Title: Wallet crashes on updating block synch Post by: tjad on August 13, 2018, 09:58:14 PM When updating block such, my wallet crashes. The debug log reports: 2018-06-01 14:28:41 socket recv error An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. (10054).
I have uninstalled and reinstalled my wallet twice, but it continues to crash on an 8 AUG block. Any suggestions? Title: Re: Wallet crashes on updating block synch Post by: cryptonerddy on August 13, 2018, 10:11:22 PM What wallet?

(10054). This seems to be an error associated with the connecting ports/nodes and not with your core wallet. I assume such an error occurs when the wallet connection to the nodes get filled up completely with the existing connections and the wallet doesn't get connected to outbound connectionsSo the only way for you to connect to a node to get the existing connection is by going into console and typing addnode <node> add/remove/onetry Since your core may be full with the existing connections, add command won't connect as they only work when the outgoing connections are not full . So Code: addnode <node> onetry Is the only possible option for you to try. Better take a backup of your wallet.dat before trying this out. Some ISP may even have blocked the 8333 port, so better get a non standard port from https://bitnodes.earn.com and try connecting.

Title: Re: Wallet crashes on updating block synch Post by: Theb on August 14, 2018, 09:42:06 AM I've read that you have installed and uninstalled Bitcoin Core as well did you remember to back up your wallet.dat file before you did the process? I have encountered this problem before and it might be more of a hardware or firewall problem of the pc you are trying to connect with. Try to tweak some firewall settings and see if this solves your problem or if this does not work you can also try to install Bitcoin Core on another pc if it solves the problem.
