I think the following might fix the crash:

Code:
diff --git a/cppForSwig/BlockUtils.cpp b/cppForSwig/BlockUtils.cpp
index 2b08f5e..bf270bf 100644
--- a/cppForSwig/BlockUtils.cpp
+++ b/cppForSwig/BlockUtils.cpp
@@ -2535,6 +2535,7 @@ uint32_t BlockDataManager_FileRefs::parseEntireBlockchain( string   blkdir,
             bsb.reader().advance(nextBlkSize);
          }
       }
+      globalCache.openFile(fnum-1, blkfile);
       TIMER_STOP("ScanBlockchain");
 
    }

i.e. re-open the file after loading its contents, causing the value in fileSizes_ to be updated in the event that the blockchain data file has grown while being read.

I don't see how that would prevent the crash while loading the blockchain that I saw once, but I'm hoping it will fix the much more common crash while looping through the blocks.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Edit: Here's output from the loading the blockchain with a couple of extra print statements to show the cached file sizes:

Quote

But it looks like you got the crash somewhere relevant before.

I just had it crash again, after the initial blockchain load, and well into looping through the blocks.

At the time of the crash, my blockchain file sizes are like this:

Quote
 -rw-------  1 chris chris 2 097 307 549 Jul 12 20:07 blk0001.dat
 -rw-------  1 chris chris   251 261 998 Jul 29 15:35 blk0002.dat

And the line that causes the crash is:

Quote
     if( cidx >= openFiles_.size() || cstart + cbytes > fileSizes_[cidx] )

According to gdb, at the time of the crash:

Quote
(gdb) p fileSizes_[cidx]
$8 = (unsigned int &) @0xf78854: 251 117 353
(gdb) p cstart
$9 = 251 225 041

So the problem seems to be caused by the code trying to retrieve from a block which has arrived since the blockchain was initially loaded.

Can you think of a reason that might be happening?  How would the Armory code know about the newly arrived block?  Are you loading the blkindex.dat at all?  That could be an explanation if the blkindex.dat is out of sync with the blk00*.dat files, but I'm not seeing you loading the index file at all.

Edit: I think the problem is caused when the blockchain files grow in size while being read.  The code caches the size of both files, then reads both files.  While reading the first file, there's plenty of time for the 2nd file to grow, ending up with blocks outside of the range defined by the file sizes that were cached.

Hi guys.

I met a problem.

I won the bet,but got not paid.

Could you please look at this bet of  http://satoshidice.com/full.php?tx=72b97a20c5cee0b9f05b5203d0361263edb41b752a15e2838ac2b3b6789f74c2 ?

Why the "Pay Status" is "UNKNOWN" ,When I won?

Is there any satoshidice staff? Help to deal with it for me please.

Thank you.

I expect what happened was that your winnings were paid out using the change from someone else's losing bet, and that their losing bet ended up never being confirmed.

There seem to be 8 bets which haven't been paid out after a reasonable length of time:

That's a lot better than it used to be - SatoshiDice seems to be working a lot better in general these days than it used to.  Hopefully FireDuck will look at these 8 bets and resolve them soon.

payb.tc runs bitcoinmax.com, which is a PPT but it's independent of GLBTSE.

From the horse's mouth:

i know that one of the things people like about bitcoin max is not having to deal with gblse, and i can totally understand that, because i don't want to either. i don't have an account there and it seems way too complicated, and to be honest, it seems like too much effort.

Retype your user name.

When reading from registry, I change the size so getting bogus characters, sorry.

That worked, thanks.  Actually I just deleted the junk from the end of my name rather than retyping it.

I ran PM Poker again.  It did an update.  Then it showed this screen:

I didn't type that long username - that's what it defaulted to.

Is that my new username?  Or should I change it back to 'dooglus'?

I left my username as it was, and typed in my password.

Several of them, just the number changes.

Interesting.  I'm using WINE (1.4-0ubuntu4.1) in Ubuntu (12.04, 64 bit) and don't have that issue.

What version of WINE and Ubuntu are you using?

However, if it doesn't crash at that conditional, I'll have to do some work to add some extra conditions and re-run the sample_armory_code.py script over and over until it crashes.   

I wanted it to crash while loading the blockchain.  So I put an infinite loop around the BDM_LoadBlockchainFile() call, and ran TheBDM.Reset() after each load so it would continually reload the blockchain.

I left it running overnight.  It loaded the blockchain 125 times but didn't trigger the breakpoint once.

I wonder what this guy is playing at:

He bets the same bet over and over in a single transaction.  It has the same result as if you bet just a single larger bet - only one 'lucky number' is picked per transaction.

Here's another lucky martingale escape which accounts for the last spike up and back down on the blue line:

Make sure to chronically the flipside too. The failures, though sad, are also entertaining... and can serve as a cautionary tale for others.

Here's a cautionary tale if ever I saw one:

1)  Patrick - you seem to be a guy with a good heart, i.e. not looking to scam people - but you are just too stupid to understand what is going on here.

You don't bring people over to your point of view by calling them stupid.

Incidentally, did you know that Patrick runs his own fund which currently pays 1.5% per week?
  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=61262.0

Does that qualify him for your list of scammers?

3)  anyone want to explain to me why the BS&T thread is locked?  can Pirate lock that thread at his whim? who authorizes that?  who runs bitcointalk.org? (sorry for newbie Q's, please answer me or PM me if you feel foolish answering publicly)

Anyone can lock any thread that they themselves started.  I think there's a link in the lower left corner of the page; you should see it on this thread.  There's no way for a thread's starter to control what other people say in their thread other than by locking the thread.  Maybe it's possible to ask moderators to delete individual posts, but that's time consuming, and I don't know how effective it is.

Pirate locked his thread when the "is it or isn't it a ponzi" posts swamped all the other posts in the thread.

2: This address was first charged some time in late January 2012. BS&T was set up in early November 2011 afaik (check here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50822.0). It is therefore in the correct time frame in order to belong to pirate's BS&T operation.

If pirate is somehow putting his lenders' coins to work to make 10% per week, they wouldn't be sitting in a single address for months at a time

If pirate is running a ponzi scheme, he wouldn't have this many coins since he has to pay out interest every week without any means of generating income other than from new deposits.  He 'should' have around this many coins, but by definition ponzi schemes don't have as much as they 'should'.

These two 'facts' suggest to me that these aren't pirate's coins.

I've never been into gambling, but after trying the php bot mentioned above (just because I think automating any task increase the coolness factor to over 9000) and winning more than 100% of the original value.. the temptation is so strong!
I'm not sure what's so special about SD... maybe the fast speed ensure the dope of adrenalin every few seconds Tongue

* Almost instant feedback
* Provably fair
* Low house edge

A winning combination.

Can you count those numbers ? The total is a losing player across all accounts, and I bet you probably have a few more that is even bigger losers.



I'll see if I can count them:

Code:
>>> -16259 - 11 +1222 +37031 -11272
10711

What's that?  The last loss is so big it doesn't fit in the box?

Code:
>>> -16259 - 11 +1222 +37031 -112725
-90742

Wow.  That's a lot of money to be losing at poker!
