Title: [SOLVED] Crash when starting to Build Databases -- Ubuntu 14.04 [SOLVED]
Post by: LeMiner on August 07, 2014, 10:44:54 AM
Good morning,


So I've installed Armory on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 system, together with Bitcoin-QT and Bitcoind.

The sync with network went fine, took a few hours but all together ok.

Now when it finishes syncing with the network and just as it wants to start to build the databases, it crashes. No error message or anything, it just simply closes out.


When I restart Armory after the crash, Bitcoind is still running and in order for armory to work I have to kill bitcoind and then when it finishes syncing with the network, it crashes again  :-\

Any ideas would be very helpful.

delete the content of ~/.armory/databases.

Then start Armory with this flag:

--dbdir=/home/*myusername*/.armory/databases

delete the content of ~/.armory/databases.

Then start Armory with this flag:

--dbdir=/home/*myusername*/.armory/databases

Just tried that, still crashes. Strangely enough the databases folder was actually empty.

I got some logs tough.

Some errors I see:

36 attempts to load blockchain failed. Remove mempool.bin
mempool.bin does not exist, nothing deleted.
Error processing BMD Input.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Shall I post the logs? Thanks for the help in advance :)

Just got it working, not sure how or why, tinkered with some different settings and suddenly it started building the database.


Thanks for your help ;)!
