Connected (False blocks)

[clanie]

Does anyone know what the "Connected (False blocks)" text displayed in bottom right corner of Armorys main window mean?
Especially the "False blocks" puzzles me.

Code:

for a in range(0, 2):
	if a:
		print("True!");
	else:
		print("False!");

Returns:-

Code:

False!
True!

Is that supposed to answer something

Yes. Answer to your question, you have zero blocks, zero is considered as false, so, you have false blocks.

At-least, that's my opinion as a non-python programmer.

Ahh... ok, thanks. So everyone else has a block-count displayed there?

I have bitcoin-qt running, blockchain fully downloaded, Armory is done scanning transactions and is displaying balances and transactions etc, so I didn't associate it with a block count as I would expect that to be much higher than 0/False.

Like I said, I don't actually code in python, so, I'm just guessing.

Sounds very plausible, so you are probably right.

Normally, it says 0 blocks.  0 and False are different object in Python, although they both have the truth value false.

If it says False blocks, then it could be a symptom of something returning False as an error condition.  Sounds strange.

I have the same error resulting in the failure to send bitcoins. (running Windows 8.1 64 bit. Bitcoin Qt/Core upgraded and synced)
Is the cause and solution of this problem known ?

For me an upgrade solved it. Version 0.90 I think.

rescanning/rebuilding also solved it for me.

Sorry for the bump. I just had the same problem (0.92.3), among many other problems I get with the armory every 2 weeks or so (sigh). A simple restart of the client fixed it for me. Don't rebuild/rescan before you restart.

After an hour or so I have the same problem, I'll have to rebuild too
