Topic: Error opening block database 0.9.3 - log file data (Read 1275 times)
Seems you did not upgrade via the PPA. Why not? It helps putting things at the right location, to avoid things like you are experiencing.
A workaround could be to specify the bitcoin data directory when you run the executable from your Downloads folder. But cleaning up the mess would be better.
I'm looking for help on this issue:
Ubuntu 14.04 box
Any time I shutdown (with success, waiting) and re-open/reboot bitcoin-qt, I get the following error and then have to re-index. Very frustrating! ~24 hrs+
Originally I installed via the PPA what I guess was version 0.8.5
The I downloaded 0.9.3 as an upgrade...but
0.8.5 i think is what is installed to .bitcoin folder
0.9.3 is in a Downloads folder/bin/32/bitcoin-qt
If I run either, I always see the splash screen with 0.8.5
0.8.5 seems to be the icon on the Unbuntu launch bar
yet when I run cmd line on the 0.9.3 version to launch, I also see the 0.8.5 version
Either way, launching either method gives me the re-index issue.
I only have one log file in .bitcoin, which says:
Unacceptable log file /home/user/.bitcoin/database/log.0000000001: unsupported log version 17
Invalid log file: log.0000000001: Invalid argument
PANIC: Invalid argument
process-private: unable to find environment
process-private: unable to find environment
Can anyone help me figure out what to do to resolve this mess?
