Title: Bitcoind crashed and no longer starts Post by: tuaris on December 25, 2013, 01:52:01 AM At exactly 8:30PM EST my bitcoind service crashed (out of nowhere) after running for several months:
Code: Dec 24 20:30:39 bitcoin kernel: pid 3664 (bitcoind), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped) Now it will no longer start, it dies with this message: Code: Assertion failed: (internal_key.size() >= 8), function ExtractUserKey, file ./db /dbformat.h, line 96 The debug log only shows: Code: 2013-12-25 01:49:00 Bitcoin version v0.8.5.0-gef14a26-beta () This is bitcoin 0.8.5 on FreeBSD 9.0 32-bit. Disk space and RAM are okay. Title: Re: Bitcoind crashed and no longer starts Post by: tuaris on December 25, 2013, 03:01:00 AM Upgrading to 0.8.6 does not fix this problem.

Title: Re: Bitcoind crashed and no longer starts Post by: DustyRah on December 29, 2013, 06:18:45 AM All of my clients don't work after upgrading to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8.
They start up and immediately give error saying "bitcoin-qt.exe has stopped working" and similarly "namecoin-qt.exe has stopped working" etc. I have tried totally uninstalling and installing again after removing from both install folder and Apps\Roaming folders. Also tried to start with -reindex parameter but no luck. Tried as administrator as well. Not sure what's up but all qt based apps don't work now on Windows 8.1. Anyone have any suggestions please help me out!! Thanks for your help~ Title: Re: Bitcoind crashed and no longer starts Post by: U1TRA_L0RD on January 01, 2014, 01:08:09 AM First back up anything bitcoin related thats important, and then reinstall windows and reinstall those files.

Disk space and RAM are okay. Exactly the same here (except openssl 1.0.1e and 64 bit 11.0). I tried a reindex but found I got the same errors during reindex that the Mac OSX folks typically had. eg: Invalid argument: not an sstable (bad magic number) I looked at the 0.8.5 -> 0.8.6 patch to env_posix.cc that disabled mmap() for writing in LevelDB for OSX. When I enabled that for FreeBSD as well, the reindex problem was solved. |
