Bitcoin client stuck. Tried to rebuild whole blockchain, but it went up to that number and got stuck again.

Here's a screenshot: http://vvcap.net/db/2IR75OWyJj5AsUW7eo_i.htp

Any suggestions?

I just downloaded version 4.4.1.1 to try to reproduce your problem, but couldn't. Here's the beginning, and relevant mid-section of the debug.log file when I ran it on a machine which I hadn't used for a month or so:

Maybe you could show us yours? I tend to agree with Stephen that it's likely a disk space problem.

  • Yes... good idea. Why didn't I start with logging myself. Unfortunately I got logs shoved away. Let me try to reproduce it now, and I will share logs. I'm pretty certain it will lock up on that block, it was happening yesterday all day from multiple workstations. It's definitely not a space problem, but no idea how could I not think of examining log

  • It looks very stupid, but I cannot reproduce the problem anymore. Thanks for idea to look @ log, I guess this is as much as it gets at this point

The blockchain chews up well over a gigabyte of disk space. Are you running out of disk space?

  • 'Well over a gigabyte' sounds like the understatement of the year, lol.
