So even if I don't use --dbdir to choose an alternate db folder Armory 0.94.1 will not use the old directory, e.g.: "databases"?

It will use the default folder lacking any specific CLI arg, i.e ~/.armory/databases

OK, so the recommended procedure when upgrading to 0.94.1 is to manually delete the old databases, right? Otherwise we would have in the same folder the ~70GB db together with the ~120MB one....

One question about key-stretching: which algorithm are you using? ROMix? Scrypt?

ROMix I believe.
May I ask who is in charge of mantaining that part of the code?

Installed 0.94.1 with an alternative folder for the db (--dbdir) and all is well.  If i drop the --dbdir argument it will re-build the new ~120MB db in the default folder and delete de old ~70GB one - correct?
It won't delete the old one; you will have to find it and delete it manually.

No I meant picking Rebuild & Rescan in Armory's Help menu...

what exactly is that command doing?  is it working on just the Armory DB or Bitcoin's DB or both?

Do a rebuild & rescan

would that be:

bitcoind -reindex and then bitcoind -rescan?

do both?

new problem:

upon opening Armory 0.94.1, wallet consistency check starts fine but then:

1.  Sync blocks-OK
2.  Building Database-OK
3.  Scanning Transaction History-GUI shuts down (closes)

any ideas?  Armory is set to manage bitcoind.

Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS

edit:  was working fine until i added 1000 addresses to one of the wallets.

Looks like it happens under certain (yet to be determined) conditions when the sender address is used as the change address. Will let you know when I figure out the bug and fix it.

I can't really tell how to do the bitcoin explorer addressing checking..

Is there a way to check the aggregate?

When I double click the withdrawl transactions, it comes up with the error.

"The transaction you requested be displayed does not exist in Armory's database. This is unusual..."

i have seen this error message too in my wallet:

"The transaction you requested be displayed does not exist in Armory's database. This is unusual..."[/i]

Thanks, it's best I sent a watching copy. It effects two wallet so it should be the same issue in both of those wallets. I send to you now.

I heard that it's dangerous and breaks the wallets.. I've got two.. hoping for a fix or something?

You have 3 possiblities:

1) Export keys to another wallet software.

2) Try to debug Armory yourself.

3) Identify the buggy wallet and send me a watching only copy to reproduce and debug on my own. You lose privacy but I get to fix the issue.

What is the latest downloadable build which is running on Win32? Will there be any interaction problems with 0.94.1?

Edit: Using a 32 bit Win system as offline device for signing.

0.92.x had x86 builds and is compatible with later versions. Otherwise you can build 0.94.x in x86, that will run just fine. Not sure about XP though.

No you'll be fine as long as you don't share the keys. You can't lose anything by importing.

Also, post an address and what it is supposed to have if possible.
