Java Client Version 0.3.18 - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/67242472/nxt.zip
NXT Files - included in above file

Of course you need to download and install Java on your computer first if it's not there.

Error Handling(If java is installed):
Quote
C:\nxtcoin\nxt>java -jar start.jar
'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Locate the java.exe and replace your batch file with the following(Include quotes):

"[JAVA_PATH]" -jar start.jar

1. Download nxt.zip (Link Above)


2. Unzip it!


3. Download nxtfiles.zip to redownload chain. (OPTIONAL - Link Above)
(DOWNLOAD THIS ONLY IF YOU ARE GETTING NEGATIVE BLOCKS)


4. Extract in nxt folder


5. Make a .bat file in the nxt folder


6. Type: java -jar start.jar and save the batch file


7. Run the batch file


8. Open http://localhost:7875  or http://localhost:7674for GUI.


Also ignore the certificate error.

To create & open your account click on the lock in the wb browser upper left.  Enter in a high security passphrase.  This MUST consist of a long string, at least 30 characters, of  random words mixed in with numbers that NEVER appear in any literary or commonly spoken vulgate.

As soon as you unlock an account that has any NXT in it, you are mining.  You can even close the browser down at that point.  But you may want to keep it up to observe the health of the client - its still a little buggy and requires restart occasionally, when blocks stop gettin added in the client.

You can check the status of your account balance as well as get stats on the most recent block, and other good stats from the blockexplorer here: http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=10


Security Tips

- Reiteration: Enter in a high security passphrase.  Your Nxt WILL EVENTUALLY be stolen if you dont!
- Do NOT run Nxt on a VPS.  Only run Nxt locally.  Even if you connect to your VPS securely via SSH, you are still not safe because all VPSs have backdoors.
- Nxt's P2P port is 7874 (tcp).  This port is the only port that needs to be open to run Nxt.
- Nxt also uses port 7875 for it's HTML client interface and port 7876 for API commands.  CLOSE THESE PORTS ON YOUR FIREWALL.

PS:If you get errors try this:
1. Go into your nxt folder >> webapps folder >> root >> WEB-INF and edit web.xml
2. In the parameter "<param-value>(IP_ADDRESS_GOES_HERE)</param-value>" put ur IP address
3.Save and run start.bat again

Thanks for posting, still can't get mine to work.  Was running 0.2.19 just fine, but now nothing.

Sorry, should have been more clear, I did update per your instructions, but the client is not working for me. 0.2.19 was working fine.  Any other suggestions?

What does not work? The client? The website? Please clarify

I followed directions, run the start.bat, go to local host and nothing, just times out.
