Title: Trouble getting coins into Armory
Post by: pcnutt on October 06, 2018, 03:45:53 PM
I am new to bitcoin and here is my problem:

I have both Armory and Bitcoin Core installed and talking to each other.

Before I had Core installed I attempted to move some coins from Antpool to Armory (told you I am a newbie)

I eventually realized I needed Core and to let it download and point the DB location within Armory, which I did.

I have the address and I have verified the coins are out there somewhere using a block utility.

For some reason Armory does not show those coins, in fact it shows no transactions at all.

Any suggestions?  I considered having Armory "sweep" those coins into my wallet but I am unsure if I should sweep them or import them.

Thanks

Can you actually verify that Armory is online "Connected"? This indeed sounds pretty strange if that were to be the case.

Does armory show that you generated said adress that is holding your coins? Can you find it in your wallet?


Sounds to me like you're not able to connect properly, which could be caused by a number of reasons. It might be useful to post your logs.

I believe I am connected, in the lower right corner it says "Connected (217336  blocks) and it says Armory is online.

The address is listed in my wallet.

How much of my log file should I post?  The entire thing?

Thanks!

One line can be found quite often:

Code:
setSatoshiDir: directory does not exist: C:\Users\Ruprecht\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\

Can you verify that C:\Users\Ruprecht\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\ is the correct core data directory ?

It seems like it doesn't exist. I guess you set a specific data directory when installing core ? You'll have to point armory towards this directory.
