Title: error message running znort987/blockparser
Post by: Altoidnerd on January 31, 2014, 01:49:49 PM
I finally did get the parser compiled.  But I cannot understand simple error message because the data is where its supposed to be:

Code:

altoidnerd@altoidnerd-HP-EliteBook-8570w:~/Downloads/blockparser$ ./parser closure <address>

info: starting command "closure"
info: Building address equivalence graph ...
fatal: Invalid argument: failed to open block chain file /home/altoidnerd/.bitcoin/blocks/blk00000.dat
Aborted (core dumped)

I checked and that file is there...my blockchain is fine.  Is it because bitcoind is running?

edit...nope, because I killed bitcoind and the same message appears :-(

Edit: fixed.  This was because of an encrypted home directory.
