[Ethereum] ETH wallet error

go-ethereumwallets

I want to download the ETH wallet and make light synchronization on my PC. I downloaded ethereum wallet, but after launch, the Checksum mismatch in downloaded node crashes! MD5: 308 … Please install the geth version 1.8.23 manually

Best Answer

This is what worked for me. You have to download the Geth version 1.8.23 from here then you have to go to C:\Users\$YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\EthereumWallet\binaries\Geth\unpacked, If you don't have a folder named unpacked then create. Paste the downloaded Geth.exe in this folder and launch ethereum wallet.

geth won't blow up your laptop it will only fill up your hard drive if you sync it with the full blockchain. the light mode wich is available since v1.5.2 helps you to synch with blockchain without downloading it, you get only the current state so it reduce the size needed.

to use the light mode, download geth and run it using the option light

geth --light

if you want to test your contract setup a private chain or connect to the testnet.

Yeah for some reason the Ethereum Wallet doesn't remove the mismatched geth.exe file it has.

Download the latest geth archive file (.zip file) from here (as of writing it's 1.8.2) and then go to "%APPDATA%\Ethereum Wallet\binaries\Geth\unpacked" and delete the geth.exe file there, replace it with the latest geth.exe that you extract from the downloaded zip file.
