Title: Armory Crashes (only online version) (fixed)
Post by: RarsMover11 on December 19, 2013, 10:52:10 AM
I've had some problems with my computer and decided to rollback my system to a point where it still worked.
After I did that I had to download the entire blockchain again and got the following message:

After removing some wallets (it's backed up), I got bitcoinQT working normally again.
However, the armory crashes when I run it in online mode.

If I run the armory in offline mode there is no issue at all.

Not really sure what to do here. (already tried reinstalling both bitcoinQT and the Armory).

Any advice?

This is becoming a major embarrassment for Armory! This is disgusting! Every time I send bitcoins - it crashes!

First, run Armory without managing bitcoind. Then start BitcoinQt and let it sync. Then start Armory with the -rebuild argument and see if it crashes.

You should send your log files and detailed steps of the crashes to the support channel: support@bitcoinarmory.com

I tried this but it still crashes the instant it tries to rebuild the database.

So I deleted the databaes directory. After that it works again.
Thanks for the help.

Then the DB was corrupted early on. Currently calling --rebuild doesn't actually destroy the DB files before creating new ones. It writes over it instead. We intent to fix that for 0.91

At this time, deleting the DB folder manually is the right way to fix the crash.
