Title: Armory 0.90 offline wallet issues (condensed version)
Post by: Armory0.90issues on August 13, 2017, 02:48:02 PM
Armory 0.90-beta running on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my air-gapped computer was unable to sign transactions created by Armory 0.93.2 on my Internet connected computer, so I tried to update the Armory version on the air-gapped computer to Armory 0.93.3 for Ubuntu 12.04+ (32bit) and ran into a "dependency is not satisfiable: python-qt4" error.

Now I can't get the Armory wallet on the air-gapped computer to launch anymore, and I'm unable to find where the error logs are stored in the Ubuntu file system (or else I would have them posted below) relevant error logs are available at https://pastebin.com/vcdyVCZA.  

Hoping someone here can help me get the offline wallet up and running so I can sign some transactions - thanks in advance.

home/.armory

When in /home enable 'view hidden files'

Armory wont run without those dependencies. You either download and install them all manually via usb stick, or put it online and update everything.

Thanks jefferson7 - viewing hidden files did the trick.  The error logs for yesterday are here:

Thanks again jefferson7 - can you elaborate on the dependency I need and, if possible, where I can find it?

You should install the offline bundle which you can get from https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/releases/tag/v0.93.3. The offline bundles contain all of the packages that Armory depends on so those will be installed as well.

Thanks achow101 - I copied the .tar.gz file to my air-gapped computer via a USB key.  However, I'm unable to get it to install.  When I open the Install_DoubleClick_RunInTerminal.sh file, I get what looks like a text file with the following:

#! /bin/bash

sudo dpkg -i *.deb


I tried entering the sudo dpkg -i *.deb command into the terminal, but received the following message:

dpkg: error processing *.deb (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
 *.deb


I apologize if this is elementary linux stuff - I've only ever worked with linux to install this offline armory wallet, and this is all very foreign to me. 

I really appreciate your time on this.

achow101 - please disregard my last post.

For those reading this in the future who are equally linux-ignorant as myself, you need to extract the tar.gz file (e.g., to your desktop), and then open the resulting OfflineBundle folder, double click on the Install_DoubleClick_RunInTerminal.sh file, and select "Run in Terminal".  That will install the 0.93.3 Armory version.  I used that version of Armory to sign a transaction created by the 0.93.2 Armory version on my Internet connected computer, and it just cleared.

achow101 and jefferson7 - if you post an address in this thread I'll buy you each a few beers.

Ha - I probably should have checked that first.
