Title: MultiBit crashing on OpenSUSE 13.2
Post by: Manfred Macx on December 30, 2014, 05:53:49 PM
After updating OpenSUSE 13.2 my MB is crashing every time I enter the password. I found a topic about this on github https://github.com/jim618/multibit/issues/325 I tried the soulution proposed by drizzt: zip -d "multibit-exe.jar" lib/x86_64/{freebsd,linux}/libscrypt.so
but I get:

zip warning: name not matched: lib/x86_64/freebsd/libscrypt.so
zip warning: name not matched: lib/x86_64/linux/libscrypt.so

Does anyone have similar problem and knows a solution?

I don't actually have a solution but the solution you tried, with an exe file, doesn't seem linuxy.  I run GNU/Linux all the time and I can't run exe files unless I use wine or something.  Multibit is a java program so I guess I'm just confused with what's going on.

EDIT: Oh, well, sorry I just looked closer and perhaps the issue is that your path to that lib isn't just 'linux' or 'bsd'

Check the path to libscript.so in your zipfile.

Thank you for your help. However, I don't have the libscrypt.so installed as far as I can see (nor any other scrypt). I was looking at hs_error.log from JVM and there is a lot of stuff in there but I can see the multibit-exe.jar is mentioned.

Hi,

I am on 13.1 and -at first- could not find how (specifically where) to apply the mentioned solution, I do not know whether it is the same in1 3.2 as in 13.1 (probably it is) but I had to go into the directory /MultiBit-0.5.18 (and thus NOT in the directory /Multibit) and execute the command from within that drectory, after that Multbit worked fluently and also without an open Terminal window when running.

so you'll probably have to to:
Code:
cd /path/to/MultiBit-0.5.18
(or go to that map in Dolphin filebrowser and from within that map choose (right-click) action-open a terminal)

and then

Code:
zip -d "multibit-exe.jar" lib/x86_64/{freebsd,linux}/libscrypt.so

Good luck!

Thank you! I managed to delete the files this way. It seems to be working since I managed to export private keys without MB crashing.
