How to make a genesis block of my altercoin?

Question

I create my new altercoin,but when I first run it,it already shows:"No block source available 5 week(s) behind". And I start anther computer in the LAN, they link succefully. I use the code of Datacoin.

static const uint256 hashGenesisBlockOfficial("f9f6d9a689f7a4093c71f397d8fe3fbef3a05cd6f919d51b4a9447aa22743dfb");
static const uint256 hashGenesisBlockTestNet("f9f6d9a689f7a4093c71f397d8fe3fbef3a05cd6f919d51b4a9447aa22743dfb");

  // Genesis block
        qDebug()<<"Genesis block";
        const char* pszStartTopic = "The Times 26/Dec/2013 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks";//https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=325735.0";
        CTransaction txNew;
        txNew.vin.resize(1);
        txNew.vout.resize(1);
        txNew.vin[0].scriptSig = CScript() << 0 << CBigNum(999) << vector<unsigned char>((const unsigned char*)pszStartTopic, (const unsigned char*)pszStartTopic + strlen(pszStartTopic));
        txNew.vout[0].nValue = COIN;
        txNew.vout[0].scriptPubKey = CScript();
        CBlock block;
        block.vtx.push_back(txNew);
        block.hashPrevBlock = 0;
        block.hashMerkleRoot = block.BuildMerkleTree();
        block.nTime    = 1387977869 ;//http://www.unixtimestamp.com/index.php
        block.nBits    = TargetFromInt(6);
        block.nNonce   = 49030125;
        block.bnPrimeChainMultiplier = (uint64) 5651310;

        if (fTestNet)
        {
            block.nTime    = 1387977869 ;
            block.nBits    = TargetFromInt(4);
            block.nNonce   = 46032;
            block.bnPrimeChainMultiplier = (uint64) 211890;
        }

        //// debug print
        uint256 hash = block.GetHash();
        printf("%s\n", hash.ToString().c_str());

        qDebug()<<"hash:"<<hash.ToString().c_str();
        printf("%s\n", hashGenesisBlock.ToString().c_str());
        qDebug()<<"hashGenesisBlock:"<<hashGenesisBlock.ToString().c_str();
        printf("%s\n", block.hashMerkleRoot.ToString().c_str());
         qDebug()<<"block.hashMerkleRoot:"<<block.hashMerkleRoot.ToString().c_str();
        assert(block.hashMerkleRoot == uint256("a0c44c1b6dd50fcaa2bc1c4d7f8ca406506caee88578d751fb3824b41bc34d84"));
        block.print();

        assert(hash == hashGenesisBlock);
        {
            CValidationState state;
            assert(block.CheckBlock(state, true, true));
            assert(CheckProofOfWork(block.GetHeaderHash(), block.nBits, block.bnPrimeChainMultiplier, block.nPrimeChainType, block.nPrimeChainLength));
        }

Failed at assert(CheckProofOfWork(block.GetHeaderHash(), block.nBits, block.bnPrimeChainMultiplier, block.nPrimeChainType, block.nPrimeChainLength));. And the debug.log says:

        CTxOut(error)
ERROR: CheckPrimeProofOfWork() : block header hash under limit
ERROR: CheckProofOfWork() : check failed for prime proof-of-work

Anything else can I change to make the genesis block work?

Answer 1

I think you can use this : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=225690.0 This is all you need to make your altcoin working ;)

According to this link, you need to launch your alt coin's software and see in debug.log which hash your software is waiting for.
