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 08:24:52 (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
