Title: Armory Bootup Crash
Post by: matrix01 on March 03, 2015, 05:05:31 PM

Fellow Forum Members,
Is anyone else out there getting the same error message shown in the screen capture below?  My problem started when for testing purposes I sent .26 cents to my Armory watchonly wallet from my blockchain.info wallet and the .26 cents was not correctly displaying in the  "Spending Fund" area.  So I selected "Rebuild and Rescan Database At Startup" option for the purpose of getting my "Spending Fund" to correctly show as .26 cents  (.001 BTC).  Doing this fixed my "Spending Fund" problem because it was showing the correct .26 cents  (.001 BTC) amount yesterday. However, today I now get the error message shown below. In addition, my Armory has now frozen in the in the beginning of the bootup process.

I'm using Bitcoin Core 0.10 and Armory 0.93

Thanks for your post Btchris.  I looked over the thread for the link you provided and it seems to describe the same problem I am currently experiencing. You mentioned in the thread you had the bugfix installed and were not experiencing any problems. Will the bugfix automatically install or do we have to download it from the Armory website and install it ourselves?  Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, it requires that you download the current source code and build it yourself with Visual Studio on Windows or some other compiler on Linux (g++ I'd imagine). I don't know how long it will be before an official release, but I get the impression that it will be on the order of several days, and not several weeks (again, I'm not an Armory dev and I could be wrong). Waiting for an official release would be safest....
