Can't sync since upgrading to 1.16

[mauibilly]

Small time farmer with limited technology skills. I upgraded to V 1.16 on May 21. Haven't been able to synch since. I can log into my wallet, but that's it.

Running Mojave 10.14.16 Have tried multiple restarts and disconnects...

Any suggestions?

[tiny0little]

validate inbound tcp8444
add introducers and node.chia.net
info on both here - Resolving-Sync-Issues---Port-8444

if above does not help, please post outputs of chia version, chia show -c and chia show -s

USE cmd line, use linux only

First 'chia start node', once that is done, then start the wallet sync ( chia show -s ) will dump sync status

Once the blockchain is synced, then run 'chia start wallet', this will also take a day, the above may take 2-3 days.
To check wallet sync status the cmd is 'chia wallet show'

to get into cmd-line mode its ". ./activate" from the chia-blockchain folder

Now your done, you can run the GUI, but its crap.

Nobody needs to run this crappy software to earn XCH, just run the plotter 'chia plots create ..', make plots, and mine them on HPOOL and earn XCH, bad news is its now 800 plots to get 1 XCH in a month. Unless you have a super-computer to plot, and have 100TB of disk, and 1/2 dozen NVME drives to sacrifice, your wasting your time.

...

You can add the 'introducers' by cmd-line 'chia add', but its far better to edit the config.yaml (Chia file in ~/.chia/mainnet/config) and learn to do stuff your self, other wise you will be dependent upon the morons (chia-net-dev) forever.

Ha ha. Thanks. I've earned a few Chia. I was relatively early even with my crappy little farm. I'll give both of these suggestions a shot tomorrow. My wallet is synching fine. I just can't connect to mainnet and haven't been able to since 5/20. Cheers.
