Unable to sync wallets

[kblubaugh]

I have tried running several versions of Armory (93.6.3, 96.3.99, and others). Currently I can't get past the initial splash screen. When I was able to get 96.3 to load, I got an error message that something was wrong with my headers and that I could rebuild them. I ended up doing a complete download of the blockchain which took about a week. When it was complete, database was organized and rebuilt. The database synchronization was near completion and then an error message popped up suggesting submitting a ticket. The armorylog file is at Pastebin (Docgatorb), I'm using Bitcoin client 15.0.1 on Windows 10. CPU: Intel Pentium J2 900 @ 2.41 GHz. RAM 400 GB; 914 GB HDD with 269 GB free.

Thanks for your time.

You can't use 0.96.3 with Core 0.15.0.1. Use 0.96.4 RC1 or downgrade Core.

0.96.3 includes the incompatibility fix required for 0.15.0.1, so it can be used.

No that would be 0.96.4 RC1

Well, either way, I've used both and have generally been unable to get them to even load. 96.3 was the only one that actually loaded once and I already had bitcoin core 0.15.0.1 loaded. I downgraded bitcoin core and had to reformat the blocks and was nearly finished when windows 10 shutdown for an update. I'm thinking that I will switch to Ubuntu, which I use on a small computer for cold storage. I'm pretty fed up with Windows 10. I would like to keep bitcoin core running all the time, but when I occasionally sleep and let this stuff run, I have been rewarded with a windows shutdown.

Well, after all said, I had Bitcoin Core 0.15.0.1 already running, so I let it finish out, monitoring as it completed and regularly changing the 18 hour window when Windows won't abruptly shut everything down for an update. When it finished, I loaded Armory 93.99 (AKA 94) AND Everything did as it should. I can now make transactions! Now, if I can figure out the RBF settings so that I'm not sending more in fees than the transaction amount (even when making purchases greater then $100, which isn't really trivial). Now that the hard fork has been called off, I don't feel a need to move my bitcoin into anything else and will figure this out. Thank you to everyone, esp Goatpig, for putting so much effort into Amory!

It's on by default.
