Can't Sync Ethereum Wallet 0.8.7 on Macbook Running OSX Sierra (going on 9 hrs now) #1387
Comments
@cjremus sorry for the inconvenience right now. Many people are currently unable to sync and many nodes are in bad shape. EIP 158 - which might implemented in two weeks - will resolve these issues. The only "workaround" yet is to use a SSD. I did a fully resync today on my Macbook Pro (SSD) in under 3h (perhaps even faster as I've been AFK). Please upload your |
I have the same issue and I am using a 2013 imac with slightly better specs. I am using a hard drive and not an SSD. I have not been able to completely sync for several weeks now. I have been letting my computer run for several days now starting with deleting chain data and I am on block 2,306,170. Should I try to add an external SSD? |
@Stigermann I'm not sure if the interfaces are fast enough (latency-wise). You could also try to play with parity's new warp-sync (haven't tried it myself) until the state cleaning HF is done. |
Is there any update on this? Same issue here. |
@1ranger only these advices: #1397 (comment) |
@luclu That was no help. I'm stuck on a single block for the last 12 days. I updated to the latest version. I'm on El Capitan. |
+1 I also cannot sync |
here same too. I waited patiently for more than 4 weeks now. My node is in bad shape. |
I have been trying to sync again with Parity and I am stuck on 2,642,498 best block. I can't find enough peers to sync. It seems like ethereum won't sync unless you have a late model computer with an ssd. |
Could you please try this and give me heads up on the outcome?
|
It worked for me within a few hours, thank you! |
Thank you @wllmkn |
Changing the NTP Server in TimeSettings from
to
did the trick for me. ( I had the problem that sync won't even start, keeps looking for peers and Remaining Blocks stayd 0) |

System information
Hi Everyone,
This is my first issue posting on Github, so bear with me if I don't get it right the first time!
I've been unable to sync my Ethereum Wallet v0.8.7 on my Macbook running OSX Sierra, for weeks now, on the production network. Today I left my Macbook running, as I was out doing other things, for a full 9 hours and the Wallet still hasn't synchronized.
I tried 0.8.6, then upgraded to 0.8.7. I've deleted the /chaininfo folder a couple times. No matter what I do, I can't seem to sync.
Please help, thanks!
Chris
P.S. - The screen shots are taken after trying to sync for over 9 hours.
Please check the already existing issues to keep duplicates at a minimum.
Furthermore several work-arounds have been collected in the Mist-Troubleshooting-Guide.
