This breaks forward compatibility of old clients. You can downgrade your wallet though with "db5.1_dump wallet.dat.old | db4.8_load wallet.dat"

Mac OS X Build Instructions and Notes
|
|
====================================
|
|
This guide will show you how to build dogecoind(headless client) for OSX.
|
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* Tested on OS X 10.6 through 10.9 on 64-bit Intel processors only.
|
|
Older OSX releases or 32-bit processors are no longer supported.
|
|
|
|
* All of the commands should be executed in a Terminal application. The
|
|
built-in one is located in `/Applications/Utilities`.
|
|
|
|
Preparation
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
You need to install XCode with all the options checked so that the compiler
|
|
and everything is available in /usr not just /Developer. XCode should be
|
|
available on your OS X installation media, but if not, you can get the
|
|
current version from https://developer.apple.com/xcode/. If you install
|
|
Xcode 4.3 or later, you'll need to install its command line tools. This can
|
|
be done in `Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Components` and generally must
|
|
be re-done or updated every time Xcode is updated.
|
|
|
|
There's an assumption that you already have `git` installed, as well. If
|
|
not, it's the path of least resistance to install [Github for Mac](https://mac.github.com/)
|
|
(OS X 10.7+) or
|
|
[Git for OS X](https://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/). It is also
|
|
available via Homebrew or MacPorts.
|
|
|
|
You will also need to install [Homebrew](http://brew.sh)
|
|
or [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org/) in order to install library
|
|
dependencies. It's largely a religious decision which to choose, but, as of
|
|
December 2012, MacPorts is a little easier because you can just install the
|
|
dependencies immediately - no other work required. If you're unsure, read
|
|
the instructions through first in order to assess what you want to do.
|
|
Homebrew is a little more popular among those newer to OS X.
|
|
|
|
The installation of the actual dependencies is covered in the Instructions
|
|
sections below.
|
|
|
|
Instructions: MacPorts
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
### Install dependencies
|
|
|
|
Installing the dependencies using MacPorts is very straightforward.
|
|
|
|
sudo port install boost db51@+no_java openssl miniupnpc autoconf pkgconfig automake
|
|
|
|
Optional: install Qt4
|
|
|
|
sudo port install qt4-mac qrencode protobuf-cpp
|
|
|
|
### Building `dogecoind`
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the github tree to get the source code and go into the directory.
|
|
|
|
git clone git@github.com:dogecoin/dogecoin.git dogecoin
|
|
cd dogecoin
|
|
|
|
2. Build dogecoind (and Dogecoin-Qt, if configured):
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
3. It is a good idea to build and run the unit tests, too:
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
Instructions: Homebrew
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
#### Install dependencies using Homebrew
|
|
|
|
brew install autoconf automake berkeley-db5 boost miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf qt
|
|
|
|
Note: After you have installed the dependencies, you should check that the Homebrew installed version of OpenSSL is the one available for compilation. You can check this by typing
|
|
|
|
openssl version
|
|
|
|
into Terminal. You should see OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014.
|
|
|
|
If not, you can ensure that the Homebrew OpenSSL is correctly linked by running
|
|
|
|
brew link openssl --force
|
|
|
|
Rerunning "openssl version" should now return the correct version.
|
|
|
|
### Building `dogecoind`
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the github tree to get the source code and go into the directory.
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin.git
|
|
cd dogecoin
|
|
|
|
2. Build dogecoind:
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
3. It is a good idea to build and run the unit tests, too:
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
Creating a release build
|
|
------------------------
|
|
You can ignore this section if you are building `dogecoind` for your own use.
|
|
|
|
dogecoind/dogecoin-cli binaries are not included in the Dogecoin-Qt.app bundle.
|
|
|
|
If you are building `dogecoind` or `Dogecoin-Qt` for others, your build machine should be set up
|
|
as follows for maximum compatibility:
|
|
|
|
All dependencies should be compiled with these flags:
|
|
|
|
-mmacosx-version-min=10.6
|
|
-arch x86_64
|
|
-isysroot $(xcode-select --print-path)/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk
|
|
|
|
For MacPorts, that means editing your macports.conf and setting
|
|
`macosx_deployment_target` and `build_arch`:
|
|
|
|
macosx_deployment_target=10.6
|
|
build_arch=x86_64
|
|
|
|
... and then uninstalling and re-installing, or simply rebuilding, all ports.
|
|
|
|
As of December 2012, the `boost` port does not obey `macosx_deployment_target`.
|
|
Download `http://gavinandresen-bitcoin.s3.amazonaws.com/boost_macports_fix.zip`
|
|
for a fix.
|
|
|
|
Once dependencies are compiled, see release-process.md for how the Dogecoin-Qt.app
|
|
bundle is packaged and signed to create the .dmg disk image that is distributed.
|
|
|
|
Running
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
It's now available at `./dogecoind`, provided that you are still in the `src`
|
|
directory. We have to first create the RPC configuration file, though.
|
|
|
|
Run `./dogecoind` to get the filename where it should be put, or just try these
|
|
commands:
|
|
|
|
echo -e "rpcuser=dogecoinrpc\nrpcpassword=$(xxd -l 16 -p /dev/urandom)" > "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Dogecoin/dogecoin.conf"
|
|
chmod 600 "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Dogecoin/dogecoin.conf"
|
|
|
|
When next you run it, it will start downloading the blockchain, but it won't
|
|
output anything while it's doing this. This process may take several hours;
|
|
you can monitor its process by looking at the debug.log file, like this:
|
|
|
|
tail -f $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Dogecoin/debug.log
|
|
|
|
Other commands:
|
|
|
|
./dogecoind -daemon # to start the dogecoin daemon.
|
|
./dogecoin-cli --help # for a list of command-line options.
|
|
./dogecoin-cli help # When the daemon is running, to get a list of RPC commands
|
