I understand that this brings no benefit to those of us who are already using tor, correct? "Using tor" like in: onion=127.0.0.1:443 externalip=bk5ejfe56xakvtkk.onion listen=1 I want to continue doing it manually. Will these settings give me back control? I didn't touch it, and connectivity is still there: $ torsocks telnet bk5ejfe56xakvtkk.onion 8333 Trying 127.42.42.0... Connected to bk5ejfe56xakvtkk.onion. Escape character is '^]'. So I'm not touching it either ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Something has been trying to connect to my tor over port 80 and I think it might have started at .12 beta
x 23:57:04 [WARN] Socks version 80 not recognized. (Tor is not an http proxy.) x [3504334 duplicates hidden]

edit.... why there is still not the digital sign for the exe? it's not good when i click on the exe and it say that is not safe, it can discourage newbie...
digital sign cost like hundred dollars, not so much
Not sure what you mean that it isn't signed. It looks signed to me. the exe is not signed, try to launch it in windows and you will see the usual alert message also, to enable pruning i must remove the blockchain data first? i thought when enabling it he just delete all data if MB = 0

we have the maxmempool setting.It is really a great improvement and i love this core version with advanced new features as well. i aould suggest for ever one to use it and tell if anything more is needed for more better options for all users. I am going to like it so far. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fimagizer.imageshack.us%2Fa%2Fimg921%2F7538%2FaDyRBo.png&t=665&c=KjSU8V59JNXhFw)

With 0.11.2 I was getting what seemed to be a fragmented heap after running for weeks non-stop with a high number of connections. The workaround was a weekly restart. Let's see if this problem is fixed.

Having issues with my 0.12 node ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) It shut itself down during the night, just booted it up now and it says the block database is corrupted... It's checking blocks now, let's see how this goes. Wierd that this happened after updating and not right away, still trying to figure out what's happening.

Core crashed and I booted it back up and had a corrupted database, so I told it to rebuild and it crashed again. Then it wouldn't get past the loading screen without crashing, so I deleted everything in my \Bitcoin\ directory and reinstalled Core 0.12 and the same thing kept happening, crash at the loading screen. I tried installing my \Bitcoin\ directory on another physical drive and still same thing happened. After deleting and reinstalling about 5 times it finally booted up and started syncing again. I think this is my computer telling me it's too old for this sh.t any more.

So v0.12 is a total bust for me. It crashed once more and I cannot get it to start up no matter what. It sometimes makes it to "checking addresses" on the loading screen, but never any further. Sometimes it crashes as soon as the loading screen appears. I went back to 0.11.2 and it loads just find so it is a bug specific to 0.12. Here are a few of my logs from the crashes, you can see the program just stops with no indication of any sort of error. 2016-02-26 15:14:47 Bitcoin version v0.12.0 (2016-02-17 09:40:03 +0100) 2016-02-26 15:14:47 InitParameterInteraction: parameter interaction: -whitelistforcerelay=1 -> setting -whitelistrelay=1 2016-02-26 15:14:47 GUI: registerShutdownBlockReason: GetProcAddress for ShutdownBlockReasonCreate failed 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using OpenSSL version OpenSSL 1.0.1k 8 Jan 2015 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using BerkeleyDB version Berkeley DB 4.8.30: (April 9, 2010) 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Default data directory [editted out] 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using data directory [editted out] 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using config file [editted out] 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using at most 125 connections (2048 file descriptors available) 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using 2 threads for script verification 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Using wallet wallet.dat 2016-02-26 15:14:48 scheduler thread start 2016-02-26 15:14:48 init message: Verifying wallet... 2016-02-26 15:14:48 CDBEnv::Open: LogDir=[editted out] ErrorFile=[editted out] 2016-02-26 15:14:48 Error: Couldn't open socket for incoming connections (socket returned error An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.

So no one else experienced the "0.12.0 won't start up" problem like I have? It's a weird issue that only affects 0.12 and I can't understand it.
So I am still running 0.11.2, and I minimized it to the taskbar, however the taskbar icon disappeared and now I cannot bring core up. bitcoin-qt.exe is still running per my task manager, and my node is still up per bitnodes, but I guess I'll just have to wait for the program to crash (like it always does) before I can get the gui up again.

You should probably take this to another thread. Anyways, what OS are you using and what are the specs of your system?

It's an older computer I built years ago, still runs XP. The OS could be an issue, but I doubt the hardware is (decent proc, plenty of RAM and hd space). One of these days I'll get around to building a new machine. I also need to turn my old laptop into a Linux machine, that would be the one to run my node ideally I think. But in the mean time I would love some ideas what was changed in 0.12 that now makes it unusable on my computer.

The problem is XP. There are known problems with 0.12 with XP. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/7674 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/7639. However i don't think it will be fixed since XP support from Microsoft has ended and thus fixing an XP only problem is not worth it to the core devs. See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/7681 for the discussion about that.

Perfect, that is exactly my issue. Thanks for sharing the link, I'll follow that and see what develops. There are still so many XP users out there that it would be a shame if bitcoin core was not longer able to be run on it.

If I were a core developer I wouldn't care about any people using Windows XP and reporting problems. Sorry but XP is a security risk from my pov and EOL since nearly 2 Years! For some people hard but the truth...

I've never had an issue with the new version. I used to get my blockchain corrupted in the past for some reason, now it's never happened again. It boots so much faster too. Probably the best release yet.
I want to know what is the best -dbcache to use depending on your ram tho, to see if I can make it sync faster.
