Hello.  I started the heatledger bat file.  How can I know it is running and do I have to have any tokens for it to start forging?  Also, I can't tell if my wallet is operating properly as under the exchange tab, I have no control to any buttons such as sell or buy, ect.  Is there a guide on what to do exactly and what options does one have?  Can you please guide me in the right direction?  This is my first time trying to get some coins on any startup.  Thank you in advance.

Forging is a bit technical with the current release.

Here is a quote from the bitcointalk thread on how to do it.

We're working to deploy downloadable client + server package with graphical forging UI on github before the forging rewards start paying on block 4320.

Meanwhile another, still technical way to set up forging:

Get JDK SE from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
(Click accept license agreement radiobutton first)

Download and unzip https://github.com/Heat-Ledger-Ltd/heatledger/releases

Define your own apikey, can be whatever string of characters, in conf/heat-default.properties

Start heatledger (Linux) or heatledger.bat (Windows)

run from command line the following after first making applicable changes to it:

Code:

Code: [Select]

curl -k -s http://localhost:7733/api/v1/mining/start/this%20is%20your%20secret%20phrase\?api_key=defined_in_heat-default.properties
If you don't have curl, download from the curl site

I downloaded jdk 8 and ran the bat file.  How do I setup the apikeys and where do I put them?  I quote "Define your own apikey, can be whatever string of characters, in conf/heat-default.properties"  Any help by the numbers or an example would be gladly appreciated.  Thank you.

Also, this is what my wallet looks like.  Does anything look out of place or is this normal?  ie.  nothing is accessible such as input boxes for amounts, buy or sell buttons don't work, ect.    https://pix.sfly.com/fJCbvJ

Open the conf folder included in the Heat server release.
Find the in heat-default.properties file and open it in a text editor.
Line #44 is

Code: [Select]

heat.apiKey=
I am pretty sure thats what they are refering to.
Add a key so it looks something like

Code: [Select]

heat.apiKey=SomeRandomKey and save the file.

You should then edit the curl code to match your secret phrase and API key and you should be good to go.

They did say the asset exchange is still being finished. I dont think the UI for it is working ATM.

Thank you.  I'll give it a try.  Hopefully I won't lock up my machina.  Will eventually post results.
