deleted /bitcoin folder (with its subfolders) and re-installed. Same error.

I will say that something just didn't seem right about the initial Bitcoin install. It never created a wallet.dat file, I searched high and low, even used the Ubuntu file search. I thought, well maybe it's only created on first use. So I sent 0.01 BTC from my windows box to Ubuntu. Never arrived. That was about the time of the freeze-up too. Now I've got a 0/unconfirmed transaction in my windows Bitcoin (whatever becomes of those orphaned trans?).

Can I just delete and re-run the script? There was nothing in the /bitcoin folder I needed. In fact I don't think it ever created a wallet.dat file

Yea, if you dont have any coins in your wallet.dat, just rm -r ~/.bitcoin and move on with it (though remember, that will delete all your coins so...)

OK I had a system lock-up necessitating a hard reset. Now Bitcoin won't start:

EXCEPTION: 22DbRunRecoveryException DbEnv::open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery bitcoin in AppInit()

Can I just delete and re-run the script? There was nothing in the /bitcoin folder I needed. In fact I don't think it ever created a wallet.dat file

If you delete wallet.dat you lose all your bitcoins. You can delete everything in .bitcoin but NOT Wallet.dat and Bitcoin.conf

I don't understand what your saying, Walidzohair. What's the "sp"? EDIT: oh right, spesmilo.
If you're having trouble, it may be because my script is fetching the very latest sources of wxwidgets. But I can't seem to find a complete archive of the daily snapshots. They only seem to keep them for 3 days so I can't link to one that is known to be functional.

Also, I edited my previous post so it would compile bitcoind too.

Here is a script that will do absolutely everything - including downloads - in order to get a compiled version of bitcoin working in Natty (with the GUI fixed of course): http://pastebin.com/JLxKKpuq

Thanks a lot man for your time,

This what I call a true piece of work and help.

I will try it and post either way

did not work from first time and by the moment i discovered i need to bash it instead of sh it. i decided to go throw it manually and yet after a painful long compilation of the wx it works with an assertion error (as usual) .. i will give the other sp something trial but i will stick with the bitcoin Sad

If i ever try the sp somthing I will post back here too.

Hi,

I think wxwidget is one big problem to bitcoin, why don't try using spesmilo gui for bitcoin ?, you can find it using the search command in the forum.

I will like create one package from spesmilo.

Greeting's.

Nope thanks for your efforts but this time i will stick to bitcoin client.

wolciph, thanks for the script; it worked!
I notice it installed to a 'user/bitcoin/bitcoin-bitcoin-12345e2' folder, that no 'daemon' folder was created, and with no bitcoind executable.
When I use the "-server" option, I get a Warning about setting rpcpassword in the configuration file: /home/user/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf' even though I did create that file.

I can't get it running in server mode.

EDIT: I got Bitcoin working in server mode by creating a 'bitcoin.conf' file within that 'bitcoin-bitcoin-12345e2' subfolder and then launching with this command: ./bitcoin -server -rpcuser=user -rpcpassword=pass

CPU mines at over 5 Mhash/s. Now I will attempt to get a GPU miner going.

THANK YOU.

I got it to work for the most part, but eventually I get an error (after the programs are installed, but before it makes a bitcoin directory)
it says:

I dunno if it is me the unlucky one or if there is something wrong with my system .. but now after i deleted every thing in my .bitcoin folder except the wallet.dat .. when i run the program it is fine and trying to pull the block chain and every thing is OK

BUT

when i click on the sent tab it gives an error that says

An Assertion failed!

./src/comoon/evtloopcmn.cpp(755):asser "assert failure"
failed in Yield(): wxYield called recursivley

it just continue if i press continue

finally it is my thrid day and not being able to pull all the chain block yet .. is that normal ?

and here is the error i get when i try to compile with sudo make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=

also the same error when I try to compile with the USE_PNP:=0 commented in the makefile.unix

or just use make -f makefile.unix

No idea here. If you just build with make -f makefile.unix, which is equivalent to make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=0 do you get any errors (that is the proper way to build if you want UPnP support). If you build with make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP= the compiler should automatically optimize out any code which references fUseUPnP as fHaveUPnP is set statically and constantly to false. What compiler are you using and do you have any kind of CXXFLAGS set at compiletime?

Quote from: walidzohair on May 04, 2011, 05:41:11 AM

I am guessing the problem is "To compile with UPnP support, install miniupnpc and compile after setting USE_UPNP" which I have no clue how to do it.

Sorry, poorly worded (shame on me), should compile with UPnP by default.

Quote from: walidzohair on May 04, 2011, 05:41:11 AM

although I used this thread as reference https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/patch-build-without-upnp-6942

Really have no idea why this thread exists, from what I can tell, it is people who didn't know that you can use USE_UPNP= to unset it (which, to be fair, I didn't know either until I was told)

Quote from: walidzohair on May 04, 2011, 05:53:35 AM

is it even new ? it is the same as in the maverick netbook version!

Exactly what I thought when I first saw it. Something like "They better change this crap before putting it as default on all desktops" but nope, they just left it.

Quote from: walidzohair on May 04, 2011, 05:53:35 AM

if that all what is the new release about then someone should really leave his ass kicked.

To be fair, there is a ton of upgraded packages and changed default applications (which I all tend to agree with).

Solution 1

now it works from http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/ubuntu-11.04/ for me .. still downloading the block chain and it shows my balance as 0 although it have all my previous transactions listed (with 0 confirmations) - is that normal ? until i get the whole block chain again ?

The Solution

For building with the wxwidgets-trunk, I have downloaded, compiled and installed the miniupnpc as indicated in the build-unix.txt in bitcoin source code.

and now it gives a new error

obj/db.o: In function `Unserialize':
/home/walid/Downloads/src/bitcoin-trunk/serialize.h:136: undefined reference to `fUseUPnP'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [bitcoin] Error 1

when I try to compile with make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=

also the same error when I try to compile with the USE_PNP:=0 commented in the makefile.unix

or just use make -f makefile.unix

I am guessing the problem is "To compile with UPnP support, install miniupnpc and compile after setting USE_UPNP" which I have no clue how to do it.

although I used this thread as reference https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/patch-build-without-upnp-6942

Any help would be appreciated since it is the really the right way to compile it yourself or downloaded from a public repository.

Thanks

It is hell right now for me .. trying a 100 solution and yet bitcoin is not working for natty.

these are the things I have tried

1) building with wxwidgets-trunk as in these steps http://lickthesalt.com/2010/08/19/compiling-bitcoin-on-ubuntu-10-04-karmic/

and as much as it was painful specially the trick of no file system translation ( --fstrans=no for the checkinstall to work on natty), I finally hit the wall in the last step trying to compile the butcoin (after painful sucessful compilation of wxWidgets). the error message for last step is net.cpp:8:32: fatal error: miniupnpc/miniwget.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

This means you need to install miniupnpc

2) trying the 0.3.20 and 0.3.21 and the nightly build at http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/ubuntu-11.04/ resulted in the funkiest response ever i have found on a linux system as I get these two error message boxes (windows-like)
bitcoin
EXCEPTION: 11dbException

Bitcoin
Dbc::get:Input.output error
bitcoin in CMyapp::OnunhandledException()

- the screenshots could not be attached because the download folder is full here ? - and finally no client and no client process! strange that I used to have the process sleeping but no gui.

Try deleting everything but wallet.dat in your ~/.bitcoin folder and make sure you have the right architecture downloaded (64-bit vs 32-bit)

It just wont work and they complain it is a bug in the bitcoin code. (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/128).

Any advise ?

This is a problem with wxWidgets, works fine if you compile with wxWidgets-trunk. For those who cannot/will not do that, the bitcoin-gui 0.3.21 binaries are posted at: http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/ubuntu-11.04/. Works with Ubuntu classic and the new crap. Just download, right-click -> permissions -> check the "execute" box and be on your way.

Technical stuff:
For reference, this binary works fine on 10.10 as well, I suppose we should be building this binary by default instead.
Appears to be http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13146, but doesnt work if you simply apply http://trac.wxwidgets.org/changeset/67496. I probably didn't look into the matter far enough, but it works with trunk, so I don't really care to.

I made the mistake of upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04 and can't seem to get the graphical client running. Neither the released binary nor the binary I compiled myself will show the graphical interface. The debug.log file indicates that at least the IRC communications are working.

Has anyone been able to run the graphical client on 11.04?

Yes it is a BIG Mistake to upgrade to natty ... bitcoin is just one of my problems... skype too

Interesting. I am running Natty. I actually did try to build from source first and ran into some strange problem and so went with the precompiled binaries. There might be a couple differences: 1) I'm using Xubuntu, so I'm running under XFCE4 which is unaffected by all this Unity upheaval. 2) Following the directions, I did succeed in building WxWidgets. But I take it that that library is built into the the precompiled binaries:

When will there be official binaries out there? I don't want to trust some binaries uploaded by someone one some server Undecided

Sadly not till the next version I'm afraid. Gavin doesn't have time right now and the build system is being redone for 0.4.0 (think distributed builds by many people so you don't have to trust any individual party). Building bitcoin yourself, however, isn't as bad as it seems. Follow the instructions in build-unix.txt and ask if you have any questions. (or you could trust me, of course, but even I wouldn't recommend that)

Sorry to say that, but I like the new interface.

Maybe it is time to migrate the GUI from wxWidgets to Qt. How hard would that be?

This is a problem with wxWidgets, works fine if you compile with wxWidgets-trunk. For those who cannot/will not do that, the bitcoin-gui 0.3.21 binaries are posted at: http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/bitcoin-nightly/ubuntu-11.04/. Works with Ubuntu classic and the new crap. Just download, right-click -> permissions -> check the "execute" box and be on your way.

Wanted to say that this works perfectly.

I was having the same problem as everyone else upon upgrade to 11.04. So I'm jazzed to have everything up and running again. Thanks for posting that.

Not a chance, just upgraded the full desktop to 11.04, hate Unity. Also had to downgrade NVIDIA driver for mining (~~260 appears to work best for those who might be interested~~ different X server version, 260 doesn't work and miners use 100% cpu), and add

Code:

style "default-style"
{
GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0
GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0
}

class "GtkWidget" style "default-style"

to ~/.gtkrc-2.0 to make those anoying resize squares go away in most applications.

Unity seems only appropriate for netbooks to me.

After compiling with latest wxWidget daily snapshot, I can confirm the GUI is working fine here.

I hate it. It takes up space and I find the new menu system a real pain. I just switched to the classic interface after a few minutes.

Technical stuff:
For reference, this binary works fine on 10.10 as well, I suppose we should be building this binary by default instead.
Appears to be http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13146, but doesnt work if you simply apply http://trac.wxwidgets.org/changeset/67496. I probably didn't look into the matter far enough, but it works with trunk, so I don't really care to.

I am quite sure this is a bug in bitcoin and not in Ubuntu since the same thing seams to happen with other window managers. See this bug report: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/128

Workarounds/Ideas:

- Login with Ubuntu Classic
- Remove Compiz/Disable Compiz
- Use bitcoind

Did you try any/all of these?

Well, right now my workaround is to just use the CLI via bitcoind.

I am having trouble running bitcoin on 11.04 x64. I tried a few different packages, and the tar.gz from bitcoin.org, but none work for me. I start the program, and nothing comes up (and no output to the console).

Any ideas?

I have no intention of dumping Unity solely to run bitcoin, and it appears from my experience and other reports that there is some problem between the two.

Can anyone suggest a workaround? Is anyone working on a fix?

I went a bit further and stripped compiz out entirely, logout/login with Ubuntu Classic and all is good on 11.04 now.

Everything seems to be working nicely now. I just had to go into classic mode and uninstall and reinstall the nvidia driver. Unity is pretty neat.

Yes, the gui stops coming up after the upgrade to 11.04 (Ubuntu Natty), unless I choose the Ubuntu Classic (no effects) option at the login screen.

Reinstalling (deleting the folder and unpacking the tarball again) changed nothing.

Edit: Here's the Launchpad bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/758398

Anyone else get burned with the upgrade? At first I all I could get was a black screen, but after a bit of mucking around, I could get to a classic desktop with an Nvidia driver that's active but not in use. It also boots up slower than with 10.10. I've been poking around the Ubuntu forums, but I'm still not sure what to do about it.

On Natty, I could get the Bitcoin client to show up in only Ubuntu classic (No effects) mode. It seems there is a problem with compiz in 11.04.

Yep, same problem here. Upgraded to Natty and now Bitcoin GUI doesn't come up anymore - neither in Unity nor in Gnome. Tried upgrading to 0.3.21 and recanning the blockchain but still no joy.

Bitcoind still shows my balance (fortunately!)

I made the mistake of upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04 and can't seem to get the graphical client running. Neither the released binary nor the binary I compiled myself will show the graphical interface. The debug.log file indicates that at least the IRC communications are working.

Has anyone been able to run the graphical client on 11.04?

Perhaps you need to re-install... Huh

The bitcoin client works on virtually any stable linux version... No matter what "release".
