Highly respected bitpop
I was struck by the depth of your knowledge on the Armory.
I admire your intellect.
All your answers are perfectly accurate.
Once you have helped me to overcome the problem of lack of space.
You are very careful and patient. You were able to bridge the language barrier.

Thank you very much. You are my dear friend !!

Move everything from armory/roaming to armory
Close armory first

First empty /armory except the roaming folder

I moved wallets from armory/roaming to armory... The rest of the files I did not touch.
Purses appeared.

I'm very sorry, but this is your phrase I do not understand First empty /armory except the roaming folder  .

Thank you very much.

No everything should be moved. Ok nevermind

If your wallets appear fine DELETE roaming then let it process

Good but it seems Bitcoin offline

You must start Bitcoin manually now

Also it looks like your wallets didn't get moved so it doesn't see them

No your settings are wrong. Use mine

Yes please set like this https://i.imgur.com/UNWmmnx.jpg
Start Bitcoin manually, did you create  a shortcut for the new path? Then start armory.

Bitcoin shortcut C:\Users\Bitpop\Desktop\bitcoin-0.9.3-win\64\bitcoin-qt.exe -datadir=F:\Bitcoin

Armory shortcut "C:\Program Files (x86)\Armory\ArmoryQt.exe" --satoshi-datadir=F:\Bitcoin --datadir=F:\Armory --dbdir=F:\Armory

Disable torrent download in armory then delete bootstrap.dat

Excuse me please, but I do not understand why I need to remove bootstrap.dat
 Armory pumped bootstrap.dat all night?

It shouldn't have downloaded it since you already have Bitcoin Blockchain correct?

It's hard to answer your question, because I am a novice user and I do not understand well enough what and why Armory downloads.

I dragged a folder databases manually from drive C: to drive I: .
because I have understood these instructions so.  https://bitcoinarmory.com/troubleshooting/#q5

because I did not want to Armory downloaded chain blocks again. However Armory uploaded chain again (I think) and tripled the volume of data. Please tell me what do I remove the extra data?
Thanks in advance.

Armory doubles the Bitcoin data use.

Dear bitpop,
I fulfilled your instructions.
Please tell me why Armory triple the volume of data for me?

I got it working finally.  Thanks for your help bitpop.

FYI 0.92 is the necessary version required.
Quote
Since Armory version 0.92 the formats for offline transaction operations has changed to accommodate multi-signature transactions.  This format is not compatible with versions of Armory before 0.92.

If anybody else running Ubuntu 12.04 is in the same boat, here's where I found all of my dependencies.

I recently updated my online machine to 0.92.3 and was wondering if there is any need, or there will ever be a need to update the software on my offline computer.  I believe I'm running 0.90 on that one.
In the same vein, is there any reason for me to worry that my hard copies wouldn't work in the future?  Say I put them in a safe deposit box and then died.  Would my kids be able to use the same codes to recover my bitcoins in Armory 16.8.0 in 15 years?

It should always be backwards compatible but you should keep the old installers saved. But it's open source, anyone can make a tool to parse.

Now your offline must be updated I think after .90.1

Thanks for the quick response.  So my paper backups should be good forever but keep old versions of the software just in case.  Cool.
I just checked and I'm running 0.90-beta on my offline computer.  You're saying I should be at version 0.90.1 or higher for compatibility?
Is this something that will need to be continually updated or it's due to a one time change?

Well the offline transfer protocol changed that's why it's needed. It was changed to add support for mutli sig. It shouldn't happen too often. You'll get a notification when you try to do an offline transaction. Try it without actually broadcasting.

OK thanks.  I'm now stuck in dependency hell as my offline computer doesn't have the necessary versions of the libraries necessary and isn't connected to the internet.  I seem to remember going through this last time.


Crap yeah you need to update to do transactions. But no rush unless you need to send.

Yeah no need to send anything from here.  I'll just go through the motions and not have to worry about it again for awhile.
