Title: An error in the 0.3.24 version for Mac (OS X 10.6.8) Post by: Patrick on August 31, 2011, 08:38:05 PM Hi all,
I backed up my wallet to a separate, encrypted volume (a .dmg file), and removed the ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin directory and replaced it with a link to /Volume/Bitcoin (the new volume) as per the wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Talk:Securing_your_wallet). Now, when I try to open Bitcoin, I get an Exception error, which looks like this: Code: EXCEPTION: Any ideas on what's going on? The image/volume has been mounted each time I've tried to open the bitcoin client. Thanks, -Patrick Title: Re: An error in the 0.3.24 version for Mac (OS X 10.6.8) Post by: Patrick on September 22, 2011, 08:05:49 PM Bump! :)
Just wanted to bring this back up to the top, just in case someone else is having this problem or knows of a solution. -Patrick Title: Re: An error in the 0.3.24 version for Mac (OS X 10.6.8) Post by: Patrick on September 23, 2011, 05:02:32 AM Thanks for the reply!
However, I tried using the command you posted and I'm still getting the same error. Very frustrating :( Thanks for attempting to help, though!

Code: open /Applications/Bitcoin.app --args -datadir=/Volumes/Bitcoin Title: Re: An error in the 0.3.24 version for Mac (OS X 10.6.8) Post by: Patrick on September 23, 2011, 05:18:32 PM I tried opening it from the terminal with both -datadir=/Volumes/Bitcoin and -datadir=/Volumes/Bitcoin/ and neither worked. Same error again :(
Maybe upgrading to 0.4 will fix this? -Patrick |
