Cannot start node after syncing blocks from windows

[xenostar]

Im trying to get a node going on a raspberry pi 2 and synced the blockchain on my windows box after getting fedup with the pi taking weeks to sync.

I used paragon ext2fs to copy the blocks and chainstate directories to my /home/pi/.bitcoin dir on my SD card.

Upon running bitcoind I get the following output:

http://pastebin.com/6m0UXiJF

At first it couldnt open LevelDB saying permission denied and i noticed that the dir's were owned by root.root. So I did 'sudo chown pi:pi -R *' while in the .bitcoin dir and got the LevelDB permission error gone, but now its doing the same thing just later saying "Error opening block database." and wont allow me to rebuild if I do bitcoind -reindex

Could someone please let me know what I can do to correct the situation and get this running?

thanks!

I bet, that you still have problems with permissions (based on my experience, it is cause of majority linux "problems")

can you please send here output from:

Code:

ls -la /home/pi/.bitcoin/blocks/index

Oops, I accidentally stated root.root in OP, but it was really supposed to be pi:pi

All files are owned by pi.

BTW I think I have it fixed thanks to:

https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=48958

Which covers permissions and ownership very thoroughly.

Now im retransferring the BC and will hopefully have this resolved.
