Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: Stroto on May 02, 2017, 10:13:49 AM Looks good. No issues with 0.14.1 so far.
Goatpig, Achow101, Droark and others, you should really have a donation address so that we can at least buy you a few beers for your hard work, much appreciated.

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: johnlu on May 02, 2017, 02:40:05 PM I update from bitcoin-core-0.14.0 and armory 0.95.1 to 0.14.1 and 0.96.
I'm getting this: Code: $ armory And it remains stuck in "Preparing Databases". Edit: I had to close armory gui and to kill ArmoryDB and bitcoind, I did it few times and now it seems to be working. It's scanning transaction history now... Will it take too long? Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goatpig on May 02, 2017, 02:49:49 PM Quote It's scanning transaction history now...

To solve this you actually just have to close armory normally after armorydb has fully loaded and restart it again. Afterwards everything should just work fine. ;-) Goatpig, Achow101, Droark and others, you should really have a donation address so that we can at least buy you a few beers for your hard work, much appreciated. goatpig suggested that he might do it after this release, and he definitely deserves it, now that Armory is in such good shape. goatpig? @goatpig: I have to fully agree.

However if I choose "receive" and then the respective wallet I get a small loading window which just doesn't resolve into anything and just stays there:
https://i.imgur.com/5bDLBXB.jpg When I double click on the wallet and press receive in the wallet view it just doesn't react to the button. Other UI elements work fine. Win64 0.96 Needless to say that the watch only wallet is configures as my own with security offline. I had this already on the testing release. Never wanted to receive at times so I don't know if with both which I have tried. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goatpig on May 06, 2017, 11:08:54 PM Post armorylog.txt

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: 2NIzko on May 08, 2017, 10:26:13 AM Ubuntu 16.04 with armory_0.96-gcc5.4_amd64.deb, after doing upgrade from 95.1 to 96, i start armory and it doesnt even start up, the icon would flash a few times and the logs wont even write anything.
When i start armory from terminal, i get this: Illegal instruction (core dumped) Was i supposed to completely remove 95.1 ? Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: 2NIzko on May 08, 2017, 11:54:08 AM So i sorted that out by removing armory_0.96-gcc5.4_amd64.deb and installing armory_0.96-gcc4.7_amd64.deb
Then when i start armory i get: (ERROR) ArmoryUtils.py:3747 - Unsupported language specified. Defaulting to English (en) /usr/local/lib/armory/armoryengine/Transaction.py:2790: SyntaxWarning: import * only allowed at module level def PyCreateAndSignTx_old(srcTxOuts, dstAddrsVals): -ERROR - 1494239616: (WalletManager.cpp:78) Failed to open wallet with error: missing main wallet entry Illegal instruction (core dumped) I think this is because in version 95.1 i had an unconfirmed transaction because of a low fee given, a mistake i made. I knew that clear all unconfirmed did not work in armory 95.1, so i upgraded now to run "clear all unconfirmed" but as soon as i open armory it throws that error about the entry. Anything i can do to get this fixed @goatpig? I also see the wallet being locked in the folder to "_wallet.lmdb-lock" I tried removing the wallet or moving it in a temp dir, started up armory again and i see this error message now: (ERROR) ArmoryUtils.py:3747 - Unsupported language specified. Defaulting to English (en) /usr/local/lib/armory/armoryengine/Transaction.py:2790: SyntaxWarning: import * only allowed at module level def PyCreateAndSignTx_old(srcTxOuts, dstAddrsVals): Illegal instruction (core dumped) After which i went back into .armory folder and deleted databases and settings to start from scratch. Armory then opened with welcome message etc. It started scanning and then during 68% it got stuck so i looked in .bitcoin/debug.log and saw this error: -INFO - 1494241552: (DatabaseBuilder.cpp:268) parsed block file #587 -INFO - 1494241554: (SocketObject.cpp:350) POLLIN recv return 0 -ERROR - 1494241554: (BitcoinP2P.cpp:1037) caught StopBlockingLoop in processDataStackThread -INFO - 1494241554: (BitcoinP2P.cpp:969) Disconnected from Bitcoin node So i started up armory again and it is busy scanning now but stuck at preparing databases.. looked in .armory/dbLog.txt and it still scanning but its just not showing it in the GUI anymore. So currently im waiting for this to finish can someone help in regards to the wallet being re-imported without the unconfirmed transaction? When i tried importing it while armory is preparing databases it locked the wallets and crashed the GUI while armory was actually still scanning in the background. please someone help!!! i hope i dont lose any bitcoin because of unconfirmed transaction ???

I even deleted the zeroconf-lock files. when i tried to import the wallet above, like i said previously i notice 2 extra files in the folder that are auto created as the crash happens: armory_XXXX_wallet.lmdb-lock armory_XXXX_wallet.lmdb I dont know why these files are auto created? I uninstalled armory 96.0 and reinstalled the old version, seeing everything sync up again, the entry that was unconfirmed is no longer there anymore which is a good thing. The bad thing is that it doesnt seem like wallet importing works in 96.0. Im going to recreate a new empty wallet from the old armory and try import that into the new armory and il get back to you on that.

You can delete these all you want, but 0.96 will recreate them on the fly if they are missing. Earlier versions don't use these files.

Ok, well i created a test wallet in 95.1 and upgraded to 96.0, i open armory with test wallet files inside folder already and it will create these watch only wallets but as soon as the GUI begins to start up, it crashes. I especially tried this with offline armory, to import digital backup or even from paper backup and as soon as i import, it crashes, i open offline armory again and the wallet didnt import, yet its still in the folder. I checked the armorylog.txt file and it says this before the crash: 2017-05-08 17:17 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2102 - Loading wallets... 2017-05-08 17:17 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2167 - Number of wallets read in: 1 2017-05-08 17:17 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2172 - Wallet (35Qpf31Yj): "Test " (Encrypted) 2017-05-08 17:17 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2177 - Loading Multisig Lockboxes crashes just after that. Im not sure why this is happening even with brand new wallets. The other thing is that i tried doing a test backup on both wallets and it crashes the gui on that too. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: 2NIzko on May 08, 2017, 03:54:07 PM I also noticed something weird (which i dont know if this might be the cause): between the two gcc armory versions, the 4.7 one was the one that ive been trying to get to work with the wallet files (which means it opens up).
However when checking why armory_0.96-gcc5.4_amd64.deb wasnt opening at all. Everytime i tried opening it, i saw in syslog this error line: traps: python2[29095] trap invalid opcode ip:7f5a01402ec0 sp:7ffeddbf0808 error:0 in _CppBlockUtils.so[7f5a00f4d000+6a9000] And when i do gcc -v in terminal to see my version of gcc, it prints that i have the latest 5.4: gcc version 5.4.0 20160609 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.4) ???

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: JeffZwolle on May 09, 2017, 10:26:34 PM I just upgraded Bitcoin Core and Armory. Here are the notes I made of my first experiences after the upgrade.
Windows 7 64bit Updated Bitcoin Core from 0.14.0 to 0.14.1 Updated Armory from 0.95.1 to 0.96 Armory crashed every time after scanning. Emptied %appdata%\Armory\databases , causing Armory to rebuild the database solved this problem. btw: Amazing that this is the only piece of software that manages to fully use my 16 GB RAM while rebuilding the database. No problem for me. Errormesage from tray-icon after starting Armory about the connection being lost to BitcoinCore while that is not really so. I am running BitcoinCore continuously in the background, regardless of Armory running or not. The CMD-window is still always visible. Problem: Saving/Backing up a wallet unencrypted to a file does not work. "Save to File" I want to use it to backup the private keys to another encrypted medium.

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goodhopes on May 10, 2017, 03:37:33 PM I upgraded from Armory 0.95.1 with Bitcoin Core 0.13.2 to Armory 0.96.0 for Ubuntu/Debian 64-bit with GCC 5.3. because I had two unconfirmed transactions (2 weeks old), which I wanted to clear.
Now, the new version of Armory doesn't finish Scanning Transaction History (1 second left)....I started Bitcoin Core with "bitcoin-qt --disablewallet" manually (this was the only possibility to get it working with Armory 95.1, therefore I just continued to do the same with the new version) In armorylog.txt: 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:558 - Usermode: Expert 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1681 - Changing usermode: 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1682 - From: Expert 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1690 - To: Expert 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1814 - startBitcoindIfNecessary 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1850 - setSatoshiPaths 2017-05-10 12:32 (WARNING) -- SDM.py:396 - Spawning DB with command:ArmoryDB --db-type="DB_FULL" --cookie --satoshi-datadir="/home/andi/.bitcoin/ blocks" --datadir="/home/andi/.armory/" --dbdir="/home/andi/.armory/databases" 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.py:665 - Executing popen: ['ArmoryDB', '--db-type="DB_FULL"', '--cookie', '--satoshi-datadir="/home/andi/. bitcoin/blocks"', '--datadir="/home/andi/.armory/"', '--dbdir="/home/andi/.armory/databases"'] 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1900 - Setting netmode: 1 2017-05-10 12:32 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:1882 - loadBlockchainIfNecessary 2017-05-10 12:32 (ERROR) -- ArmoryQt.py:1188 - 3 attempts to load blockchain failed.

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: Portnoy on May 12, 2017, 07:34:26 PM Windows 7 64bit
Bitcoin Core 0.14.0 Armory 0.96 I upgraded to 0.96 from 0.94.1 and after several crashes (usually at the scanning transaction history stage), restarts and reboots I finally got Armory to startup normally and show transactions and balances. Everything seemed to be fine after several days, until I did a normal transaction yesterday. I sent some bitcoin from an offline wallet using the method of a usb key to move the tx file back and forth. The transaction went through okay. It got confirmed quickly as evidenced but the receiving wallet and blockchain.info. But Armory didn't show the transaction as having any confirmations(when it really had several), and thus making a lot of the BTC in that wallet unspendable, when it should be spendable. I decided to do a 'Rescan Balance' to see if that would update the list of txs to show the proper number of confirmations instead of 0. When next I tried to start Armory it stopped working... I tried more times and either ArmoryQt would stop-working/crash or ArmoryDB would, usually at the scanning transaction history stage, or at scanning or resolving tx hashes. After each crash the dblog.txt is always empty and the end of armorylog.txt had several lines of: (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4619 - Dashboard switched to "Scanning" mode Next I tried to do a 'Rebuild and Rescan Databases' which didn't help after several attempts(including reboots of the computer)... still the crashes. I next tried 'Clear All Unconfirmed' in case it was that last tx (which didn't show as confirmed in Armory but really was confirmed) was the problem. That didn't work right away but after a reboot it seemed to startup normally again. But that transaction was not included in the list of transactions and the balance of the wallet was back to where it was before that transaction; i.e. incorrect. Of course I am reluctant to do any more transactions from that wallet when Armory can't even display the balance correctly. Again I tried to do a 'Rescan Balance'... but back to the crashing of ArmoryDB. Even when I try 'Clear All Unconfirmed' and reboot the computer again. It gets as far as showing in the ArmoryQt client, 'Resolving Tx Hashes'... showing a small percentage but also a small number of seconds to go: e.g. 3% 5 seconds. Still dblog is empty and armorylog ends with the line: (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4619 - Dashboard switched to "Scanning" mode. The ArmoryDB console, after a Windows pop-up error message "ArmoryDB.exe has stopped working", and before I choose to 'Close the program' shows several lines of incremented error messages... The last few lines in the ArmoryDB console are: -ERROR- 1494614491: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1405) Block deser error while processing tx filters: -ERROR- 1494614491: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1406) raw data does not match expected block hash -ERROR- 1494614491: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1407) Skipping this block -ERROR- 1494614492: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1405) Block deser error while processing tx filters: -ERROR- 1494614492: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1406) raw data does not match expected block hash -ERROR- 1494614492: (..\BlockchainScanner.cpp:1407) Skipping this block I am wondering if I should try the 'Factory Reset' option next or wait for the next update where this bug is fixed...

Does 0.96 need greater than 8 GB of RAM? I have 9GB in total on this machine before anything loads. What would be a good amount? But again...

You can tone down the RAM utilization by lowering RAM target and thread count during the build & scan. Your issue is not fixed regardless, if you didn't rebuild your DB, it is still corrupt. You want to delete your Armory /databases folder, shut down your Bitcoin node and start ArmoryDB with the following command line: Code: --db-type=DB_BARE --ram-usage=1 --thread-count=(whatever you want) Once the DB is done building (says "Enabling zero conf"), you can start ArmoryQt on top of it and the DB will start scanning. Once it is done scanning, you can shut this whole thing down and go back to regular operations.

That's damn weird. Can you try to reproduce this on testnet? In fact I am not entirely sure what exactly I imported. It certainly was a vanity-address, generated with vanitygen. I imported the private key. I couldn't spend funds on that address with Armory. I believe I sent the funds to the vanity-address I created, but Armory showed a different address when importing the privkey. But then I did see the funds in a pre-0.96 Armory, just couldn't spend them. I am not too sure. I remember that I could import privkeys created by bitcoinj, but couldn't see the funds there, and that bitcoinj used compressed keys back then already. Anyway, I'll just wait for the final version of the new wallet format and check again then. If you want I'll send you the crashing wallet to have a look by yourself. It's all not too important for me. But maybe I found some weird cornercase that helps for finalizing the wallet format?

It showed 466380 in the bottom right when I first started it and right now it shows 466381. /edit: The only thing seemingly not normal is that when I shutdown Armory, ArmoryDB stays open and I need to shut it down manually.

I am pretty sure that if you change the fee, you have to press the Max button again to recalculate the amount you are sending. The Max button does not set a flag stating you want to send everything, instead it calculates what "everything" is, and fills the amount for you. But if you do something to change that calculation, you have to redo it (i.e. click Max again).

- when clicking a wallet, I get four categories (used, unused, change, imported), and inside of those again three categories (p2pkh etc). Only then I actually get to see the individual addresses. I liked it more as it was earlier, with one large list as soon as I open the wallet. Back then, "imported" was a field in the long list, for example. It's not too bad yet, as I only have coins in the "used - p2pkh" category. - in coin control, I don't see the comment I wrote to an address. This would make coin control close to useless for me. My workaround is to click through the wallet the regular way, mentally choose the inputs I would want to use, and choose the corresponding bitcoin-amount-address in coin control. Both aren't that tragic, but maybe it's easy to change, as it only changed recently afaik.

I type in my two fragments, but the "Restore from fragments" button remains disabled bottom right. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug with a workaround perhaps?

Thanks goatpig, here's the partial armorylog.txt at the time of my first attempt to restore from the fragmented paper backup, during which the "Restore from fragments" button remained greyed so I couldn't click it after typing in the codes: 2017-05-21 21:54 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4619 - Dashboard switched to "Scanning" mode 2017-05-21 21:54 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4619 - Dashboard switched to "Scanning" mode 2017-05-21 22:13 (INFO) -- qtdialogs.pyc:11716 - Good data from enter_one_frag exec! 0 2017-05-21 22:13 (ERROR) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11718, in dataEnter File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11898, in addFragToTable File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11803, in checkRestoreParams AttributeError: 'QString' object has no attribute 'ags' 2017-05-21 22:16 (INFO) -- qtdialogs.pyc:11716 - Good data from enter_one_frag exec! 1 2017-05-21 22:16 (ERROR) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11718, in dataEnter File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11898, in addFragToTable File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11803, in checkRestoreParams AttributeError: 'QString' object has no attribute 'ags' 2017-05-21 22:25 (INFO) -- qtdialogs.pyc:11716 - Good data from enter_one_frag exec! 0 2017-05-21 22:25 (ERROR) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11718, in dataEnter File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11898, in addFragToTable File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11803, in checkRestoreParams AttributeError: 'QString' object has no attribute 'ags' 2017-05-21 22:27 (INFO) -- qtdialogs.pyc:11716 - Good data from enter_one_frag exec! 1 2017-05-21 22:28 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4876 - New Block! : 467495 2017-05-21 22:28 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4884 - Current block number: 467495 2017-05-21 22:29 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4876 - New Block! : 467496 2017-05-21 22:29 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:4884 - Current block number: 467496 2017-05-21 22:31 (INFO) -- qtdialogs.pyc:11716 - Good data from enter_one_frag exec! 1 2017-05-21 22:31 (ERROR) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11718, in dataEnter File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11898, in addFragToTable File "qtdialogs.pyc", line 11803, in checkRestoreParams AttributeError: 'QString' object has no attribute 'ags' 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5400 - BDM is safe for clean shutdown 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- SDM.pyc:457 - Called stopBitcoind 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5414 - Attempting to close the main window! 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5400 - BDM is safe for clean shutdown 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- SDM.pyc:457 - Called stopBitcoind 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- SDM.pyc:463 - ...but bitcoind is not running, to be able to stop 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5414 - Attempting to close the main window! 2017-05-21 22:33 (ERROR) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "ArmoryQt.py", line 5328, in closeEvent File "ArmoryQt.py", line 5415, in closeForReal File "twisted\internet\base.pyc", line 580, in stop ReactorNotRunning: Can't stop reactor that isn't running. 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1138 - C++ block utilities loaded successfully 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1255 - 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1256 - 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1257 - 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1258 - ************************************************************ 2017-05-21 22:33 (INFO) -- ArmoryUtils.pyc:1259 - Invoked: C:\Program Files (x86)\Armory\ArmoryQt.exe Thanks for any suggestions!

Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: Brangdon on May 28, 2017, 10:37:46 AM I am still using 0.93.3 version for both online and offline wallets of Armory in conjuction with bitcoin core 0.11.2 and would appreciate any recomendations for smooth migration from 0.93.3 to 0.96 on Win 10 machine I am also a returning user upgrading from 0.93.3. My version of bitcoin core was of a similar vintage. I updated both. When I ran Armory it ran bitcoin-qt for me, but that process quit and Armory didn't seem to notice. From the core logs I found I had to run bitcoin-qt directly and tell it to re-index the database. I'm currently doing this, and it seems to be going OK, but I thought you might want to know the process wasn't as smooth and automatic as one might wish and required this manual intervention.Also, bitcoinarmory.com is not our website. The website is https://btcarmory.com/ Eeek. Bitcoinarmory.com is what a Google search found for me. This post is what made me realise it was old.Still, I'm very pleased to learn Armory is back under active development. I was actually Googling "Armory replacement" and expecting to have to find a new wallet to spend my coins. In other good news, my offline computer still boots. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: bitbitcoincoin on June 07, 2017, 02:34:04 PM Mine's working great. I sent a transaction and the comment says chained zc. Does that mean anything? Means your tx is spending an unconfirmed txout. I don't see any further replies on this issue. I just had the same comment on my transaction and it's still showing unconfirmed after 12 hours when the previous transaction only took about 1 hour. Do I need to do anything to have this transaction work or do I just wait for it to confirm> Thanks. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goatpig on June 07, 2017, 02:47:30 PM Chances are you didn't push a proper fee.
Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: bitbitcoincoin on June 07, 2017, 02:59:09 PM Chances are you didn't push a proper fee. Clicked send max, reading now there is a potential bug where Armory puts too small a fee when using the Max button? Can I just clear unconfirmed and try again or am I risking a double spend and more issues? Thanks for the quick reply. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goatpig on June 07, 2017, 04:28:02 PM If there's change, you should CPFP. Otherwise clear unconfirmed and push again.

RPC is the other interface your node provides the is used in Armory to gather fee estimates and error status on transactions broadcast failure (if you use the latest testing version). This would give you an idea what's going on with your transaction. Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: naska21 on June 09, 2017, 09:40:33 AM Hi, Armory 0.96.0.1 stuck on block 466853.

I'm trying to restore from a 2 of 3 fragmented paper backup, wallet version 1.35c with a SecurePrint code. I type in my two fragments, but the "Restore from fragments" button remains disabled bottom right. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug with a workaround perhaps? Getting a little nervous as now running low on options for accessing my funds... A Windows update destroyed the PC holding my bitcoins! Thanks for any help :-) Hi I am having the same paper backup issue on my Windows 10 computer. I have also downloading the Armory 0.96.2 test version from githut and the"restore wallet" is then not disabled anymore, but nothing happens when clicking the button.

UPDATE: Found a solution (or got lucky). I found helpful threads elsewhere that I did not find before and tried many variations. Sharing here to hopefully help someone else. Closed Bitcoin Core and Armory. Restarted computer. Opened only Armory in Admin user from shortcut menu. Ran offline, so skipped loading wallet. In Armory Help, reset to factory default and chose middle option to delete Armory database and settings but retained Bitcoin Core database. Closed Armory and restarted computer. Only opened Armory again in Admin user. Let it run and it fully populated the database. Never opened Bitcoin Core in this sequence. I had tried many of these options together but not in this sequence.

Just a question. Can a run a node on an external hard drive with the installation as is? And is it safe to store my bit coins before the first of August? Actually I heard a lot of stuff, but it's not as bad as people think right?! No need for a Trezor wallet... What are you thoughts Goatpig? Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: goatpig on June 14, 2017, 12:05:22 AM A proper cold storage setup is preferable to a HW wallet. These are better suited for daily spending purposes.
You can't import your Multibit seed in Armory as is. If you want to migrate your funds to Armory, should create a wallet in Armory, grab a recipient address and send your coins to that from Multibit. You can also reveal the private keys in Multibit and sweep them in Armory, but that's a whole let more prone to error. You can run the blockchain data in an external drive. If you have another machine, you can set the node + database on that machine and run the client on your regular PC if you feel so inclined. Your biggest limitation is bootstrapping the node, which demands a lot of bandwidth and disk space. As for August 1st, all pre fork coins will be present on both side of the fork. Anything you spend past that point can and will be mimicked on both sides, unless you taint your coins to be valid on only a given side. If you are dead set on which side you want to be in, you can go down that path. Otherwise you are better off just sitting it out.

You can create armorydb.conf in your datadir's folder and set the args there if you don't want to bother with them every run. Could you specify this dir more presicely, is it this ....Roaming/Armory/databaseses ? And what exactly should be put into armorydb.conf ?

I figured my fee was too low and it would eventually either confirm or disappear, but it still shows as 0 confirmations now, with Armory claiming "Connected" and "(469262 blocks)". I checked on Blockchain Info (https://blockchain.info/tx/8f124355f16f6df69aa3985d464b817bcfa4190a95bedb96ecff6090dc29d2af) which says is confirmed after 9 minutes. Why is Armory still saying it is unconfirmed?
I am using Armory 0.96.0.2 and Bitcoin Core v0.14.1. I recently updated both after a long period of not using Bitcoin, but my wallets and older transactions show up fine.

Got wallets set up in Armory. Blockchain fully synced. Moved part of balance from Armory to Coinbase to test and Coinbase shows balance available to use, so was node processed. Went to send rest of Armory balance to Coinbase and remaining Armory balance shows unconfirmed. Closed Armory. Deleted mempool.dat, then restarted Armory. Synced. Still shows unconfirmed. The remaining balance is not actually a received transaction awaiting node processing, rather just the total of my wallet balances. How do I get my Armory wallet balances confirmed when there was no transaction sending the remaining balance there? I was going to try running Armory with "-rescan" but don't know how to do that - if that is a potential solution.

Quote If it's too complicated to include such a feature in GUI (for us regular folks) such that it would jeopardize the existing working code and possibly break it, then forget I mentioned it. But thanks just the same for your time replying to my query. GUI development is very time consuming, and GUI features such as pathing end up conflicting with the existing code which was never written with the intent to allow for modularity. On top of that, it is all in Python, which is particularly indisposed to the maintenance of expensive GUI code, so all in all, I put in the config setup cause it's the solution down the middle. When I have time and the appetite for it, I improve UX where I can. I do not often have that appetite. TLDR: technical debt.

BitcoinQT says it is up to date, and Armory says it is connected, but the blocks number doesn't change. A recent log is here: https://pastebin.com/y4RHwDLZ. It has "blkfile dir: D:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\blocks", which is what I have set Bitcoin-qt.exe to use, and when I go to that folder I can see files with recent timestamps, so I think Armory is using the same folder as Bitcoin.

Is there a specific sequence to force it to the full block height - thought that happened automatically with Armory left running and Bitcoin Core referenced in the background. Just tried closing Armory and opened Bitcoin Core and it is full synched. Then opened Armory and it is stuck at "Loading 100%".
Title: Re: Armory 0.96 is out Post by: Tim R on June 29, 2017, 05:50:25 PM No progress so closed both Armory and Bitcoin Core and restarted only Armory as usual with Bitcoin Core called up to run in the background. Will see if I get full block height this time when done - unless you or goatpig offer a alternate thought in the interim. If still not to full block height when done I will post logs in pastebin link again. Thanks.

It's still there, but posting the individual files is better, as the export option, while more accessible to the user, compounds both client and db logs together which makes it a bit harder on those who read through it. More often than not, only one of the logs is actually relevant to a given issue.

Is this something I should be able to click on? To allow for the use of segwit and compressed key in p2sh scripts, I developed a whole new wallet code. This stuff is in C++ and operates as companion code to the python stuff. The goal was to no disrupt the existing, time tested code, while providing new features for those willing to run new code. This flashing dialog is for the operation the mirrors the python wallet containers into their new, C++ implemented counterparts. These wallets are WO only, as they only need the data necessary to register the scripts with the DB and construct unsigned transactions. And no, there's nothing to click on, it is just there for report progress on the mirroring, and closes on its own. I figured I'd rather let people see something progress than silently mirror wallets, which can take up to a couple minutes on large wallets. You will see that dialog every run because you use an imported address, and the mirroring code goes through every import each run, since there is no deterministic way to verify the mirrored wallet is still in sync with the python counterpart. I'm not sure where to take that part of the GUI atm (if letting the dialog flash is ok, or requiring user interaction to close it is gonna piss off people real quick).

It is a common problem: Do you want to display a progress box, if you don't know how long the operation is going to take? Some programs delay popping up the dialog until a few seconds have passed. It can still pop up a fraction of a second before it closes, but now it is a lot less likely. Or you could put a 1-sec delay on closing it.
