So here is where I am... it looks like my wallet.dat file was corrupt.
After restoring it from a backup -- everything is fine and the qt is no longer crashing!
I was letting the wallet download the blockchain and it seemed to stall out with about 30,000 blocks left.
I followed the instructions on P17 of this thread and that got me closer with only ~2,700 blocks remaining.
It's just extremely slow at this point -- I wonder if the wallet is trying to resolve forks.

Good information. I have not done a full block chain download in a while. I am going to try it on a fresh computer with a fresh wallet see if I have any issues.
I am glad you are back in the game..
Just grabbed the newest version 1.2.2.3 from githup. No config, no special parms, just doubled clicked the exe and a few hours later it was all synced up.

I CAN FINALLY POST IN BITCOINTALK!!! And, of course, I chose my first post to be in the hobo nickels thread
@wmikrut: I'm envious of your HBN balance. I may be breaking 4 digits today, but I definitely got on the bandwagon later than you did (unless you are the guy with 10Mh/s on my pool
)

December 14, 2013, 02:08:21 PM
if someone is willing to test for me i have a pool up at hbn.cryptopools.com
It connects, but you are still downloading the block chain. I will try again once that is complete.

Completed 1.2.2.3 tonight.
- Added fmintonly bool to rpc. This will block rpc send coins commands if set to true. Should this be set for GUI? I think yes..
- Added addnode to rcp.
- Fixed Splash screen.
I'll package this up tomorrow and unofficial release.

any ideas what is going on?

Hi ryanb, is this the win client or the mac client? How many peers do you have connected? What is your block count and diff?
that is on windows
today i received a payment from the pool and not showing on my end and the wallet showing that it is in sync, now i am restarting it to se if it needs to resync
payment shows up after restart and difficulty is

{
"proof-of-work" : 0.45003811,
"proof-of-stake" : 0.00390625,
"search-interval" : 0
}
it was showing that it was in sync but when i restarted it download 128 blocks
Ok, you seem to be in good shape. How many peers do you keep connected? I keep 6-8 and I mine and stake without issue. Do you use IRC?
I have 18 active connections and i use IRC
I do occasionally have difficulty catching up, if my internet goes out for a spell. Still an issue?

So far so good! 
I have ~ 132,000 blocks left to sync.
I haven't been able to get this far in a while.
Looks like my actual wallet.dat file was corrupt.
Good think I keep backups!

Good advice. I keep weekly backups of my wallets, especially staking wallets. As new private keys will get added.

The wallet's getblockcount reports 287403 blocks when it failed.
I am going to kill it and let it run again and see if I am 'stuck' on a block.

Wmikrut. I'm not sure what is causing your issues off hand? have you been able to get fully up-to-date yet?
To me it does sound like some type of wallet corruption. If it does crash again please try the following.
1) Navigate to %appdata%/HoboNickels directory
2) Rename your wallet.dat wallet-bad.dat
3) Startup the client with the parm -usewallet=""
4) After you are fully synced up. Let it sit for a while and see if it crashes. If not got 5, if so please report back here.
5) Using the load button, load up your wallet-bad.dat
6) If encrypted goto debug window/console and type usewallet bad walletpassphrase
7) At this point I would send your coins from bad to ~Default. Do a few test sends first.
As always be sure to keep backups of your wallet.dat and other wallets offline as well.
Please let me know if you have any success.
You know... I haven't tried restoring my wallet.dat file from my backup location.
Let me try that first... if I still have issues, I will try what you have listed above.
Thank you for the assistance in this... it is very much appreciated!
