I updated the litecoin wallet when the alert started popping up and from that day it kept crashing and it won't start.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Hey guys

I had this exact same issue until i obtain some help from Warren Togami Jr over at the LTC forums.
My problem was that my previous OSX 10.5 did not run the new LTC update without crashing after a short while.

I've since upgraded my OSX to 10.6 and my LTC client runs fine just like how it did before the update.

Hope this helps.

It seems that the build was made on MacOS X 10.6.x.  It was unexpected that anyone would attempt to use it on MacOS X 10.5.x.  The patch seemed to indicate that it was for a different socket error than what you had reported in debug.log.  There is also no guarantee that the crash is caused by that socket error.  It could be something else entirely.

As noted earlier, that socket error happens very often in my 0.6.9.2 Linux debug.log and there are no crashes there.

I am afraid unless Rama has any ideas, we must declare MacOS X 10.5.x unsupported.  You are using a very old operating system from 2007.  It appears that your options are:

1) Restore your 0.6.x backup data and run the old 0.6.3 version, which will likely remain compatible for a while longer despite warnings to the contrary.
2) Upgrade your MacOS X to a newer version.  Snow Leopard is now available for only $30.

I am sorry we do not have a solution for your problem.

any idea on how to fix the extremely slow reindex of block chain for the newest update in OSX Lion? Read something about changing a -dbcache but no luck in finding that anywhere

Faster Block Sync or ReindexingThe first time you run Litecoin 0.8.x it is necessary to reindex your old 0.6 blockchain or obtain all blocks and index it from scratch. You may make this a lot faster by running litecoin-qt or litecoind with all the -dbcache=X parameter, wherever X is often a number in megabytes you intend to dedicate on the dbcache. The default is 25MB that’s fine for normal operation, but your reindexing from the complete blockchain could be much faster should you give it an increased number like 500 or 1000. Currently Litecoin 0.8.3.7 without -dbcache needs to as much as 400MB of RAM, so be cautious to provide dbcache at the level that avoids swapping that’ll hurt performance. Remove -dbcache soon after your 0.8 is fully upgraded and synchronized while when using the blockchain to relieve your memory requirements.
