I guess I would just install the Windows Armory client and keep it offline.
There's nothing special about the offline bundle then?

The offline bundle is the same code and binaries with the extra packages to get Armory running on the target OS. There is no such concept on Windows, just use the Windows package and keep the computer offline at all times.

So you're saying I would need to install all of those packages if I went with Wheezy or Jessie?

Damn, if that's the case, maybe I will just go with Windows. At least I wouldn't have to struggle with an OS I know nothing about. It just seems like the more packages I install, the more dependency problems pop up.

Thanks again, goatpig. You really are legendary like it says under your username!

Err, let me come out and say that I think Ubuntu is not my OS of choice for about anything. I suggest you use Debian wheezy, you'll have a lot less trouble, you won't have all those nasty Ubuntu subversion mismatches. Wheezy has some old locked packages but at least they are compatible across minor versions. You can also go with Jessie if you want more recent code.

If the ordeal is beyond your tolerance level, just go with Windows.

You don't need SWIG if you're not gonna build from source, my bad.

The packages you need for a full offline install are (on top of Debian, screw Ubuntu):

I am using 12.04.3 because that was the exact version specified the last time Armory published instructions on how to do the offline install. etotheipi mentions 12.04+ when he listed the 93.3 packages, but I didn't know what "+" meant so I stuck to 12.04.3. That's what I had been running before I screwed it all up.

I went to the website you gave me and was able to find 12.04 (Precise) versions for all eight of the packages you listed. I carried them over to my offline machine and added them to the offline bundle folder. Six of the packages were new and two replaced existing but identically-named packages. I selected and collected the packages by hand instead of using dpkg or apt-get -d as you mentioned (I run Windows on my main machine). Then I ran the install script.

Well, we had even more errors this time (see log below). They seem to be either version mismatches, or failures because a prerequisite in the install file did not get created. A lot of them are now requiring 4.9 but finding 4.8 or 4.4, which I don't understand. I think I'd be in good shape if I could figure out how to get the right version numbers.

Well, my brain hurts so I'm going to hang it up for the night.

Again, many thanks for your help! I really thought we had it this time!

You have to get the packages for your install, not just any ubuntu repo. I'm guessing you're using 14.xx LTS? The packages that come with our offline bundle are targeted at precise (12.04 LTS). If you are using trusty, replace every package in there with trusty equivalents.

These are the packages that you need to run Armory:

Quote
pyqt4-dev-tools swig libqtcore4 libqt4-dev python-qt4 python-dev python-twisted python-psutil

You can search for them here:

http://packages.ubuntu.com

If you are using the same OS on your online machine, there is a dpkg command to list dependencies (I don't remember what it was but I had to use it for the offline pi bundle). You should build a script using that to list all the packages you need and save the names. Then you can run apt-get -d [package names] to download the packages. Then take the whole thing over to your offline machine and run the usual dpkg -i ./*.deb

Or just download the install DVDs and use those as your apt-get source.

EDIT: there's also apt-offline, but I'm not familiar with it.

That command had three errors:
Unable to locate pyqt4-dev-tools
package libqt-dev  has no installation candidate
package python-dev has no installation candidate

As far as I could tell, the install had the same errors as before.

sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb apparently does the same as the "cmd.sh > output.txt 2>&1" shown in the post prior to yours, but anyway that gave me the list of error messages.

The first dependency was easy - libconfig-file-perl was not installed so I went online and found that file and added it to the offline bundle folder, one problem down.

The next one I identified a missing package, downloaded it and that helped.

Now when I look at the remaining errors, most them are saying they depend on a file with version 4.8 but version 4.4 is installed. I can't find where the 4.4 versions are - they aren't in the offline bundle folder anyway.

Here is what those errors look like:
"libqt4-help depends on libqt4-sql (= 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.Cool; however:
      Version of libqt4-sql on system is 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.4."

So how do I find the version 4.4s and replace them with 4.8s? They aren't in the offline bundle folder, so are they already installed somewhere?

I heard back from support and they told me this:
"Your best bet is to download the Ubuntu install DVD and add them as source in sources.list. Then try to install Armory's dependencies:
sudo apt-get install pyqt4-dev-tools libqtcore4 libqt4-dev python-qt4 python-dev python-twisted python-psutil"

I don't understand that or know how to do it. I found sources.list, but it's entries pointed to URLs, and what exactly am I supposed to add to it anyway?

Thanks for your help!

Open your terminal
cd to the folder with all the packages
sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb

You should see a bunch of errors, and at the end the name of the packages that failed. Now you can try these packages one at a time to figure out why they are failing (sudo dpkg -i package_name), but most likely they are all missing the same 1-2 dependencies. Scroll up through the dpkg output to figure out what you are missing. Then look for these packages on the relevant Ubuntu repo (make sure you match arch and version) , bring the packages over to your offline machine, put then in the offline bundle folder and run the first dpkg command again.

Dang it, I spoke too soon - the log I created did not capture any error messages, just the "unpacking" and "preparing to replace" lines (see below). I can see what happened but I can't see what went wrong.

There must be another way to do this. Maybe I should let it "Run" instead of "Run in terminal".

Back to the drawing board.

It worked, thank you! I added > log.txt to the sudo command in the script itself.
Now I just need to figure out what I'm looking at and what to do about it.
At least I made some progress and have a direction to pursue!

Hey thanks for the reply goatpig!

I understand what you said, and I will do that. I have an obstacle to getting started, however.

I don't know how to capture the output of the install script so I can see what the exact errors are and identify the problems. Can you (or anyone ) tell me how to do that? I assume I could pipe the standard output to a file, but I can't see where/how to do so. It would be trivial to write a .BAT file in Windows!  Alternatively, I need to be able to pause the PC during the execution of the script.

A question - doesn't the package contain everything needed to cover all dependencies or are there non-Armory prerequisites  that don't exist on my machine? I just can't understand why I'm apparently the only person running into this.

It's obvious that I need to learn Ubuntu to get good at fixing problems like this, I just don't have the time (or the brainpower)!

Thanks again!

i dont know armory install, but with linux you pipe commands like this

cmd.sh > output.txt # you have all output in output.txt now
cmd.sh | less # you see the messages on the screen and can navigate with the arrow keys

hope that helps

If you have dependency issues, single them out and download them from your online machine. You can also try to download the Ubuntu DVDs and add those as sources as a fix. Not sure they have what you need but chances are they do.

Update: I hadn't gotten any help so I thought I would get a clean start. I bought a cheap laptop, formatted the drive and installed Ubuntu 12.04.3 32-bit and Armory 93.3 32 bit (the combination that worked fine on my old PC.)

I ran into the same darn problem when I did that as I had on the other machine! Also tried 92.3, no luck.

Next I loaded 64-bit flavors of Ubuntu and Armory 93.3 and got the same results - dependency errors of some kind.

I don't get it. This new laptop is much more powerful than the old PC I had been using. I did clean installs of the OS and Armory, 32 and 64 bit.

It's going to be hard to get my coin out of cold storage without bringing my private key online if I can't get this fixed.

I opened a support ticket, but if anybody can shed any light at all on this, I would be very grateful. I have no idea what to try next.

I missed this:

Quote from: etotheipi on October 29, 2015, 04:53:17 PM
Also includes a correction path to fix non-compliant signatures when broadcasting transactions signed by older versions of Armory. Thus, offline systems do not need to be updated, as long as the online system is.

and I tried into install the 93.3 offline Ubuntu 12.04 bundle (armory_0.93.3_offline_ubuntu_12.04-32.tar.gz).

It did not install successfully. I could not catch the error messages as they scrolled by (I don't know how to capture the output from the install script) but they seemed to involve dependency problems.

After finding out I didn't need to install 93.3, I tried to reinstall 92.3 (yup, 92.3) but I ran into apparently the same errors.

I doubled the RAM in this old PC and ran Memtest, that all looked good. There is plenty of disk space.

Can anyone suggest what I should try next?
