Development

Hi all. I am trying to configure Litecoin Testnet. So I have a downloaded binary file from official site (litecoin.org), have unpacked (I am using ubuntu 16.04), have created litecoin.conf file look like this
server=1
rpcuser=yuri
rpcpassword=whyDidTheBulletProofElephantCrossTheRoad
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=19332
testnet=1

Than have run the demo → litecoind -daemon -testnet

Ok. Its worked. I am getting the adress for my account, but when I am tring to send a test coins from (faucet) , my litecoind does not receive. Please Help…!!!

Check the testnet chain for confirmation it was actually sent: Litecoin Testnet Block Explorer & API — SoChain

Also check, did it actually start in testnet mode?

Could you provide a generated address example? If it starts with M, L or 3 then it is not testnet.

Ah, this is interesting.

This is your address, which is empty:

But, that same address, if used as a Bitcoin one, has balance:

I think you’re using a faucet for the wrong currency (bitcoin, in this case). Please confirm faucet URL.

I just sent a few testnet coins to the address you posted, since it was still empty. If you (or someone else) needs more coins just tell me.
