A few of you commented that you experience continued corruption even with all the patches in Bitcoin OMG3. Gavin Andresen says it happens in Bitcoin master too. A bounty is now funded by Gavin and Litecoin Dev. Mac users, please consider adding to the bounty to increase incentive of someone to fix this sooner.

It appears that there may be more than one MacOS X corruption issue. It is difficult to know if any of them have been fixed when other issues still happen. Any detailed reports of corruption with Bitcoin 0.8.5 OMG3 specifically would be helpful to Bitcoin dev.

Yes thank you. Our Mac dev is looking into this.

Their is an issue on the current 0.8.5 mac version, there was like a menu that would pop up when you right clicked on the dock icon, this was so when it was hidden it would come back.

Now that bug has been reintroduced on this build. Love this build thou! Already used coin control!

gweedo,
Thank you for your report. We are unable to reproduce this bug on 10.6.8, 10.8.x, 10.9. Are you using our builds of Bitcoin-Qt OMG3 or building it yourself?
So I take it if I wanted to run with disablewallet=1 I'll have to build bitcoind from your git.
No binaries available for bitcoind for the Mac?
No binaries available for bitcoind for the Mac?
bitcoin.org does not distribute Mac bitcoind. 32bit Mac bitcoind 0.8 does not even build. 64bit does build but nobody distributes it.
The primary reason to use disablewallet is to reduce RAM use, which is mainly useful on small headless servers or VM's where you would use bitcoind instead of bitcoin-qt.
Gotcha. I'll stick with the OMG3 version of Bitcoin-qt then. My reason for looking for bitcoind for Mac was to get as high an efficiency rating as possible with my P2Pool node. Your version of Bitcoin-Qt has already reduced GetBlockTemplate Latency and has improved efficiency for my node noticeably.
So I take it if I wanted to run with disablewallet=1 I'll have to build bitcoind from your git.

I usually encountered the data corruption issue on starting up with Bitcoin-Qt only on reboots, which necessitated a rebuild of the local copy of the blockchain so eager to try this beta... but...
Downloaded the OMG3 version, and already encountered a problem.
I tried running it with disablewallet=1 in the bitcoin.conf, but it crashed on startup with the following crashlog:
(crashlog was too long to insert here even in code tags)
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11139673/crashlogBTCOMG3.rtf
I'm running it on a Mac Pro, 16GB Ram on OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
I'm also running concurrently with a P2Pool node, namecoind for merged mining, and BFGMiner.
When I comment out the disablewallet=1 in the bitcoin.conf it starts up fine, so I'll keep it this way for now, but would definitely prefer to run it with the wallet disabled.

Wait a minute, you experienced the data corruption issue with OMG3 specifically?
No, previously with the current non OMG Bitcoin-qt beta 0.8.5.
Haven't rebooted yet to see if it happens with your version.
Also the crash log linked has detailed system info for my Mac (system details are at the bottom of the crash log) and I mentioned in the post above it was a Mac Pro with 16GB ram on OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
One note about my Mac Pro that probably has no bearing but I'll list here anyway, it's actually an original Mac Pro 1,1 (first intel ones) that was hacked with Chameleon to have an EFI64 boot loader and smbios.plist to look like a Mac Pro 3,1 so I could install Mavericks. It still runs circles around many current MacBook Pro's and iMacs.

- Mac hardware?
- Brand/model of hard drive or SSD, especially if you replaced it with an after market drive

Hmm, disablewallet=1 mode is meant only for bitcoind. bitcoin-qt is a wallet by definition. It should probably refuse to run with an error message instead of crashing. Thanks for the report.
I have noticed that this happens to me only when my MacBook goes to sleep with Bitcoin-qt open. If I shut down Bitcoin-qt manually, everything works fine.

Are you one of the rare users who regularly experiences the data corruption with Bitcoin-Qt on Mac? We need testing of this build which includes two fsync patches and an upgrade to leveldb-1.13. Does it make the corruption problems go away? If you still experience corruption with OMG3, please report:

Went to check out the Binary downloads and the link in the original post is just showing blank directories for each OS version:
http://download1.rpmfusion.org/~warren/bitcoin-0.8.5-OMG3/
Are the binaries going to be available again anytime soon? Has anyone tested the Node Only/Disabled Wallet functionality with a local P2Pool node?

Oops. Linux binary copied into the correct folder now. Mac builds are done by another dev and hopefully will be available today. I acquired a Macbook to do it myself but need to figure out the build environment.

As a LTC dev shouldn't you have to create this for LTC first?
He did, basically he took the latest litecoin client and made it a bitcoin client.
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/qt/macdockiconhandler.mm
This is the code that needs to be merged into your client, this would allow for a menu when right clicking on the dock icon and choose to hide/show the gui window and has worked really well. Sorry I can't be more help then just pointing out this.

Do you know if BItcoin master currently has this issue for Mac? I am unable to test Mac.
If we reintroduced this problem by pulling a 0.9 patch, it's possible master has this issue now, or they subsequently fixed it with another patch.
No the current master branch doesn't have this issue.
