Can't send Bitcoin from Armory

[eviljedi]

I have Bitcoin Core version 0.14.2 and Armory version 0.96.1 (had the same with 0.96)

Armory is connected and showing 479708 blocks (same as Bitcoin Core)
I have tried with different fees going really high and it didn't help.

After I complete the sending the message appears:
"The transaction that you just attempted to broadcast has timed out.
The RPC interface of your node is disabled, therefor Armory cannot use it to gather more information about the timeout. It is recommended that you enable the RPC and try again."

What do you suggest me to try first?
Should I post logs?

[goatpig]

Enable the RPC.

[eviljedi]

 I am not an expert user, should have mentioned that before!

So how exactly can I do that? I went trough the Bitcoin Core settings, and did not find anything.
I know what RPC means, but not much more than that. And Google isn't much help either.

Create a file named bitcoin.conf in your bitcoin datadir and put this in it:

Code:

server=1

Create a file named bitcoin.conf in your bitcoin datadir and put this in it:

Code:

server=1

Did this, no changes!

Bitcoin datadir is where I downloaded the blockchain (137 GB folder), right?

[goatpig]

The folder where your /blocks folder resides. Is the bottom right corner message green or purple? If it's purple, you have not done this properly. You also need to restart your node after doing this.

It's green, if you mean the color where the number of blocks are displayed. And I have restarted Core and Armory every time I have tried something new.

[eviljedi]

Still unsolved!
Anyone? What else can I try?

Need to see your log files in full.

I had the exact same problem as described here (which somehow appeared even though Armory was working fine previously) and solved it as follows, it might be of use here.

Bitcoin Core is installed on my C-drive but the blockchain is located on the D-drive. I don't know exactly which bitcoin.conf file gets referenced and when but in the version saved in C:\Windows(C:)\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin I added -datadir="d:\bitcoin" to intruct Bitcoin Core to use the directory indicated for saving the block chain.

Then, when trying to solve the problem described above I first added server=1 to the bitcoin.conf file on the C-Drive but then realised I had to add that particular statement to the bitcoin.conf saved in d:\bitcoin. This solved the issue.

Otherwise, when I start Armory I first start Bitcoin Core, then ArmoryDB which points to the blockchain on the D drive, and finally ArmoryQt. I let Bitcoin Core load completely and get up to date before launching Armory. And check to see the "RPC connection established" message in the ArmoryDb console. Without that RPC will be disabled in ArmoryQt...

That's not exactly full, but before these worked fine. Pastebin couldn't fit it without PRO account.
If it's not enough please let me know.

[eviljedi]

Solved!

Solved!

That's great... but not terribly useful... Are you able to explain how you managed to solve your issue so that others might be able to solve the problem if they have similar issues in the future?

[eviljedi]

Not really! Honestly I just gave up on Armory and didn't want anyone else wasting time on analyzing my logs.
I sweeped my private keys to a different wallet.

Seems I'm having the same issue.  The blocks listed in the bottom right of my Armory window are 480768 and they are in grey.  Running Armory in Windows 10.  Says I'm synced and wallet is loaded.  About to force it to rebuild and rescan.

What is the current number of blocks in your Bitcoin Core (look in "Help -> Debug Window -> Information")? It would also be helpful if you posted the logs from Armory (dbLog.txt and armorylog.txt)... As always, post to pastebin.com and then just post the links here.

[Mr Grinch]

481055 blocks in Core and 481027 in Armory.  Armory only seems to get to the "Online" portion where I can see my balance IF it is behind a few blocks.  Otherwise ArmoryQT or ArmoryDB crashes.

Also should I have core running before/while Armory is running or are they independent only sharing the blockchain info?
I also get a notice "Connection to Bitcoin Core lost" nearly EVERY time I start Armory.

I had this, it seems to be down to RPC disabled, it has disabled itself somehow. I don't know how to enable it, I'm currently in the process of installing armory on another machine and lettign it download the blockchain again. Then I plan to restore from the paper backup.
Unless someone knows how to enable RPC without blowing my mind!

My payment randomly verified after 4 days even after I cleared unconfirmed and had it in my wallet.

hello, I am suffering from the same issue. Every time I try to send bitcoins from my wallet in armory I get the error of "tx broadcast timed out." It is stating that I should try to increase the fee, which i have done up to 0.001 bitcoin with the message still persisting.

I am on a 64 bit windows 8 computer
using armory 0.96
and bitcoin core 0.15.1

What can I do to solve this problem?
