It looks like Armory is failing to connect to Bitcoin Core. Can you try using our latest testing build, available from here: https://github.com/goatpig/BitcoinArmory/releases/tag/v0.96.0.3-testing

Doesn't work. Do you also have a version for libstdc 4.9?

Code:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of armory:
 armory depends on libstdc++6 (>= 5.2); however:
  Version of libstdc++6:amd64 on system is 4.9.2-10.

Thanks for your reply, I did as suggested: again, Bitcoin-Core is working fine, at the same time Armory (online) is stuck "Preparing Databases". Here are the logs:

Start Armory and Core separately. First start Bitcoin Core. Then start Armory. In Armory, you will have to go to File > Settings and uncheck the box labeled "Let Armory start Bitcoin Core automatically". Then restart Armory.

Can you also post your log files (armorylog.txt and dbLog.txt)?

Re: Cannot start Armory on Linux Debian, stuck on "Preparing Databases"
July 02, 2017, 10:25:26 AM
#1
Hi, I am using Debian, and so far I have been using Bitcoin-Core 0.14.1 based on QT 5.7.1, it works fine, my /home/myuser/.bitcoin folder is over 140 GiB, growing. I have a few BTC/cent just to play with.

I downloaded and installed Armory 0.96. The first time I start it (both the online and the offline version) I get prompted to create and backup a new wallet. Fine with that, even the paper backup works fine.

However, then Armory gets stuck on "Preparing Databases", the /home/myuser/.armory folder keeps growing, and as long as Armory is in this state I cannot start Bitcoin-Core (complains that the database is already being used). Sometimes, Armory "crashes" after a bit (i.e., the Armory window closes, and pgrep does not find it), but still I cannot use Bitcoin-Core (because there is a bitcoin process still running in background, I guess bitcoind invoked by Armory).

Two questions:
1) is it normal? Should I just wait? How long?
2) how large will the .armory directory grow yet? I thought Armory was using the same blockchain stored in .bitcoin, right? I do *not* have to expect to download other 140 GiB of blocks, right?

Next to that, thanks for the great software, looks like really, really cool!
