Title: Armory 0.94 Windows Hangs at Initializing Bitcoin Engine Post by: JeffZwolle on March 28, 2016, 06:35:04 AM Windows 7 64bit
Actions: uninstalled 0.93.3 installed 0.94 ; using https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/releases/tag/v0.94.0 reboot started 0.94 problem: Hangs at Initializing Bitcoin Engine 99% 3 blocks I tried multiple time starting. It started with 1, then 2, and now 3 blocks. A different value each start. No change seen in databases-folder BitcoinCore is running verified using bitcoin-cli getblockcount Also: Armory starts BitcoinCore, but it will not stop BitcoinCore uninstalled 0.94 installed 0.93.3 0.93.3 is running fine like before the 0.94-install, without the here mentioned problems Title: Re: Armory 0.94 Windows Hangs at Initializing Bitcoin Engine Post by: goatpig on March 28, 2016, 09:28:45 AM That's because the DB format between 0.93 and 0.94 is way different.
You have to give Armory another DB folder. Use the --dbdir command line argument, or backup your databases folder then delete its content to let the DB build in its default path.

I'm starting Armory with "--datadir=". "Bitcoin Install Dir" and "Bitcoin Home Dir" are also special places. Code: 2016-03-28 13:13 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2522 - Setting satoshi datadir = D:\BTC\wallet Where should this guardian come from?

Turn off auto bitcoind for now and start BitcoinQt manually.
