408 E --rpc-bind-ip permits inbound unencrypted external connections. Consider SSH tunnel or SSL proxy instead. Override with --confirm-external-bind

Should I just go ahead and add 'confirm-external-bind' to my conf?

quick question: im new to haveno and i see most of the buy offers are for cash by mail, im hesitant to go this route as i dont see what would stop them from just keeping the money once it arrives and not sending the XMR. Is there anyone with more experience that can enlighten me. (tried posting this on r/Monero but it got deleted by the mods)

I've been running a node on my main linux PC for a couple months now, but I recently got a used optiplex running OpenBSD so I thought I'd move it there. Compilation of the daemon went fine. I transferred my lmdb folder over my local network, so the blockchain only has 10 blocks remaining to sync. But when I attempt to run monerod, top tells me it's using 100% of three of my CPUs, slowing down the computer to an unusable crawl. Anyone else had this issue or know any fixes?

Edit: Adding the --db-sync-mode=fastestoption to the monerod command appeared to have reduced CPU load signifigantly, but now I'm dealing with large spikes in usage on single cores I assume whenever a new block needs to be verified.

When I first set up my monero wallet I was given an address of where to receive my monero below the mneumonic words. I went to an exchange and bought some monero and sent it there ...it was sent as far as the exchange said to the address monero told me to save originally but when I loaded my wallet there was no monero and the address to receive the monero was different. Like what the hell. I went to verify the address that monero had given me and it said it wasn't a wallet address later but the exchange said it was sent. Is there something I'm missing? Can I input the wallet address they originally gave me to access it or something? I should add I'm using the latest monero wallet gui on windows.
