  selsta
  kiwi_96: What happens when you manually click on monerod.exe?
• 05:20
  kiwi_96
  I have not tried that
• 05:20
  selsta
  Try that.
• 05:24
  kiwi_96
  synching as we speak
• 05:25
  kiwi_96
  It doesnt pick up on on the last BC synch which was complete this morning? Currently it is only at 1% synch
• 05:26
  ndorf
  must be running with a different datadir
• 05:28
  kiwi_96
  I am new to this so I couldnt tell you. When upgrading I selected the folder that my old BC was located in. The new upgrade wanted to place the BC on a different directory. I just made it my old folder
• 05:30
  ndorf
  yeah. so you actually need to run monerod.exe from a CMD window, and pass it some arguments: monerod --data-dir "\path\to\your\folder"

• 05:31
  ndorf
  yeah you probably want to stop that one
• 05:31
  kiwi_96
  this is running right now when I clicked on monerorod.exe
• 05:31
  kiwi_96
  ok
• 05:31
  kiwi_96
  by closing it?
• 05:31
  ndorf
  yep
• 05:32
  kiwi_96
  done. The GUI is still saying "synching"
• 05:32
  kiwi_96
  GUI disconected to
• 05:32
  ndorf
  i would close that too, though maybe you don't need to
• 05:33
  kiwi_96
  close GUI or no?
• 05:33
  ndorf
  you know how to use the CMD window?
• 05:33
  ndorf
  i would close it
• 05:33
  kiwi_96
  GUI closed. I do not know how to use CMD window
• 05:34
  kiwi_96
  googled and have CMD window open
• 05:34
  kiwi_96
  C:\Users\Boanerges>
• 05:35
  kiwi_96
  with cursor blinking at end
• 05:35
  ndorf
  ok, try this command: monerod --data-dir "\path\to\your\folder"
• 05:35
  ndorf
  replace the path with your real blockchain location.
• 05:35
  ndorf
  you can copy paste it from the location bar of a folder window
• 05:39
  kiwi_96
  Like this: C:\Users\Boanerges>monerod --data-dir"\Users\Boanerges\Downloads\Crypt Keeper\Monero\lmdb"
• 05:39
  ndorf
  almost
• 05:39
  selsta
  path to monerod.exe
• 05:39
  ndorf
  remove the \lmdb from the end so it just ends in "Monero"
• 05:40
  ndorf
  if it says command not found, then what selsta said, yeah.
• 05:40
  kiwi_96
  C:\Users\Boanerges>monerod --data-dir"\Users\Boanerges\Downloads\Crypt Keeper\Monero"
• 05:40
  kiwi_96
  Is that good
• 05:40
  ndorf
  try it
• 05:40
  selsta
  also a space between data-dir and the patch
• 05:40
  selsta
  path*
• 05:40
  ndorf
  oops, that too
• 05:41

• 05:42
  ndorf
  yeah, you will need the full path to monerod.exe like selsta said, sorry
• 05:44
  kiwi_96
  C:\Users\Boanerges>monerod --data-dir "\Program Files\Monero GUI Wallet"
• 05:44
  kiwi_96
  So like this
• 05:44
  ndorf
  nono
• 05:45
  ndorf
  more like "\Program Files\Monero GUI Wallet\monerod.exe" --data-dir "\"\Users\Boanerges\Downloads\CryptKeeper\Monero"

  ndorf
  sorry, typo on my part
• 05:46
  ndorf
  get rid of the \" before "Users
• 05:47
  ndorf
  you can press Up on your keyboard, to edit the same command again
• 05:47
  ndorf
  without retyping it
• 05:48
  selsta
  "\Program Files\Monero GUI Wallet\monerod.exe" --data-dir "\Users\Boanerges\Downloads\CryptKeeper\Monero"
• 05:48
  selsta
  this should be it
• 05:48
  kiwi_96
  synch started
• 05:49
  ndorf
  hopefully it will now show the percentage you expect
• 05:49
  kiwi_96
  )%

  kiwi_96
  0%
• 05:49
  kiwi_96
  1%
• 05:49
  ndorf
  hmm, you're sure Downloads\CryptKeeper\Monero is where your existing blockchain was?
• 05:50
  ndorf
  when you right click on the lmdb folder therein and press properties, what is the total size?
• 05:50
  kiwi_96
  Thats what I thought. It was a big ass file
• 05:51
  kiwi_96
  87.5gb

• 05:51
  selsta
  The difference is the space
• 05:52
  selsta
  "\Program Files\Monero GUI Wallet\monerod.exe" --data-dir "\Users\Boanerges\Downloads\Crypt Keeper\Monero"
• 05:52
  selsta
  try that
• 05:52

  you should run that tool on an offline computer though

  went to do my weekly monero chain sync which failed, downloaded 16.0.3, also fails with simply "Bus error", has something changed?
• 17:43
  promet
  barring the occasional version upgrade, monerod has never simply failed like this for me before.
• 17:43
  asymptotically
  the only time i've ever seen sigbus was when i tried replacing a library or executable while the program was running
• 17:44
  promet
  asymptotically, thanks, yes "is weird"
• 17:44
  selsta
  promet: bus error usually means corrupted blockchain
• 17:44
  selsta
  is it on an external drive?
• 17:44
  promet
  selsta, yes
• 17:44
  selsta
  did you plug it out during sync?
• 17:44
  selsta
  this could lead to corrupted blockchain
• 17:45
  promet
  selsta, i did not, my machine is getting a little long in the tooth though, and i have been noticing some usb bus "quirkiness" though
• 17:45
  promet
  maybe it could be that
• 17:46
  selsta
  in general having the blockchain on external drives is a bit less stable due to usb stuff, plugging out during sync etc.
• 17:47
  promet
  selsta, thanks very much for the feedback. I will look into this.
• 17:47
  selsta
  I worry you will have to resync from scratch to fix this :/ If you have enough disk space you can also make backups of the chain in case this happens again in the future.
• 17:48
  promet
  selsta, I do have a backup on another external drive, which will be my next troubleshooting step. thanks again.
