Hi all,

At this moment i have the 14.1 client installed and i take backups of the chain to backup up the progress because it keeps crashing because it cant read something or because the db is corrupt.
I tried a clean download too. same shit happens over and over.

any ideas?

i've got windows 10 64 bit and i figured i would run a fullnode too, just because.

The program has already crashed twice, with nothing remotely resembling a human friendly error message, like, what it was it could not read (or where). it just crashes with various very generic messages. This is the only program that crashes regularily on my pc and i have no idea why, because the error messages are too generic like "cannot read database"  hey! how about also writing on what drive, and in what dir, and what went wrong..

i don't feel like i would dare to trust this software with my bitcoins when it can't even bootstrap itself from the net, when it doesn't even seem to know itself why it crashes.
