Title: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on January 04, 2021, 01:40:21 PM Ok Im in the proccess of reading posts to see if I can figure out what Ive done, I though I might aswell post up muy problem just incase someone knows exactly how to help me.
Ok im a newb at using armory, Ive been using a wallet on bitbargain up to now. I downloaded armory yesterday and ran it on my pc, I then generated an address in the wallet to receive coins, I then purchased coins and sent them to the wallet address. No coins appeared and I notoiced the wallet was offline. I did some digging and realised you need to have armory on 2 pc's and also have bitcoin core installed, Ive since installed armory on the 2nd pc and also installed bitcoin core and it says its working and I should now be able to see my transactions. Ive made a copy of the wallet I made and put it on a memory stick and Ive now got the same 2 wallets on each pc, thing is it says both wallets are offline, Im now lost on what to do to find my coins? Ive checked blockchain and my coins are unspent. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: goatpig on January 04, 2021, 06:17:29 PM Post your logs for inspection. You can grab them from Armory in the Files menu.

That's not quite correct. You do not need to have Armory installed on 2 PC's... that is only required if you wish to use an "online+offline airgapped PC" setup... You can definitely have Armory working fine using just one PC.Ive made a copy of the wallet I made and put it on a memory stick and Ive now got the same 2 wallets on each pc, thing is it says both wallets are offline, Im now lost on what to do to find my coins? However, you are correct that you definitely need to have Bitcoin Core installed and fully synced (and not running in "pruned" mode). sorry for the long post, tried usiong pastebin but couldnt gererate a link, one question does bitcoin core need to be 100% downloaded before armory will work? Yes. If you don't have Bitcoin Core installed and fully synced, then Armory will not function correctly... at the very least, it will likely not show your transaction history or correct balance.This is the software I download on the 3rd and generated the address from, I can download again, Im pretty sure it was from the same site you gave me. The 0.96 was on the other pc with bitcoin core. This is a good start... This PC definitely has the latest version of Armory.Code: 2021-01-07 09:35:03 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1287 - Loading Armory Engine: Code: 2021-01-07 09:35:05 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1872 - setSatoshiPaths I would suggest you focus on getting Armory and Bitcoin Core installed and running on ONE computer... and then you can move to a 2 computer setup later if you want the added security of the online+offline airgapped setup. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on January 08, 2021, 09:07:06 AM Hi thanks for the reply, ill just concentrate on one pc then, I have bitcoin core and the correct version running on this pc
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on January 08, 2021, 11:44:56 PM Hi thanks for the reply, ill just concentrate on one pc then, I have bitcoin core and the correct version running on this pc That's a good start... now, is Bitcoin Core fully synced and not running in "pruned" mode? That is to say, do you have the 350+ gigs worth of blockchain downloaded? And if so, what is the "datadir" that Bitcoin Core shows in the "Window -> Information" screen?https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/15/z3V9f.png Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on January 28, 2021, 11:25:20 AM Hi Yes I downloaded it all, Ive just run it and Im 2 weeks behing, Ill just look now for what your askimng, have been offshore so thats the delay
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on January 28, 2021, 11:47:58 AM My datablock says the bellow
C:\Users\garyf\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on January 29, 2021, 09:35:00 AM Ok, in that case, Bitcoin Core and Armory are using the "default" locations for everything... that's very useful and means you don't need to worry about configuring any of the "pathing" stuff ;)
Now you just need to wait for Bitcoin Core to fully sync up... once that happens then you should be able to run Armory without issue. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on February 25, 2021, 09:39:06 PM Bitcoin core downloads whatever days its behind every time I run it, if I run armory aswell once this is done my coins still dont appear.
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on February 26, 2021, 11:03:11 AM Have just noticed the drive bitcoin core is on has a max of 257 gig, so I cant have 350 gig on disc, I dont get why every time I run it it plays catch up on the days Im behind, should I uninstall and reinstall on another drive, I have 1tb of free space on this?
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on February 26, 2021, 11:41:55 PM Within Bitcoin Core, can you please look at the following menu:
"Settings -> Options -> Main" Is the box labelled "Prune block storage to XX GB" checked or unchecked? ??? Given your drive is less than the total Blockchain size, it sounds like your Bitcoin Core is running in "pruned" mode... Unfortunately, Armory will not work correctly if Bitcoin Core is "pruned" :-\ You will need to more your Bitcoin Core datadir to a larger drive so it can hold the full blockchain before Armory will work correctly. You don't need to uninstall Bitcoin Core... you can simply start Bitcoin Core using the -choosedatadir option and it will automatically prompt you to select a new location for the datadir. You can achieve this by pressing "Win+R" and entering: Code: C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -choosedatadir When the dialog comes up... click the option that says "use a custom data directory:"... and make sure that the box at the bottom labelled: "Discard blocks after verification" is NOT CHECKED! (This is the option that enables pruning, so you must ensure it is NOT selected!" Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on February 27, 2021, 05:57:36 PM The box with prune block storage is ticked at 2gb, ok here goes the move, ok done many thanks. Hopefully once the remainder downloads Ill be ok.
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: nc50lc on February 28, 2021, 03:11:27 AM The box with prune block storage is ticked at 2gb, ok here goes the move, ok done many thanks. Hopefully once the remainder downloads Ill be ok. Note: Bitcoin Core won't download the "remainder", it will sync from start all over again.Also, you need to close it and run again after unchecking the box to disable pruning. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on February 28, 2021, 09:23:06 PM its downloading now Im at 30%, Ive just checked the prune box is unchecked, all good?
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on February 28, 2021, 11:51:43 PM Yes, that should be the correct setup... prune box unchecked and you should see the Bitcoin Core block directory filling up. In Bitcoin Core, in "Window -> Information" menu option, check the "Blocksdir" value and make sure that the drive that that folder is on actually has ~350+ Gigs worth of free disk storage to hold it all! ;)
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 01, 2021, 09:10:59 AM I have 136 gig on the drive now, it was almost empty before, is there any way to speed up the download, seems awfull slow.
Blockdsir says D:\Program Files\blocks, I have 136 gig on disc and 853 gig of free space. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: nc50lc on March 01, 2021, 09:31:51 AM Increase your "database cache" to a reasonable amount like half of your RAM as long as the capacity isn't used by other programs, default is too low.
The option is just below 'pruning', then restart Bitcoin core. its downloading now Im at 30%, Ive just checked the prune box is unchecked, all good? It will be slower when you reach 70-90%.Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 01, 2021, 11:34:45 AM I have 32gb of ram and its ssd, ok database cashe increased to 16gb, think this around the max it wont let me do 17000. Much better progress now 2.5% ph, was 0.3, hopefully itll increase later in the day once people finnish work.

Much better progress now 2.5% ph, was 0.3, hopefully itll increase later in the day once people finnish work. If you mean because then there will be more network bandwidth, the speed of the sync isn't really dependent on the network bandwidth much at all. Granted, it still has to download 350+ gigs of data, but ny "broadband" connection should not bottleneck the syncing process unless it is being severely throttled/rate limited... The main bottlenecks are really in the disk I/O and the CPU processing.The disk I/O issue is somewhat countered by using SSD instead of HDD (massive uplift in read/write speeds) and by increasing the dbcache value (reduces overall reads/writes from and to the disk and keeps more data in RAM etc)... and, obviously, due to the sheer amount of number crunching involved, a poor CPU will struggle... but given your rig was a relatively new machine with 32gigs RAM, I would be very surprised if it wasn't relatively "powerful".

What he didn't accounted is the download speed will also be based from his peers. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 03, 2021, 02:11:32 PM Cpu is an i7-9750, had to switcvh it off for 24hrs, Im now at 90%, I have 50mb fibre, but due to all the stay at homers Im not seeing that now, maybe 30mb tops, i used to test it before the pandemic and get 50 mb or just over any time of day, Ive seen it as low as 2mb at peak times, bit of a joke.
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 05, 2021, 12:34:42 PM All downloaded, its now checking node status in armory, seems slow, 14% since 6am, any way to get it to speed up, at this rate itll be almost 2 days in total.

That speed looks like Bitcoin core is syncing in the background instead of Armory 'preparing database'.Is the path to Bitcoin's directory correctly set in Armory? The one you've set in HCP's reply "-choosedatadir". Because if it's not set, Armory will launch bitcoind with the default bitcoin datadir and since the blockchain isn't there, it'll sync from scratch instead of using the already downloaded blockchain. You can set it in "File->Settings->Bitcoin Home Directory" and restart Armory (close any lingering processes before launching Armory, or restart PC). Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 07, 2021, 04:47:52 PM Tried it and got an error, this is armorys location
C:\Program Files (x86)\Armory -choosedatadir. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on March 07, 2021, 07:08:15 PM you can't use -choosedatadir with Armory... as it is a specific commandline option for Bitcoin Core.
To set Armory to find the new Bitcoin Core custom location that you choose, you need to open the "File -> Settings..." menu in Armory and put the Bitcoin datadir into the box labelled "Bitcoin Home Dir" under the "Blockchain and Database Paths" section. For instance, I use E:\Bitcoin as my Bitcoin Core datadir... but "default" locations for Armory, so my Armory settings look like this: https://talkimg.com/images/2023/11/15/zI3Fz.png There is also a slightly more complicated way of doing it, which requires creating/modifying .conf files for Armory, as outlined here: https://btcarmory.com/docs/pathing Title: Re: armory newb Post by: nc50lc on March 08, 2021, 02:56:59 AM Is the path to Bitcoin's directory correctly set in Armory?

Tried it and got an error, this is armorys location I'm talking about this reply:You will need to more your Bitcoin Core datadir to a larger drive so it can hold the full blockchain before Armory will work correctly. You don't need to uninstall Bitcoin Core... you can simply start Bitcoin Core using the -choosedatadir option and it will automatically prompt you to select a new location for the datadir. You can achieve this by pressing "Win+R" and entering: Code: C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -choosedatadir Then in Armory, set bitcoin's data directory that you've chosen by following the last sentence. Same as the post above. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 08, 2021, 02:29:22 PM Its not looking at nodes now but other than that nothing is happening, its on preparing databases but theres no visable activity.
Ok I did a restart and its now looking for nodes again but its still painfully slow. Ive looked at D folder, there are 2 folders, bitcoin and programe files, in bitcoin there is 50gig and in programe files there is a folder called blocks which is 363 gig. Ive set the location in armory to bitcoin, is it looking in thre right place since its only 50gig, seems like ive got bitcoin spread over 2 folders? Should I delete everything in D and strart downloading bitcoin again, theres other stuff in programe files like nox and a coulpe of other things I dont recognise Ive set it to D:\Program Files\blocks\blocks\index and theres 600000nodes, its almost done 100000 but its not even at 1%, somethings not right? Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 08, 2021, 08:16:42 PM Now at 7% with 342145 blocks to go, its just the same as before.
Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on March 08, 2021, 08:29:16 PM Seems like something is off with your Bitcoin Core setup... and possibly the pathing within Armory.
If you have Bitcoin Core GUI open... and look at "Window -> Information"... what are the values for: - "datadir"? - "blocksdir"? In Armory, under "File -> Settings..." what values do you have for: - "Let Armory run Bitcoin Core/bitcoind in the background" - Ticked or not ticked? - Bitcoin Install Dir - Bitcoin Home Dir - Armory Database Dir ??? Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 08, 2021, 10:31:38 PM I had to shut armory down, I couldnt log in to here with it running, internet to slow.
Ok datadir D:\Program Files blocksdir D:\Program Files\blocks Let Armory run Bitcoin Core/bitcoind in the background" - Ticked or not ticked TICKED Bitcoin Install Dir nothing in this box Bitcoin Home Dir D:\Program Files\blocks\blocks\index Armory Database Dir nothing in this box Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on March 08, 2021, 10:56:09 PM Ok... I would suggest "unticking" the box... I suspect this is why you have "competing" copies of the Bitcoin blockchain being downloaded/used. Armory might be spawning "bitcoind" in the background using a different block storage location than what Bitcoin Core is attempting to use.
Then, change "Bitcoin Home Dir" to: D:\Program Files Shutdown Armory and leave it closed... then start Bitcoin Core manually and double check that: - In the menu "Settings -> Options -> Main"... that the "Prune block storage" option is NOT ticked. - Click the "Open Configuration File" button and make sure there is no line that starts "prune=" If the box is currently ticked... and/or there is a "prune=..." line in your config file, then Armory will NOT work. Once Bitcoin Core is fully synced, Start Armory. Title: Re: armory newb Post by: garyf22 on March 09, 2021, 01:55:44 PM Ok I did all that, it wouldnt let me open the configuration file?
Ive restarted and there doesnt seem to be any improvement. Just noticed in bottom right of armory it normally says offline, its now saying connected (0 blocks) but its still painfully slow now at 12% Title: Re: armory newb Post by: HCP on March 09, 2021, 08:35:29 PM Just noticed in bottom right of armory it normally says offline, its now saying connected (0 blocks) but its still painfully slow now at 12% Is your Bitcoin Core actually fully synced? ??? In the "Window -> Information" menu in Bitcoin Core... what is the "Current Block Height" number? ???I suspect that your Bitcoin Core is the bottleneck here... and that is generally caused by: 1. Storing Block and chainstate data on "spinning" HDD disks. Sync speed can be greatly improved by using an SSD. 2. Not using RAM efficiently. If you have a substantial amount of RAM ie. 16+ Gigs, you can increase the dbcache setting in "Settings -> Options -> Main". Setting it to half of your total RAM capacity works quite well. So, if you have 16Gigs, set it to 8192 MiB etc. This reduces the amount of Disk I/O by storing more of the data in RAM (which is orders of magnitude faster than disks). 3. Poor CPU. Low end CPU's just don't have the processing power to crunch the data required to verify the block data in a timely manner. Having said that... any relatively modern Core i5/i7 or Ryzen 5/7 CPU or higher should not have any problem. The issue is "mobile" chips and the single/dual core celerons etc that are often used in laptops etc. If you can't upgrade the CPU, you'll just have to wait :-\ 4. Poor internet bandwidth. To fully sync, you need to download 350+Gigs of data. There is no way around this. So, if you internet is data capped or speed throttled, there is not a lot you can really do except wait :-\ What are your the specs of your PC (CPU/RAM/Disk)? ??? Title: Re: armory newb Post by: nc50lc on March 10, 2021, 03:39:50 AM Rename your Armorylog.txt (where you got the logs in the first page) as a backup and launch Armory, after a few minutes, close it.
Then share the new logs from the newly created Armorylog.txt (automatically created after using Armory), it'll take a ton of replies to get the actual issue but with the logs, users may be able to point out the current issue. |
