Bitcoin Core

[DrDave517]

I am running two bitcoin core nodes.

Neither one is working. I am getting "no block source available." And this, after many hours of synchronizing. I went to the forums and tried the solutions. Nothing is working.

This leads me to believe that the core software is deeply flawed. Do you have a solution?

Is your outbound port 8333 blocked?

Please upload your debug.log.

You can find it in your data dir.

BTW, I started with a default port, I think it was 9050. But on further reading I switched it to 8333. After the freeze up, I went to 9150, 9050, 8333, restarting the core each time. Same result.

What have you configured as proxy?

BTW this is the wrong venue for support questions, this issue tracker is for reporting site issues.
Next time please use the bitcoin stack exchange: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/

What have you configured as proxy?

Yes, it is probably caused by proxy.
