exception in bitcoin.exe

[spiccioli]

Hi,

I've got a bitcoin 0.4.0 on win32 (windows xp) used as a server, there are 10 to 20 clients which reach it.

Here its .conf  file:

server=1
rpcuser=XXXXX
rpcpassword=YYYYY
rpcallowip=*

it dies from time to time with this exception:



edit: click on the image to see it in full.

BTW,

the fact that it shows a dialog with the error makes it impossibile to auto-restart it when it dies.

Hi again,

I don't know if this is a known fact, but pressing Ctrl+C on a bitcoind.exe running inside a console on win32 throws an exception:

C:\Programmi\Bitcoin\daemon>bitcoind
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'DbException'
  what():  DbEnv::close: Invalid argument

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


Best regards.

Ctrl+C is a common interupt. I assume bitcoind tries to exit without doing cleanup.

Hi,

same problem with 0.5.0-qt, this version, though, does not leave any info about the exception, neither inside debug.log nor inside windows event log.
