Dear friends,

new to Armory but have some PC-Knowledge. Nevertheless I am not able to get Armory at Windows 10 Pro 1709 (Build 16299.125) online.
Here step by step, what I have already done:

  • Downloaded and installed latest Armory from bitcoinarmory.com (0.96.3-beta-2b65ac0648) and created a wallet
  • Downloaded, installed and synchronised (about 6 hours) Bitcoin Core from bitcoin.org/de/download (v 0.15.1 - 64 Bit)
  • Moved folder 'Bitcoin' from c:\Programme\Bitcoin to c:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin
  • Deleted 'databases' folder (was empty) within Armory instal dir (hint found here)
  • startet 'bitcoin-qt.exe' manually and also 'bitcoind.exe' and 'bitcoin-cli.exe' to test (hint found here)
  • Set properties from Armory-Client (Checkbox 'Let Armory run...') and also set two dirs: Instal and Home dir to C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin (But testet also without these dirs)

My Armory Client has only one register called 'Dashboard' and within I can see two bars 'Preparing Databases' and beneath 'Scan Transaction History'.
On the bottom right corner stands 'Offline' in brown letters.

My latest logfile says (Warning and Error only):

2017-12-26 08:24:44 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:509 - bitcoind exited, bitcoind STDOUT:
2017-12-26 08:24:44 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:511 -
2017-12-26 08:24:44 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:512 - bitcoind exited, bitcoind STDERR:
2017-12-26 08:24:44 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:514 -
2017-12-26 08:24:52 (WARNING) -- SDM.pyc:439 - Spawning bitcoind with command: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\daemon\bitcoind.exe -datadir=C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin
2017-12-26 08:24:52 (ERROR) -- BDM.pyc:199 - DB error: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming/Bitcoin/blocks is not a valid path

I can see here both, slash and backslash in the DB path! Is that correct?


I am extremely missing a 'How to setup' or 'First instal' section. The Video-Help files are old and not helpful.


Thank you all in advance for your help,
Vincent from Germany

Dear goatpig,

TY for the reply.
After I went out for some hours and came back I startet my PC.

Suddenly Armory begun to replic its database... now, after some minutes the client ist online and connected.
I din't changed anything!

I Don't know why but it's ok...

TY and kind regards,

Vincent
