Title: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: quinnygoth on December 20, 2011, 01:45:14 AM Hi everybody
I've got a problem with Bitcoin Client. I'm running a MacBook Pro 10.5.8 and I've installed the Bitcoin Client app but the app wont launch. The icon bounces a couple of times on my dock and then the notice that says "Bitcoin Qt quit unexpectedly, do you want to relaunch etc." pops up. This happens repeatedly. Does anybody have any idea what might be wrong? Thanks :) Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: kinlo on December 20, 2011, 06:08:07 PM Can you have a look at your debug.log file?
You can find that in your home directory under Library/Application Support/Bitcoin If you have no money in your bitcoin wallet, you can always try deleting that entire directory, so it can be re-initialized...

Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: n2liquid on December 28, 2011, 04:22:47 PM @deejay then simply don't delete it. I assume you're having the same problem as quinnygoth?
You can move the folder somewhere else to see if the problem goes away, but please send the debug.log file like kinlo said nevertheless so he can help you better.

Try to download it again and re-install.

Try to download it again and re-install. why would the downloaded volume mount if it's corrupted? Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: oscer on January 13, 2012, 02:28:31 AM Now that looks like a fun Error
I would re-download the Bitcoin software and reinstall what ever software this is in Expected in: /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: dadj on February 25, 2012, 04:57:10 PM I finally figured this out from reading this thread. You need to move or rename the old bitcoin folder. The crash is caused by the new client not being able to create a bitcoin folder.
Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: gbr on February 26, 2012, 01:48:23 PM My client doesn't properly stop when closed. I can still see bitcoin-qt running in the task manager. Does anybody have the same issue? I'm on Windows 7.

Does anybody have the same issue? I'm on Windows 7. I have the same issue on OSX 10.6.8 I'm on Windows Vista. I've had it take up anywhere between 30-45 seconds to stop after the gui has gone due to tidying up, writing to the database, clearing database logs etc. This is on a truecrypt encrypted drive though. marked Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: gbr on February 26, 2012, 03:57:55 PM My client doesn't properly stop when closed.

Have to 'End Process'. Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: marked on February 26, 2012, 04:55:16 PM In my case it doesn't stop at all. Have to 'End Process'. can you run a windows compiled "tail" either from Services for Unix (SFU) from microsoft, or cygwin.com on debug.log in the %appdata%\bitcoin directory. It should tell you whether it is still doing anything or not. marked Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: gbr on February 26, 2012, 05:34:26 PM can you run a windows compiled "tail" either from Services for Unix (SFU) from microsoft, or cygwin.com on debug.log in the %appdata%\bitcoin directory. It should tell you whether it is still doing anything or not. marked Yep, it's still cooking. Also, taking >40MB of RAM. Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: marked on February 26, 2012, 05:49:48 PM Yep, it's still cooking. Also, taking >40MB of RAM. these should be your last set of lines in debug.log (upnp might be different depending on whether you are using it.)db.log may also contain some information. Code: DBFlush(false) also check whether there are any files in the %appdata%\bitcoin\database directory. There should only be one when finished. After deleting db.log and debug.log you could try running, Code: "c:\program files\bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe" -rescan marked.

I did not manage to fix it, I've upgraded to OSX 10.7.3 and installed Bitcoin version 0.6.0.6-beta There is some compatibility issue or a missing component/lib on 10.5.8 Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: bulanula on April 17, 2012, 03:21:29 PM Did you manage to solve this problem ?

I cannot upgrade, unfortunately :'( Are you sure it was not because the application could not create its directories ? Or maybe shall I try copying a library that works over from a newer system onto the older system ? I would greatly appreciate any input ! Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: SolarSilver on April 22, 2012, 09:36:44 PM Are you sure it was not because the application could not create its directories ? no, I tried all variations: a clean install, no old cruft or with an existing directory preloaded. The program does not launch that far, it barfs before it gets that far. This is a lib problem. If it was Linux, I could tell you what to do, Mac OS X is just voodoo, sorry ;-) Title: Re: Bitcoin Client Problem Post by: bulanula on April 22, 2012, 09:49:09 PM Are you sure it was not because the application could not create its directories ? no, I tried all variations: a clean install, no old cruft or with an existing directory preloaded.

Is this library backwards compatible etc. ? Thanks for the information SolarSilver ! |
