Title: Does Armory time out after a while? Post by: Piper67 on November 29, 2013, 08:33:11 PM Hi there:
Running Armory 0.87, and sometimes, when I haven't maximized it for a while, it starts again from scratch as if it had shut down on its own. Is this a time-out function within Armory? Why would it shut down? Title: Re: Does Armory time out after a while?

Is this a time-out function within Armory? Why would it shut down? That behavior doesn't sound familiar. However, 0.87.2 and 0.88.1 both had bugs that would cause them to crash once every few days (every time the blockchain grows 128 MB). This has been fixed in the latest version. Don't know if it's related. Title: Re: Does Armory time out after a while?

Don't know if it's related. That was a ridiculously fast response, thanks! I guess that might explain it, then. As long as it isn't an indication of any other nefarious thing that might be going on, it's all good. I've held back from upgrading beyond 0.87 because I heard stories about later versions being unstable. Title: Re: Does Armory time out after a while?

It hasn't been perfect for everyone, but if you are nice to it, it is dramatically better than the previous versions (uses dramatically less RAM, starts up faster, has cool new backup features, etc).

Any known problems with running the latest version online and 0.87 offline? Title: Re: Does Armory time out after a while?

Until we get the new wallet format done, you can use something as ancient as 0.60 on the offline computer and it will still work with the latest version online (though those ancient versions will no longer work online) |
