Title: Armory 0.9 Beta & Bitcoin-QT 0.8.6.0 Beta on Windows 7 stuck in Offline Post by: Corelianer on January 17, 2014, 03:56:51 PM I read all the help pages I could find, but I couldn't get Armory out of the offline mode.
Environment: - Windows 7 64-Bit - Armory 0.9 Beta - Bitcoin-QT 0.8.6.0 Beta (updated from 0.8.5.0 Beta) - System-Time up to date - Blockchain synchronized - Machine Lenovo T420 i7 8GB Ram - I made the "File","Settings" to specifiy where my Bitcoin Client is located - All installations are default - I restarted Armory and also tried "Skip online check at startup" no success I tried to start the bitcoin client first, then Armory says I should close it. Do you have any advice?

well at least it's synchronizing now Maybe it didn't like that i let the Bitcoin sync fist and then install Armory...

Another nice feature would be to import the bootstrap.dat over a menue instead of the command-line parameter. The time to get all working is far long in my opinion as the way it is right now. |
