Armory "Node Offline (556393 blocks)"

[matikwin]

Hi,

I can't seem to work out why Armory says it is offline. Would somebody be kind enough to help me figure this out please?

Armory 0.96-beta-a3d01aa722
Bitcoin Core version v0.17.0.1 (64-bit)

firstly get Armory 0.96.5 from https://btcarmory.com

[matikwin]

Thanks Carlton.

Downloaded, but now I'm not pathing correctly for the database to prepare. I've been through the Armory pathing pages but I can't seem to do it. My Core Node is all on an external hard drive, but Armory is local on C:/

Any ideas?...

Heres the log...

There's your problem.

1. Click File > Settings in Armory
2. Uncheck box "Let Armory run Bitcoin in the background"


Start Bitcoin before Armory. Do not start Armory until Bitcoin has finished syncing

[matikwin]

Yeah, I didn't quite have the pathing correct either. Thank you for your help.
