Armory crashes for me also as soon as it gets 100% sync'd with the network.  Is there a debug log I can send the devs?

This is the win7 crash notes for what it's worth.

Are you syncing with a wallet loaded?

I get a crash on Windows 7 pretty much as soon as I try to start the program, with the testing version.

0.90-beta runs fine for me on Windows 7.

Rebuild your DB. We use a different leveldb block size in this version and that can mess up existing DBs.


I totally forgot about that!  Yes, we modified some DB parameters to improve performance of building and scanning, and it's necessarily incompatible with the old databases.   You will have to use "Help"->"Rebuild & Rescan Databases"

On windows 7 I cannot get the new version to run without crashing.  I tried deleting the appdata folder but it always crashes after synchronizing with network. .88 is working on this machine (kinda, crashes every couple days).

I can confirm that network syncs are MUCH faster using the testing git branch on a box with a puny CPU (AMD E-350). Bravo! Startup time is now about a minute down from an hour.

Oh, and just curious, did you run Alan's build or roll your own? If the latter, try Alan's. I believe it was built under 10.8. If you're still seeing stability issues, let me know.

I used Alan's, I think it is more useful to test his builds than my own - there could be things that only works when compiled on your own machine.

Picobit, just curious, what happens when you do a plain paper backup? I admit that I didn't do a lot of test prints at home. (Time to invest in a cheap laser printer, I guess.) That said, my printouts worked fine, but it's certainly possible I missed something or users are subject to conditions that don't apply to me. Oh, and which version of OS X are you running? I did all my test prints on 10.9.1.
Hi,

I am running OS X version 10.9.1.  It looks like a stability thing - now I cannot reproduce the lock-up, but in stead I can reach the OS X print dialog sometimes, sometimes I get a crash along the way.  When I reach the Print dialog it is hit or miss whether it is responsive or not.  I get random crashes without anything appearing in the log file (I monitor it with 'tail -f').  We have previously had some test builds with this instability, I think it is related to a bug in Qt, probably building on OS X 10.8 is a workaround.  There seems to be something horribly wrong with Qt on OS X 10.9. :-(

Yeah, Qt4 is a bit of a mess, especially on Mavericks. (You should've seen the builds before my workarounds were implemented. Yuck!) We're looking into solutions and workarounds.

Mine was built on 10.9. I meant to do it on the 10.8 VM, since it supposedly more reliable.  But I was in a hurry before I left town, and totally forgot to boot the VM.  When I get back I'll try a 10.8 build

Hey everyone. Thanks for testing out the OS X build! It's much appreciated. Smiley I'm glad that the code is a much smoother experience for you guys. It's not bug-free, I know, but we'll fix them in time. Just send in logs and we'll figure it out.

Hello, I don't want to stir any panic but I recently downloaded Bitcoin-QT and Bitcoin Armory from legit sites. Bitcoin-QT finally completed downloadng the blockchain so when I open up Armory to start syncing the database, my anti-virus Avast system is showing a bunch of infections:

Infection: VBS:Bicololo-IU [Trj]
File: /Users/xxx/Library/Application Support/Armory/databases/leveldb_blkdata/025281.sst
Process: /Application/Armory.app/Content/MacOS/Python

So what is this? Has anyone seen it? This trojan looks pretty bad, is it a false positive? How did this happen?


It's a false positive, I've seen it before and investigated. And a VBS (Visual Basic Script) virus in an Armory .sst file wouldn't even make sense, it's not like Armory would be executing VB script it finds randomly in the blockchain.

Idk about new version but current Windows doesn't always honor my secs and memory for new wallet. Sometimes it's randomly replaced. I noticed rejected wallets being created during that time.

And I just wanted to test one more feature.  Bang!

I wanted to try making a 2-of-2 paper backup of a wallet I rarely use (no funds in it).  When I presses Print all Fragments, a popup warned me that an error had occurred and that printing would be aborted.  And Armory then opened a blank window, and froze.  I had to force-quit it.

The log:
Code:

EDIT:

I tried again with the same wallet.  Same result.  Then with another wallet, and it worked fine.  Except that the old Print-dialog-not-working-on-Mac problem is back: The system print popup is unresponsive.
