Unless you are running a x86 OS or you have low RAM and disabled the swap (or actually managed to fill swap partition), you can't get a bad_alloc for running out of physical RAM. This is all virtual address space, the underlying actual RAM isn't all that relevant. bad_alloc appears when the OS fails to allocate memory. This is more often the case when a bogus amount of memory is requested (say unserializing a random chunck of 9 bytes as a varInt and allocating that absurd number) than actually exhausting all RAM on the system. If you suspect it is actually how much memory you have available on your system, you should try and reduce the RAM Armory uses instead of increasing yours: https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/blob/master/cppForSwig/BlockchainScanner.h#L96Set this value to 2 to cut the memory use in half, then make clean make It's currently tuned to run at around 1GB.

Should I bitcoind -reindex? Bitcoin Core (0.12) runs fine on its own though.

Yes. This is a deser error, that's unmistakably corrupted block data.

Yes. This is a deser error, that's unmistakably corrupted block data. I have done the reindex, and - since the error persisted - removed the blocks, chainstate and database folders of bicoind.

@Newar
are you sure that Armory is using the correct directory for .armory? it's currently in /root/, which implies you installed 0.94 while logged in as the root user? Can you try rebuilding the 0.94 db? (delete .armory/databases) It's possible that whichever erroneous contents in your previous copy of the Bitcoin blockchain also made it's way into the Armory databases, and so the tx scanning stage for Armory is essentially detecting that mismatch.

-INFO - 1461221902: (DatabaseBuilder.cpp:195) Found 378432 headers in db As Carlton suspects, you are using a fresh copy of the blockchain over a preexisting DB. Delete that DB, let Armory start from scratch.

I've been using Armory for a couple years now. I'm 'techie-light' so please bare with me & apologies if this has already been answered. System: OS - Ubuntu 15.1 15Gb real memory 15Gb virtual memory Initially I installed 0.94.1 on top of 0.93.1 using the Git clone + make + make install instructions. That resulted in the Armory GUI showing a successful Wallet consistency check + successful Bitcoin Engine init; then the GUI turned grey and I got a program not responding message requiring a manual close which left Bitcoind running but no Armory process running. I then uninstalled Armory leaving the settings as was and re-installed. Result: As above except that, instead of the GUI freezing, it simply disappears. All looks fine in the log (to me anyway - ie no errors) until the last few lines as follows: 2016-04-22 10:44 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5812 - Dashboard switched to auto-InitSync 2016-04-22 10:44 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:2498 - loadBlockchainIfNecessary 2016-04-22 10:44 (ERROR) -- ArmoryQt.py:1336 - 4 attempts to load blockchain failed.

You can't use the same DB as 0.93 for 0.94. Point to another folder using the --dbdir command line argument

Thanks gp. I renamed the 93.1 db folder then created a new one with standard name. All purring along fine now. If all remains well, I'll delete the old one in a day or two and get back 60+Gb of space

Another daft question:
How do I get the Armory icon to show on the launcher? - that's using the standard Ubuntu Gnome GUI
At present the launcher shows a grey '?'. Otherwise everything working fine.

I just upgraded 2 of my Armory instances and have had no issues so far. I just love seeing my used space cut in half with the new database setup. goatpig, would you like a free Silver Wallet for being cool enough to keep Armory going? -> http://silverwallets.com/
