error10 / bitcoin Goto Github PK

Hi, I installed bitcoin from your packages, ( bitcoin-0.9.2.1-1.fc20.x86_64 ) and when I try to launch bitcoin-qt, the splash screen appears, and then this message appears and the client will not start:

EXCEPTION: N5boost12interprocess22interprocess_exceptionE       
Permission denied       
bitcoin in Runaway exception

Hello.

Trying to get the bitcoind to run as a service I ran in to couple of problems, found work arounds and though you should be aware of these. This is all on CentOS 7.

1. PID file

Since the service is ran as the bitcoin user it can't create the PID file under /var/run nor /run. For some reason /etc/sysconfig/bitcoin was referring to /var/run and /usr/lib/systemd/system/bitcoin.service was pointing to /run which was also strange. So, I changed the /etc/sysconfig/bitcoin to:

PID_FILE="/var/lib/bitcoin/bitcoind.pid"

Also, this change had to be represented in /usr/lib/systemd/system/bitcoin.service, so I changed:

PIDFile=/var/lib/bitcoin/bitcoind.pid

1. Error: Specified data directory "$DATA_DIR" does not exist.

Seeing these messages in my /var/log/messages I went ahead and made some additional changes in the /usr/lib/systemd/system/bitcoin.service, namely the ExecStart line I changed to:

ExecStart=/usr/sbin/bitcoind -daemon -conf=${CONFIG_FILE} -datadir=${DATA_DIR} -pid=${PID_FILE} $OPTIONS

After these two changes I got everything running.

Hi,

can you update your RPMs to bitcoin 0.8.1?

Thanks
Bye

bitcoin-qt throws the following error upon startup using Fedora 18:
Unable to bind to port 8333 on this computer. Bitcoin is probably already running
Failed to listen on any port. Use -listen=0 if you want this.

Perhaps some other service is also using port 8333.

Workaround: Bitcoin is able to start calling 'bitcoin-qt -listen=0' from the command line, however Fedora throws the following warning:
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

Edit: Nevermind, please cancel this bug. Seems to have been an old version of bitcoin floating around on my system. Removed and reinstalled and it seemed to have fixed the issue.

Installed your repo without issues

Installed the bitcoin-server; yum install bitcoin-server without issues

it will not run:
