Title: help to downgrad bitcoin core from 0.14 to 0.13.2 on Ubuntu
Post by: remoteknife on April 04, 2017, 07:46:07 PM
Hello, I ran into trouble when trying to transfer coins from my old compromised Armory wallet to a brand new one. I had Armory 0.93.3  running on Bitcoin core 0.14, and got message
"Minimum Transaction Fee Is Too Large

The minimum fee for this transaction is 0.011275 BTC. That fee is too large and indicates that there are probably too many small inputs to fit into a single transaction. To send these Bitcoins, this transaction must be broken up into smaller pieces".

I tried breaking it up into smaller pieces, but had to go so low the fees ate too much.

Goatpig said Armory 0.93.3 has hardcoded fee limits, and I had to upgrade to 0.95.1

0.95.1 wont run on core 0.14, so I need core 0.13.2 installed, I found 0.13.2 at https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.13.2/ but only as a tar.gz which I don't know how to install.

Can anyone help?

It depends on your OS. That link has more than just the .tar.gz. It has every other binary file that is made with the releases in there.

Thank you. My OS is Ubuntu 16.04. I'm not very familiar with Linux, and was looking to find a deb-file.

Which file can I download and install?

If your OS is 64-bit, download bitcoin-0.13.2-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz. If you use a 32-bit OS, download bitcoin-0.13.2-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz.

For both, extract the folder inside, named bitcoin-0.13.2. Inside that folder are three folders, bin, include, and lib. Copy those three folders to /usr and merge them with the folders already there. Once that is done, you can start Core by running bitcoin-qt in the terminal.
