Title: More user-friendly behavior when rerun with bitcoin client already running Post by: vermorel on July 23, 2011, 07:51:11 PM I have tried to start a 2nd bitcoin instance on Win7 (v0.3.24-beta of the bitcoin client); and the application silently terminates. Instead of telling me what has gone wrong, it dumps the following into debug.log
Bitcoin version 0.3.24-beta OS version Windows NT 6.1 (build 7601, Service Pack 1), 64-bit edition System default language is 80 French_France.1252 Language file locale/fr_FR/LC_MESSAGES/bitcoin.mo (French) Default data directory C:\Users\JoannesVermorel\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin Existing instance found It would probably better to have a message box telling Bitcoin client is already running, please close this instance first to open a new one.

It already does this on Linux, so I dunno what's going on there. |
