shouldn't the server line include double quotes: "server": "localhost:50002:s",
don't turn off rbf. it's very useful. i have it exactly like this "server": "localhost:50002:s", Thanks! i ended up not turning off rbf. |

You should see one of the paths being /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages, navigate there and check if the dependencies are present. You can also try to purge the modules if needed: apt-get purge python3-pyqt5.
I dont have the exact same path as you mentioned, i get this output: ['', '/usr/local/lib/python39.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python3.9', '/usr/local/lib/python3.9/lib-dynload',
'/home/mint/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages', '/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages']But i went to /usr/lib/python3/ and there was a dist-packages folder with many other sub folders, I also went to /usr/local/lib there i have 2 phython folders, phython3.8 & phython 3.9. In the first one i have only dist-packages folder with many other sub folders, in the second one there are many folders but no dist-packages folder. In /home/mint/.local/lib/python3.9 i again have phythob 3.8 & 3.9 but there i have only site-packages folder with many other subfolders. I did not run purge command, i am afraid to purge something because i dont know how to reinstall after that. As you can guess by my messages i am unfamiliar with all these Linux commands and values. I guess will just use Electrum the way i managed to setup. Thanks a lot for your time |

The other file shows the various unit tests of Core passing, so you're all set!
Thanks for your help @NotATether!!! Try to save the output on directory owned by you, an example, mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > ~/output.txt
Thanks @ETFbitcoin ! This code gave me the same output as in my previous post https://pastebin.com/raw/fUs0Kh2RAnd it looks like all is ok, i assume that the error i get ( Error: in "streams_tests/streams_buffered_file": memory access violation at address: 0x00000000: no mapping at fault address) is insignificant. Previous commentator said that i am all set. |

Your pastebin shows a ton of errors about /tmp/test_common_Bitcoin/ files generating permission denied errors, can you try changing the ownership of that directory to your user too?
Please take a look is this what you are looking for? This is a test result copied from terminal https://pastebin.com/mueEPFdNThis is output.txt content (i deleted begging part of the text since it had a huge list of some sort of timestamp, juts lots of numbers [1;35;49m*[0;39;49m[1;35;49m...... etc.). https://pastebin.com/raw/fUs0Kh2R |

You have to restart your Ubuntu after the first pip installation for the path variables to take effect. I reproduced this with 21.04 and found Electrum to be correctly installed in ~/.local/bin but you can't execute it in terminal without first navigating to that. Restarting Ubuntu after the installation fixes this. I just installed Python 3.9.6 (its was 3.8 before) restarted then installed Electrum again running this command python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz it creates electrum file in ~/.local/bin, when i open terminal from this folder and run ./electrum i get this: mint@amint:~/.local/bin$ ./electrum
Error: at least one of ('pycryptodomex', 'cryptography') needs to be installed.Then i run this to install pycryptodomex $ sudo apt-get install build-essential python3-dev
$ pip install pycryptodomex and this $ pip install pycryptodomeBut running a test python3 -m Cryptodome.SelfTest tells me this: int@amint:~/.local/bin$ python3 -m Cryptodome.SelfTest
/usr/local/bin/python3: Error while finding module specification for 'Cryptodome.SelfTest' (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Cryptodome')
So installing with Electrum`s official code python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz creates Electrum file in ~/.local/bin which i cant use to launch Electrum. But as i mentioned in my first post when i run this code sudo pip3 install Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz it creates Electrum file in /usr/local/bin and when i insert it`s path in to desktop icon it launches Electrum wallet. Back to my original question, are these both commands python3 -m pip install --user & sudo pip3 do the same thing? python3 and pip3 are the same? are they both for installing Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz, just one does it for all users, the other for only one sudo user? And since the second command works for me, can i continue using Electrum installed that way, without compromising security or privacy? Will it work without conflicts with a setup i am planning to do: Core+Tor+Electrum+EPS+Trezor? update After many attempts installing and uninstalling electrum, then isntalling and updating python3, pip, pycryptodomex, pycryptodome and few others something happened to pyqt5. Before i could run Electrum without installing, just running it with command python3 Electrum-4.1.4/run_electrumNow i get errors: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5', Error: Could not import PyQt5 on Linux systems, you may try 'sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5Though i have latest Python 3.9.6 and ppip 21.1.3, and when i do as it says in error and run sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5 i see that i already have it: python3-pyqt5 is already the newest version (5.14.1+dfsg-3build1),0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.

Thank you all for your help.
I did as you guys said and managed to make values to stay this way
{
"blockchain_preferred_block": {
"hash": "0000000000156789g9c085aeg344t31e934ff74567hta2a6c172b3f1b89ghce26f",
"height": 0
},
"check_updates": false,
"config_version": 3,
"confirmed_only": true,
"gui_last_wallet": "/home/mint/.electrum/wallets/default_wallet",
"is_maximized": false,
"oneserver": true,
"recently_open": [
"/home/mint/.electrum/wallets/default_wallet"
],
"rpcpassword": "yjXdMfDFR546nyP7Uk67ujxw==",
"rpcuser": "user",
"show_channels_tab": true,
"skipmerklecheck": true
}
Red values are added by me, but no matter where i put other 2 values ("auto_connect": false, & "server": localhost:50002:s,) they disappear after launching electrum and erase all other manually added values.
But since i already have --oneserver --server localhost:50002:s in my shortcut i can use Electrum + EPS + Core without those 2 values, can i ?

Are you by any chance having any Electrum instances open while you're editing and saving the file?
No, i edit config file then i run Electrum, before editing i close Electrum. You already created a thread in " Beginners and Help" one hour ago ( link), there's no need to repost it. I believe it was moved to this board. I try to delete that post but get this message: "You cannot delete your own topics in this board" I have a reply to that thread, have you tried it already? You should just edit your config file's existing values into those list's values. Example: find " auto_connect" and set the value to " false", do the same to the rest. If it's not available, your can add it to the next line. Example: if " oneserver" isn't yet configured, add a line containing "oneserver": true, Note: Do not forget to add "," if it's not the last line or it will result with the same behavior. BTW, that happens when there's an error in the config file or if Electrum can't parse it. I tried adding values as you said, and i do it one by one, only "oneserver": true, stays, other values get lost after i start electrum. Looks like this values ls important for me as I run prune node. "skipmerklecheck": true, <-- this is important if your node is prunedI probably could ignore this value "server": "10.0.0.1:50002:s", <-- replace with your IP since my Electrum desktop icon already have this line --oneserver --server localhost:50002:s which i assume does the same. I am not sure with other 3 value below, do i need them to run Core+Tor+Electrum+EPS "auto_connect": false,
"confirmed_only": true,
"use_rbf": false |

You should try doing sudo rm output.txt or chown YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_USERNAME output.txt and then run the test script.
Doesnt work:( here are all command lines mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.txt
bash: output.txt: Permission denied
mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ sudo rm output.txt
[sudo] password for mint:
mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.txt
bash: output.txt: Permission denied
mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ chown mint:mint output.txt
chown: cannot access 'output.txt': No such file or directory
mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.txt
bash: output.txt: Permission denied
mint@amint:/usr/local/bin$ sudo ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.txt
bash: output.txt: Permission denied
Then i opened a bin folder as root, run ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.txt in order to create output.txt file. Then i exited from root, run a terminal as normal user and run sudo chown mint:mint output.txt ( i added sudo because without it i get a message: changing ownership of 'output.txt': Operation not permitted) after it i run ./test_bitcoin -p -r detailed > output.tx which gave me ouptut.txt file attached below https://pastebin.com/apqzTm11 |

Were you using a privileged command line or did you run it with sudo?
I run the command the exact way it was in Electrum`s instructions, python3 -m pip install So basically these both commands python3 -m pip install --user & sudo pip3 do the same thing? python3 and pip3 are the same, they both are installing Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz, just one does it for all users, the other for only one user? did i get it right? If so then why the fist command from Electrum`s website doesnt work form me? even if it installs for other users how come i dont have acccess to it? I am the only one user on my laptop. As i mentioned i am very new to Linux, can do things only if i have detailed instructions, |

Hi I just start using Linux (Mint 20.1 Cinnamon) i am newby in Linux and have no coding knowledge. I went to electrum.org and followed instruction for Installation from Python sources. It works as Appimage and by running without installation but not installing from python as described below. 1. Install dependencies: sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5 libsecp256k1-0 python3-cryptography
2. Download package: wget https://download.electrum.org/4.1.4/Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz
3. Verify signatures: wget https://download.electrum.org/4.1.4/Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz.ThomasV.asc
4. gpg --verify Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz.ThomasV.asc Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz
5. wget https://download.electrum.org/4.1.4/Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz.sombernight_releasekey.asc
6. gpg --verify Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz.sombernight_releasekey.asc Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz
7. Run without installing: tar -xvf Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz
8. python3 Electrum-4.1.4/run_electrum
9. Install with PIP: sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pip
10.python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz
All commands go trough and i get a message in terminal saying installation was successful, but there is no electrum folder in local/bin and when i try to uninstall electrum (sudo pip3 uninstall electrum) to start over, i get message saying that can not uninstall since electrum is not installed. But when instead of last code python3 -m pip install --user Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz i use this code sudo pip3 install Electrum-4.1.4.tar.gz it works, it creates electrum folder in local/bin and after creating desctop icon as it is described here https://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/install-electrum-on-linux/ i am able to launch Electrum. I want to ask if its ok changing command " python3 -m pip install --user" to command " sudo pip3 install" ? Can i continue using Electrum installed the way i did, dont i compromise security or privacy? |

Did you share wrong file? It's log of running the test as root, not as normal user.
When running as a normal user with and without sudo i have this message: bash: output.txt: Permission denied |

Hi Im on Linux Mint 20.1 Cinnamon, i want to setup Electrum to run over EPS, now i have to edit config file to add following as it was described here https://curiosityoverflow.xyz/posts/bitcoin-electrum-wallet/#tor-configuration{ "auto_connect": false,
"oneserver": true,
"confirmed_only": true,
"server": localhost:50002:s
"skipmerklecheck": true, <-- this is important if your node is pruned
"use_rbf": false }I also added this in command line of my desktop icon --oneserver --server localhost:50002:s Now when i edit config file, i save it then close, i start Electrum and all my changes in config file get lost. How can edit it and save permanently? |

Last question if i may, while investigating this issue i found a fatal error by running /test_bitcoin command and it is still there even after fixing the initial issue, i just want to make sure this error doesn't compromise my privacy or security when i use bitcoin-qt Below is my original post" I also run a command /usr/local/bin$ ./test_bitcoin from bin folder of version 0.21.1 and received this error, maybe it has something to do with my initial issue? or i can ignore it /usr/local/bin$ Running 445 test cases... unknown location(0): fatal error: in "streams_tests/streams_buffered_file": memory access violation at address: 0x00000000: no mapping at fault addresstest/streams_tests.cpp(205): last checkpoint: "streams_buffered_file" test entry *** 1 failure is detected in the test module "Bitcoin Core Test Suite" |

It worked !!!! Thanks A lot everyone for your help To summarize and make it easier for those newbies like me who bump in to similar issue with extra large Bitcoin_qt interface do the following: Go to the folder wherever you have your bitcoin core`s bin folder, open up a terminal from there and launch the bitcoin-qt with this code QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 ./bitcoin-qt If you already have a bitcoin core icon you need to modify it to add this code and when you want to run bitcoin core next time, just click on the icon instead of launching from terminal. Right-click on the icon, then click Properties. On the command input box, fill it with: Code: env QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 ./bitcoin-qt If that doesn't work try using this: Code: env QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 bitcoin-qt |
|
|

Here is the output $ xrandr | head -n1
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
$ xdpyinfo | head -n5
name of display: :0
version number: 11.0
vendor string: The X.Org Foundation
vendor release number: 12009000
X.Org version: 1.20.9
I run this code and it fixed the issue QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 ./bitcoin-qt But if i run Core from created icon i still have the issue. Looks like i found a solution to make this permanent fix but since i am not familiar with Linux, dont know how to do it, will you please explain how to do it? Just modify your menu-entry accordingly or add export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 to your ~/.profile to have this apply to all Qt apps.
PS: If you need to scale your two screens separately you can do that as well, e.g. QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1;1.5 |

I can resize it just a little but it doesn’t make it useful anyhow. I run -resetguisettings in console of Core but looks like there is no such command, i googled about it and found very similar topic to my issue on https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/0.21.0/Under issue: gui#102 Fix SplashScreen crash when run with -disablewallet (hebasto) It takes to this website https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui/pull/116Where they refer to another topics with similar issues where it was solved, but it seems there is no clear answer on what to do exactly to fix this bug, im very new to Linux and know only basic codes which i can use only if there are instructions. |
